AIG Global Real Estate sold three office properties in Southwest Florida with a relatively low combined occupancy rate for about $102 per square foot.

The buyer, Beverly, Massachusetts-based Brookwood Financial Partners LLC, paid $43.2 million for the 421,300-square-foot office portfolio.

The portfolio occupancy rate is 83.8 percent, which Brookwood plans to increase by investing about $3 million to improve the portfolio properties.
