Records show Boca Islands East secured a $10.1 million loan from Hunt Real Estate Capital to purchase the property, which includes apartments and office space. It was built in 1966.

Cardone’s company, Realm 102, paid $12.5 million for the 1.2-acre site in 2015.

Cardone has acquired multifamily properties across the country, including in South Florida. In October, Cardone Capital paid about $90 million for the 346-unit Atlantic Delray Apartments in Delray Beach at 14050 Pacific Point Place. His Cardone Acquisitions paid $13.5 million for an office building in Aventura in July.
