Qriar is led by Luís Felipe Neiva Silveira, the founder and CEO of 2Futures Holding. 2Futures Holding invests in real estate development, financial credit companies and technology firms, according to LinkedIn.
The 40,000-square-foot lot last sold in May 2014 for $10.5 million. It hit the market months later for $19.5 million. After a number of price reductions, it was most recently asking $13.5 million in May of this year.
Jill Hertzberg of Coldwell Banker represented the sellers, while Bento Queiroz of Compass represented the buyer.
