Vitamin mogul Andrew Lessman just swallowed some supplemental income, after selling his second waterfront Miami Beach estate in less than six months.
Lessman, who in 1979 founded the Henderson, Nevada-based vitamin company that became ProCaps Laboratories, sold the house at 835 East Dilido Drive on the Venetian Islands for $20.3 million.
Property records show his AML Investment IX LLC sold the property to a revocable trust managed by attorney Eric Grabois. Lessman’s same entity sold the adjacent property in November for nearly $17 million to Banir Ganatra, the CEO of Americor, a debt settlement company. Lessman also sold a unit at the Four Seasons Residences at the Surf Club in early 2020 for $6.2 million.
In the latest sale, Oren Alexander of Douglas Elliman represented Lessman, and Jeff Miller of One Sotheby’s International Realty brought the buyer, according to Redfin.
The buyer financed the purchase with a $12.2 million loan from J.P. Morgan Chase, records show.
