Venture One Real Estate paid $36.2 million for a trio of Boynton Beach warehouses.
Through an acquisition fund, an affiliate of Rosemont, Illinois-based Venture One purchased Boynton Logistics Center, an industrial complex at 1200, 1210 and 1220 Southwest 35th Avenue, records and real estate database Vizzda show. The buyer obtained a $50 million mortgage from Lake Forest Bank & Trust Company.
The deal breaks down to $119 per square foot.
A Cushman & Wakefield team led by Mike Davis and Dominic Montazemi marketed the property.
The seller, an affiliate of North Miami Beach-based Elion Partners, paid $25.8 million for the 12-acre site in 2020, records show. Elion is led by managing partners Jack Azout, Shlomo Khoudari, Juan DeAngulo and Sylvain Argy.
The three buildings, spanning roughly 304,000 square feet, were completed in 2005, 2017 and 2018, records show. Boynton Logistics Center is 91 percent occupied, according to an online listing.
