Waste management mogul Patrick Dovigi purchased a waterfront estate in Miami Beach for $27.5 million, about a month after he sold his Bal Harbour mansion.
Dovigi, one of Canada’s wealthiest businessmen, bought the 11,340-square-foot, seven-bedroom and nine-bathroom mansion at 1525 West 24th Street on the Sunset Islands through an LLC, property records show. A land trust managed by David A. Bradley sold the 0.6-acre property.
Dovigi’s entity financed the purchase with a $19.3 million mortgage from J.P. Morgan.
The house, on Sunset Island III, has 156 feet of water frontage, a heated pool, spa, outdoor kitchen and a rooftop terrace, according to the listing. It was built in 2005 and previously traded in 2021 for $17 million.
The property was most recently on the market with Jill Hertzberg of the Jills Zeder Group at Coldwell Banker. Her children, Danny and Hillary Hertzberg of the same team, represented the buyer.
Dovigi founded and leads a major Canadian waste management company called Green For Life Environmental. Toronto-based GFL is now one of the largest waste management companies in North America following its 2018 merger with Waste Industries, an American company. Last year, he was named the wealthiest CEO in Canada, according to the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives.
Dovigi is also a former professional hockey player. He played for the National Hockey League’s Edmonton Oilers team in 1997.
He’s been buying and selling luxury properties in Miami-Dade County for years.
In March, he sold the partially built home at 276 Bal Bay Drive to a hidden trust for $69.5 million. That sale marked a record for Bal Harbour.
In 2023, he sold a Fisher Island condo for $20 million.
