LAW FIRM ON DEED: Weisman & Margolies PA, Boca Raton

PLANS, DESCRIPTION: An affiliate of the Hallandale-based Isram Group of Cos. purchased the 172,596-square-foot Bayside Bridge Plaza for $17.25 million.

The price equated to $100 per square foot.

Built in 1989 and last updated in 2010, the center is anchored by a 42,112-square-foot Publix supermarket. Other tenants include Family Fitness, Gatti Town Restaurant, Dollar Tree, Pet Supplies Plus and Ace Hardware. In addition, the property includes three owned outparcels: Bank of America, Checkers and Tires Plus. Bayside Bridge Plaza was 91% occupied at the time of the sale.

CBRE’s Miami-based National Retail Investment Group Team for Florida represented the seller.

“Isram was interested in high quality in-fill real estate and a property with the potential for cash flow growth,” Casey Rosen, a senior vice president with CBRE in Miami, says in a press release. “The sale will enable Dalfen [America Corp.] to successfully exit from one of its earliest investments and reinvest proceeds into industrial assets — the company’s current area of focus.”

The purchase entity Isram Bayside Bridge LLC mortgaged the property to ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Co. for $11.2 million.

The Isram Group of Cos. currently owns, leases and manages 2 million square feet of primarily retail neighborhood and community shopping centers in Florida.
