Holliday Fenoglio Fowler, L.P. (HFF) announces the $73.75 million sale of the Shoppes at Isla Verde, a 207,030-square-foot, trophy grocery-anchored power retail center in the infill South Florida community of Wellington, to institutional asset manager, MetLife Investment Management.

The HFF team marketed the property on behalf of the seller, Shoppes at Isla Verde, Ltd, a partnership that includes PEBB Enterprises and Pebb Capital. PEBB Enterprises will continue to manage and lease the property for the new owner.

Completed in 2008, The Shoppes at Isla Verde is 94.2 percent leased to a variety of tenants, including Best Buy, Ulta Beauty, Jo Ann Fabrics and Crafts, Petco, Off Broadway Shoes, Total Wine and More and CVS. The Shoppes at Isla Verde is also the future home to Sprouts Farmers Market. Located along Wellington’s primary retail corridor, the center is at 960 South State Road 7 and is visible to more than 56,000 vehicles per day. Additionally, the power center is less than a mile from both The Mall at Wellington Green, a super-regional mall that draws shoppers year-round, and Wellington Regional Medical Center. Located in affluent Palm Beach County, more than 66,000 residents earning an average annual household income of $113,200 live within a three-mile radius of the Shoppes at Isla Verde.

The HFF investment advisory team that represented the seller included senior managing director and co-head of HFF’s retail practice Daniel Finkle, managing director Luis Castillo and director Eric Williams.

“It was a privilege to represent PEBB Enterprises and Pebb Capital in the sale of Shoppes at Isla Verde,” Finkle said. “This is one of the finest retail projects in South Florida that sets a high standard in terms of functional design, best-in-class tenancy and market dominant location.”
