JLL Capital Markets announced today that it has closed the $37.25 million sale of the Valencia at Doral multi-housing property in Miami-Dade County, Florida.
JLL worked on behalf of the seller, Transcendent Investment Management, to complete the sale to the buyer, Axonic Properties.
Valencia at Doral is a fractured condominium totaling 170 of 310 units. The 170 units are made up of one-, two- and three-bedroom floorplans and are run as a traditional rental community. The property has undergone significant renovations with high-end finishes. About 75% of the units have undergone a full renovation including granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and vinyl flooring. Community amenities include a 24-hour fitness center; resort-style pools with cabanas, grilling and a sundeck; a tennis and racquetball court; 24-hour business center and conference room; clubhouse and entertainment room; children’s playground and provides access to the Doral Park Country Club.
The property is located at 10000 N.W. 45th Terrace in Doral, part of Miami-Dade County. Doral is one of the fastest-growing, larger cities in Florida, being named #2 on “America’s Top 25 Cities to Live in” list by Forbes and has recently undergone an office market boom with over 18.8 million square feet of office space. The city is also known for becoming a catalyst in the global trade, logistics, finance, television, pharmaceutical and healthcare industries, drawing interest from various Fortune 500 companies such as Pepsi and Univision. Additionally, Doral nearly tripled its population over the last decade with predictions pointing to an 11% increase through 2024, posing an excellent opportunity for multi-housing investment to keep up with its growth.
“We are excited to add Valencia at Doral to our holdings in southeast Florida,” said Jonathan Shechtman, Managing Principal Axonic Properties. “This property type is attractive in today’s market environment. The large floor plans and robust amenities make this an attractive rental option in a growing market.”
The JLL Capital Markets team representing the seller was led by Maurice Habif, Brain Gaswirth, Simon Banke and Jo Rousseau.
“Valencia at Doral represents a fantastic investment opportunity, combining an incredibly located suburban asset with significant value-add potential and an affluent demographic profile that jointly provide a clear path to driving value,” said Banke.
