10125 & 10131 W Colonial Dr in Ocoee

Cushman & Wakefield has brokered the sale of the West Orange Professional Center, a portfolio of two medical office buildings located at 10125 & 10131 W Colonial Dr in Ocoee.

The two-story buildings are located directly across the street from the Orlando Health – Health Central Hospital campus. The 38,537-square-foot portfolio was 88.2% leased with a weighted average lease term of over 5.5 years. The property was acquired by OrbVest and SG Property Services. OrbVest is a global real estate company focused on acquiring healthcare real estate assets across the United States.

Anne Spencer and John Skinner with the Florida Healthcare Advisory Practice in partnership with Travis Ives and Gino Lollio of Cushman & Wakefield’s US Healthcare Capital Markets Team represented the seller, Miami-based Larkspur Properties, in the transaction.

“Desirably located adjacent to a major regional hospital facility, the property was a unique opportunity to acquire a dependable income stream from an esteemed tenant roster combined with a value-add opportunity in the lease-up of vacant space,” said Ives, Managing Director. “During the seller’s ownership, several new tenants were signed to the property that increased the overall occupancy and stability of the asset. This building and location offers exceptional synergy across the healthcare landscape.” 

 

Spencer, Director said, “Ocoee is part of the greater Orlando MSA, one of the fastest growing regions in the country for its fantastic climate, affordable housing stock and abundance of shopping and employment opportunities. This growth has led to the rising need and demand from medical users, and therefore investors. The market for medical space on and around the property is nearly fully occupied, putting this asset in great position for further potential future success.”

Orlando Health – Health Central Hospital is a 211-bed, general acute care hospital that features nationally accredited programs in orthopedics, spine and heart care. In addition, the hospital recently completed a 30,000-sf cancer treatment facility.

“We were attracted to this opportunity to further expand our portfolio in South Florida”, said ShareMD founder and Chief Investment Officer, George Scopetta. “And, our team’s private equity backing and our track record of nearly one million square feet of properties purchased over the past three years provided the seller with confidence that we could close quickly, and with certainty.”

The purchase was financed by a loan from American National Insurance Company facilitated by Pacific Southwest Realty Services (PSRS) Genworth Life Insurance Company. Greenberg Traurig provided legal counsel, and title services were provided by Chicago Title. Additional purchase transaction support was provided by ShareMD Asset Management, a healthcare facility-focused management company which also manages ShareMD’s bicoastal portfolio.
