Tricera Capital and LNDMRK Development Acquire Walgreens-Leased Retail Building In Miami Shores

Miami-based real estate investment firm Tricera Capital, led by Scott Sherman and Ben Mandell, and Alex Karakhanian’s LNDMRK Development have teamed up to acquire a Walgreens-leased retail building in Miami Shores. The joint venture closed the off-market purchase of the 9020 Biscayne Blvd. property for $4 million on Sept. 30.

The venture obtained a $2.5 million loan from First National Bank of South Miami for the acquisition.

The acquisition is a desirable long-term investment with Walgreens is signed to a long-term single-tenant lease for the 14,850-square-foot building. Tricera and LNDMRK purchased the property at an attractive land basis, offering significant upside through future redevelopment or re-leasing the existing building. The property is adjacent to a Publix supermarket on a stretch of Biscayne Boulevard that generates substantial traffic.

“We are thrilled to partner with Alex and LNDMRK once again on this new investment,” said Tricera Co-Founders and Managing Principals Scott Sherman and Ben Mandell. “This acquisition underscores our firm’s unique ability to identify and execute on off-market opportunities in urban core neighborhoods.”

“It is exciting to expand on our successful partnership with Tricera,” Karakhanian said. “This new acquisition adds a strong asset with in-place cash flow and long-term upside to our growing portfolio.”

Miguel Pinto and Jamie Maniscalco of APEX Capital Realty represented both the buyer and seller in the off-market transaction.

In addition to the 9020 Biscayne acquisition, Tricera and LNDMRK are collaborating on several investments and developments including partnering with Related Group to develop The Dorsey, a 12-story apartment building with a parking garage and nearly 95,000 square feet of office and retail space in Wynwood. The joint venture acquired the project site, a former Coca Cola plant, in September 2019. Tricera and LNDMRK are also jointly developing a luxury retail project in Miami’s Design District.
