Highlights

  • AFFLUENT DEMOGRAPHICS & GROCERY-ANCHORED RETAIL SYNERGY: The Property is located within an affluent and dense trade area, and benefits from strong retail synergy as a Publix shadow-anchored center with proximity to Sprouts-anchored Tamaya Market, driving consistent traffic and cross-shopping.
  • STABLE CASH FLOW WITH VALUE-ADD UPSIDE (OR USER BUYER OPPORTUNITY): The Property offers in-place cash flow with a diversified tenant mix and 63% occupancy, providing immediate income with significant upside potential through leasing vacancy and marking below-market rents to current market levels, while also offering flexibility for a potential owner-user to occupy space and offset costs.
  • PRIME INFILL LOCATION WITH STRONG DEMAND DRIVERS: The Property is strategically located along Kernan Boulevard with immediate proximity to Beach Boulevard (52,000 AADT) and is less than two miles from the St. Johns Town Center, while also benefiting from nearby institutions including the University of North Florida and Florida State College at Jacksonville, which collectively provide a consistent and growing consumer base.
  • STRONG SUBMARKET FUNDAMENTALS: The Southside retail submarket continues to experience strong rent growth and low vacancy, supported by dense surrounding demographics of over 185,000 residents with average household incomes exceeding $108,000 within a five-mile radius, positioning the Property to benefit from continued tenant demand and rental rate increases.
  • LOCATED IN A HIGH-GROWTH FLORIDA MSA WITH FAVORABLE ECONOMICS: Jacksonville continues to rank among the fastest-growing metros in the country, supported by strong population and employment growth, a business-friendly environment with no state income tax, and recognition as the #2 hottest job market in the U.S. by the Wall Street Journal in 2024.

What are Real Estate Incentives?

Real Estate incentives range widely and have been overlooked by the Commercial Multiple Listing Services (MLS) for decades. Real estate incentives is a generic term used to group any number of programs, such as tax incentives, that are designated by an agency for a geographic area."

Why are Real Estate Incentives Important and to Whom?

"Incentives" are vital today and in the future because:

  • U.S. Public: Many incentives focus on job creation and Affordable Housing
  • Investors and Commercial Developers use incentives to reduce financial risk, obtain gap financing, etc. Investors and developers look for property listings with incentives available.
  • Commercial Real Estate Brokers, in mass, unfortunately do not know about incentives tied to their listings
  • Entire Supply Chain of Real Estate Development such as small and large companies who will provide goods and services to new and revitalized properties.
