1025 Metro
Exclusive 151-Unit New Construction Offering in Hialeah
Marketing description
Cushman & Wakefield is pleased to present Metro 1025, a newly delivered 151-unit Class A multifamily community located at 1025 E 25th Street in Hialeah, Florida. Currently in lease-up, Metro 1025 represents a rare opportunity to acquire an institutional-quality, purpose-built multifamily asset in one of Miami-Dade County’s most supply-constrained and consistently high-occupancy submarkets.
Metro 1025 delivers a thoughtfully designed mix of studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments averaging 591 square feet, with in-place market rents averaging $2,215 per unit per month ($3.75/SF). The eight-story building features 188 parking spaces, ground-floor retail, and best-in-class amenities purpose-built for the Hialeah renter demographic. All rents are comfortably within the 120% AMI threshold, uniquely positioning Metro 1025 to qualify for Florida’s Live Local Act — an opportunity that could substantially reduce the property’s real estate tax burden and significantly supercharge investor returns.
The Hialeah/Miami Lakes submarket has maintained occupancy above 97% for five consecutive years, driven by deeply affordable rents relative to the broader MiamiDade market and a dense, growing population base with a limited supply pipeline. Metro 1025 enters this high-demand corridor as one of the only newly delivered Class A options, positioned to capture new-construction rent premiums while offering meaningful NOI upside through lease-up execution and the Live Local tax benefit.
Investment highlights
- Brand-New, Class A Asset — Zero Deferred Maintenance: Metro 1025 was delivered in 2025 as a purpose-built, institutional-quality multifamily community. Investors acquire a fully modern building with no capital requirements and landlord-friendly operating economics from Day 1.
- Lease-Up Velocity: The property is actively leasing, presenting investors with the opportunity to acquire at a basis below stabilized value and capture rapid NOI growth as occupancy ramps to market within a high-demand, supply-constrained submarket.
- Live Local Act — Supercharge Your Returns: All units at Metro 1025 are priced within the 120% AMI limit required under Florida’s Live Local Act (SB 102). An incoming owner can apply for significant ad valorem tax exemptions — with the potential to reduce the current $755,419 real estate tax obligation by 50–75%+. Estimated annual tax savings of $565K–$617K flow directly to NOI, materially expanding day-one yield and providing meaningful downside protection through the hold period.
- Supply-Constrained Submarket with 97%+ Occupancy: The Hialeah/Miami Lakes submarket has sustained occupancy above 97% for five consecutive years, driven by deep renter demand, relative affordability versus the broader Miami-Dade market, and a historically thin new supply pipeline.
- Sub-Replacement-Cost Basis: Metro 1025 cannot be reproduced today for less than approximately $485,000 per unit (~$73.3M total) on a fully-loaded development basis — incorporating Hialeah TOD-corridor land at $60,000 per approved unit, South Florida concrete mid-rise hard costs of $300,000 per unit, standard soft-cost / financing-carry / contingency / developer-fee loads, and the post-2023 cost inflation embedded in current South Florida insurance, hurricane-impact glazing, and concrete framing pricing. An incoming investor acquires a brand-new, fully-entitled, transit-walkable Class A asset at a meaningful discount to replacement cost — and crucially, with zero residual development, lease-up, or interest-rate-carry risk on a construction loan.
- Exceptional Transit Connectivity: Residents enjoy walkable access to Metrorail, Brightline, and Tri-Rail — providing car-free connectivity to Miami's CBD, Miami International Airport, Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, and Orlando. This level of multimodal access is shared by virtually no other multifamily asset in the Hialeah submarket.
- Institutional-Grade Finishes and Unit Mix: Metro 1025 features modern kitchens, in-unit washer/dryer, dedicated parking, and an efficient mix of studios, one-, and two-bedroom apartments averaging 591 SF — designed to match the workforce renter profile that drives sustained occupancy in the Hialeah corridor.
- Proximity to Major Healthcare, Retail, and Employment: The property sits within minutes of Hialeah Hospital, Leon Medical Centers, Hialeah Park Racing & Casino, Miami International Airport, and an extensive retail corridor anchored by Walmart, Walgreens, and national restaurant chains — providing deep, diversified renter demand.
