Investment highlights
- Prime Auto Repair & Mixed-Use Investment - The property features a unique blend of retail automotive service and residential multifamily components, providing investors with diversified income streams and multiple avenues for value creation. The combination of stable retail tenancy and residential upside offers a balanced investment profile with both current cash flow and future growth potential.
- Established Automotive Tenant - The retail portion of the property is fully leased to Boulevard Tire Center, a highly recognized automotive and commercial tire service provider with a significant presence throughout Florida. Founded in 1968, Boulevard Tire has evolved into one of the state's leading tire and fleet service operators, serving both individual consumers and commercial transportation clients through an extensive network of locations.
- Proven Regional Operator - Boulevard Tire operates 9 retail tire and automotive service centers, 28 commercial truck service facilities, and 4 Bandag retread plants throughout Florida. Its long-standing market presence, diverse customer base, and specialized commercial services provide a strong operating foundation and reinforce tenant stability.
- Fresh Long-Term Lease Commitment - The tenant recently executed a new 5-year lease term commencing April 1, 2026, demonstrating continued commitment to the location. The lease includes a 5-year renewal option and features 2% annual rent escalations, providing built-in income growth and a hedge against inflation.
- Immediate Residential Value-Add Opportunity - The apartment component is currently owner-occupied, creating an attractive opportunity for new ownership to lease the units at market rates. This presents immediate NOI enhancement potential through residential income generation without requiring significant capital investment.
- Diversified Income Profile - Unlike traditional single-tenant assets, the property benefits from multiple revenue streams generated by both commercial and residential uses. This diversification can help mitigate vacancy risk while creating flexibility for future ownership strategies.
- Excellent Capital Improvements - Ownership has demonstrated strong stewardship through significant property upgrades, including a newer upper roof installed in 2007, a new lower roof completed in 2022, and comprehensive apartment renovations performed in 2007. These improvements reduce near-term capital expenditure requirements and support long-term asset performance.
- Essential Service Retail Use - As an automotive repair and tire service facility, the property is occupied by an essential-service business that benefits from recurring consumer demand regardless of broader economic conditions. Vehicle maintenance and repair services remain a necessity-driven retail category that supports long-term occupancy and operational stability.
