Eastern Union Funding Arranges Acquisition Financing for Doral, Fla. Retail Property in Sale-Leaseback Transaction

9/26/16

Eastern Union Funding managing director David Betesh has arranged a $3 million acquisition loan with Mercantil Commercebank for the purchase of 8210 NW 36th St., in Doral, Fla., on behalf of the borrower Famous Capital, LLC. The 6,645-square-foot, single-tenant retail property is home to a Famous Dave's barbecue restaurant.

Aventura, Fla.-based Axiom Capital Advisors (Axiom) represented Famous Capital, LLC in the off-market acquisition, a sale-leaseback for the seller BCBK Investment Group, LLC. The purchase price was not disclosed.

The freestanding building—situated on a 60,603-square-foot lot—is located on the busy NW 36th Street Doral artery. It is adjacent to the widely anticipated mixed-use development CityPlace Doral, a “smart-growth” community that is nearing completion.

"This location provides the buyer with a safe long-term investment in a top-tier market. Doral is a hub for successful restaurant chains," said Axiom Principal Roberto Susi. "The recent success of this Famous Dave's restaurant and proximity to CityPlace Doral was very attractive to the buyer.”
