The team developed new marketing collateral, reintroduced the building to the market through curated investor outreach, and positioned the asset’s value-add potential effectively. The result was a competitive sale process that achieved the client’s full pricing expectations within a condensed marketing timeline.
The team generated multiple offers ranging from $17 million to $30 million and invited the top five to a best-and-final process. Intense competition resulted in a final sale at $32 million—107% of the asking price—with two finalists only $250,000 apart. The transaction demonstrated Blanca CRE’s ability to drive premium outcomes through precise positioning and disciplined process management.
Blanca CRE identified a unique opportunity during COVID to leverage favorable market conditions, creating competition among landlords and negotiating premier terms including top-of-building signage. The team secured Insigneo’s headquarters at 1221 Brickell Avenue, delivered expansion rights that were later exercised to secure the building’s top two floors, and supported additional growth in Coral Gables and New York. The long-term advisory relationship has supported Insigneo’s expansion from approximately $8 billion to over $35 billion in supported client assets.
Blanca CRE conducted a full market assessment and initiated a competitive RFP process to create leverage for Dufry’s tenancy. At the same time, the team negotiated directly with the existing landlord, Prologis, to explore expansion options. By running both strategies in parallel, Blanca CRE secured a short-term expansion at Dufry’s existing rental rate—avoiding any increase in occupancy costs—while also structuring a long-term built-to-suit lease designed to support the company’s growth over the next decade.
Blanca CRE was engaged to lead leasing efforts and implemented a proactive outreach strategy targeting the medical brokerage community and local healthcare providers. The team secured tenant renewals, attracted new medical users, and advised ownership on strategic upgrades to improve competitiveness. Within two years, the building reached 100% occupancy at market rents, backfilling the only non-medical tenant with a healthcare user and supporting renovations to the lobby, hallways, flooring, signage, and exterior.
Blanca helps investors and developers seize opportunities, optimize assets, and achieve superior returns.
