ICSC Florida - Orlando, here we come.

I’ll be attending ICSC Florida from August 30–September 1, representing C-3 Retail Advisory and our growing South Florida retail real estate platform.

We’re currently working on national-tenant ground leases, big-box repositioning, retail development opportunities, retail land and value-add acquisitions, and single-tenant net-lease investment sales exits throughout Florida.

I’m looking forward to connecting with net lease property owners, retailers, developers, investors, brokers and capital partners interested in creating new opportunities together.

Will you be attending? Send me a DM and let’s schedule a meeting in Orlando.

Deal Stories by C-3

Retail property sale in Largo, Florida.

C-3 Commercial Real Estate Advisory represented IMECA Lumber in the $3,000,000 sale of 9483 Ulmerton Road, a 10,080 SF commercial building, on a 1.4 acre site, located on a signalized corner along the Ulmerton Road retail corridor.

The property was originally marketed for lease to national retail tenants before ultimately being acquired by Trust Roofing, which plans to establish its regional headquarters at the site.

Congratulations to all parties involved.

Deal Stories by C-3

Another retail repositioning successfully completed by C-3.

This former QSR in Sarasota is now secured under a 20-year ground lease with Tim Hortons, stabilizing the asset for the owner and creating long-term value.

National tenants competed for the location and we were able to push the rent, extend the term, and structure a strong deal for ownership.

Proud to represent the landlord on this transaction.

C-3: Driving Retail Real Estate Forward.

Leasing. Sales. Advisory. Investments.

Drove all over South Florida yesterday, doing what C-3 does best—putting boots on the ground, walking off-market retail sites, and looking for the next big value-add play.

Not every deal starts as a listing. Sometimes, it starts with a call from a friend, a drive through a key submarket, and a vision for what the property could become.

Florida retail isn’t the same game it was a decade ago. Values have shifted. Consumers have evolved. If you’re not seeing what’s next, you’re missing the deal.

At C‑3, we attack retail real estate from all angles:

◆ Leasing: Filling space with national and credit tenants
◆ Sales: Unlocking value for owners and investors
◆ Advisory: Solving real problems—leasing, repositioning, or prepping for a sale
◆ Investments: Direct operator mindset—activating sites others overlook

Every mile driven is about more than just seeing property—it’s about seeing potential. Let’s drive the next deal together.

5398 Biscayne Blvd
MIMO District, Miami FL

Tenant: Chipotle Mexican Grill
Grand Opening: Next Week

What you see now — a beautifully finished Chipotle in the heart of The Historic MIMO District— started as a vacant, complicated QSR site back in 2021, during the height of COVID.

This wasn’t just a lease. It was a full-scale repositioning that required creative ex*****on and heavy advisory:

◆ Worked with the landlord to secure Unity of Title
◆ Negotiated Chipotle to fund the Unity of Title process
◆ Navigated historic preservation, zoning, and FDOT approvals
◆ Guided the deal from LOI to full build-out and delivery

This one required time, grit, and strategic coordination. But it’s a perfect example of how we bring value across all four of C‑3’s pillars:

◆ Retail Leasing
◆ Investment Sales
◆ Advisory
◆ Direct Investments

Another high-impact urban retail transformation delivered.
