HOLLYWOOD, July 22, 2024Franklin Street Investment Sales announced today the sale of Shoppes at Monterra Commons, a 30,170-square-foot shopping center in Hollywood, Fla., for $18.5 million.

This is a great sale for the South Florida market, and we are excited for all parties involved.”

Matus, Senior Vice President, added, “I am proud of our team on how we executed on this assignment at a high level. Our firm has been involved with this project since the land acquisition about a decade ago, and at the time of when it was sold to the developer six years ago. This is a prime example of the tailored approach we offer our clients at Franklin Street, and our ability to work with them throughout the entire lifecycle of the deal.”
