## Story

Insurance giant **PGIM** has sold the 717,805-square-foot **Ponce** office complex in Coral Gables, Fla., for $97.8 million.

The buyers include **Intalex**, **Itero**, **Greenwall Capital Management** and the family office of the late entrepreneur Carl DeSantis, who founded **Sundown Vitamins** and was an early investor in the **Celsius** energy drink. (He was not related to Florida Gov. **Ron DeSantis**.)

The asset, which is 65 percent leased, includes four structures: a 257,168-square-foot Mediterranean-style office building at **2525 Ponce de Leon Boulevard**; an adjoining, 93,670-square-feet office building, which is attached to a six-story parking garage at **2555 Ponce de Leon Boulevard**; and a three-story parking garage across the street at **152 Valencia Avenue**.

**Acore Capital** provided a $105 million acquisition loan. The partnership plans to spend about $30 million renovating the complex, which was built between 1966 and 2004. The project is expected to be done next year.

“Premier assets in high-growth, supply-constrained markets continue to outperform,” **Jack Henry Kapp**, managing partner of Greenwall, said in a statement. “Even prior to closing, our pre-leasing activity has put us well ahead of schedule in executing our business plan.”

PGIM purchased the property for an undisclosed amount 20 years ago from **Hines**, which had developed and repositioned the Ponce. Hines will continue to continue to manage the asset.

**Chris Lee**, **Sean Kelly**, **Tom Rappa**, and **Matthew Lee** of **CBRE** represented the seller, and **Amy Julian** and **Andrew Chilgren** of **CBRE** arranged the financing. A representative for PGIM did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The deal follows another repositioning sale of an office building in Coral Gables, an upscale suburb of Miami. In January, **Deutsche Bank**’s asset management arm sold off the **Alhambra** for $120 million, about the same amount it paid more than a decade ago, to private equity firms **Lone Star Funds**, **Square2 Capital** and **Highline Real Estate Capital**.
