ORLANDO, Fla. – Robert Blackwell, SIOR, principal at NAI Realvest has achieved the coveted Elite Status with NAI Global. The award is given to NAI brokers who have closed a high level of commercial real estate transactions assigned among the 325 offices in the NAI Global worldwide system.
Patrick Mahoney, president of NAI Realvest, said one of the transactions Blackwell closed was also one of the largest industrial lease deals in Central Florida last year. Blackwell represented the tenant Pelliconi Group in a lease of an 87,000 square foot warehouse/manufacturing facility at Orlando Central Park South, where the landlord is Duke Realty. Pelliconi, based in Bologna Italy, is the largest bottle cap manufacturer in the world. Rick Leighton with NAI Global in Princeton N.J. assigned the deal to Blackwell when Pelliconi identified Orlando as a potential location for its first U.S. cap manufacturing facility.
Mahoney said another large transaction Blackwell closed in late 2010 also ranks as one of the largest industrial/flex deals of the year. ADT Security Services – a subsidiary of Tyco international – leased 47,000 square feet of flex space at Semoran CommerCenter on Shadowridge drive just north of Orlando International Airport. The landlord will build to suit over $1.5 million dollars of tenant improvements in one of the two new flex buildings leased at the center.
“ADT chose this location because of its high parking ratio and the landlord’s ability to build out the space according to the tenant’s specific requirements,” Blackwell said.
NAI Realvest is located at 2200 Lucien Way, Suite 350, Maitland, Fla. For more information visit www.nairealvest.com.

SeaGate Homes Expands its Building Program by Buying Lots and Laying Groundwork for New Model at Palm Coast’s Hidden Lakes Community
PALM COAST – SeaGate Homes, Flagler County’s largest homebuilder, has purchased lots in the Hidden Lakes community of Palm Coast and plans to start construction next month on The Hibiscus, a new 1,900-square-foot model.
Priced from $178,990, the professionally decorated Hibiscus will feature a great room and open kitchen with a separate café opening to the lanai, according to Michael Sawdai, vice president of operations.
“Homebuyers can choose to build their home as a three-bedroom, two-bath, or as a two-bedroom with a den,” he said. “It’s a great plan for families who want flexible space or may not need a designated third bedroom.” Sawdai said other features of the open-concept model home include a side-entry garage, a large covered lanai, stone front, wood floors, granite kitchen countertops, crown molding, and a Roman tub and oversized walk-in shower in the master suite.
In addition to The Hibiscus – the company also will offer 11 other floor plans. SeaGate’s prices will start in the $150s.
The model and a lakefront spec home with the Hibiscus floor plan that will get underway soon are among 375 homes being built in the planned-unit development east of Old Kings Road near the south entrance of Palm Coast’s Town Center. Homebuyers at Hidden Lakes will have access to a future community pool, playground, nature trails, hundreds of acres of conservation area and more than half a dozen lakes, Sawdai said.
For more information about the model at Hidden Lakes or other SeaGate homes, please call 386-437-6188 or visit SeaGateHomes.com.
