Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty Negotiates $1.5 Million sale of Tomoka Oaks Golf and Country Club in Ormond Beach
ORLANDO, Fla. – Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty’s Commercial Division recently negotiated the $1.5 Million sale of Tomoka Oaks Golf and Country Club at 20 Tomoka Oaks Blvd. in Ormond Beach.
Mark Arnold, International Commercial Investment Specialist at Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty, negotiated the transaction representing the seller, Putnam State Bank, based in Palatka.
Arnold said an Orlando area investment partnership purchased the property, which consists of an historic 18-hole golf course built in 1965 and 144 acres including 33 acres for future residential development.
Tomoka Oaks is complemented by magnificent Oaks throughout the established residential community in Ormond Beach. The prime location, in-town gentile and proximity to the beach have long attracted seasonal residents to the community, Arnold said.
“We fully expect the new ownership to bring the course and facilities back to the premier conditions of its storied past,” he said.
Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty’s marketing efforts attracted extensive interest from area investors and developers as well as prospective buyers interested in golf course ownership and land development from across the country as well as international buyers, Arnold added.
“The level of interest speaks highly of the attractiveness and future of the Ormond Beach area,” said Arnold.

Landlords Should Shower Love and Attention on Small Retailers hit hardest by recession, says Rachel Wein of WeinPlus
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. --- Retail property owners and retail center landlords have been hard hit by the recession, but small retailers — those who lease less than 10,000 square feet of space — have been hit harder, says commercial real estate consultant Rachel Elias Wein, president of WeinPlus Real Estate Advisory Services in St. Petersburg.
Smart landlords are making special efforts to form strategic partnerships with their small retail tenants to assure the success of both parties in tough times.
“Nationwide, vacancy rates for neighborhood shopping centers set a 10-year high during the second quarter and range just under eight percent now,” Wein said. “On average, small shop retailers account for about eight percent of the space in neighborhood retail centers, so it’s imperative that property owners and managers do everything they can to encourage the success of their mom-and-pop tenants,” she said.
Wein said rent concessions and lease contract modifications may form a part of the solution, but successful landlords are looking elsewhere.
“The best retail property owners look at the small shop tenants as strategic partners,” Wein said. “The realize that marketing efforts, signage, and organizational efforts like marketing co-ops play a big role in the success of small retailers and that can make a difference between a thriving retail center and a lot of “for rent” signs,” she said.
The most important asset a property manger can provide is time, Wein said. “Property managers should cultivate tenant relationships and learn what their tenants needs are,” Wein said.
“In the long run, small tenants require time and energy, but they play a vital role in creating the synergy that shoppers seek in a neighborhood retail center,” she said.

PORT ORANGE – The Port Orange-based law firm of Rue & Ziffra received a first-place plaque for its colorful “Christmas Candyland” float entry in the 34th annual Port Orange Christmas Parade on Dec. 3.

“Whether it’s serving food to parade watchers or creating our own float, every year we look forward to participating in this wonderful community event that kicks off the holiday season here in Port Orange,” he said.
And, Ziffra added, “this year we got a bonus by taking first place in a field of 39.”

More than a dozen children and adults – including three Rue & Ziffra employees and their families – rode atop the float and handed out holiday candy, bottled water and hot dogs to parade watchers. Many of the children got into the holiday spirit by wearing candy cane and gingerbread costumes and giving out temporary tattoos and balloons to other children.
Taking a top honor in the parade’s business professional category was a first for the law firm in only its second year of building and entering a float, according to Allan Ziffra, a partner in the longtime personal-injury firm.
“Whether it’s serving food to parade watchers or creating our own float, every year we look forward to participating in this wonderful community event that kicks off the holiday season here in Port Orange,” he said.
And, Ziffra added, “this year we got a bonus by taking first place in a field of 39.”
