Our client is a privately held family office with a long-standing history of owning, developing, and managing commercial real estate in Central Florida. Their portfolio includes a large outdoor retail power center, a small shopping plaza, and multiple office buildings—including two historic properties in downtown Orlando. They operate with a tight-knit team in a laid-back, non-corporate environment that values trust, agency, independence, and long-term relationships.
