Space Description & Highlights
Executive Summary Chaberman Advisory is pleased to exclusively offer for sale 955 S. Federal Highway, a fully renovated multi-tenant office asset located along South Federal Highway at the southern edge of Downtown Fort Lauderdale. The property is offered at $11,950,000, representing a 7.1% going-in cap rate on in-place income with a defined path to an 8.1% stabilized yield through lease-up of existing vacancy. The four-story, 48,106 SF building contains 23,784 rentable SF of office space across floors 3 and 4, with two dedicated levels of structured parking providing 53 covered spaces. The property underwent a complete gut renovation in 2020, including new building systems, common areas, and professional finishes, significantly reducing near-term capital requirements. The third floor is configured as turnkey executive suites, with 33 of 42 suites currently occupied and nine vacant. The fourth floor is a flexible coworking environment master-leased through December 2027. The nine vacant suites are fully built out and represent approximately $144,000 of additional annual revenue at current asking rents, with no additional capital required to deliver the spaces. A major demand catalyst sits just few blocks from the property: the new $245 million U.S. Federal Courthouse, an approximately 255,000 SF, 10-story facility with 12 courtrooms and 17 judges’ chambers, scheduled to open in phases beginning in early 2027. The courthouse is expected to generate additional demand from law firms, litigation support services, title companies, mediators, and other professional users seeking proximity to the federal judicial complex. A meaningful portion of the property's rent roll is positioned to reprice around the courthouse opening, creating additional mark-to-market potential beyond the initial lease-up opportunity.
