A family that owned 1,220 acres at an interchange along the Interstate 75 south corridor retained our firm to prepare an investment strategy. A key question was disposition timing and whether to actively market the property for sale. Demographic and development trends, land prices, and availability of competitive sites were investigated to help address this issue. Interviews with local and state economic development officials were also conducted to better understand the potential to attract a large user to the property. The property was recently sold in bulk at an attractive price.
