EQT Exeter Pays $15M For Doral Warehouse And Office Building

EQT Exeter paid $14.5 million for a warehouse and office building in Doral.

An affiliate of the Radnor, Pennsylvania-based real estate investment trust acquired the 45,970-square-foot mixed-use building at 3605 Northwest 115th Avenue, records show. Sitting on a 2.1-acre site, the building was completed in 2004.

The seller, an entity managed by Harry Aizenberg in Laredo, Texas, paid $690,000 for the property in 1997, records show.

The building is leased to Wrk Lab, an office furniture dealer, according to an online listing.

Led by CEO Ward Fitzgerald, EQT Exeter acquires, develops, leases, and manages industrial, residential and office properties in North and South America, Europe and Asia, according to the firm’s website.

In an off-market deal, Boston-based Longpoint Partners scooped up six warehouses near Medley and Doral for $30 million.
