AQUISITIONS CRITERIA
Commodore Realty Inc, is always looking to acquire new retail properties throughout the State of Florida. In addition, over the next 5 years, we would like to make our first acquisitions outside of Florida to further diversify our portfolio. Properties should have strong fundamentals including location, access, and visibility.
Multi-Family, Entire Condo Projects, Office Buildings, and Vacant Land will also be considered if the property is in a distressed situation and the Seller is looking to make an immediate exit from the property at a discount.
