North American Properties — Southeast, Inc. is one of Florida's premier commercial
real estate developers respected for its high standards, strong attention to detail
and focus on the retailer's customers. The Fort Myers' office develops all types
of commercial projects, from small neighborhood centers and power centers to mixed-use
developments and multi-family communities. In early 2010, the US Green Building
Council awarded North American its 1st Gold LEED® Certification for Publix at Bee
Ridge, a grocery-anchored shopping center in Sarasota, Fla.
Capabilities
Founded in 1954, North American Properties and its affiliate offices have developed
18.5 million square feet of retail space, approximately 11,000 apartment units and
well over one million square feet of office space across 12 states. Since its inception
in 1988, the Ft. Myers office has developed or currently has under development 3.6
million square feet of commercial space, acquired and/or developed over 1,000 apartment
units, and entitled and permitted approximately 300 acres of multi-use projects.
It has built a reputation throughout the region for premier commercial developments
that address the needs of retailers, with a primary focus on grocery-anchored neighborhood
centers.

Community groups and government agencies alike have recognized Hafele's development
team as "community-conscious and attentive planners." With strong relationships
with national and regional retailers, he adopts a retailer’s perspective throughout
the site selection process. McIntyre has a wealth of entitlement and permitting
experience throughout the State of Florida, while Browne complements the team with
an intuitive perspective on strategic asset management.
Long-Term Strategy
Florida's continuing population growth coupled with a limited supply of properly
zoned, concurrent retail sites has given rise in the Ft. Myers office to a long-term,
develop-and-hold strategy – unique to the Florida development community. From classic
architectural selection to the use of native landscape and building materials that
control maintenance costs, this strategy is considered throughout the development
process and is evident in the final product. The property management team manages
and continues to add value to approximately $100 million of assets owned by the
principals of North American Properties.
