Four Retail Deals OK'd

FORT WORTH-Move-in is right around the corner for Fidelity National Title’s newest metroplex office, a 3,727-sf location in the Summit at Bridgewood center on Fort Worth’s east side. The newcomer, along with a 3,000-sf renewal, puts the center at 90% occupancy.

Fidelity and Best Images Systems Inc. signed for the long term. Fidelity is filling a space that’s been vacant for some time at the 1100 Bridgewood Dr. property, owned by Madison Realty Investors of Dallas. “It was a good deal,” Jason Miller of Property Advisers Realty Inc., the building owner’s rep, tells GlobeSt.com. As for the rate, it was market, he says.

Fidelity National Financial Inc., headquartered in Irvine, CA, used an in-house representative to do its bargaining. Miller was the sole broker on the renewal for Best Image Systems, a five-year tenant with four locations in Dallas-Fort Worth.

In Southlake, the New Jersey-based Vitamin Shoppe took 4,000 sf at Wyndham Plaza in its usual long-term signing for the Texas expansion that has been underway for most of this year. The Dallas-based Staubach Co. team of Brian Murphy, vice president, and Greg Bracchi represent the Vitamin Shoppe in Texas. Jim Pangman of Pangman Commercial brokered the terms for the building owner of the center, which sits on the northwest corner of FM 1709 and Nolan Drive.

In Arlington, a used car dealer bought his lot, with a 1,249-sf sales building, after years of leasing at 700 E. Division St. Cantwell Auto Sales acquired the 140-foot by 100-foot retail-zoned lot from the Natalie Parr Estate for $125,000, according to Nell Council of SCM Real Estate Services in Arlington. She was the sole broker on the transaction for a parcel located a half block west of Cooper Street and positioned in a primary retail corridor.
