"Through our extensive buyer relationships, we were able to bring multiple qualified, all-cash buyers to the foreclosure auction," says Patrick Dufour, a broker with ARA in Tampa. Dufour worked with Kevin Judd of the firm's Orlando office on the Spring Glade sale.

Coconut Creek-based Elster/Rocatica LLC paid cash for the property at 2232 N. Spring Glade Circle and funded the acquisition solely with internal equity. The prior owner paid just over $1 million for the complex in 1995, Hillsborough County property records show.
