In the heart of Palm Beach County, a nonprofit with a significant impact on individuals facing medical challenges, the Osto Group, recently faced a daunting challenge. Serving the community for over 15 years, this organization provides essential medical supplies to those in need, particularly those recovering from bowel surgeries.
Featured in a news story by WPTV, the Osto Group shared the crucial role they play in the lives of individuals like Jeff Davis, a cancer survivor from Alabama. Jeff expressed the difficulty he faced in obtaining necessary supplies during his recovery, emphasizing the invaluable support provided by the Osto Group.
However, rising rent costs threatened the nonprofit’s ability to continue its mission. With a 200% increase in rent, they were forced to suspend operations, putting their critical supplies in storage and leaving countless ostomates in a challenging situation.
Enter NAI/Merin Hunter Codman, a commercial real estate firm dedicated to making a positive impact in the community. Senior Associate, Jeffrey Cebula recognized the urgency of the Osto Group’s situation and successfully facilitated a more affordable lease solution, facilitating a ±3,480 SF industrial lease transaction in Palm Beach Gardens. His market knowledge and tenacity allowed him to find the space and get them moved in just one month! This means the nonprofit can resume its vital operations, ensuring ostomates nationwide continue to receive the essential supplies they depend on for daily life.
The commercial real estate business is about more than space – it’s about tailoring solutions to specific needs and utilizing market knowledge to bring a deal to fruition. It was a pleasure to work with the Osto Group to locate them an affordable, move-in ready space in Palm Beach County.
