South Florida Class-A retail's recovery is so complete that refinancing is once again the relatively smooth process that it used to be, says Aztec senior managing director Howard Taft (right, with colleague Charles Penan).

Sunset Strip Plaza is anchored by Presidente Supermarket, and Sherwin Williams and Family Dollar are also tenants. He says he expects to execute a lot more deals like this.
