MIAMI, Florida (March 2, 2026) - Lee & Associates South Florida elevated Matthew Lago to Vice President following his instrumental role in the successful $7.6 million sale of a charter school property in Fort Pierce, Florida brokered alongside Principal Sebastian Misiewicz.

Lago’s promotion comes on the heels of the firm’s recently announced investment sale of a 41,812-square-foot charter school facility in Fort Pierce, a transaction that underscores strategic investment activity within Florida’s expanding commercial real estate market. Working in close coordination, Misiewicz and Lago guided the client through pricing strategy, buyer qualification, negotiations, and closing, ensuring a seamless execution from listing to final disposition.

As Vice President, Lago focuses on investment sales continuing to partner with Misiewicz to represent private investors, institutional buyers, and owner-users in the acquisition, disposition and leasing of commercial properties throughout South Florida and emerging Florida markets.

“Matthew has consistently demonstrated the drive, market knowledge, and professionalism that define our firm,” said Sebastian Misiewicz, Principal at Lee & Associates South Florida. “His contributions to the $7.6 million charter school sale were instrumental to its success and his promotion to Vice President is well-earned.”

Since joining Lee & Associates South Florida, Lago has built a reputation for his analytical approach, responsiveness, and dedication to understanding each client’s objectives. His promotion reflects both his individual accomplishments and the firm’s ongoing commitment to developing top commercial real estate talent from within.

“I’m grateful to work alongside Sebastian and the entire Lee & Associates South Florida team,” said Lago. “The charter school sale was a meaningful transaction for our client, and I’m proud of the collaboration that led to its successful closing. I look forward to building on this momentum and continuing to deliver great results for our clients.”
