CHARLOTTE-Avison Young is on the hunt for talent—and finding plenty of it. The Canadian commercial real estate firm shows no signs of slowing its aggressive recruiting and expansion freight train in the U.S.

Since August, the firm has acquired a Las Vegas commercial property management firm, added a principal and hired a valuation expert New York City, acquired a Los Angeles commercial real estate firm, wooed 30 members from Flagler to open a Florida office, acquired a New Jersey-based project management firm, and just last week, acquired a Raleigh-based firm. And that's just since August.

“From the beginning, we have stated that our growth would be strategic and a mixture of organic hiring and company acquisitions,” Mark Rose, CEO of Avison Young, tells GlobeSt.com. “We are executing to plan and exceeding our own projections.”
