ATLANTA—It's hardly M&A madness, but the commercial real estate industry is seeing some mergers and acquisitions in recent months. Avison Young has been on a rip as it expands in the US, but the latest is example is Atlanta-based commercial real estate firms Metropolitan Realty Associates and iCore Corporate Real Estate, which have merged with Mohr Partners' Atlanta office.

iCore's Deane Stokes and Philip Seagraves are now managing partners. Together with Mohr's Martin Brannon, also a managing partner, the duo will serve as leadership team for the Atlanta office. Mohr has been a player in the Atlanta and Southeast markets for 10 years, but the merger marks a significant expansion of the firm's talent roster and services platform.

“We are assembling a very talented team of real estate professionals in our Atlanta office who bring diverse backgrounds and skill sets that will serve our clients well,” says Mohr president Ted Fredericks. “We expect great things from the expanded Mohr Atlanta office, and we will provide them with all the resources they need to deliver the best possible service to our clients.”
