Growing Atlanta Property Group Hires Austin Chase as Director of Leasing

 
Court Thomas
 ATLANTA, GA – Atlanta Property Group, a locally based real estate investment firm, experienced incredible leasing velocity in 2012 as occupancy jumped 15 percentage points at its six recently acquired properties and 10 percentage points in the remainder of the portfolio totaling 2.2 million square feet.

 “Our leasing velocity demonstrates our ability to achieve our overall goal, which is to position Atlanta Property Group as the go-to provider of quality office space for value-conscious small and mid-size tenants,” said Court Thomas, a partner in Atlanta Property Group. “We accomplished this increase in occupancy in a year that was generally a flat period for the local economy and office market.”

To maintain the leasing momentum, APG has added veteran landlord representative Austin Chase to its team as Director - Leasing. The firm is bringing its leasing services in house as its portfolio continues to expand.

“We are continually seeking future investment opportunities across the metro Atlanta area,” Thomas said.

In the later part of 2012, APG closed on the acquisition of three buildings in Atlanta as part of its fund portfolio, including: Paces Cumberland, at the intersection of Paces Ferry Road and 1-285 in the Cumberland/Galleria submarket; 280 Interstate North, also in the Cumberland/Galleria submarket; and 1190 West Druid Hills in the Druid Chase Office Park.

 The acquisitions bring APG’s total portfolio to 2.2 million square feet. The firm continues to be an active buyer in the Atlanta market.
