"Furthermore, this merger is consistent with the strategy we have successfully used throughout our firm's evolution: enter new markets while expanding our geographic footprint."

We are energized about the possibilities of bringing our two like-minded organizations together," said Magda Westerhout, Marks Thomas's Multifamily Housing Principal.

We are excited to offer this experience to our clients while also providing our staff with additional opportunities for growth."
