NEW YORK CITY — Butler Burgher Group (BBG) is acquiring New York City-based Leitner Group Inc. Until the transition is finalized, Leitner’s New York City office will operate as Leitner Group, now part of BBG. Joel Leitner, founder of the Leitner Group, will continue to lease the New York office and work closely with Susan Kominski, BBG’s Eastern Region senior managing director. The affiliation provides Leitner Group with a national footprint, as well as BBG’s branding and advanced technology platform. Additionally, the merger strengthens both firms’ capacity to take on large portfolio assignments.
