HOUSTON - In one of the largest real estate assignments of 1998, PM Realty Group today announced that it has been awarded the exclusive national portfolio management assignment for a 28-property, multi-product portfolio spanning 3,850,000 square feet.

Awarded by PHL-OPCO L.P., the portfolio consists of office, retail and industrial properties located in Kentucky, Maryland, Ohio, Texas, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, Kansas and California.

According to Rick Kirk, President of PM Realty Group, "This assignment represents a significant validation of our strategic plan and commitment to providing a full spectrum of real estate services. The awarding of this assignment is a result of the endeavors of every division of the company."

Jimmy Gunn, Executive Vice President of PM Realty Group's Property Services division, states that the firm was ideally suited for this assignment due to its infrastructure and experience in transitioning large, geographically dispersed portfolios.

"In addition to our national presence and reputation for performance, we have the local market knowledge, relationships and presence to quickly staff and transition this portfolio," said Gunn. "Through the application of state-of-the-art technologies, proven transition programs and management procedures, we will be able to address portfolio needs on both a national and local market level."

Gunn also noted that PM Realty Group provided an array of valuation and consulting services to the buyer for this assignment.
