CBRE today announced it has acquired Millman National Land Services, a leading provider of commercial land surveying services across the United States.

Millman, headquartered in Canton, OH, provides full-scale land services nationally, including American Land Title Association (ALTA)/National Society of Professional Surveyors (NSPS) surveys, telecommunications/cell tower surveys, zoning reports and real estate compliance solutions.

The acquisition of Millman provides CBRE with the opportunity to provide ALTA/NSPS survey capabilities to clients directly—the top standard for all land surveys—as part of its Assessment and Consulting Services (ACS) team within Valuation and Advisory Services (VAS).

“Millman has state-of-the-art technology and an innovative business model that delivers services efficiently, consistently and accurately. Their people will enhance our national team of engineers, architects and environmental scientists that provide expert assessments to help our clients make informed investment decisions,” said Tom Edwards, Global President of VAS for CBRE.

Millman’s 75 employees, including those located in the firm’s Querétaro, Mexico office, will fully integrate with CBRE’s ACS team. Vincent Macauda, President and General Counsel, will continue to run the incoming team’s operations as a Managing Director for CBRE.

“We are excited for what our joining with CBRE brings to our clients, which will enable them to have access to comprehensive transactional real estate due diligence services in a true one-stop shop approach,” said Mr. Macauda.

Carleton McKenna & Co. served as exclusive sell-side representative, Baker & Hostetler LLP acted as legal counsel and Martinet Recchia Inc. performed tax and accounting advising to Millman. Sheppard, Mullin, Richter & Hampton LLP acted as legal counsel for CBRE.
