Behind the Deal: Marcus & Millichap’s Acquisition of Metropolitan Capital Advisors

Real estate firm Marcus & Millichap, with offices across the U.S. and Canada, is expanding its finance coverage with the acquisition of Dallas-based Metropolitan Capital Advisors.  Founded about 30 years ago, MCA is a real estate finance intermediary specializing in arranging debt and equity for commercial real estate on behalf of developers, investors, and owners.

As part of the deal, which closed last month, the MCA name will go away, and the company will be absorbed into Marcus & Millichap Capital Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Marcus & Millichap.
