A&G Real Estate Partners has retained the real estate group at Houlihan Lokey Inc. to assist the Company in its efforts to seize fast-emerging opportunities in today's turbulent commercial real estate markets. The global investment bank is actively searching for investment partners to provide growth capital that will enable A&G to launch complementary new products and offerings. A&G is on the front lines of lease restructuring, lease disposition and portfolio-optimization across all sectors of real estate.

Most recently, the New York-based firm has completed or continues to work on successful projects for, among others, Rite Aid, Cineworld (Regal U.S.), Party City, David's Bridal, Bed Bath & Beyond/buybuy BABY, Sprouts and franchisees for several major restaurant chains, including Burger King, Hardee's and Denny's. Demand for good real estate in distressed situations has continued to fuel A&G's business in recent years.
