•2 min read

Marcus Partners, a vertically integrated real estate investment, management, and development firm, announced January 6 that it has opened an Atlanta office and hired Casey Barber as Senior Vice President, Investments. Barber will lead the firm's continued real estate acquisition efforts in the Southeast alongside Partner Andrew Dolinsky.

The Atlanta office opening represents a strategic re-entry to the market after Marcus Partners invested in the Southeast in previous fund vintages. The expansion comes on the heels of the firm's acquisition earlier this year of the 287-unit Heights at Shadowood apartment complex.

Strategic Southeast Real Estate Development Focus

Marcus Partners views the Southeast as a high-potential region to expand its vertically integrated investment platform across industrial real estate and multifamily real estate asset classes.

"Casey brings exceptional sourcing capabilities, deep market knowledge, and a proven track record of executing complex transactions across the Southeast," said Andrew Dolinsky, Partner of Marcus Partners. "His relationships, investment discipline, and leadership experience make him the ideal person to establish and scale our presence in Atlanta."

Casey Barber's Real Estate Acquisition Experience

Barber brings extensive experience spanning acquisitions, capital markets, asset strategy, team leadership, and partner engagement across major Sunbelt markets. Over his career, he closed the acquisition of more than 140 properties totaling over $8.0 billion in transaction volume.

Barber joins Marcus Partners from RPM Living, where he most recently served as Senior Vice President of Investments. Prior to RPM Living, Barber spent nearly a decade at Carroll Organization. He is a graduate of the University of Georgia's Terry College of Business with a BBA in Real Estate (Cum Laude).

Marcus Partners' Multifamily and Industrial Real Estate Portfolio

Marcus Partners is headquartered in Boston, with regional offices in Metro New York and the Mid-Atlantic. The firm has a 30-plus-year history of successful investment, management, and real estate development.

The firm pursues strategic and opportunistic investment strategies across industrial, multifamily, and other property types where it can create value and maximize risk-adjusted returns. Marcus Partners and its affiliates currently own, control, operate, or are developing more than 8 million square feet of real estate and 4,100-plus multifamily units.
