Representing Tenants and Buyers can make you famous in Atlanta?

Everyday I work with organizations in locating new offices or commercial buildings. It can be very hard and enjoyable work, and make you a little famous!

The below articles are the result of a referral from the Atlanta Care Center, who I owe many thanks.

The Association for Clinical Pastoral Education has purchased a building near the square in downtown Decatur for $1 million, and plans to replace it with a LEED certified building or completely renovate it. Atlanta-based Bull Realty represented the non-profit in the transaction.

Pastoral Care Non Profit Buys McKinney Building

The Association for Clinical Pastoral Education Inc. (ACPE) has purchased the 15,068 square foot office building formerly known as The McKinney Building near the Decatur Square. The building will either be completely renovated or demolished and a new LEED Certified building will be built in its place.

The $1.025M purchase was made possible entirely through donations to the non-profit organization ACPE. The property was listed by Gene Kansas Development. The purchaser was represented by Rick Ferguson, with Bull Realty whose practice focuses on working with office buyers and tenants.

The Association for Clinical Pastoral Education, Inc. is a multicultural, multi-faith organization devoted to providing education and improving the quality of ministry and pastoral care offered by spiritual caregivers of all faiths through the clinical educational methods of Clinical Pastoral Education.

It was important for the organization to be in a vibrant downtown area that is pedestrian friendly and culturally diverse. Also playing a major part in the site selection was the close proximity to the Emory University campus.

"The ACPE which provides education and provides pastoral care to spiritual caregivers plans to relocate from their current Clairmont Road office to a newly designed and built LEED Certified building," said Ferguson. "Adding to Decatur's fine education institutions, this new landmark facility will house the association's Academy for Continuing Education, a conference center and their national administrative office."
