The transaction included the establishment of a long-term strategic partnership between RCGT and JLL, with the signing of mutual service agreements. JLL is expected to benefit from RCGT’s advisory services, while JLL will become an important strategic partner to RCGT and its clients.

“These highly respected market leaders joining our team will help JLL bring added value to our clients, while expanding our reach in the province of Quebec and tapping into additional industries,” JLL Canada CEO Brett Miller said.
