Kuklish Appointed Senior V.P. to Head Operations in Fast-growing Regional
                              Transportation Hub

    SACRAMENTO, Calif., Aug. 28 /PRNewswire/ -- PM Realty Group, one of the
country's leading full-service commercial real estate firms, today announced
the opening of a Sacramento office at Wells Fargo Tower, 400 Capital Mall, to
better serve clients throughout Northern California and the Pacific Northwest.
To head the new office, PM Realty Group has appointed R. Scott Kuklish to the
position of senior vice president-Northwest Region.
    As part of the Northwest Region, the Sacramento office provides
operational support and business development resources to PM Realty Group
offices in Honolulu, Denver, San Francisco and Seattle, and draws on the full
range of expertise and resources of the national real estate services firm.
Its commitment to the Sacramento market allows PM Realty Group to offer
institutional-quality property services to local property owners, developers
and corporations.
    "We are pleased to extend our high quality service capabilities to clients
in Sacramento, and with the appointment of Scott Kuklish, we are confident
that the new office will meet our demanding standards of client service and
satisfaction," said James A. Proehl, senior vice president and director of the
Western Division of PM Realty Group.  "Scott's experience as an
entrepreneurial developer and property manager, along with his reputation and
contacts in the Sacramento market, will ensure our success in the region."
    "Sacramento is rapidly becoming a top-tier market due to its attractive
business climate and high quality of life," Kuklish said.  "We're seeing a lot
of companies moving here from San Francisco and Silicon Valley because
Sacramento offers a relatively low cost of living, less traffic congestion,
available land for development and a well-educated workforce.  "These factors
help explain why the region's population is expected to double by 2010."
    "Establishing a local presence in Sacramento allows us to address the
needs of clients in a market that is growing rapidly," said Rick Kirk,
president of PM Realty Group.  "As clients become increasingly interested in
Sacramento, we will be in a position to offer them the same high-quality
service that they have come to expect from us across the country."
