Deloitte Corporate Finance LLC advises Butler Burgher Group LLC on its recapitalization with Silver Oak Services Partners LLC

CHARLOTTE, N.C., September 16, 2015 — Deloitte Corporate Finance LLC (DCF) acted as exclusive financial advisor to Butler Burgher Group LLC (BBG) on its recapitalization with Silver Oak Services Partners LLC (Silver Oak). The acquisition closed on July 1, 2015.

Founded in 1992 and headquartered in Dallas, Texas, BBG is one of the largest national independent providers of commercial real estate appraisals, appraisal management services, assessments, and related consulting advisory services. DCF has advised BBG on strategic alternatives since 2013. Since then, BBG has grown its operational infrastructure and expanded its geographic presence, including the acquisition of New York-based Leitner Group Inc. in 2014.

“DCF was a key financial and strategic advisor to BBG throughout our acquisition of Leitner Group and the recapitalization of the company with Silver Oak. We are thrilled with the results of these processes and the guidance from DCF’s team,” said Diane Butler, chief executive officer of Butler Burgher Group.

“We enjoyed working with Diane Butler and the rest of the team at BBG to help position the company for its next stage of growth. With an evolving regulatory environment, there is a growing need for independence in the commercial real estate valuation space, and BBG helps meet this need. Helping BBG partner with the experienced team at Silver Oak to seize new opportunities has been gratifying,” said Phil Colaco, managing director and Business Services group lead, Deloitte Corporate Finance LLC.
