RISMEDIA, September 15, 2009—Prudential Preferred Properties and Rubloff announced the merger of Rubloff Residential Properties with Prudential Preferred Properties. The combined company will operate as Prudential Rubloff Properties, an independently owned and operated firm with 17 offices and nearly 900 sales professionals and staff.
The merger bonds two of Chicago’s most respected firms whose distinguished roots trace back nearly 80 years.
