DALLAS (April 10, 2014) – SRS Real Estate Partners has welcomed two new team members to the Southeast Investment Sales Team in the Atlanta office. John Topping and Robert Drake are the newest additions to the team led by Kyle Stonis and Pierce Mayson.

John Topping joins SRS as associate in the Atlanta office. He comes to SRS from Marcus & Millichap where he specialized in single tenant auto parts retailers. Topping was also in charge of single tenant transactions 8,000 square feet and larger and focused on the Sandy Springs, Alpharetta, Marietta, and Dunwoody markets. During his time there, he presented to investors on the current standing and forecasted direction of auto parts retailers in the marketplace.
Robert Drake joins SRS as an investment sales analyst in the Atlanta office with past experience in the financial services and insurance brokerage industries. He previously worked at State Farm where he was responsible for health and life insurance sales, business-to-business insurance sales, and financial services sales.
