“I look forward to the opportunity to serve the advisors and investors who have placed their trust in URTI,” commented Buehler. “After historic lows in both interest rates and capitalization rates we may now face a shifting landscape, and I believe URTI’s dual investment strategy is well positioned to meet investor expectations.”
