MAA Chief Says Merger with Colonial Properties Proceeding Smoothly

Eric Bolton, chairman and CEO of apartment REIT MAA (NYSE: MAA), joined REIT.com for a video interview at the St. Regis Hotel in Washington, D.C. during NAREIT’s 2014 Washington Leadership Forum.

Last year MAA merged with Colonial Properties Trust. Bolton was asked to describe the progress of the merger.

“The process is going very well. We’re well into the integration of the back office systems. We expect to have almost all the systems complete by the time we get to late spring, early summer,” Bolton explained.
