HARTFORD, Conn., June 16, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via PRWEB - Propark America ("Propark") is pleased to announce its participation a joint-venture ("JV") focused on the parking real estate sector. The "JV" is focused on acquiring off-market, cash flowing parking assets in the United States over the next three years.

Two Propark senior executives, David Schmid and Tom Bechard, alongside with Rick Baxter the CEO of Parkit [TSX-V: PKT, OTCQX: PKTEF] will form the group that will be responsible for the day-to-day operations and management of the JV.

David Schmid, Chief investment Officer of Propark, said: "Many real estate owners perceive attached parking facilities as a necessary property amenity, but disproportionately focus on their core asset, be it a hotel, office or retail property. We leverage our parking expertise and experience to optimize cash flows from attached parking, resulting in increased economic value of the overall property. At the same time we are able to increase service levels, which lead to a better customer experience, a win-win situation for the property owner and us."
