Ryan Acquires Hucke and Associates,

Ryan has acquired Hucke and Associates for an undisclosed amount.

This corporate acquisition sees Ryan, a global tax services and software provider, integrate a specialized real property tax consulting firm known for its deep expertise in the New York market.

Hucke and Associates, established in 2001, has built a reputation for representing property owners in all five boroughs of New York City, New York State, and across the US.

The firm offers clients the opportunity to file professionally executed appeals with local jurisdictions.

Its principals bring over 50 combined years of experience from both the public sector, including roles as Assessors for the New York City Department of Finance and the New York City Tax Commission, and the private sector.

Founding principal Peter Hucke is a former Director of the New York City Tax Commission and was instrumental in developing the assessment guidelines currently used by NYC Assessors.

He also serves on the Tax Commission Board of Tax Policies.

This strategic acquisition is expected to significantly expand Ryan's property tax service offerings, particularly strengthening its presence and specialized expertise in the complex New York real estate market.

The integration of Hucke and Associates' profound local market knowledge and specialized appeal processes with Ryan's broader platform aims to provide enhanced value and comprehensive solutions to clients seeking property tax optimization.

This move represents Ryan buying a firm with established local relationships and a proven track record.

The combined entity is poised to offer an expanded suite of property tax services, leveraging Hucke and Associates' specialized New York expertise within Ryan's extensive global framework.

This acquisition is anticipated to solidify Ryan's position as a leading provider of property tax consulting services, particularly for clients with complex real estate portfolios in key urban markets.
