Mercury Business Associates to Relocate to 111 East Avenue in Norwalk, CT Choyce Peterson Negotiates 2,150 Square Foot Lease

111 East Avenue, Norwalk, CT

Choyce Peterson, Inc. (www.choycepeterson.com), a full service commercial real estate brokerage firm, announced the successful conclusion of lease negotiations on behalf of Mercury Business Associates (Mercury) (www.mercury-biz.com), a financial and accounting support services company, for their 2,150 square foot headquarters office at 111 East Avenue in Norwalk, CT. The Choyce Peterson team representing Mercury in this transaction consisted of Vice Presidents Charlene O’Connell and Scott Peterson, and Associate James Riffice.

Having previously met during a local Chamber of Commerce event, the team at Choyce Peterson reached out to Michele Johnson, owner of Mercury, regarding her upcoming lease expiration. Given her business’s growth and increase in staff, Johnson was interested in obtaining an update on the Norwalk office market. Johnson appointed Choyce Peterson to thoroughly evaluate the market and lead her and her team on numerous building tours in the Norwalk area.

After considering various offices and assessing multiple offers from area landlords, Johnson selected the semi-furnished space at 111 East Avenue and O’Connell negotiated a lease including a competitive rental rate and a landlord-funded customization of the space to meet Mercury’s needs.

O’Connell commented, “It was truly a pleasure working with Michele and her team on this project. We are pleased to have negotiated a lease that grants Mercury a customized, showcase office space with plenty of natural light, ample parking and easy access to I-95.”

Johnson responded, “Charlene and her team made the decision to move versus renewing in place easier than I ever could have hoped. By showing me various alternatives and negotiating a competitive lease, I am confident that I made the best decision for my business. My team and I look forward to enjoying our new office space and continuing to grow our business.”

The landlord, Melbourne Realty Co., was represented by Natalie Mazzola and Monica Osorio of Realty ONE Group.
