Jones Lang LaSalle has unveiled a first-quarter net loss of $61 mln or $1.78 per share, mostly due to expenses relating to its 2008 acquisition of Dallas-based The Staubach Co. and the German retail real estate services firm Kemper's. This compares to a profit of $2.8 mln for the year-earlier period, the Chicago-based company said on Tuesday.
Swiss real estate group Investis has boosted its real estate holdings with the CHF 139 mln (€149 mln) purchase of prime residential properties in Vaud canton.
