LAS VEGAS, Sept. 23, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MVP REIT Inc. announced today the acquisition of a 22,000-square-foot medical and professional office building in Las Vegas, Nev. The $6.4 million acquisition is part of a five-property, $48.6 million portfolio being acquired by MVP REIT. The acquisition closed on September 16, 2013.
