LAS VEGAS, July 9, 2018 (Newswire.com) - San Francisco-based JMA Ventures LLC ("JMA") announced today that it recently closed on the purchase of five class A&B office buildings totaling approximately 271,000 square feet in the Green Valley portion of Henderson, Nevada, from American Nevada Company (“ANC”).
