Two Atlanta RE/MAX brokerages recently added to their ranks, with RE/MAX Premier bringing in one agent and RE/MAX Around Atlanta hiring two.

Peter Beckford, who discusses metro Atlanta residential real estate trends on the podcasts Gametime Radio and The 13th Floor, joined RE/MAX Premier from Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Georgia Properties.

RE/MAX Around Atlanta brought on Erin Napier and Jim Jenks, bringing the firm’s total number of new hires and returning agents over the last year to 18.

Napier is an Atlanta native and is new to the industry.

Jenks is originally from Wisconsin and has been in real estate for just over four years, during which time he earned a Top 20% award from his former brokerage firm.

Beckford, who has a background in healthcare and holds a doctorate in pharmacy and pharmaceutical sciences from Howard University, was recognized by the Atlanta REALTORS Association as a top producer while at BHHS.
