The promotions come on the heels of the promotion of DeAnn Golden to president and CEO. 

The acquisition of Avalon Real Estate Partners brings a new specialty product type to Walker & Dunlop’s investment-sales division, the company said. 

Association members wishing to be added to the slate of nominees must file a petition by Aug. 31. 

The former executive’s dual role was split in two. 

DeAnn Golden replaces Dan Forsman, who was made chairman after helming the brokerage for almost 40 years. 

The new senior managing director will help guide the real estate firm’s investment-management expansion. 

The residential-brokerage franchisor announced a host of company-wide steps it is taking to grow its business. 

The incoming executive replaces Lee Arberg, who retired from the position after 25 years. 

The new agents will continue to serve clients at Sugar Land, Texas-based RE/MAX Fine Properties, while growing their business in Atlanta. 

The new executive previously served as senior vice president of Stream Realty Partners, where he helped oversee investment and development strategy at Centennial Yards South. 

The homebuilder’s former vice president first came to Avanta Residential in 2020 as a consultant. 

Those promoted will be tasked with growing the company’s business in Atlanta as well as throughout Georgia and North Carolina. 

The new executive replaces Collier’s longtime market leader, Bob Mathews, who is transitioning to an advisory role as executive chairman. 

Raman Muralidharan, Anand Cavale and Arun Tripathi are joining Guaranteed Rate as part of an effort to significantly expand the company’s offering of financial products.

The new office will be the firm’s 28th location in metro Atlanta and North Georgia. 

To support the promotion, Buckhead agent Nick LaMonte will become assistant sales manager at the firm’s Buckhead office.
