Peerage Realty Partners is not immune to some of the recent leadership shakeups seen across the housing industry. On Wednesday, the firm announced that longtime CEO Gavin Swartzman had officially retired from his role on Monday.
Swartzman is being replaced by Tara Brown, who has served as the president of Peerage Group Sotheby’s International Realty and as a member of the Peerage Realty Partners executive committee since joining Peerage in June 2024. Brown will continue to hold these roles along with her appointment as CEO.
“We are fortunate to have someone of Tara’s calibre to take the helm of Peerage Realty Partners as Gavin retires,” Miles S. Nadal, the founding executive chair of Peerage Capital, said in a statement. “It speaks to our deep bench strength as an organization, and it ensures our momentum will continue seamlessly.”
Brown has two-plus decades of leadership experience with a variety of brands and industries, including Procter & Gamble, Johnson & Johnson and Keurig Dr Pepper. Most recently, she served as global chief marketing officer for Maesa, a Bain Capital portfolio beauty company.
“I would like to thank the Peerage Realty Partners team for their continued dedication, and particularly, Gavin, for generously sharing his expertise and years of service,” Brown said in a statement. “I am truly excited about partnering with all the exceptional leaders across Peerage Realty Partners, building with our passionate teams, and supporting the dedicated advisors across North America as we embark on the next phase of growth.”
