Jeeb O’Reilly and team jumped ship for Aaron Kirman’s team at Pacific Union International. The move puts O’Reilly and her team back under the umbrella of Compass, which bought Pacific Union in late August. The team returned to Elliman from Compass in early 2017, two years after leaving Elliman for the venture-backed firm.

Just as O’Reilly’s team leaves, Douglas Elliman is bringing in new blood to help expand their L.A. business. The company hired Paige Gordon as executive manager of sales at its Malibu office and Bradley Feldman at the same position for its South Orange County offices, according to a press release. Gordon comes from Agents of L.A., a boutique brokerage based in Westlake Village.

Cushman & Wakefield also promoted Jeffrey Cole to Vice Chair in the Capital Markets Group from his position as Executive Managing Director. Cole is based in the company’s Orange County office and has been with Cushman & Wakefield for over a decade. Cole completed $1.9 billion in transactions last year across 26 deals.

Calmwater Capital has added Jeremy Burton as director of originations at its L.A. office. Burton was previously a vice president at Garrison Investment Group, based in New York. He will lead sourcing, underwriting, and execution of loan opportunities. He’ll also work in the firm’s Midwest, Texas, and Southeast markets.

Lee & Associates has promoted Chris Johnson to Senior Vice President.
