Weichert, Realtors Names Co-President

James Weichert Jr., son of Weichert, Realtors president and founder Jim Weichert, is moving up in the family business, the company announced.

Working alongside his father as co-president, James will be responsible for growing the firm’s business while providing its customers with “an exceptional, full-service experience through Weichert’s mortgage, title and insurance companies,” Weichert, Realtors said in a release.

Weichert Jr. has spent his career working up through the company’s ranks, starting as a sales associate in its Jersey City/Exchange Place office. From there, he moved on to Weichert New Homes, where he worked to increase the company’s representation of larger, urban-oriented developments.

Throughout his ascent, he has also held the roles of regional VP and CFO, working closely with his father along the way.

“I look forward with great pride and pleasure to working side by side with James as he continues to develop the astute business sense and strategic outlook that have already provided important perspective to our operations throughout the company,” the older Weichert said.
