Prudential Georgia Realty is pleased to announce that Joan Arazny is the new Marketing Manager for the New Homes Division. Directed by Lori Lane, the Prudential Georgia New Homes Division currently oversees sales and marketing for 26 communities throughout metro Atlanta.

Arazny is an award-winning marketing and project management professional with more than 15 years of experience in developing state-of-the-art concepts, generating consumer demand to drive sales and amplifying the visibility of products and services for public, private, and governmental clients in diverse industries. She previously worked for Atlanta-based new home marketing firms Idea Associates and Marketing Results. Arazny has spearheaded high-impact strategic plans and multimedia campaigns with great success and will be a valuable asset for Prudential Georgia moving forward.

Lane says, “We are delighted to have Joan join our team. She possesses a wealth of knowledge in the new homes field and we look forward to her putting that experience to work for our builders and communities.”

Arazny joins a stellar team at Prudential Georgia that has seen continued success, even in the still-recovering housing market. President and CEO Dan Forsman has kept the company at the top of its game and continues to provide valuable insight into the ever-changing real estate market. Lori Lane, director of New Homes Sales & Marketing at Prudential Georgia, has also been an integral part of the company’s overall success. As the full-service real estate firm continues to grow, it expects to carry over momentum from last year that led to the Atlanta Business Chronicle naming Prudential Georgia the top Atlanta real estate company based on gross residential sales volume in 2010.

According to Trendgraphix, Prudential Georgia Realty has consistently gained more market share than any large brokerage and is ranked first in transactions, buyers and listing inventory for 2010 in all FMLS counties.

Other Atlanta real estate businesses are certainly taking notice of Prudential Georgia’s success. The company recently finalized a deal to do sales and marketing for Reynolds at The Canoe Club and Haddonstone, two of the group’s signature communities in Fayetteville, Ga.
