National multifamily developer Alliance Residential Co. has expanded its regional structure to capitalize on the momentum of deals in the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast. Under the new structure, the Southeast Division will comprise the Georgia and Tennessee regions, while the Carolina region will move under the newly established Mid-Atlantic Division.
“As we embark on this new chapter, we reflect on the incredible achievements of the Southeast Division thus far,” said Brian Austin, chief operating officer, East. “This change represents not only a structural shift but also a renewed commitment to excellence, collaboration, and community impact.”
Previously managing director for Georgia and Tennessee, Noah Randall will lead the restructured Southeast Division, while Donald Santos, who led the Carolinas, will head the Mid-Atlantic Division. Vice presidents of construction Wayne Edy and Hunter Buck will lead construction efforts in the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic, respectively.
Alliance Residential also announced several other personnel advancements and milestones as part of the division restructuring.
In the Southeast, Carter Brehm has been promoted to development director for the Georgia region. Since joining the developer in 2021, he has been involved in the development of over 2,500 multifamily units across the Atlanta and Tennessee markets, including newly opened The Weldon by Broadstone in McDonough, Georgia.
Stephen Keller will continue as development director for the Tennessee region. Since joining the developer in 2019, he has executed over 2,100 multifamily units across the Atlanta and Tennessee regions. His most recent delivery is Broadstone Berry Hill in Nashville, with an additional 600 units in the capitalized pipeline.
Andrew Howe will continue to serve as development director for the Carolinas. He joined Alliance Residential in 2018 and has been involved in the development of over 5,600 multifamily units throughout the Carolinas. This includes the recently delivered Broadstone West End in Charlotte, with an additional 2,000 units in the capitalized pipeline.
“We have a healthy and diverse pipeline of projects across the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic, positioning Alliance for continued growth in both regions,” added Austin. “Our teams are actively advancing new deals, and the establishment of dedicated Southeast and Mid-Atlantic divisions has only strengthened that momentum.”
Headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona, Alliance Residential is active in 16 states and 30 metros. It ranked No. 8 on the National Multifamily Housing Council’s top 25 developers list of 2025 and No. 29 on the top 50 owners list, with over 35,000 units as of Jan. 1.
