BETHESDA, MD—Transwestern is deepening its capital markets bench with the addition of Joe Friedman and Julian Etches as managing directors. Friedman and Etches are joining from Avison Young. At Transwestern, they will serve the firm's institutional clients throughout the Mid-Atlantic region.
Three years ago Friedman founded the capital markets platform at McShea & Co., which was acquired last year by Avison Young. Under Friedman's leadership, the group completed 13 disposition transactions valued in excess of $75 million. Friedman has more than 10 years of capital markets experience in the area, including a tenure at Transwestern at one point.
Etches joined McShea in 2008, tasked with opening a new office for the firm in Washington County, MD. It was a new jurisdiction for both McShea and Etches and over the next four years the platform produced more than $20 million worth of leasing transactions and more than $75 million in sales transactions.
