Bank Hires Leader to Expand Commercial Real Estate Segment
FAIRFAX, Va., July 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The Freedom Bank of Virginia ("Freedom Bank") announced today that it has hired Jeffrey Aleshire as Senior Vice President and Commercial Real Estate Practice Leader. In his role, Jeff will lead the Commercial Real Estate Team and will plan, direct, organize and carry out growth strategies to best serve clients in the commercial and investor residential real estate segments.

"We are pleased to welcome Jeff Aleshire to Freedom Bank. Jeff is an experienced banker with extensive commercial real estate expertise and a great advisor to clients and mentor to colleagues. I have had the pleasure of previously working with Jeff and have seen first-hand the level of client service and industry knowledge he brings to our company and our clients.
