RALEIGH, N.C., March 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Orleans Homes Raleigh Division is pleased to announce that Jeb Koury has accepted the role of vice president of sales and marketing for the company's Raleigh Division.

In his role, Mr. Koury will lead the planning and execution of sales and marketing initiatives in the Raleigh Division, while working closely with Mitch Sanner, president of the division, to support the company's overall vision and promote Orleans' continued expansion in the region.

"I love this business but was particularly drawn to the culture at Orleans," Jeb explains. "The strength of the leadership and the company-wide dedication to delivering a truly happy experience to both customers and employees has the company poised for success, and I'm thrilled to be a part of it."

An industry veteran, Mr. Koury brings to the company over 38 years of real estate experience.
