One of the country’s largest commercial real estate brokerages, Marcus & Millichap Real Estate Investment Services, has named a new president and chief executive.

John J. Kerin, 54, will replace Harvey Green at the helm of the company July 1. Green announced his pending retirement in April after leading the company for a decade. Marcus & Millichap is headquartered in Palo Alto, but Green directs operations from his base in the Encino office and so will Kerin.

Kerin joined the company in 1981 as an agent and rose through the ranks. He has been regional manager of the Los Angeles office and was named managing director in 1996.
