Polunsky Beitel Green LLP, one of the nation’s largest transactional residential mortgage lending law firms, has added Jeanine LaMay Kay to its business development team, according to a company announcement.
Based in the firm’s Dallas office, Kay will work with attorneys and client service teams to deepen existing client relationships and support national growth efforts. The move continues the expansion of Polunsky Beitel Green (PBG)’s growth-focused staff following the addition of Kimberly Friesenhahn to the business development team in February.
Kay brings more than 20 years of experience across residential real estate, mortgage lending, title insurance and homebuilding, with a background in strategic growth, channel partnerships and client relationship management.
Most recently, she spent more than a decade at 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty, a division of Frontdoor Inc., where she served as vice president of business development. In that role, she oversaw revenue and growth for the central region and some of the company’s largest national builder accounts. She helped to more than triple the company’s Texas market share over five years from less than 5% to more than 15%, according to the announcement.
Before joining 2-10, Kay held a series of leadership roles at First American Financial Corp. over roughly 10 years, spanning national accounts, sales operations, market intelligence and strategic initiatives.
“Jeanine has a proven track record of building high-performing teams and driving growth in complex, relationship-driven markets,” PBG principal Marty Green said in the announcement. “Her experience across the homebuilder and title insurance industries gives a broad perspective that will serve our clients well as we continue to grow.”
“I’ve watched PBG’s name come up again and again across the homebuilding and lending world as a firm people trust,” Kay said. “Making the move here felt like a natural next step, and I’m excited to help the firm deepen those relationships even further.”
Kay holds an MBA from the Paul Merage School of Business at the University of California at Irvine, and a bachelor’s degree in finance from the University of Idaho. She also holds a Property & Casualty Insurance License from the Texas Department of Insurance, serves on the executive board of HomeAid North Texas and previously served on the board of Professional Women in Building for the Dallas Builders Association.
