Realtors Wanted! MA North Shore and NH Seacoast

Tired of working for a company that looks after itself instead of you?

Newburyport Area. Rockport, Ipswich, Portsmouth. Exeter.

Yes, it’s come to that. Time to go forward with a new brokerage that understands how to communicate with people, is responsive, and, most importantly, doesn’t view each client as a commission, but rather puts their needs first.

This is not about taking listings that you can’t sell to find buyers and talk them into buying something else. I don’t want that kind of real estate agent, I don’t want salespeople; I want genuine people who do the best for their clients. It all comes back to you in the long run if you are willing to focus on the client rather than on yourself. Ethics and honesty above all.

If you are the right kind of person, I’ll promote you and get your name out there. You’ll be surprised how well we can do that. We have the lenders, the attorneys, the home inspectors who jump for our clients, so if you do your job, things will get done smoothly and efficiently. We have clients, great compensation, and serious marketing know-how.

If you are new to the business but have the right attitude we’ll stand by you and help you grow. We know we have to promote YOU, not the company. If you have lots of experience but aren’t happy where you are, we have a lot to offer. But above all, you must know how to put your clients’ interests first. If this appeals to you, please tell me why you think we might be a good fit.

This is a great opportunity for great Realtors to join a dynamic new company.

Historical Information

Georgian (1725-1785)

The Georgian building period spanned from 1725 to 1785, during the Revolutionary War at which time commerce, trade and building were disrupted although, the number of houses during this period increased from 393 to 616. Georgian period houses are characterized by heavy classical ornamental details, a 2-storey facade and gambrel roof. The Dalton house located on State Street is the most prominent example in Newburyport.

64 Liberty Street is located directly across from the William Bartlett House, built in 1797. Barlett was born in Newburyport in 1746, a wealthy merchant who owned a shipping fleet that traded with the West Indies and the the continent. He owned Bartlett's Pier at the end of Federal Street.

Bartlett was influenced by George Whitfield, the popular British born Evangelical Minister who preached at the Old South Meeting House. He funded the Whitefield Cenotaph, a beatiful Greek revival urn on a high marble base located inside the church. The urn was designed by prominent Philadelphia Architect William Strickland, Highlighting the importance of Newburyport trade wtih other American ports along the East Coast.
