EAST GREENWICH, RI, USA, February 12, 2019 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Commonwealth Real Estate (http://commonmoves.com) today announced a merger with a prominent Rhode Island real estate agency, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Gammons Realty, which has served the entire state of Rhode Island, Southeastern MA and part of Connecticut since its founding in 2001.
The announcement was made by Commonwealth Founding Partner, George Patsio, and Gammons Realty founder, Allen B. Gammons, Jr. Under the terms of the partnership, the Gammons Realty team of 35 real estate professionals will remain with the new and merged entity.
