Amidst hard work and dedication, 2016 marked a year of

the past ten years we have had the pleasure of working with the
best sales associates in the industry. It is amazing to see how
much our team has grown over this time and we look forward to
another ten years of success,” commented President/Co-Owner
Paul McGann.
After this record breaking year, Gibson Sotheby’s International
Realty has no intention of slowing down. With the opening of a new
and larger office space in Charlestown, as well as a renovated office in
the South end, the firm’s mindset is solely on growth and bettering
the services that they offer to agents and clients.

maintain their success but further it. “We will continue to be
innovative, creative, and above all maintain our legacy of teamwork
and family. The best is yet to be,” closed Rideout.
