For 20 years, Gibson Sotheby’s International Realty has grown alongside the communities we serve — expanding our reach, deepening our expertise, and earning trust through every market cycle. What began as a locally rooted brokerage has grown into a globally connected real estate brand, trusted to represent our clients wherever their real estate journey takes them.
In 2006, Larry Rideout and Paul McGann purchased the firm and affiliated it with Sotheby’s International Realty®, building on a legacy that began in 1962 when pioneering broker Betty Gibson founded Betty Gibson Associates. Today, the company remains independently owned and operated by Larry and Paul, continuing a tradition of local leadership and deep community roots.
In real estate, trust is built long before the transaction. It’s earned through local knowledge, thoughtful guidance, and relationships that often span generations.
Throughout the year, we’ll share 20 Stories of Trust — a video series celebrating the agents, relationships, and moments that have defined Gibson Sotheby’s International Realty over the past two decades. These stories highlight the advisors behind our company and the clients who turn to them for guidance through some of life’s most important decisions.
