Prudential Named Top Agency
For the second consecutive year, Rocky Hill-based Prudential Connecticut Realty was singled out as the best real estate agency in the Greater Hartford area by Hartford Magazine in its Best of Hartford 2005 Readers’ Poll. The results of the poll were published in the current issue of Hartford Magazine, the city’s premiere lifestyle magazine.
The readers of Hartford Magazine were asked to vote on who and what businesses deserved to be recognized for being the best. The poll consisted of a survey about places and people that readers found to be the most worthy of their time, money and attention. The categories of winners ranged from Best Real Estate Agency to the Best Restaurant.
“We are delighted that we were named the best real estate company in Hartford County for the second year,” said Candace Adams, president of Prudential Connecticut Realty. “We make customer service a top priority and this poll shows that we are meeting out customers’ needs by providing them with the best service possible.”
The Hartford Magazine stated, “You may as well start baking that welcome-to-the-neighborhood apple pie the day you see one of those blue-and-white signs pop up at your next-door neighbor’s house.”
