William Pitt Sotheby’s International Realty announced that the company has acquired the assets of Nicholas H. Fingelly Real Estate in Southport and Westport. Both companies will now operate under the name William Pitt Sotheby’s International Realty.

William Pitt Sotheby’s International Realty will now maintain two brokerage locations in each of the towns, keeping open Fingelly’s offices at 251 Main St. in Southport and 1265 Post Road East in Westport, as well as its own at 250 Pequot Ave. in Southport and 199 Post Road East in Westport. Fingelly’s 67 sales associates will still be based out of their existing offices, including principals Cathy, Ginny and Vicky Fingelly, who will also continue with the firm as sales associates.

"This new association brings our clients and agents a level of reach that was not previously available to them," the Fingellys said in a statement.

"Joining forces with Nicholas H. Fingelly Real Estate is a move that makes perfect sense for our company, as we seek to expand our business in these sought-after markets with the addition of the best possible agents,"  Paul Breunich, president and CEO of William Pitt Sotheby’s International Realty, said in the statement.
