Newtown Country Realty Expands

Clare K. Miller, owner-broker of Newtown Country Realty, announces that Patricia A. Linnell of Newtown has joined the company as her partner.

Mrs Linnell formerly managed Weichert Realtors of Ridgefield and Century 21-Scalzo of Newtown. She has been a realtor since 1988, serving clients in the Newtown, greater Danbury, and Southbury areas. She has served on the Newtown Board of Realtors in various capacities, including board president in 1998. She was selected as Realtor of the Year in 1998 and earned her GRI (Graduate, Realtor Institute), ABR (Accredited Buyer Representative), and CRS (Certified Residential Specialist) designations, and is a licensed broker.

A 22-year resident of Newtown, Mrs Linnell has been actively involved in volunteering at Newtown schools and the PTA. She was selected Parent of the Year twice, at Head O’Meadow and Middle Schools. She has taught time management courses at Newtown Continuing Education and is a Certified Lay Speaker at the Newtown United Methodist Church.

As a Newtown resident for 45 years, Mrs Miller has been in business as Newtown Country Realty for 36 years and has designed and built many of the Newtown homes. As a developer and builder she originally saw lot prices from $2,000 for a one-acre lot to today’s scarcity of building lots.

“This is an excellent match,” Mrs Miller said, since she and Mrs Linnell have worked together previously. With the partners’ joint long-term business experiences, the firm’s focus will be specialized personal service, “Big enough to get the job done, small enough to care.” “There is no real estate service that this company cannot provide to a client,” Mrs Miller said.

Newtown Country Realty, Inc., is a member of the Newtown and Waterbury Boards of Realtors, the Consolidated Multiple Listing Service, and the Waterbury Multiple Listing Service. The company is also the designated Fannie Mae Realtor for Northern Fairfield County and specializes in foreclosure properties.

Newtown Country Realty employs a full secretarial support staff seven days a week with full computerized service.

Newtown Country Realty has added three agents to its staff: Barbara Licursi, Cara Fedak, and Lorraine Fuchs, all of Newtown.
