Lamacchia Realty Expands Market Share in Bristol County with Acquisition of Rosewood Realty and Real Estate School
Lamacchia Realty is pleased to announce the acquisition of Rosewood Realty in Somerset, Massachusetts. Anthony Lamacchia and the leadership team of Lamacchia Realty are thrilled to be expanding their presence in the Bristol County market with Eric Alberto who is a well-known and respected Broker/Owner/REALTOR® and Real Estate licensing teacher in that area, along with his agents who are very active in Bristol County.
“I’m excited to have Rosewood Realty join Lamacchia Realty. Eric has built a great company, and we are thrilled to welcome him and his REALTORS. It’s also an especially exciting time as we now have a real estate school, with Eric at the forefront of that —we now have an even bigger opportunity to invest in agents at every stage of their careers. We’re looking forward to what we can build together from here.”
Rosewood Realty, founded in 2013, has become a trusted name in the region, built on a foundation of strong community ties, education, and a client first approach. Eric Alberto began his real estate career in 2004 and became a broker in 2007, previously working with Century 21 Anchor and Eric Alberto Realty before launching Rosewood Realty. The entire Rosewood team of highly seasoned real estate professionals is dedicated to providing exceptional, personalized service for all of their clients. This merger expands Lamacchia Realty’s market presence in the Southcoast region, with their current Bristol county offices in Easton, Fall River and New Bedford Offices as well as in East Providence, Rhode Island.
“I couldn’t be more excited to join forces with Anthony and his team at Lamacchia Realty. The tools, systems, and technology they provide are second to none and will put our agents in a position to grow, succeed, and most importantly better serve their clients. Their dedication to educating agents aligns perfectly with our mission through Rosewood Real Estate School. This partnership creates an incredible opportunity for our agents and the communities we serve.”
Along with Eric, 16 agents will be joining the Lamacchia Realty Fall River office including: Angelet Viveiros, Bryan Nadeau, Carlton German, Elizabeth Modzelewski, Eric Silva, Fatima Furtado, Fred Medeiros, Jeffrey Comeau, Kara Magoni, Kerri Ann Scaramuzzo, Luisa Quinones, Lynn Robbins, Mark Sherman, Michael Alberto, Shaunna Carreiro, and Tracey Wilton.
“We are thrilled to welcome Eric and his team to Lamacchia Realty in Fall River. Eric’s extensive experience in real estate and education will be a terrific addition to the office and agents as we continue to grow in the region. By joining forces, we are not just growing in size, but in capability. Bringing together the best agents to serve our clients in the best way possible and create greater value than ever before.”
Additional to the brokerage that has joined Lamacchia, Eric Alberto brings along with him Rosewood Real Estate School, founded in 2019, which will now be a part of Crush it In Real Estate which is also owned by the Lamacchia Companies. The school is an approved institution offering both pre-licensing courses and continuing education, with a focus on preparing agents to succeed and better serve their clients. This merger creates an exciting opportunity to grow and scale the school alongside the brokerage, aligning perfectly with Lamacchia Realty’s strong commitment to agent training, development, and long-term success. Eric is maintaining an ownership stake in the school and will be the head teacher moving forward. Anthony and Eric plan to add virtual classes and to add many hours of video classes like the Crush it in Real Estate training that Anthony created over ten years ago that is available to purchase for REALTORS and brokerages across North America. By the end of this summer, these licensing courses led by Eric will be offered across Massachusetts.
“I am thrilled and honored to welcome all of the Rosewood REALTORS into Lamacchia Realty. They are a great addition to our growing Bristol County and Rhode Island business. There is no doubt that we are all stronger working together than apart. In addition, I am very excited to finally have a Real Estate school within the Lamacchia Companies family, and I am very grateful to have Eric at the helm of the school that will now be Rosewood Real Estate School. We will not only grow it in this region but also across Massachusetts and likely beyond,” stated Anthony Lamacchia, Owner of Lamacchia Companies.
Since Lamacchia Realty entered the Bristol County market with the acquisition of Right Choice Real Estate in Fall River in the summer of 2023, the company has deployed a very aggressive marketing campaign in the region. The existing campaign will accelerate with this acquisition and dramatically boost the company’s market reach and help add more top REALTORS® to the company in the market. The marketing plan features billboards in the region, social media posts, postcards, newspaper ads, television ads, and much more.
All home buyers, sellers, tenants, landlords, REALTORS®, and other broker owners in the area should know that it is business as usual at Rosewood and all current listings and pending sales will not be impacted by this change. There will be no interruptions in service to any clients or other brokerages anywhere. In the weeks to come Lamacchia’s management team and staff will work with all the REALTORS® at Rosewood Realty who are now Lamacchia REALTORS® to implement Lamacchia’s suite of lead products, services, training, technology, and more.
This marks Lamacchia Realty’s fourteenth acquisition in New England in the past two and a half years and the company is working to continue its expansion in New England and also working on closing some acquisitions in South Florida. Prior acquisitions for Lamacchia Realty include one just two weeks ago in Waterbury and Wolcott, CT with the Briotti Group, two weeks before that in Milford, MA with the Lioce Properties Group, East Providence with Tirrell Realty, Newburyport and Amesbury, MA with Stone Ridge Properties, Shrewsbury with Thrive Real Estate, Pittsfield with Home Sweet Home Real Estate, Dalton with Berkshire Dream Home, Easton with Briarwood Real Estate, Auburn with Emerson Realtors, Springfield with Sears Real Estate, Falmouth with Foley Real Estate, Fall River with Right Choice Real Estate, and Seekonk with Keystone Properties Group. Lamacchia Realty is excited to bring on even more REALTORS® in the Bristol County market in the weeks and months to come.
As a full-service, value-based team, Lamacchia Realty’s mission is to empower its staff, REALTORS®, and clients to achieve success. The company provides unmatched training, systems, and technology, equipping employees with the tools they need to thrive and grow in their roles. Lamacchia Realty takes great pride in its strong culture of support, which has contributed to an impressively high retention rate. Culture is at the heart of the company, with every staff member and agent playing an integral role in maintaining and enhancing it, helping us continue to grow!
