In June, Residential Properties announced the opening of its eighth office, the result of acquiring Libby Kirwin Real Estate in Newport.
The agency said the new office in Little Compton will launch with a total of eight real estate professionals, including Rhonda Marvell and Jain Cern, both formerly of Shethar Real Estate. RPL said Ian Barnacle, who currently manages the agency’s Barrington and Westport offices, will manage the Little Compton office.
“Our office in Little Compton will work together with our Westport location to provide complete coverage of the South Coast and to better serve our clients and communities,” Barnacle said.

“I raised my two sons every summer in Little Compton and have been a resident of this magical town for 37 years,” Lapides said. “I am grateful for this opportunity.”
