Chelsea, MA Dennis Kelleher and John Pentore of Horvath & Tremblay have completed the sale of 268 & 278-280 Washington Ave., a 16-unit apartment building with a parking lot for $4 million. Kelleher and Pentore exclusively represented the seller, Hhc One Massasoit, LLC and procured the buyer, Broadway Capital.
