Residential Properties Ltd. sells 9 Montgomery St.

9 Montgomery Street - Pawtucket, RI

Pawtucket, RI Residential Properties Ltd. negotiated the sale of 9 Montgomery St. for $890,000. RPL sales associate Paula Morrison represented the buyer as the selling agent.

Once featured in Architectural Digest, this historic, stand-alone brick building was once home to the U-Pic shoe store, and before that, it served as the Pawtucket Progressive Spiritualist Lyceum, a meetinghouse for those who sought to communicate with departed souls. That was before it was purchased by academic historian and art & antiques dealer, Richard Kazarian. Born and raised in Pawtucket, Kazarian purchased the abandoned shoe store and then, along with the help of designer Julie Clifton and the technical support of the Providence architectural firm Yoder + Tidwell, he transformed the building into an ideal live/work space.

Today, the home features soaring ceilings, a pyramid skylight, custom finishes, and a gorgeous chef’s kitchen with marble and zinc countertops. There’s even a built-in, retractable 13-foot projector screen for cinema-grade viewing. Outside is a lovely fenced-in yard, complete with custom planters and a relaxing hot tub.

As part of The Morrison Group, Paula Morrison has been a multimillion-dollar producer, receiving the Greater Providence Board of Realtor 2021 Circle of Sales Excellence Platinum Award.

Ask the Electrician: How do I prepare my commercial building for a disaster?

New England’s notorious weather – from fierce winter storms to summer squalls and fall hurricanes – can leave businesses in the dark. While power outages are often blamed on storms, they can also be caused by unforeseen events like accidents or construction mishaps. While it’s impossible to prevent disasters and power outages entirely, proactive preparation can significantly minimize their impact on your commercial building.

Long-term interest rates have fallen by 100 basis points, and the market is normalizing. In December of 2022 I wrote an article about investing in a high interest rate, high inflation market. Since then, inflation has cooled off, and the Fed has begun lowering their funds rate.
