RPL’s Barrington office - Barrington, RI

Providence, RI Providence Business News released its 2017 list of residential real estate companies in Rhode Island, and once again ranked Residential Properties Ltd. as the state’s number one company for both residences sold and overall sales volume during 2016.

After leading Rhode Island with 1,748 residences sold in 2015, RPL set a new company record in 2016 with a total of 1,886 residences sold - over 120 more sales than the next closest competitor. During a year in which the company celebrated its 35th anniversary, Residential Properties also set a new personal record with $789 million in overall sales volume, compiling over $300 million more than any other brokerage in the state.

“I’m bursting with pride,” said RPL president & CEO Sally Lapides. “Thank you to our amazing staff and managers, all of our outstanding real estate professionals who work as hard as anyone can imagine, and of course all of our loyal clients.”

This marks the second consecutive year that RPL has led the state in residences sold, while the company has also been ranked #1 in sales volume for no less than the past five years in a row.

Residential Properties Ltd. currently has over 180 agents located in five offices throughout the state, including Barrington, Cumberland, East Greenwich, Providence, and Narragansett. In addition to its local achievements, the company is also consistently ranked among the top 500 most successful real estate companies in the nation by both Real Trends and RIS Media.
