BEACH & BARTOLO REALTORS

CHRISTMAS PARTY 2010 AT

HUDSON-CHATHAM WINERY

This past week Beach & Bartolo Realtors held their annual Christmas Party at the Hudson-Chatham Winery tastingroom. We'd like to thank Rochelle and Chuck Bartolo for planning their company celebration with us. It was a cold night, so they all packed into the warm room. There was a Secret Santa, and lots of laughter. Chuck made a very heartfelt speech, and everyone enjoyed great food and wine. A good time was had by all.

Over 50 years ago, George Beach founded the George Beach Realty. A lifelong resident of Columbia County he had a deep appreciation for the beauty of this area and its wonderful homes of every age and style. (Yes, that really is George at age 12, harrowing his fields in the Austerlitz hills).

Today, George's historic white Colonial, nestled along Route 203 in the heart of picturesque Spencertown, is home to Beach & Bartolo, Realtors, Inc. Chuck Bartolo presides over 15 associate brokers and agents, all well-schooled in the intricacies of real estate and the in and outs of Columbia County.

Beach & Bartolo has become an efficient marketing organization, fully computerized, with membership in three multiple listing services and agents licensed in New York and Massachusetts. All of our agents are schooled in the many facets of real estate, but each has a particular strength. Some have lived in the area for a lifetime and understand the nature and needs of "locals." Others, transplanted from "the city" themselves, have a rapport with New Yorkers who have fallen in love with the area and are looking for a weekend home or a total change of lifestyle.

George Beach founded the business based on the principals of Honesty, Service, and Loyalty to the Customer, and so it continues under principal broker, Chuck Bartolo.

Happy Holidays to everyone from Beach & Bartolo, especially Rochelle and Chuck from Carlo and Dominique and the staff at Hudson-Chatham Winery.
