Felicia Trupiano, a full-time real estate salesperson on the North Shore, has joined J. Barrett & Co. in its Gloucester office.

Trupiano is an active partner in a family construction company, which includes building custom homes as well as remodeling and renovating homes. In conjunction with the business, the Gloucester native is also experienced in real estate financing.

"Service is the very essence of any aspect of real estate and that is a core philosophical principal at J. Barrett," said Trupiano, who lives in Rockport. "My business experience is based on customer service so working with a company that provides an unprecedented level of service from the moment of first contact throughout the entire transaction is very exciting."

"Having a real estate agent with Felicia’s construction background is an invaluable asset to our company," says Jon B. Gray, president. "In addition to a unique perspective on the industry, Felicia has extensive knowledge about ‘houses’ that will benefit not only the rest of our team but also clients who work with her."
