Portland, ME According to The Dunham Group, Bryan Plourde has joined the firm as a broker/sales agent. Having spent the last 10 years as a commercial real estate appraiser at Maine Valuation Co., Plourde brings an invaluable skill set to the firm.

Analytical and diligent by nature, Plourde enjoys helping his clients make smarter and more informed decisions when buying, selling, and leasing commercial real estate.

“The addition of Bryan checks a lot of boxes for us. He’s obviously a talented underwriter of com-mercial real estate value. But beyond that, he’s a trustworthy, pragmatic, and genuinely good per-son. We couldn’t be more excited that he chose our company to begin the next chapter of his pro-fessional career,” said Justin Lamontagne, The Dunham Group’s managing partner and designated broker. 

 “Over the years I’ve developed an appreciation for how commercial real estate impacts all those involved, and I enjoy applying my unique perspective to make for an efficient real estate process for my clients,” said Plourde.
