Tony Vacca of Conway Commercial recently brokered the $160,000 sale of a retail condominium at 95 Church St., in Andersons Plaza to Barbara Monroe, who recently opened her "American Retro" shop there. Vacca represented both Monroe and the seller, Marianne Cannon, in the transaction.
"My store sells recycled clothing and accessories for men and women, but it is not a consignment shop," said Monroe, a Hanson native, who started her first American Retro business in Maine in 1992. "The difference is I buy my inventory outright from the public. You don't have to wait until your item sells to be paid. You simply drop off your good, quality clothing, and get your money then. It's a win/win situation."
Vacca was impressed with the concept of American Retro when he brokered the sale of the condo to Monroe. "I think it's a great idea to save people money by offering excellent clothing in a shop that definitely doesn't have a thrift shop feel," he said. "Barbara has had great success with her business in Maine, and I think she will do equally well here in Pembroke."
"My experience with Tony and Conway Commercial has been wonderful from start to finish," said Munroe.
"It has made my new venture even more fantastic. I look forward to working with him again when I open more branches of my shop in Massachusetts."
Conway Commercial was established in 1956 as a division of Jack Conway & Co., Inc., one of the largest independently owned real estate companies in New England.
