Calcagni Real Estate, headquartered in Cheshire, Connecticut, recently announced its ranking among the top 1,000 real estate firms in the U.S. in sales volume, according to RISMedia’s 30th Annual Power Broker Report.

With the economy expanding and home prices on a tear, they’re charging forward and leveraging the opportunities. We applaud their commitment to homeownership and congratulate them on their Power Broker standing.”
