Lucía Torres · 2026-09-09

### A New Chapter for The Agency We're thrilled to announce the opening of The Agency Narragansett, our first office in Rhode Island. This move expands our presence across the Northeast and brings our boutique approach to one of New England's most charming coastal communities. The new office will serve Narragansett and the surrounding South County coastal areas. It will be led by Managing Partners Nicole Maine and Patrick Farrell, who bring deep local knowledge and a strong understanding of the region's residential, waterfront, and lifestyle real estate markets. ### Why Narragansett? Narragansett is a true Northeast treasure. Set along the Atlantic in Washington County, it's known for its welcoming local culture, distinctive coastal architecture, and tight-knit communities. With a history dating back to the Gilded Age, the town balances timeless New England character with a lifestyle that appeals to today's buyers. Located less than three hours from Boston, New York City, and Connecticut, Narragansett offers scenic beaches, excellent boating and surfing, James Beard-winning dining, popular breweries, and homes ranging from historic waterfront estates to expansive equestrian properties. ### Leadership with Local Roots "Rhode Island's coastal communities offer an exceptional combination of history, natural beauty, and understated luxury," said Mauricio Umansky, CEO and Founder of The Agency. "Narragansett has long attracted buyers seeking waterfront living, strong community ties, and convenient access to major cities. Nicole Maine and Patrick Farrell have deep roots in the region and share our commitment to service, collaboration, and local expertise. We are proud to partner with them as we introduce The Agency to Rhode Island." James Ramsay, EVP of The Agency's Franchise Division, added, "Narragansett represents the kind of market where The Agency's global reach and boutique approach can make a meaningful impact. The surrounding region has a strong legacy of second-home ownership, waterfront living, and multigenerational family ties, while continuing to attract new buyers from Boston, New York, Connecticut, and beyond. Nicole and Patrick understand the nuances of these communities and are exceptionally well positioned to build The Agency's presence throughout Rhode Island." ### A Personal Touch "What makes this region so special is its warmth, history, and sense of community," said Nicole Maine, Managing Partner of The Agency Narragansett. "The luxury here is understated. Buyers are drawn to the beaches and boating, but they stay because of the character of the towns, the local relationships, and the lifestyle that families return to generation after generation. We are excited to combine that local perspective with The Agency's global platform and resources." ### Visit Us The Agency Narragansett is located at 360 Kingstown Road, Narragansett, RI 02882.
