Brick + Barn Group at Compass Managing Director and Founding Broker Scott Rome commented, “We love the idea of associating our firm and its name -- Compass -- that suggests path-finding and the Beacon level of sponsorship for this significant milestone in our city’s history. As a Beacon we light a path not only with our financial support but also because of our agents’ knowledge of and passion for the physical spaces – the real estate – our commercial and residential clients occupy. The Compass mission is to bring the unique set of our experiences and backgrounds, leading-edge technology and the highest standards of what we call a concierge level of service to our clients. Compass sponsorship helps empower the same level of excellence in the Portsmouth NH 400.”
