PITTSFIELD, Mass. — Bishop West Real Estate welcomed three agents: Pam Tworig, Kolleen Schmitt, and Shannon Davis.

Tworig, formerly with Moresi Real Estate Partners, has called the Berkshires and Southern Vermont home for over 40 years. With deep-rooted relationships among local business owners, contractors, and residents, she brings invaluable connections and insight to the market. Prior to real estate, she spent more than three decades managing properties and designing commercial and residential landscapes. Licensed in both Massachusetts and Vermont, Tworig will play a key role in expanding Bishop West's presence in Southern Vermont. "I'm thrilled to join a brokerage that prioritizes professionalism and education," said Tworig. "Helping clients find the perfect property—whether residential, commercial, or investment—is my passion, and I'm eager to contribute to Bishop West's growth in Vermont and beyond."

Kolleen Schmitt, a retired U.S. Coast Guard Chief Warrant Officer, has been a licensed real estate professional in Massachusetts since 2009. Holding the Military Relocation Professional (MRP) certification, she specializes in assisting veterans in achieving their dream of homeownership. An avid skier and licensed horseback riding instructor, Kolleen brings the same discipline and commitment to real estate as she does to her outdoor passions.

"Bishop West's dedication to its agents and clients is what drew me in," she said. "I'm excited to bring my experience to this dynamic team."

Shannon Davis, a longtime resident of Central Berkshire County, has been a full-time real estate agent for over seven years. With 20 years of professional customer service experience, Davis excels in communication and staying ahead of technological advancements in the industry. "Helping people achieve their real estate goals is what drives me," Davis shared.

"Bishop West provides the support and education that allows agents like me to thrive and, in turn, deliver the best service to our clients," she said.

Corey Bishop, co-owner of Bishop West Real Estate, expressed enthusiasm about the new additions.

"Pam, Kolleen, and Shannon are all dedicated professionals who embody the values we stand for—integrity, education, and exceptional client service," he said. "Their skills and passion make them outstanding additions to our team."

Co-owner Peter West added: "At Bishop West, we invest in our agents, knowing that well-supported professionals provide the best results for their clients. Pam, Kolleen, and Shannon's decision to join us speaks to the strength of our brokerage, and we are excited to watch them grow with us."

Founded in 2001, Bishop West Real Estate is licensed in Massachusetts, Vermont, New York, and Florida.

Allendale Pines North Affordable Manufactured Homes Sell Fast

Developer Teton Management cut the ribbon on the first six hopes in the manufactured housing community earlier this year.

PITTSFIELD, Mass. — Just a few months after Allendale Pines North cut the ribbon on its first six homes in the new manufactured home community, units in the planned development are selling fast with both first and second phases all but sold out.

For several years, Teton Management Corp. has been planning to expand its existing Allendale Pines Mobile Community with the development of 22 planned manufactured housing units. The new development has its own entrance at 395 Cheshire Road.

The need for attainable housing has never been higher, Teton President George Whaling said.

"And where we sought the opportunity to help with that demand is, we can get folks into a home at Allendale Pines North for essentially a couple of $100 less than what it would cost for someone to rent a three-bedroom of the same quality," he said.

The corporation took over Allendale Pines, now referred to as Allendale Pines South, about 6 1/2 years ago, Whaling said.

Since then, the corporation has invested $1,000,001 in infrastructure improvements, including replacing all water and sewer lines, paving the community and installing the infrastructure needed for 10 additional units, he said.

Additionally, it has been working to clean up and improve the community, which was lacking during previous ownership, said Jason Nocher, owner of Nocher Realty, which has been hired to help sell the units.
