I just received a rather distressing email regarding the real reason behind the closing of Vita Real Estate from Court Street to a smaller annex office on Smith Street . Read on:
I read your post about Vita Real Estate and wanted to give you all the details.
In the fall Angela Vita had surgery on her knee. She offered to sell the business to her 15 year plus agents Frances Kopito and Amy Leone.
They were not interested. In December she got an infection in her knee and had to stay home for an extended period of time. She learned that Frances and Amy had been telling people she sold the business to them and wasn't returning... this is not true.
Angela soon received an eviction notice from the landlord asking her to leave the premises which she had occupied for over 10 years.
She learned that Frances and Amy had negotiated the space for themselves with the landlord in the Vita space on Court Street! She is outraged.
So the sign in the window that says Amy and Francis are staying is a reflection that these 2 people kicked Angela out of her own space.
She can no longer sell the business as it has been devalued by her ungrateful employees and has decided to move everything to Smith street until she figures it out.
As a fellow real estate agent I am shocked at their actions. I have never had a positive experience with them and these actions only fit the bad stereotype that real estate agents have.
I have been working and helping Angela in this difficult time to get her stuff in order and deal with the circumstances. I am deeply saddened by her situation and have helped her in any way I can. I know she is devastated to see her life's work manipulated and basicly stripped from her.

It's pretty appalling behavior from two employees who have been working for Vita Real Estate for a very long time. Let's all remember this when we are in need of a realtor.

You can find Angela Vita at:
296 Smith Street
