One less real estate sales company

Mawhinney Real Estate – the company that recently stamped its name on the bottom of the local phone books – is no more.  Owner Marc Mawhinney was in the newspaper today talking of the closure.

Mr. Mawhinney is quoted in the Telegraph Journal as saying:

"I think, for us, we were growing and we were probably growing too fast, which I've heard. So I would probably admit that to a degree"

Mr. Mawhinney is also among the first to have the honour of attributing business problems to Irving’s announcement that they will not be proceeding with the construction of a second refinery in the near-term.

Hopefully his staff are able to find other work soon.
