GREAT BARRINGTON, Mass. — William Pitt Sotheby's International Realty has announced that Tim Donnelly will assume the role of brokerage manager for the firm's two Berkshire County brokerages in Great Barrington and Lenox, Mass.

Donnelly previously served for nearly three years in the position of assistant brokerage manager for the Berkshires as well as Litchfield County in Connecticut.

During those three years, Donnelly helped to facilitate William Pitt Sotheby's International Realty's significant growth in the region, including nearly tripling its sales force. The firm became the Berkshires' No. 1 residential real estate company in dollar volume for 2017, according to the FlexMLS, and also led the market in sales over $1 million. The company was involved in the highest residential sales of 2017 in five towns county-wide, including Chesterfield, Lenox, Richmond, Tyringham and Washington.

This year William Pitt Sotheby's International Realty continues to rank No. 1 in dollar volume year to date according to the FlexMLS. The company's successes in 2018 also include overseeing the sale of several new condominium offerings at the luxury spa and wellness resort Canyon Ranch in Lenox.

In addition to his involvement in the firm's sales growth, Donnelly has also played a key role in strategic expansion efforts, including the opening of a second Berkshires brokerage in Lenox and relocating to a larger office in Great Barrington in 2017. In Litchfield County, Donnelly helped with the recent move of the firm's Lakeville office to a more prominent location in Salisbury. He will remain involved in this region as co-manager in Salisbury alongside Litchfield County brokerage manager Kristine Newell, who manages four offices county-wide.



Before stepping into management, Tim consistently ranked a top producing agent in the Berkshires.

"Tim has proven instrumental to our success in the Berkshires," said Paul Breunich, president and CEO of William Pitt Sotheby's International Realty. "He has always brought the same passion, hard work ethic and commitment to service that helped him achieve top producer status to his role on our leadership team. I am thrilled to welcome him now as brokerage manager."

In his work Donnelly places an important emphasis on giving back to the Berkshires community. He recently entered the Berkshires offices into a "Battle of the Bartenders" charity competition, which the company won. All proceeds raised during the benefit were given to Construct, Inc., an organization dedicated to developing housing solutions for people in need in the Southern Berkshires.

Possible Measles Exposure at Boston, Logan

BOSTON — The Massachusetts Department of Public Health confirmed Wednesday that an out-of-state adult visitor who spent time in Boston and Westborough earlier this month was diagnosed with measles and was present in a number of locations.
 
This could have resulted in other people being exposed to measles virus.
 
The visitor arrived at Logan International Airport on American Airlines flight 2384 from Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas, on Dec. 11 at 2:39 p.m. They stayed at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Boston-Westborough in Westborough and departed the state on Dec. 12 via Logan at 9:19 p.m. on JetBlue flight 117 to Las Vegas.
 
DPH is working with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and local partners to identify and notify those who may have been exposed to measles from this individual.
 
"Measles is a highly contagious, airborne disease, which has increased significantly in the United States because of the unfortunate decrease in vaccination rates. It is also a preventable disease," said Public Health Commissioner Dr. Robbie Goldstein. "This current situation serves as an important reminder of the critical role vaccination plays in protecting our communities. While Massachusetts has not had a measles case this year, 2025 saw the highest number of nationwide cases in more than a decade — nearly 2,000 in 44 jurisdictions, and sadly, three deaths. 
 
"Fifteen years ago, measles had been considered eliminated in the United States, but that tremendous progress is at risk. Vaccines are one of the most important public health interventions ever — they are safe, effective, and lifesaving."
 
Measles is very contagious. However, the risk to most people in Massachusetts is low because the vaccination rate in the state is high. People who are not immune and visited any of the locations on the following dates and times may be at risk for developing measles.
