Consistently recognized as one of the top producing sales teams on the East Side of Providence and Statewide, The Blackstone Team successfully closed over $81M+ in sales in 2022 and currently ranks among the top 10 producers in Rhode Island, based on 2023 closed sales volume.

Nelson Taylor, Founder and Managing Partner, elaborated, “Compass is the real estate company of the future: team focused, growth oriented and technology driven. But most of all, Compass is mission-minded and aligns with our personal philosophies like no other company in the marketplace.”
