Billy Bergin Joins The Blumenthal Team of REMAX Benchmark Realty Group

RE/MAX Benchmark Realty today announced that William “Billy” Bergin has joined the firm as a licensed real estate sales person and the newest member of The Blumenthal Team.

A 2002 graduate of Newburgh Free Academy, Bergin served in Afghanistan in 2010 with 827^th Engineering Company, 204^th Battalion as a combat engineer. Currently a sergeant with Alpha Company Recruiting and Retention at the New York Armory, Bergin plans to focus his new career in real estate helping active-duty and reserve service personnel find affordable and timely housing.

“Military personnel have unique needs for housing,” Bergin said. “Aside from navigating the specialized VA Loan process, service members often have short time frames and constrained resources to devote to moving and relocating, which they are frequently called upon to do.”

Fully licensed to serve clients throughout New York,  Bergin lives in New Windsor with his wife Emily and new baby girl Brooklyn Grace. Thirty-one years old, he joins one of the most prolific sales teams in Hudson Valley real estate led by Lyra Blumenthal, a local expert with a multimillion-dollar record of homes sold over the past 20 years.

“Billy brings unique insight into the needs and requirements of our military servicemen and women,” Blumenthal said. “With West Point and Stewart Air National Guard base in the local area, Billy is positioned to help many of the military families who serve our country to relocate and find the readily available housing they need. I’m proud to have him as the newest member of The Blumenthal Team.”

An avid sportsman and golfer, Bergin coaches local hockey youth leagues at Ice Time in Town of Newburgh.
