Born and raised in Nashua, New Hampshire, Ron and Shirley Despres, founders of Despres & Associates, fell into the real estate business after a west coast job opportunity failed to pan out.
After five years as top-producing agents in California, Ron and Shirley moved the family back east and settled in Jaffrey, establishing Despres & Associates in 1976. The objective was to provide the highest quality service to both buyers and sellers, with a sales staff dedicated to a respect for fair play, integrity, and continued education in the real estate field.
