Taylor Real Estate Hires New Licensed Agent

Pete Crisafulli has longtime mental health and education background

EASTHAMPTON—Taylor Real Estate announced it has hired Pete Crisafulli to serve as a licensed agent for the longtime, family-owned firm.

The role represents the start of a second career for Crisafulli, who has a counseling background and has spent three decades in social services and education.

Early on in his first career, Crisafulli was a therapist and clinical director for the Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children for eight years, and he later served as an administrator in the Frontier Regional School District for 18 years.

“I wanted a change,” Crisafulli said, noting he has owned several homes in his life and has had a longtime interest in real estate and real estate investing. “I’m definitely a people person, and I enjoy helping other people achieve their goals and dreams. I thought working in real estate would be a great way to do that.”

Crisafulli came to Western Massachusetts in 1988 to attend Springfield College, where he earned a master’s degree in rehabilitation counseling. He also holds a bachelor’s degree in sociology from Queens College.

Crisafulli volunteered as a coach for many years and served on boards for the Easthampton Youth Soccer Association and Easthampton Little League.

He currently lives in Southampton but will soon return to Easthampton, where he lived for 25 years previously.
