Nextgen Realty announced the grand opening of a new office in Worcester designed to respond to increased demand for homes in the Greater Boston area.

Led by Nextgen’s newest partner, Kimberly Donovan, the office will focus on rental listings, exclusive apartment leasing and support for renters, landlords and property developers.

The move comes amid NextGen’s leasing partnership with The Grid District for 560 residential units across nine buildings in the area.

“We’re incredibly excited to be opening in Worcester,” said NextGen CEO Demetrios Salpoglou in a press release. “This new NextGen-West office supports our long-term vision of serving all corners of the Commonwealth.”
