This is rather big local news, with another local “legacy” firm selling out to a larger company.  

 York Simpson Underwood going to Prudential is a real surprise to those of us who keep our noses to the grindstone, and only surface for a brokers’ lunch now and then.  For a successful family run company, it may be a great time to cash out.

I suppose we will see some more mergers and acquisitions in the brokerage world, considering economic issues with burdening a significant number of large players.
