It all began with Carlton J. Bruen, grandfather of Ryan Bruen and father-in-law of Deborah Bruen.
In the late 1950’s, Carlton J. Bruen began as a sales agent with Parmies Agency, which was one of the largest agencies in the area at the time.
After a few years Carlton opened Carlton J. Bruen, Realtor and Insurer across the street from Parmies Agency on Elm Street in Morristown in a two room office.
In the early 1970’s, Carlton was one of the first in the state of New Jersey to buy a Century 21 franchise.
Century 21 Carlton J Bruen Realtors grew to 5 offices in Convent Station/Morris Township, Governor Morris Hotel in Morristown, Parsippany, Mendhan, and Stirling
In 1978, Scott Bruen joined the business, selling houses during his summer breaks from college. He went full time in 1981 after graduating college.
