EXCLUSIVE: Business & Real Estate MOGUL Anthony DiLorenzo On Hearth Market's Failure, Buying the McIntyre Building, & Running for U.S. Congress!
Anthony DiLorenzo lived the American Dream.
The son of immigrants, DiLorenzo bounced around as a child. After attending UNH in the 1980s, he decided to call the Seacoast home for the long haul. Not long after, he bought one car dealership, and then another, and another.
Today, Anthony's Key Auto Group is one of the largest auto dealership chains in New England. Throughout his 30+ years in business, he's hired thousands of employees, solved countless problems, and earned millions upon millions of dollars. With his personal fortune, he's regularly given to several Seacoast nonprofits, donated $4 million to UNH's athletic complex, and he also purchased the infamous McIntyre Building in Portsmouth for $9 million.
And due to all his business success, Anthony is confident he can win another uphill battle:
This fall, DiLorenzo (R) announced he's running for New Hampshire's 1st Seat in the U.S. House of Representatives in 2026.
His overarching message?
To make the American Dream possible for New Hampshire citizens once more.
From the West End of Portsmouth, Anthony joins host Troy Farkas for a wide-ranging discussion, where the two discuss Anthony's humble beginnings, growing his auto empire, what he loves about New Hampshire, why the Hearth Market failed, and his ambitious plans for making the McIntyre Building a community hub.
Plus, Anthony discusses his approach to solving some of the nation's most pressing issues, like the healthcare system, college tuition prices, skyrocketing national debt, political polarization, and more.
