Communities I Serve

I believe I am unique in that I have experience selling real estate throughout southern Maine. I have closed multiple transactions in the following:

Kittery

York

Ogunquit

Wells

Kennebunkport

Kennebunk

Biddeford

Saco

Old Orchard Beach

Scarborough

Cape Elizabeth

South Portland

Portland

Falmouth

Cumberland

Yarmouth

the Lakes Region

I can compare and contrast the shorelines, property value trends, demographics, business climate, housing stock, etc. in each of these towns, probably because I have worked with so many people from out of state looking to buy primary, second home or income property help them figure out where they want to be.
