"Marie was such a pleasure to work with to buy my house. I am getting close to retirement, and I wanted to buy a home that was not only good for me now, but would be a good investment property for me down the road when I retired. Marie took the time to consult with me about my investment interests and we put together a plan to help me build my real estate portfolio. We looked at many different types of homes, from tear-downs and fixer uppers to new construction. This helped me to decide what type of property I would be most comfortable with. Based on her recommendations we found a lovely home in a growing community that's going to work out really well. It's a turn key property and I can move in right away. In the future, it'll be a great rental property as well since it's near great restaurants and shopping, and is in an easy commute location. I couldn't be more pleased! I have purchased and sold several properties in the past 30 years, but never have I learned as much about real estate"

"Marie was such a dream to work with! She was so kind and patient. It was time for me to downsize and find a little place just for myself, and Marie took the time to walk me through everything I needed to do to get my home ready to sell and she found a lovely cottage for me to move into nearby. She understood just what I needed. It had been many years since I had purchased a home, and everything was so different. I'm so glad I had her to help me."

""Marie helped me sell my house, when everyone told me it couldn't be done. I had bought my house just a year ago, when the real estate market was falling, and in the past year the market continued to drop. I needed to sell, but I didn't want to lose money on it either. I just stayed focused on the outcome I wanted, and looked for an agent to help me. I had met some others, but no one seemed right until I had a chance to talk with Marie. I listed my house with her and within a month we had multiple offers and I sold the house for more than I bought it for a year earlier! She's truly a light beautiful soul, and I'm so happy we worked together.""

"Marie helped me buy my cute house with a yard for my puppy dog! I had been working with another real estate broker but the fit just didn't seem right. They kept showing me homes I either couldn't afford, or required way too much work. When I met Marie, I had a feeling she would be the right person to work with me, and I wasn't wrong. She was really patient and helped me to understand all the steps in buying a home. We looked at several different towns, and she really took to heart my desire for a place close to my family but with a large yard for my dog. There was so much work and so many surprises in the buying process, but Marie hung in there and was truly my champion, making it all possible. She is awesome!!!"

""My fiance and I had been thinking about buying our first home together for about a year. We weren't sure what our options were. When we contacted Marie, she took the time to walk us through our options, and suggested communities we would like and would be close to our work. Now we have a townhouse that's perfect for us! It has a 2 car garage, and huge kitchen, and it's less than a mile to go shopping. I couldn't believe we could find something like this, and it's been wonderful! I highly recommend working with Marie.""

"“I had been looking at homes online everyday for over a year before I was ready to buy a house. I gave Marie a call and told her about the homes I had found that I wanted to see. We looked at places for several days and none of them were really right. I thought it would be easy, but when you see the homes in person they’re not always like you expect, so I was pretty disappointed. But, Marie really listened and finally she said “why don’t we look at one I’ve found.” As we were driving to the house, I was reading the listing information and I said “Wow, I love it already!” The home had every feature I had said I wanted. Don’t know why I never saw it earlier. Marie really helped make buying my first home possible. I know I will be working with her for years.”"
