All Maine real estate agents, brokers, REALTORS are the same right? No...each real estate agent, broker has different sets of skills unique to their market. In a small rural market like northern Maine where there are 11 people per square mile, the day to day routine is different than a broker in a city with wall to wall brokers and a myriad of transactions. In rural Maine, our prices are much lower, people don't lock doors, more smaller commission sales. Unspoiled scenery and what life's like in Aroostook County and its real estate market. Affordable property listings, no crime, no traffic, just wildlife, friendly people, fresh air, clean water. Ready to start the dream? Maine, the way life should be.

     Fatal attraction...it was a movie that made you squirm in the theatre seat. I don't even own a family pet rabbit but the idea of Buggs simmering on a cook stove got my attention.

Think about it. You just had a huge dinner, with loved ones surrounding the table and the talk of buying a piece of real estate comes up. Relocation to a friendlier, safe place.
