We are an established agency of professionals with a longstanding and very personal interest in and commitment to the Island.  Our 35-year history of excellent service has earned us an industry wide reputation of integrity and professionalism.  All agents of Sandpiper Realty are REALTORS and are committed to strict adherence to the REALTOR Code of Ethics, which dictates fair and ethical practices by its members.  

We believe that working cooperatively within our profession, with other REALTORS and non-REALTORS, leads to better service for our clients.  To this end, we are subscribers to LINKMV, the Vineyard multiple listing system.  LINKMV (Listing Information Network) facilitates ready access to all Island properties being offered for sale this access offers the widest possible coverage to all property listings.

We are strong advocates of mandatory continuing education requirements for all real estate agents.  Our agents consistently attend seminars and graduate REALTOR courses to stay informed on current legislation and trends and how they impact our customers and clients.  In the current market, it is imperative that real estate professionals stay informed in order to provide the appropriate services.

Sandpiper is a local agency, committed to the Vineyard and with a longstanding and very personal interest in and commitment to the island and this has achieved recognition of a great degree of professionalism.  This is acknowledged by our previous clients and customers in the form of referrals.  It is acknowledged that success in the real estate industry is based on performance, which generates subsequent referrals.  Our primary source of buyers is referrals.  It is also acknowledged that affluent consumers rely on trusted sources for business referrals and the largest percentage of our high-end buyers have been referred to us by previous, satisfied customers.

This agency is committed to maintaining the characteristics - historical, architectural and environmental - which provide the basis for the quality of life and lifestyle on Martha's Vineyard.  As such, these characteristics are also the basis for our property values and must be respected and maintained.

Our experience has verified that it is of the greatest benefit to a property owner to educate both the owner and ourselves in advance of the marketing process.  This includes researching all applicable resources - legal or title questions, zoning regulations, area restrictions or covenants - to determine the positive or negative impact of each.  If it is appropriate to engage other professionals with complementary expertise, we are in a position to recommend those that will be of the greatest benefit to the owner. 

It is our common goal to establish and protect the highest and best use and value of the subject property.
