What is a Historic Homes Specialist?
The historic segment of the real estate market is one that deserves its own niche. We recognized this and have developed a group to focus on these significant Maine properties. Specialists in this niche division have a particular interest in the history of the homes owned and desired by the clients they represent. They are committed to marketing and presenting these properties in a distinctive and informative way. The requirements for designation as a brokerage specialist for Historic Homes includes attendance at educational sessions on architectural and historical topics, research on listings to provide a complete history and reaching new buyers through innovative and creative marketing strategies. The following brokers have qualified for this distinction:
