Get to know Gretchen

My goal with every Seller or Buyer is to combine my in-depth market knowledge and negotiating skills with caring professional service. It is important to stay attuned to the needs of Sellers and Buyers and make sure they feel they have the necessary market information to make smart well-informed decisions. I provide a strong community network to families as they get settled in their new home, to make for a positive experience.

Clients in the North of Boston area and Southern New Hampshire can expect to utilize my in depth market knowledge in the areas North of Boston and into the towns of Southern New Hampshire.

My Professional Business Career brings a wealth of knowledge and successful negotiating experience to the Real Estate arena for Seller and Buyers. Strategic thinking and Creative Marketing Strategies give my clients the edge in every transaction.
