Westport Moves

Working with you to make ALL THE RIGHT MOVES! Westport, CT Real Estate Broker.

Marilyn moved to Westport as a young married women and immediately fell in love with the town. She often jokes that within weeks of moving in, she told her husband, should he be transferred, she would write to him, wherever he goes. While raising her family, Marilyn was a Soccer Mom, Little League Mom, Den Mother and PTA President. Today, she takes great pleasure in "paying it forward", as she gets to be the REALTOR® who helps others move to "her" town.

A puzzle solver, at heart, Marilyn enjoys working on Crosswords and Sodoku or playing Scrabble, and is not satisfied until she comes up with the solutions or earns the most points for the hand she has. She applies her puzzle-solving skills to her real estate business, exploring the market until she finds the home that best fits her client’s needs or researching recent sales, comps and market statistics to determine the optimal price at which to list a property. Combining these steps with communication, marketing and negotiating skills enables her to make the right deals at the best price.
