Join us in congratulating our agent Laura Pellerano, based out of our Northeast Harbor office, who was recognized as Maine’s REALTOR® of the Year by the Maine Association of REALTORS®. “Laura has been such a great asset for so many of the REALTORS® for many years. She is a committed professional who sets high standards for herself, her clients, and her real estate peers,” says Chris Lynch, Founder and President of Legacy Properties Sotheby’s International Realty. “She is a thoughtful advocate who continues to raise the bar for Real Estate in Maine. I cannot think of a more deserving person to be recognized for her good work and good deeds.”
A REALTOR® since 1999, Laura is a past President of the Acadia Council and the Mid-Coast Board of REALTORS® and has served as Board Treasurer since 2018. Laura has served as a MAR Director for four years, been a member of the MAR Legislative Committee for seven years, and MAR’s budget committee since 2021. She serves on Professional Standards and the Maine Listings Policies and Procedures Committee. Laura holds the ABR, GRI, CRS and Green Designations; is committed to learning and professional development and is a MARPAC Major Investor.
“I was at the Maine Association of REALTORS® event at the Samoset Resort in Rockland when Laura was met with overwhelming support for this recognition from her peers in a very competitive field of excellent candidates, including our Camden agent Brian Wickenden, who was earlier recognized by the Penn Bay Council,” adds Chris Lynch.
In her spare time, Laura volunteers in her community, is a talented photographer, and works with local writers and conservationists to document and explore our natural world. She is heavily involved in local organizations such as the Rotary Club of Ellsworth and the Chamber of Commerce.
“It is very humbling to have been chosen to be Maine’s REALTOR® of the Year for 2023, it is such an honor,” adds Laura Pellerano. “It is amazing to me to be held in such high esteem by my colleagues.”
Earlier this summer, Laura Pellerano was honored at the regional Acadia Council REALTOR® of the Year event at the historic Kebo Valley Golf Club in Bar Harbor. Laura Pellerano is a consistent market-leading agent currently representing several iconic properties in the Midcoast and Downeast regions, including Rooster Brother in Ellsworth and an incredible lobster pound with 11 acres and more than 1,300 feet of Atlantic Ocean frontage on Deer Isle.
