Just Sold in Sebago! 🏡✨

Congratulations to my wonderful seller on the sale of 829 Bridgton Road in Sebago. It was truly an honor to help guide this sale from start to finish.

Every home sale represents a big transition, and I’m always grateful for the trust my clients place in me during that process. This one was especially meaningful, and I’m so happy for what’s next for my seller.

Thinking about buying or selling in Western Maine? I’d love to help you navigate the process with confidence.

🌿 Summer is all about making the most of your outdoor spaces. From cozy outdoor living rooms to lush landscaping and tranquil water features, today's backyards are designed to be an extension of the home.

Whether you're hosting friends, enjoying a quiet morning coffee, or unwinding after a long day, a thoughtfully designed outdoor space can elevate both your lifestyle and your home's appeal.

Which outdoor feature would be at the top of your wish list?

Happy Pride Month! 🌈

Home should be a place where you feel safe, seen, welcomed, and fully yourself. This month, we celebrate the LGBTQ+ community, honor the progress that has been made, and recognize the work still needed to ensure everyone has equal access to housing, opportunity, and belonging.

As a real estate professional, I believe everyone deserves to feel at home — not just in the house they choose, but in the community around them.

Celebrating Pride today and every day. 🏡❤️

It truly is an honor to list this family home located at 434 Main Street in Oxford, Maine- so many memories have been made here! I have admired this home since my first visit to Oxford Hills in February of 2018.

Timeless character, river frontage, and room to dream. This stately New England home offers approximately 4,667 square feet of living space on 6.6 scenic acres with private river frontage, a dock, mature landscaping, and an in-ground pool.

From the moment you arrive, the home’s historic charm is evident in its classic architecture, welcoming front porch, wood floors, tall ceilings, detailed trim, and graciously sized rooms. Inside, sun-filled living spaces provide a flexible layout with room for gathering, entertaining, working from home, or creating quiet retreats. A charming brick hearth with wood stove adds warmth and character, while the spacious kitchen and adjoining living areas open toward the rear of the property, where walls of windows frame views of the pool, lawn, and natural surroundings.

The grounds are a true highlight, offering a peaceful blend of open yard, established gardens, wooded privacy, and direct access to the river. Spend summer days poolside, launch from the dock, relax on the porch swing, or explore the possibilities offered by the acreage and attached barn/garage space.

Rich with history and filled with potential, this is a rare chance to reimagine a landmark property in a beautiful Maine setting. A special home, a beautiful lot, and an opportunity that does not come along often.

June is National Homeownership Month 🏡✨

Owning a home is about so much more than having a place to live. It is about building stability, creating memories, growing equity, and having a space that truly feels like yours.

Whether you are buying your first home, thinking about selling, or wondering what steps you need to take before you are ready, I am always happy to be a resource. Homeownership can feel overwhelming, but with the right guidance, it becomes much more manageable.

Curious what your next step might look like? Let’s talk.

Homeownership Myth vs. Fact 🔍🏡

One of the biggest barriers to buying a home isn't the market, it's misinformation. Many people assume they need 20% down, perfect credit, or that renting is always the better financial choice. The reality? Every buyer's situation is different, and there are more paths to homeownership than most people realize.

This National Homeownership Month, I'm breaking down some of the most common myths I hear from buyers.

Which one surprised you the most? Drop it in the comments below. 👇

Hi, I’m Tavia! 👋

For those who are new here—or those I haven’t connected with in a while—I’m a real estate agent serving Western Maine and surrounding communities, with experience helping buyers and sellers across Maine and New Hampshire.

With more than 10 years in real estate, I know that buying or selling a home is about so much more than a transaction. It is about your goals, your timeline, your questions, and making sure you feel informed and supported every step of the way. My approach is honest, strategic, and personal—because every client and every home has a different story.

Outside of real estate, I’m also a Pilates instructor, wellness business owner, nutrition graduate student, and proud dog mom to four very loved pups. I care deeply about community, connection, and helping people feel at home—wherever life is taking them.

Whether you are thinking about making a move, curious about the market, or just want to stay connected, I’m glad you’re here. 🏡

What is one thing you love most about where you live?
