Maine's coastline stretches further than California's, and its seascape is dotted with over 3,000 islands. It's a place unlike any other, and it requires a real estate agent with a deep understanding of its unique charm and challenges. My name is Heather Shields, and while I specialize in the Maines luxury real estate market, my dedication extends to helping clients at every price point. Recognized as one of Maine's top agents for the past two years and ranked in the top 1.5% of agents nationwide, my commitment is a testament to the heartfelt connection I have with the Maine communities that have shaped me.
Born and raised on North Haven—one of Maine's 15 year-round nhabited islands-community and resilience have been my life's cornerstones. My father served as the island's ferryboat captain for 30 years, instilling in me an innate respect for Maine's natural wonders and close-knit communities. These early experiences guide my real estate work from Camden to Cape Elizabeth, and Penobscot Bay to Casco Bay.
With 19 years in the real estate sector, my professional success goes beyond the numbers; it's about fostering enduring relationships. I prioritize clear communication and transparency in all transactions. My commitment to community involvement is underscored by active roles in several esteemed local organizations, including as a board member of the Olympia Snowe Women's Leadership Institute. Most recently, I started the Maine Women's Project, a venture dedicated to highlighting the women of Maine and their significant contributions to our state.

The variety of options in any real estate search or sale can be overwhelming. In Maine, the extensive coastline, differing communities, seasonal conditions, and other special considerations can make your real estate deal seem even more complex. As a native Mainer, I'm especially familiar with what goes into those choices and how to maximize value for both buyers and sellers. I now live in southern Maine, but I had the unique privilege of growing up in North Haven, where my dad was the ferry boat captain for more than three decades. My island upbringing gave me a natural connection to the water and to our state's special charm, but even more so it taught me an appreciation for building relationships and being close to the community. Those values motivated me into a real estate career - I get to show off the incredible communities and culture of Maine while helping people with their home buying and selling decisions. Whether you are relocating or seeking a vacation property, or you are a fellow Mainer and local like me, we'd love the opportunity to show you the Maine that I know. For sellers, rest assured that our representation of your property is rooted in my native familiarity and a network that comes from decades in the business and a lifetime in our community.
