Annie Higbee/DownHomeMaine Bean Group

An excellent negotiator, got me a great deal on a home.

Annie is Amazing!! I would recommend her very highly!!

In early 2018 I made the decision to move from my residence in the mid-west back to Maine. I wanted the help of a knowledgeable, honest and effective buyer’s agent and a friend recommended Annie Higbee. Bottom line: I have no hesitation offering the highest praise for Annie and no doubt that should you, too, have the opportunity to work with her you will be pleased with the outcome.nnEven before meeting Annie in person it was clear, from our phone calls, that she is bright, enthusiastic and willing to carefully listen to what I needed and wanted, instead of promoting whatever properties she and her agency had for sale.nnIn July I moved into my dream home – purchased at a price that was within my initial budget – all thanks to Annie, for who I have nothing but the highest praise.nnAs a real estate agent, I found her to be not only responsive, flexible and very supportive, but also, diligent, efficient and patient as I flip-flopped from one “I like it!” to another. Perhaps even more important, though, she is frank, shrewd and operates at the highest level of integrity, encouraging me to keep looking until I found the property that was “right” for me. Once we found that property, she devoted her seemingly boundless energy to clearing every hurdle and making it possible for me to move quickly into my new home.nnNormally, this would be the end of my review, but I would like to also add that not only did Annie earn my respect for her work as a real estate professional, but she is someone I would be happy to have as a friend. She is well-educated, cheerful and enthusiastic about life in general, and Maine in particular.

Annie Higbee is both a delightful person and a professional realtor. She assisted us in relocating from Montana to Maine. Despite a couple failed building inspections, Annie stuck with us until we found the home of our dreams. Thank you, Annie!

I contacted Annie back in February to get more info on a farm property that I really liked.. she got right back to me and stayed in communication (above and beyond the call of duty) and from that point on we were on a mission to secure this property... 5.5 long months later (because of my own issues not being able to secure a traditional loan) she managed to broker a deal with the seller and the seller’s agent to do a very unconventional owner finance type of setup. She did everything she could to make it happen, and she had a smile on her face the whole time. The best part, she followed through and we finally closed in this dream property on Aug 1st (after she had to negotiate, write countless emails and phone calls, and jump through so many different hoops). She couldn’t have been kinder and more concerned for my best interest. And I couldn’t have done it without her commitment and attention to detail. Annie is the real deal—-I highly recommend her to anyone!
