Maria Fontes
With over 26 years of experience as a dedicated Realtor and 30 years as the owner of a successful construction company, Maria brings a rare and powerful combination of market knowledge, hands-on building expertise, and design vision to every client she serves. Born in Portugal, she carries with her a strong work ethic, resilience, and a deep appreciation for culture that shapes both her personal and professional life.
Her extensive experience in real estate and construction allows her to see potential where others may not — whether it’s helping sellers maximize value, guiding buyers toward smart investments, or envisioning the transformation of a property. Understanding homes from the ground up gives her clients a distinct advantage in today’s competitive market.
Maria is fluent in Portuguese — speaking, reading, and writing — in addition to English, and she can also communicate in Spanish. Her multilingual abilities allow her to serve a diverse clientele with clarity, confidence, and cultural understanding.
She has built her career on integrity, dedication, and genuine care for the people she represents. Her passion for decorating and design gives her a natural edge when it comes to staging homes and helping clients reimagine spaces. She doesn’t just sell houses — she helps create homes.
Family is at the heart of Maria’s life. She is the proud mother of two adult children and a loving grandmother to two grandchildren, with whom she cherishes spending quality time with and with her Love. Whether gathering for family meals, sharing stories, or simply enjoying each other’s company, her family is her greatest joy and inspiration.
Outside of her professional life, Maria is energetic and community-minded. She loves to travel, explore different cultures, and experience a variety of cuisines. She enjoys karate, dancing, spending time in nature, and has a love for dogs, birds and fish aquariums.
Giving back is central to who she is. Maria is committed to helping those in need and supporting her community whenever possible.
For Maria, real estate isn’t just a career — it’s a lifelong passion built on experience, creativity, cultural connection, strong family values, and a sincere desire to help others succeed.
