We have worked with real estate agents in Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston, Vancouver, and a few markets in between. At perhaps the least opportune time (amid an international pandemic) our family threw caution to the wind and began searching for a home on Nantucket. We could not have been more fortunate than to meet David Silver at Maury People. Do not allow Davids relative youth fool you. He has an innate ability to connect with others, is an exceptional communicator, and has a deep understanding of every nook and cranny of the island. David is not afraid to roll up his sleeves and get things

We recently worked with Lisa Winn to purchase a home in Nantucket and couldn't have been happier! Lisa was responsive, listened to us about what we were looking for in a second home, and was able to pull together a number of options that met our needs. She is incredibly knowledgeable about the island, its different beaches and surrounding neighborhoods, and the housing and rental markets. We are so grateful to have had LIsa as our agent and were thrilled to have her help us during the entire home buying process in Nantucket. We would work with her again should we look to rent our home or move in

David Silver is an excellent realtor, and an even better person. Do not be fooled by his youthful appearance and age. He has made wise career choices. None more important than starting his career at Maury People/Sotheby's and surrounding himself with smart, seasoned and accomplished brokers. He has learned much from this professional environment and it shows in his actions and words. We recently purchased a home on Nantucket and have the highest praise for David. He met us right on time on a cold, rainy day in January to show us multiple properties on the island. Having grown up as a summer resident

Lisa Winn worked with us for over 10 years, helping us with summer rentals and the sale of our quirky home. She is unfailingly responsive and insightful, and she knows Nantucket through and through. Her honesty and good humor made every turn in the road, from minor rental issues to serious sale-related ones, easier to traverse. Lisa's excellent recommendations for local professionals contributed significantly to success in the sales process. Lisa is thoughtful, considerate, and a pleasure to work with.
