Doreen was an immense help in assisting finding, negotiating, and finalizing my first home. She will send new listings that match your criteria. When I found my house, she had great recommendations, quick responses, and constant advice. In plain English, she knows what she is doing and she is very good at it.

Doreen and her crew had to deal with a person who made an offer and then kept changing their time line and offer. They kept us updated the entire time. We ended up canceling this offer and Doreen and her crew had another offer right away.

I worked with Doreen in both buying, and then selling the same house years later. I can't recommend her highly enough. Patient, cheerful, competent, professional. Someone who seems to care about her clients interests. Who could ask for more? I remember, when I used her as a buyer's agent, I looked at properties all over the Upper Valley area with her, some probably out of Upper Valley as well. I never felt an inkling of pressure, or any feeling that Doreen would even benefit from me purchasing a house. It was like being with a friend who is helping me out. No question who I would use as my Seller

I have used Granite Northland for my real estate needs for the past 26 years. Most recently Doreen has helped me purchase my dream property and sell my house of 26 years. She is a real treasure! You can always count on her professionalism, dependability, attention to detail, and wealth of knowledge. It is always a pleasure to work with Doreen!

When we found ourselves in a position of having to sell a family home that became part of an estate, we reached out Doreen Wyman, owner of Granite Northland. She has an excellent reputation, and had previous experience with the house. Doreens genuine warmth put us at ease immediately, and she guided us every step of the way. She consistently demonstrated a high level of professionalism, and exhibited grace under pressure with some unexpected challenges along the way. Doreen is extremely knowledgeable about the real estate process and understands what is happening in the market at any given time

We have worked with Doreen from Granite Northland on several real estate transactions. We purchased a home 25 years ago and she was AMAZING! She knew the area and the homes better than most of the listing agents. She helped us find our long term home. Recently - She helped us again. We wanted to sell and move closer to Lebanon - even decided to build a new home and Doreen was there. Our home sold in 45 days! and when we looked for land she helped us find the place that will become our new 'forever' home. Thanks for all of your help and input Doreen! Looking to buy or sell? If anyone asks I say

My wife and I have been working with Doreen Wyman since 2001 and have been completely satisfied with both Doreen as an agent as well as Granite Northland as a firm. We initially bought and sold a number of parcels of land with Doreen. Her dedication and commitment to our particular needs and circumstances was unwavering as was her professionalism and thoroughness in all aspects of the transactions. Our work with Doreen was made even more challenging by the fact that we were out of the area, but that offered no difference to the service and attention we received from her. More recently, my wife
