Heidi Straghan
Heidi has been buying, selling, and renovating property since 1999 and became a Realtor in 2019. Her experience, combined with her low-key persona, provides calm and confidence to her clients as she walks them through the process of buying and/or selling property. She, her husband, and 2 children consider themselves to be lucky stewards of a beautiful farm and conservation property on the Medomak River in Waldoboro Maine. When Heidi is not “real estating” she enjoys working with the animals on the farm, exploring the river with her family in their small Boston Whaler, meandering the roads of Maine discovering all of its wonderful personas, and occasionally venturing outside the state to admire the wonders across the rest of the world.
