About Marie

In Italian, presto means fast.

Award-winning REALTOR Marie Presti fits that description to a T. From working with home stagers to tackling tough negotiations, she gets deals done efficiently and with a personal touch. She’s been known to host housewarming gatherings for her special clients and even prepares the food! (Italian is her specialty.) Marie goes the extra block. Quickly.

For over 20 years, Marie has been a passionate advocate for her clients, whether they’re buying, selling, or just needing advice. She has a proven track record of negotiating advantageous deals, from the purchase of a first home to the sale of multi-million dollar properties. In the past five years, Marie has sold more than 130 properties and helped her clients purchase over $57 million worth of real estate in Greater Boston. Her background in finance, marketing, sales, and teaching provides her clients with a multi-level perspective on real estate transactions that are value-added gold.

When she’s not busy working, Marie is active in many local organizations including the Newton Historical Society, the Rotary Club, Newton-Needham Chamber of Commerce, and Newton Mother’s Forum. She has taught more than 100 courses through the local community education program and knows Newton.

Marie believes strongly that real estate is all about relationships and has had many long-term, repeat clients as a result. She's particularly adept at helping those going through a change in life, including divorce, remarriage, the birth of a new child, moving, and other life-altering events. Given her own challenges over the years -- running a complex business while single parenting and overcoming critical relationship and financial hurdles -- she is particularly empathetic.

Marie has learned to teach others how to make sound real estate decisions while navigating intense emotions. In fact, she is planning to write a book on her experiences and lessons learned, in order to help other women.

Homes.com Review

Marie was great to work with. Was very detail oriented and had a lot of patience working with us. She made sure to provide us all of our option and point out all necessary information we needed to make the decision that is best for us. Great working with her and would love to work with her again when the time is right! Nancy Ng, Woburn Feb-2015

Homes.com Review

Marie is so knowledgeable about the market and has many connections with contractors, inspectors, attorneys, etc. She gave us options for people to contact, which was very helpful. Marie spent a lot of time reaching out to us and making sure we understood each part of the process and answered any questions. This was so crucial as we were first time home buyers. I would definitely recommend Marie to any close friend or family member looking to buy or sell a home. Megan & Matthew Dedham, MA May-2017

Marie Presti was wonderful with all of her help in getting us our dream house. She truly went above and beyond for us. She educated us about how to make the right decision, and she provided great recommendations about complex decisions in the home-buying process. She has a great attention to detail and helped us to be aware of issues that may come up in the process. She was a great support in helping to negotiate to get the price we wanted.
