George MacLeod, Owner & Principal Broker
George has experience and training in brokerage of primary residential and vacation homes, large land parcels, commercial properties and businesses. He is a 1972 graduate of the University of Maine with extensive experience in land use planning, property development, home construction and renovation, business start-ups and sales, and natural resource conservation. George has personally built, bought and renovated numerous properties including the historic Bradley Block in downtown Bucksport where he and his wife, Katie, opened the landmark MacLeod's Restaurant in 1980. The couple has four grown children - all proud Mainers.
George began his real estate brokerage career in 2001 at Landmark Properties in Bucksport. He was soon recruited by luxury real estate firm, Trimble Private Brokerage, where he became that agency's top broker specializing in the marketing of islands, waterfront homes, and large land tracts. When Trimble moved it's operation to Charleston, South Carolina, George and two partners founded the Christopher Group which quickly grew to become the premier brokerage for waterfront residential properties and businesses in Downeast, Maine. In response to requests from his growing list of international buyers and sellers, George opened Maine Real Estate Brokerage in 2013 to offer marketing and brokerage services state-wide.
Client Testimonial
"We are pleased to have met someone with your experience and commitment to community development in Maine. You understand and share our goal of reviving local economies by investing in historic properties and creating opportunities for small businesses to thrive. Few brokers have your insight, so anyone seeking to advance personal or community interests in Maine would be fortunate to find someone like you. Whether clients require expertise in municipal planning, state and local regulations, business development, or building renovation, they can benefit from your experience, services and contacts. They will benefit because these fields are connected, and clients need to understand these connections, or engage someone who does." - John W, Florida
