Liz Correa Realtor

As a local realtor with Keller Williams Realty and long-time resident, I understand how daunting it is when selling or buying a home. I have been in your shoes many times and that's why I decided to become a realtor. I am committed to helping buyers and sellers navigate the real estate market and get the home value they deserve. It's about making wise decisions that will save you thousands.

I have been in real estate for years, buying, selling, leasing and investing. The market is shifting and rates have come down. Of course, once the rates continue to decrease, home prices will increase. If you're thinking of making a move the time is now. Remember, you can always renegotiate the rates.

At KW, I work with a team of experts and together we can provide the tools you need to handle any transaction and achieve your real estate goals. Whether you’re a first-time homebuyer, investor, downsizer, or seller, I will be with you from financing to closing -- every step of the way.

Contact me for a no pressure conversation. And sellers, do not hesitate to call for a free home value report. If you decide to sell, we offer a free home warranty for 180 days to cover any unexpected repairs.

Feel free to follow me on Instagram: lizzcorrea_vahomes for real estate tips and more.

Pine Island Camp

Pine Island is a non-profit summer camp, in continuous operation since 1902 that fosters boys’ independence, imagination, and character.

While many camps operate as profit-driven small businesses, Pine Island stands apart as a 501(c)(3) organization. For over a century, it has provided boys aged nine to fifteen the most meaningful experiences of their lives. On a small island in Maine’s Belgrade Lakes, campers live unplugged—without electricity or running water. They gain the freedom to make meaningful choices, the support of a community grounded in shared values, and enough time away from home to feel both independent and integral to a unique community they help build.

Whether your son is shy or outgoing, big or small, Pine Island will challenge him to bring out his best in the simple joys and varied circumstances of outdoor living. All of this happens under the close guidance of our caring staff, nearly all of whom are former campers themselves.

Spots are limited—Pine Island limits enrollment to fewer than 100 campers each summer. Learn more about this extraordinary place by filling out our inquiry form:
