See our latest Blog Posts here
Hello, and welcome! I'm John Bettis, Associate Broker at Realty of Maine. After almost 20 years of living in Downeast Maine where I have personally bought and sold properties, I am very familiar with the quaint towns and the picturesque harbors that stretch eastward from Castine, Blue Hill, and Acadia, through Milbridge and Harrington. This area offers exceptional value for oceanfront properties, and I am excited to share some of these extraordinary buying opportunities with you. I love the good people who live and work in this area, and naturally, am very familiar with builders, surveyors, inspectors and more to assist you. Please allow me to share this gorgeous region with you, and help find your perfect home here. You can learn more about working with me and my expertise in the About Me section.

"John Bettis provided outstanding service and assistance during our recent move from Colorado to Maine. His calm manner was very helpful during a rushed, hectic time. John is extremely prompt and on top of things, was super responsive and got offers in on houses in record time. John's knowledge of Maine was most helpful. He and his team went way out of their way to help us find a lovely home in Maine. We highly recommend John Bettis as an honest, ethical realtor who works hard for his clients. Sincerely, Gillian Wilks and Gordon Scott", July 2021 - Property #1491200
