Preferred Resources

My clients often ask for referrals for services they need when relocating to Maine or for buying and moving into their new home. I have assembled a list of names and companies for professional and trade services.

These are names of businesses and service providers that I have personally used for my own business or in my own home; and would use again. For your convenience, I have also listed contact information for some of the local utilities.

I do not receive a kickback or referral. All I ask in return is they treat you with respect, fairness, and honesty. I cannot promise that you will have the same experience I had. However, I can assure you that I have personally had a favorable experience with everyone on this list.

I hope you will tell them Sam sent you.

Coming Soon: Some of these service providers have agreed to offer a discount for their services. Use the contact information for me below and you will be emailed a coupon.

The Maine Real Estate Commission strongly urges agents to give 3 recommendations when providing referrals. This provides you the opportunity to interview and select the vendor who you think will most likely meet your needs and personality.
