About Acadia Cornerstone

Who is Acadia Cornerstone Real Estate?

 

We are a team of dedicated professionals who love what we do! We take the real estate business seriously and we believe that you can have fun doing what you love to do. We have a passion for working with buyers and sellers. Our goal is to help each client that we work with to obtain the best outcome in their real estate endeavor.

 

With Sellers we prepare a tailor made marketing plan to suit their property recognizing the fact that one size does not fit all. With Buyers we strive to not only find them a property with equity, but work with them through the process of getting estimates, building inspection, loan process and more.

 

Although we are a Bar Harbor real estate company, we have developed working relationships with clients throughout the Acadia real estate market. Our Bar Harbor real estate agency also serves the Ellsworth real estate market, the Blue Hill real estate area and the downeast regions of Hancock real estate including Sullivan real estate and Sorrento real estate.
