About Maren

Since 2003
Maren Brisson-Kuester
Broker & COO · Corcoran HM Properties

“This is my hometown. My family has been here three generations, and I know this whole area, from Myers Park to Union County to the lake, like the back of my hand. I’m not city and I’m not country. I’m real, and I treat every client that way at every price point. What I do best is price a home right, negotiate hard, and bring everyone to the table at the end of the day feeling protected and like they won.”

Client words

Buyers & sellers

Maren offered expert advice through every step of the process, from deciding on a listing price to negotiating the final sale price. The sales materials she developed accentuated the attributes of our home and caused people to want to visit the property. Maren was always available to answer any question that may arise. We would highly recommend Maren and HM Properties if you are selling or buying a property.

Randy & Joyce Long, sellers

She is awesome. She cares about her clients and works for a win-win with other agents to get the transaction done.

Leslie F., client

Maren is fabulous. We started working with her 15 years ago and to date she's helped me buy 3 homes and sell 2. Always honest, always responsive, always advocating for her client.

Repeat client, Charlotte

Maren had a clear vision of the optimal sales and marketing strategy and executed it flawlessly.

Seller, Charlotte

Professional, smart, driven, and an absolute expert on the Charlotte market. Maren recently sold our house in just one day for 99 percent of our list price.

Sellers, Charlotte

Moving across the country was so much smoother because she was our agent. I could not have done this process without her.
