Poe had been recommended to me, and I'm very happy with everything she did. As a first-time home buyer, I had lots of questions, and she came through. She crafted an excellent offer (which was accepted very quickly). I strongly recommend her!
Harriet Hubbard
Poe was very helpful through the entire process of my buying experience. She responded quickly, supplied answers to questions and communicated clearly at all times. I felt very confident that I was getting the best representation and enjoyed working with Poe. I found her personable and practical - and would definitely work with her again!
Bolensen
Poe is the consummate professional. Every step of the way, I would get texts with things like, "oh, that's an easy fix - no worres" or "Let me negotiate on your behalf." She saved us over $17,000 in the sale, as well. And, she worked diligently with our selling agent in Dallas, Texas - truly made incredible decisions that affected, positively, the outcome of the sale. As much stress that could be imagined, it was not anywhere near as stressful. Closing only took an hour - and we couldn't be happier with the process. Thank you, Poe. Anyone needing the very best in agents -shop no further...Poe Cilley is the best of the best. Bravo, Poe! Bravo!!!

Our experience with Poe exceeded expectations. First, she is a great listener, understood what we were looking for and found it. She then expertly guided us through the buying process including 3rd party vendors. She is well connected and made things happen in a timely fashion. Not only is Poe a strong professional, great advovate, but a fine person as well.

Poe was a tremendous help in finding our lot to build our dream home in Maine. Poe listened to our needs and wants. Poe has a great knowledge of the area and helped us narrow down properties for when we came to town. The best part Poe is a very kind person and easy to work with.
Expertly knowledgeable and really responsive. She knows the Midcoast as well as anyone. We are lucky to have partnered with her. She was adept at recognizing properties that were worth investment and honestly providing feedback on those she thought were not a great fit for us.

We are first time home buyers and Poe was in our corner helping guide us through every step of the process. She spent countless hours with us answering our questions, provided excellent referrals to all of the key players in the process, and helped us successfully negotiate the purchase of the first property we made an offer on (impressive in this market). She knows Midcoast Maine inside and out. Most of all she is kind, caring, and was eager to help us find the perfect farmhouse. We simply cannot recommend her highly enough.

In an environment where health and safety have upended all business, Poe Cilley has kept the core facets of her business - clear communication and incredible empathy - simple. She listens to prospective clients and then delivers on her promises. That's simply delightful. Objectively, Poe lives locally; she has a vast network of merchants and tradespeople who respect her and also provide excellent work. Our experience with Poe was equal to or better than any real estate buying experience we've had. Highly recommended. #shoplocal #localexpertise
Poe expertly crafted our successful offer to purchase, using negotiating tactics that we would have been unaware of. She was quite lucid in presenting the financial and real estate issues to us, making it much easier to make decisions. Poe also provided the necessary emotional support, counseling caution or enthusiasm as needed. Poe has our heartiest recommendation.
Poe helped us buy, sell, and buy again in Maine. From first contact, she is quick, professional, and meticulous in guiding us through all the steps of buying and selling. We have sold and bought many houses and she is, without a doubt, the best real estate agent we have worked with. Thanks, Poe!

Topsham, ME
Our daughter used Poe as her agent and we naturally gravitated to her, not knowing anyone else. We were extremely blessed with Poe as our agent. She worked hard, tirelessly. We used her on a lot of potential deals. Some fell through (we were unsuccessful bidders on some) but Poe continued to work with us and for us. She encouraged us--and we landed the house we did by following Poe's advice which comes from a great deal of experience in the Maine real estate business. We highly recommend her! Our other daughter is using her as well, and the right house will come along; Poe will make sure she gets the right one!

I have worked with Poe for several different housing needs - purchasing as well as selling. She is my go-to realtor, and I recommend her to anyone who wants a knowledgable, experienced, and well-respected individual in real estate to work with.
Poe is incredibly knowledgeable and easy to work with. She patiently answered all of our questions and gave us helpful advice. We are very pleased with our experience with her and thrilled with our new cottage!
Poe is a highly polished professional bringing extensive knowledge and experience with a thorough understanding of the real estate markets and a straightforward and savvy problem solving approach. Her attention to detail, honesty, and integrity brought pleasure buying my lifelong dream home and selling two additional homes of mine within an extremely complicated schedule and short timeframe; stress free and uncomplicated. Poe was sensitive and understanding of my needs and desires, being extremely responsive and offering helpful advise. I am so grateful for all her hard work and tenacity, that I highly recommend and without hesitation, Poe Cilley to anyone considering real estate investment. Great job Poe!!!

After viewing a property listing that I was interested in, I called the Zillow number to be put in touch with a local realtor that could assist me. The Zillow operator told me that I would receive a call from someone very soon. Within 10-15 minutes, I received a call from Poe Cilley, who introduced herself over the phone. Poe's mannerism over the phone was unbelievable. She was not only very knowledgeable and helpful, she was also very genuine, and struck me as a person who really wanted to help me. I remember when I ended my conversation with Poe, I made the comment to my wife, that the realtor that I just spoke to seemed very nice. Boy was this an understatement. Through the next several weeks, Poe assisted me every step of the way with the obstacles that arose in purchasing this property. With me not being from this geographical area, Poe, took it upon herself to assist me with securing an attorney, having someone check the title, as well as meeting several construction inspectors at the property by herself, due to me not being able to make the long out of state drive. In short, I can't say enough about how much of a caring person, and excellent realtor, that she is. I would absolutely recommend Poe, to anyone that I care about.

Lovell, ME
Our situation was difficult because not only did we have to sell one property before we bought, but we were two separate parties that were buying one property, each with our own needs. Poe did a great job listening to what each of us wanted and provided us with a great assortment of properties to look at. After the viewings she would sit down with us and discuss the property in detail, what she like, didn’t like, what we though, etc and help us come to a decision as to whether to put a bid on the property and how much to bid making sure we were not out bidding the market for the area, protecting our possible investment. Once our bid was accepted, she provided home inspectors and title companies to finish off the closing and was present at the home inspections and final walk throughs. Things got tight near the end, as we ended up closing on the property were were selling one week before we closed on the other property and Poe took everything in stride showing confidence in the timing of the two closings keeping us, and most importantly, the seller, calm and focused. She has the great combination of being kind, attentive and business worthy and we would highly recommend her to anyone.
Natasha
Georgetown, ME
My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Poe as our real estate agent when purchasing a home in Maine, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Poe's knowledge of the local market was exceptional, guiding us through every step of the process with expertise and professionalism. She was incredibly responsive and always available to answer our questions, providing valuable insights and advice. Poe's dedication to helping us close on our house was evident in her attention to detail and commitment to our needs and preferences. Thanks to Poe's guidance and expertise, we now have our dream vacation home in Maine, and I highly recommend her services to anyone in search of a dedicated and knowledgeable real estate agent.

Poe came highly recommended to me by another Maine realtor who friends had used to sell their waterfront property in the same town. My potential sale did not fit his criteria so he suggested Poe as the most knowledgeable person in the area to market my land. He said she had many years of experience in this area and he would utilize her skills under the same circumstances. From the moment I first spoke to her on the phone, I felt very comfortable and confident calling her with any questions I had or any issues that came up. Because of some of the town and state requirements that we needed to deal with, her knowledge became invaluable. She always knew the right person to call or what to do and there were many such occasions that she quickly took care of so that we could move on with the process. She also is astute at reading people and knowing the best way to approach them. She is very responsive and immediate in her communication skills when a call or email is made or sent. I do feel she went above and beyond as there were some unusual circumstances that occurred during this sale and I always felt secure it would all work out because of her attitude and knowledge. I made the right choice!
