Hi, my name is Maria Peterson and I've been an agent for the past 12 years.  I got into the business when my husband started his own construction company and he needed someone to help him write the contracts.  From such simply beginnings I've learned to not only write contracts but to understand them and to care about the clients I represent.  I enjoy this business.  I find great satisfaction in finding the perfect home and negotiating the best price for my clients.  I have 4 amazing children that bring me great joy and sometimes some gray hairs.  I have a one perfect husband who brings me tons of happiness and sometimes pains in my side. I play raquetball 3-4 times a month for the past 6 years and I love to cook a great meal 20-30 times a month for the past 25 years.  I read all sorts of books; about 6 or more a year. I ski with my family as much 15 times in a season and I boat, camp, hike, bike and dance as much as I can in a year! I love my life!
