Jim Fullilove, Waterfront "Buyers Broker", Joins Our Team.
Jim Fullilove lived the dream that many people have of leaving the hustle-bustle of the big city behind and moving to Maine. Many years ago, he traded the congestion of the New York City area and the long commute by train to Manhattan for a 100 acre lakeside “farm” complete with apple orchard, trout stream and horse barn. Sounds great, but the move turned up a few funny missteps and some hard lessons along the way—all good things to know if you’re planning a similar move. Just ask him.
Jim’s background is an interesting patchwork of magazine publishing, construction and all things related to boats. In his younger days, a stint as an equipment operator and house carpenter coupled with a penchant for journalism landed him a job as an editor with a construction magazine. A passion for sailing and the desire for a more laid-back lifestyle brought him to Maine and a job with National Fisherman and WorkBoat magazines. For the past decade or so, in his spare time he’s been editor of Marine Electronics Journal.
All of this—an insider’s knowledge of home construction, a love of boats, fishing and the sea, and good communication skills—prepared him well for selling waterfront real estate in Maine, which he’s done for the past seven years. Jim works only with buyers. He prefers to deliver concierge service to clients who dream of finding the perfect waterfront property, rather than trying to serve the sellers of properties as well.
Jim and his wife, Jeanne, live on a small horse farm a couple miles from Camden and Penobscot Bay. He’s still into boats and boating, only instead of the sloop he used to cruise aboard in Long Island Sound and beyond, he now messes around in sailing dinks and kayaks on the river behind his house—and takes friends up on their offers to crew aboard their larger boats every chance he gets.
