John Trudel

Twenty-nine years on the island

John Trudel has sold Nantucket real estate for 29 years from the Maury People Sotheby's International Realty office on Main Street. His work centers on the island's second-home and luxury segment: harborfront in Brant Point, historic homes in Town, the quiet of Siasconset, and the south shore from Cisco to Tom Nevers.

Nantucket is a market of scarcity and rules. The Historic District Commission governs what can be built or changed, conservation land limits supply, and the summer season sets the selling calendar. John's value is knowing which properties will clear those constraints and which will not, before a buyer commits.

Trust first

John describes real estate as a source of fulfillment rather than a job, and his approach reflects it. He works on honesty, communication, and follow-through, and tailors the search to each client rather than running everyone through the same list.

How Haven Bureau works with John

Haven Bureau introduces Nantucket buyers to John after a private consultation. He handles the search, showings, negotiation, and closing directly through Maury People Sotheby's International Realty. Haven Bureau does not represent buyers or sellers and does not take part in the transaction.
