My family and I worked with Scott and from first meeting to last he was amazing. Anytime that I called, he'd either answer or call back within 10 minutes. He was able to answer of my questions ( and I had many). He was very patient with me and understood my family's needs. I would recommend Scott whole heartedly.

Lindsae has been amazing to work with. She helped us move into our first home back when the market was hectic at the start of covid. She made that experience painless and easy. We obviously used her again for our next chapter in our lives while helping us close another. Managing to navigate us on a great deal on our new home while getting our old home under contract within 96-hours above asking price. Couldn't be happier. Thank you for everything.

I had a fantastic experience with Melissa and Scott Young. They were extremely accommodating, helpful and personable.
I had a small window to do house viewings and they were very helpful helping me get all the viewings I needed.
They also communicated all critical information quickly and clearly, all the way through to closing.
Great experience and would highly recommend both!

From start to finish, Lindsae was a true pleasure to work with. She helped us purchase our house in Knox in 2016 and helped us sell the same house in 2022. She explained the process in as much detail as we needed, answered questions as they arose, was responsive to messages and went above and beyond at the closing when hiccups arose. She is friendly, straightforward, accommodating, personable and is truly a gift to the Young-Fish team.

Lindsae is the best agent we have ever had. She is absolutely passionate and patient and really knows how to get everything done on her part to finding and closing on a home. Lindsae was with us from start to finish no matter what crazy we threw at her. This is our 4th house we have bought and only wish Lindsae was with us for the other 3. Highly recommend Lindsae over and over all day and will always recommend her over anyone else. Still not sure how we got so lucky with her.

My wife and I did a LOT of work to our house and after a frustrating time talking to an old realtor we had used who marginalized what we did and wanted to list at a low price, the Young’s gave us true professionalism with market analysis, comparative listings, and reasonable pricing and sales plans. With their help and ideas and constant encouragement, we had multiple offers and considerations within a day of the listing being active. We were truly grateful to have worked with them and felt like we had a television realtor experience! I would recommend anyone work with them!

They were always assuring us our house would come along during this difficult process and they were right. It was a pleasure working with them and we are grateful for all they did to help us buy our first home.

They demonstrated a deep understanding of the local real estate market and provided us with valuable insights and guidance throughout the entire process. They listened attentively to our needs and preferences, and searched for properties that met our criteria. Their prompt communication and responsiveness were truly impressive, and we always felt like a priority client.
Once we found the perfect home, Scott and Missy Young went above and beyond to negotiate on our behalf and ensure that we received the best possible deal. Their attention to detail and thoroughness in reviewing contracts and documents gave us the confidence that our interests were protected at every step. They were also proactive in coordinating with other parties involved, such as the seller, lender, and escrow company, to ensure a smooth and timely closing.
Beyond their professionalism, Scott and Missy exhibited genuine care and commitment towards our satisfaction. They patiently answered all our questions and provided expert advice, making sure we had a clear understanding of the process and felt comfortable with our decisions.

Scott and Missy were the biggest asset in the selling of our home. From the first day we met with them we felt at ease. They were knowledgeable and professional but also fun and personable. We could not have anticipated the twists and turns this journey would take. Through every single obstacle they were right there guiding us and cheering us on. Today at the closing was no exception.

Lindsey did an awesome job of helping us secure our house at 300 West Broadway. She helped save us money by negotiating with the sellers and got money back toward necessary repairs. She made everything go smoothly and quickly with both the sellers and lenders. She let us see the house several times, walked through it and gave a lot of helpful feedback. We can’t thank her enough for all her efforts.

Lindsae did an absolutely outstanding job helping us buy our house. We bought from literally the other end of the country, and were not able to be around for most parts of the home buying process. She was there and handled everything for us and made it super easy and as least stressful as possible. If you are buying or selling a house in Maine, do yourself a favor and hire Lindsae as your realtor.

We will miss her being a frequent positive presence in our lives! We would highly recommend Lindsae to anyone looking to buy a house!

They helped us with everything including; finding a rental before we found a house, providing names of inspectors, an amazing mortgage broker, insurance agent. They are friendly, professional, kind, and extremely attentive and helpful at all times. They continue to offer their knowledge and assistance even after they helped us find our wonderful home.

Lindsae is a knowledgable professional and you can't go wrong with selecting her as your real estate agent. We've used Lindsae to sell and buy real estate in Maine and both times she went above and beyond to make sure our transactions were smooth. She is an advocate for her clients, is incredibly generous with her time, and somehow always available.
Lindsae's experience is a benefit to her clients in a magnitude of ways. She walked us through any issues and concerns that came up during the inspection process and even helped us troubleshoot some minor issues with a non functioning garage door (which was above and beyond her job description, but illustrates her dedication to her clients.)
We had a lot of questions and made many phone calls to her and she was always jovial, patient, and thorough with her explanations.
Post inspection, the home we were buying required quotes for some minor work and Lindsae managed the entire process for us, utilizing local professionals with whom she had established and trusted relationships with.
Select Lindsae as your real estate agent and you won't be sorry! Thanks, Lindsae!

They did a fantastic job selling our home. It sold at the expected amount and their communication throughout the process was incredible. All questions were answered promptly and all phone calls were returned within minutes. I would recommend them to everyone!

Lindsae went on quite a journey with our family over several years. She first showed us houses from Bangor and Brewer to Waterville and Oakland, and ultimately helped us buy land in Etna. She didn't just help us buy it, but she was there to answer questions about the steps after building, by connecting us to other professionals. Ultimately we had to relocate out of state for work, and she helped us sell the land. With her help we sold for more than I would have even imagined asking. I cannot recommend highly enough!

Scott and Missy made selling our home fun! Selling a home can be stressful, but not for us... we had so many showings we decided to stop them. We couldn't beleive it. We ended up selling our home for way over our asking price and it made our move to Florida so easy! Thank you Scott and Missy, you are the best we have seen in the real estate industry and we will definately continue to refer our friends and family to you! Thank you!

Lindsae is one of the best agents I have had the pleasure of working with over my real estate investing career. She has been an extremely valuable resource before, during, and after closings. I wholeheartedly recommend her and the Fish team.

Lindsae has been truly outstanding. When I first inquired about the house online, she got right back to me and has been great ever since. She provide me all information that I requested and did so promptly. It has been a long process through to closing, and we have been in constant contact throughout the entire process. She has a wonderful combination of knowledge and social skills. I haven't sold many homes in my lifetime, but she has been the best realtor I've worked with. She gets an outstanding rating from me.

This was the best home buying experience I could have ever hoped for. Coming from past experiences with different teams in different states, the difference is night and day. The empathy, kindness, professionalism, and work ethic absolutely blew me away, and, particularly at the end of our process, their understanding and kindness going so far above what was required genuinely left us emotional and touched. I will exclusively utilize Scott and Melissa for further property deals, as they're not only a joy to work with, but a joy to simply converse with and be around. Thanks so much guys.

Melissa and Scott were great to work with. They were incredibly helpful and insightful when we were touring houses, and incredibly prompt with their responses. They always helped us get answers to our questions, and made sure that we were taken care of during the inspection and buying process. And they even gave us a beautiful wreath to put on the front door of our new home. We couldn't be happier with how professional and helpful they were and we love our new home. I would absolutely recommend working with them!

As our agent for the second time, Lindsae once again lead the way through our purchase and sale with flying colors. Down to earth, responsive, experienced, and credible. Lindsae makes significant life events such as these as efficient and straightforward as possible. In many ways, Lindsae acted as both an advisor and coordinator in addition to her responsibilities as an agent.
Lindsae, THANK YOU for always taking the extra step to ensure us a smooth process! Your help and guidance has been greatly appreciated throughout the years. We look forward to working with you in the future!

Scott and Melissa did an amazing job of assisting us with our home purchase during our relocation from Missouri to Maine. They continually provided us information on properties that were available. They were always available to answer our questions, and explained everything from beginning to end, making it a very easy process. We would highly recommend them to anyone wishing to buy or sell a home.
"
- Kristen Quido

Having had a bad time during my last attempt at a home buying experience, Scott and Melissa handled everything and were honest and realistic. They quickly realized why we were looking for and our price range and didn’t waste time showing us homes we were not interested in. When we reached out with homes we found on Zillow or other sites, they were quick to get us a showing. When we found the house we wanted they were helpful every step of the way from putting in an offer to final walk through and closing. The great part is they are still around to help if we need anything. Will definitely be reaching out to them years from now when we decide to sell!
