New Agent Spotlight: LisaMarie Shepard

Client-focused and involved in the community, LisaMarie Shepard is here to help homebuyers and sellers. She recently joined our Windermere Kingston office, and we’re delighted to have her on our team. Learn about her professional background, interests, and more in our Q & A.

What drew you to real estate?

I love helping people, and I learned so much when purchasing my home in 2021. I also wanted to provide for my family in a different way, so I got my license. It’s been a rewarding experience, and every day is different. I’m grateful for Windermere’s supportive environment and resources, which empower me to deliver the best possible experience to my clients.

What unique skills do you possess that enhance your abilities as a Realtor?

With over a decade of customer service experience and 13 years as a Dental Assistant, I bring a unique blend of skills to the real estate table. My ability to connect with people, understand their needs, and communicate effectively will undoubtedly shine in this industry. My attention to detail, organization, and problem-solving skills honed from my professional background are invaluable in navigating the intricacies of a real estate transaction.

What personality traits do you think are important in this profession?

In this line of work, traits like empathy, communication, attention to detail, resilience, and integrity are key. Being able to connect with clients, understand their needs, and guide them through the process with professionalism and care sets the foundation for a successful Realtor-client relationship.

Which areas do you serve?

I serve all of Kitsap County and the surrounding areas.

How long have you lived here, and what brought you here?

I came to Washington from California when I was 12 and have been here ever since. I have lived in the same home for 8 years and bought it as a single mom.

How are you involved in the community?

I am as involved as I can be. I am on the Board of Directors for the Kitsap County Association of Realtors, a member of the National Association of Realtors, and, through Windermere, a member of the Kingston Chamber of Commerce. I attend as many of their events as possible. I am a huge advocate of the ShareNet Food Bank, Kitsap Humane Society, and Boys and Girls Club. I am on the PTO at my daughter’s elementary school, and I host my neighborhood community events.

What made you decide to work with Windermere?

I was drawn to Windermere Real Estate because of its reputation for excellence, strong community presence, and commitment to client satisfaction. Their values align with my own, particularly in providing exceptional service and giving back to the community.

Is there anything else you’d like to share with us?

My youngest daughter, Sophia, is VERY involved with my real estate career. Please know if you meet her at a local event, she will probably color you a picture to hang on your fridge. You can often find me out walking my Doberman, Thena. I love where I live! Kingston is very dear to my heart, as is Kitsap County. I have raised 3 children here in the Kingston area. I went to Pearson Elementary and Poulsbo Middle School, and I graduated from North Kitsap High School. I also have an associate’s degree in business arts. I am very proud of how far I have come, and I am excited for my future.
