Mary C. Rae
Realtor - Broker Associate
Kentwood City Properties, Denver

Profile:

The illustrious real estate career of Mary Rae has spanned three
decades of extraordinary achievement, marked by official
recognition by her peers, and the Mayor and City Council of Denver.

She grew up and was educated in Denver, and is intimately familiar
with the history and charms of each of its neighborhoods and their
unique amenities.

Inspired by the vision of a revived inner-city renaissance, she
embarked on her real estate career in 1971, and by 1975 was the
owner of her own Denver brokerage company. In the years following,
she earned a national reputation as one of the prominent promoters
of Denver's inner city revival.

Through her efforts, many historic and architecturally significant
properties built by the city and state's early pioneer leaders were
saved from demolition and `recycled' to new residential and
business use. Her efforts were chronicled in the pages of The
Denver Post, Rocky Mountain News, and The Wall Street Journal of
the period.

By the late 1980s she earned a city-wide reputation as a
pace-setting broker for Denver's luxury condominium market. She is
a specialist for buyers and sellers of fine residences valued at $1
million and up.

In 1996 she was named `Salesperson of the Year' by her peers at the
Denver Board of Realtors, a coveted award given to its most
noteworthy and successful member during the year.

In 1998, when she sold the historic building that housed her
company's own offices, she retired from running her own business,
and eventually joined Kentwood City Properties with an office in
lower downtown Denver.

In an official 2002 resolution, the Mayor and City Council of
Denver recognized her and two others for their years of success
promoting the value of the city's inner-city neighborhoods as a
place to live.

A gourmet cook, accomplished gardener, and mother of two grown
children, she is fastidious about her own residence, and has a keen
insight to the needs of her seller and buyer clients when they
engage her considerable expertise.

"I've been best at matching my clients to the perfect property -
whether it's a cottage or a castle. Expertise isn't expensive -
it's priceless!"
