"We're excited to welcome Marlene and Spike to the company," said Terri Bracciale, regional president of the company's Baltimore metro region.

"She recommended that I get my license back in 2001, which I did, and we then became friends through the Women's Council of Realtors. I can personally vouch for Marlene's integrity and professionalism, and we are all so pleased that she and Spike have decided to affiliate with us."
Sands has been a resident of Ocean City since 1994 and has been delivering superior service to his clients since entering the business in 2010.
