Meet Patty Leland, Owner - Principal Broker - REALTOR ®
Patty purchased what is now Martha's Vineyard Vacation Rentals & Sales Inc, in 1985 when it was a small central booking agency for Martha's Vineyard inns and hotels. Shortly thereafter, it became evident that the home rental market was in need of an independent booking agency devoted solely to the promotion of rental homes. The rest is a history that spans 35 years. Martha's Vineyard Vacation Rentals inc. is run and operated as a boutique vacation home rental company with all the benefits of today's technology.
Devoted to hospitality and details with guests, and an expert in marketing vacation homes for her owners, Patty has successfully developed Martha's Vineyard Vacation Rentals Sales into the most recognized and successful vacation rental agency on Martha's Vineyard. Patty will tell you that throughout the decades of service to renters and owners alike, she owes much of her success to the professional staff with whom she is surrounded.
Meet Karen Brown, Managing Broker - Sales, REALTOR ®, ABR
Karen moved from Central NY (too much snow!) to Martha’s Vineyard 24 years ago with her husband and 2 children. It has been a love affair since day one. The draw of the ocean and the beauty of the landscape captured her heart. She began her real estate career in 2005. Her love of the Vineyard has made selling and renting Island homes her passion. Nothing makes her smile more than knowing she has helped a family begin a journey that will enrich their lives forever. She has successfully sold over $25,000,000 in real estate and has placed thousands of travelers in rental homes.
Prior to moving to the Vineyard, Karen worked in the corporate world for 20 years. While working at National Grid, she won several awards for computer innovations in the area of training. This background has helped her stay on top of new and emerging technologies in the real estate field.
“I think I have chosen the prettiest place in the world to land and would love to share this experience with everyone I know. A feeling of safety and calm is one of the most compelling reasons for living on the Vineyard.”
