Who we are 
Each of our associates has extensive Martha’s Vineyard real estate experience. We also bring a wide variety of professional, personal, and community involvement that deepens our expertise in real estate and our connections with the island. Prior to joining Tea Lane Associates, our brokers and agents have worked in fields as wide ranging as investment banking, finance, and insurance, to fashion merchandising, education, and professional sports, as well as hospitality, philanthropy, public relations, culinary skills and the arts. Our associates serve on local boards and volunteer with many community organizations including Polly Hill Arboretum, MV Youth, the Island Food Pantry, the Aquinnah Public Library and the Coalition to Create the MV Housing Bank. This service work enriches our understanding of the Vineyard as home. Just like our clients, we love the island. Our team has built, bought and sold our own homes on Martha’s Vineyard and we know personally the rewards and challenges involved. We recognize that our most valuable resource is the body of knowledge and experience that we offer each other and our clients. We invite you to contact us at the links below.
