MERLE BRUNO has received the National Association of Realtors e-PRO designation to use the most current computer and Internet marketing and social networking tools, and she has the SRES designation--Senior Real Estate Specialist. She keeps clients up-to-date on the marketing of their homes and their searches for new property. Merle worked at Hampshire College for over 38 years where she was on the Natural Science faculty and occasionally served as dean.

Until recently, Merle partnered in real estate with her husband Peter Vincent who has been a REALTOR® in the Valley for 30 years and before that worked as an energy conservation consultant and residential contractor. Peter has retired from active real estate to spend more time hiking, biking, and golfing, but he is still retains his real estate license and is around to provide advice, support, and referrals.

We signed with Merle and Peter on Feb. 12, 2016. Two offers came in over Easter weekend. Many showings, much marketing and just great PR overall is the trademark of Merle and Peter. We cannot begin to tell you how much they helped us being there, getting to know us, advising on what to do and what could be done later, helping organize and facilitate inspections and tradespeople and generally helping us be market ready. I think this is one of the fastest turn arounds in the area in recent times. When we truly needed professional help, being states away in Wisconsin, Merle and Peter came through every step of the way.
Merle is an experienced agent who is well acquainted with the housing inventory in Amherst, Northampton, and surrounding areas. She has good relationships with other agents and is willing to go the extra mile to get you the information or service you need.
