Marieke van Donkersgoed was born in the Netherlands and raised between cultures on several continents. She fell in love with this area like so many others do, when her new husband introduced her to the Bayfield Peninsula in 2000. They made their home and raised their son on a wooded acreage in the Washburn countryside. Marieke has a background in business organization and marketing and has worked in a variety of industries.
Having moved seven times in her adult life, she understands the emotional impact of home searching, buying, and selling. She prides herself in having guided hundreds of clients through the (sometimes challenging) process with success, leading to many friendships with those who settled in the area with her help.
Marieke loves to read and write and to establish deep relationships and connections. She enjoys being involved in the economic, cultural, and natural wellbeing of the area and its people.
Marieke is actively involved with efforts to keep the local communities healthy and sustainable, while also protecting the natural beauty of Lake Superior and her surroundings.
Marieke has been in the Bayfield area real estate business since 2003 and earned her stripes with close to 40 million dollars’ worth of transactions. She has ownership in Broad Street Brokers LLC and is responsible for daily operations as Supervising Broker.
This was our third time working with Marieke from Broad Street Brokers, on buying or selling property. Personally and professionally she can't be beat! Her strong knowledge of the area ensures you will get an honest and credible sale. We highly recommend her to help you with your sale or purchase.
Marieke is very professional. She understood what we needed and made it happen for us. She helped us sell our house and buy a house within weeks of each other. Awesome person! I can’t thank her enough.
From our first call to Marieke from out of state we found her to be professional and helpful. Upon meeting her and during subsequent visits she was accommodating and tireless in her efforts to show us all the properties we were interested in. Her intimate knowledge of the area confidently steered us in the direction of our forever home. We are grateful for her help, happy to be her new neighbors, and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to relocate to the Lake Superior/northern Wisconsin area.
