Shannon McInnis - North Shore Living Real Estate Group

Shannon McInnis is the founder of North Shore Living Real Estate Group, a residential real estate practice working the Massachusetts North Shore. Banker & Tradesman quoted her in August 2026 on why Peabody had become one of the country's hottest housing markets, which is the kind of local read a seller is buying when they hire an agent. The client accounts point the same way. A seller writing in July 2026 said she was detail-oriented and returned calls promptly, and described the mechanics of getting their house to market: after the owners did their own prep, she staged the home and had it photographed and filmed. They said friends and relatives rang them to say how well it showed, and that the house took an offer over asking within two days. On the buying side, a first-time buyer commenting in 2025 described patience and constant communication from the first uncertain conversation through to closing, and said she never felt pressured. Clients also describe her pointing them toward lenders, insurance providers and attorneys, so it is worth asking how she chooses the people she refers you to and whether any arrangement runs the other way. The practical caveat is volume. The public record behind her is short and uniformly positive, which is what a newer team's record looks like, so treat it as promising rather than proven. Ask her for the addresses and sale prices of her recent North Shore closings, ask how the listing preparation and staging she is praised for is paid for, and confirm her Massachusetts licence with the state before signing anything.
