Danielle Ventre has joined the firm of Badger Peabody & Smith Realty and will be based at the firm's North Conway office.

While Ventre also works and is a licensed real estate agent in Massachusetts, the Mount Washington Valley is not new to her.

Ventre said, "My family have been second homeowners and coming to the Lakes Region and Mount Washington Valley for over four decades. My husband and I have been homeowners in North Conway for the past four years."

Ventre became a licensed real estate agent in 2013 and has a strong background in business management, accounting and finance in the construction industry. At the end of 2021, she decided to leave her corporate finance position to concentrate on real estate full time. To that end, she became a licensed agent in the state of New Hampshire as well.

Brendan Battenfelder, VP of Sales at Badger Peabody & Smith Realty said, "The addition of Danielle to our team has been terrific. With her residential construction background, her knowledgebase is a real asset to our clients and customers."

Ventre added, "I thoroughly enjoy doing my best for our clients and customers no matter how small or big the task. Every day in the real estate profession is different, and I find it to be the most gratifying career I have ever had. It is truly what I was meant to do." She added, "The minute I decided to work in the Mt. Washington Valley, I knew Badger Peabody & Smith Realty was the best fit. The whole team at the North Conway and Jackson offices have been welcoming and supportive. It is a pleasure to work with such a great team."

As a home owner in the area, Ventre enjoys hiking, boating and skiing and snowmobiling in the winter. With three grown children, they enjoy time together and spending time at the lakes and mountains of the area.
