Littleton, NH – Maggie Jones of Lancaster, a seasoned real estate agent for over 6 years, has changed brokerages and joined the firm of Badger Peabody & Smith Realty and will be based at the firm's Littleton office.

For Jones, her career in real estate started by chance. Jones said, "I moved to New Hampshire in 2015, began my own photography business, and set out to buy my first house. In the eight months of actively searching for the perfect home, I found I had cultivated a skill for real estate and really enjoyed it."

While based out of the Littleton office, Jones expects to continue to assist sellers and buyers in the greater Lancaster area and beyond. As with most of the agents in the Littleton office, Jones is also licensed in Vermont as well to assist folks on either side of the Connecticut River.

Badger Peabody & Smith Realty's Broker/Owner Andy Smith said, "Many of our agents have worked with Maggie in the past on a number of closings and the comments and feedback about Maggie and her level of professionalism really stood out. We are pleased to welcome Maggie to our team." He added, "Maggie will be working alongside Nikki Barrett in our Littleton office to learn more about our vision, company culture and our philosophy of putting the needs of our customers and clients first. Our philosophy is paramount in all of our transactions and it is something Maggie is completely familiar with as she's been doing that all along during her career."

When not working, Jones enjoys cycling, hiking, gardening and spending time outside with her partner and their dogs. She is also involved in the community serving on an advisory committee for the Northern Forest Center, the Lancaster Master Plan Committee, and is Vice Chair of the Lancaster Planning Board.

A strong work ethic and a zest for life are qualities that define Zachary Hawkins. 

The Lisbon Regional School graduate earned his undergrad degree at Keene State College and completed his Master's work at Plymouth State University. After travelling around the country for months, he came to the conclusion that "I just love it here" and returned to the White Mountains region. He has joined Badger Peabody & Smith Realty as a sales associate in the Littleton office.

Zach notes that hard work is normal for him, always working at several jobs while juggling extracurricular activities and community involvement. As a full time educator in 2018, Hawkins worked in both hospitality and as a carpenter during the summer months while earning his real estate license.

"Everything just seemed to click," he says. "The combination of my knowledge, experience, and skill set just came together naturally, and I knew real estate was for me."

Since late 2018, Zach has represented clients in over 100 transactions and in $21 million dollars worth of real estate. He has sold single-family homes, assisted with vetting raw land for a new build, worked with multi-family investors, and assisted second homeowners looking to rent their property for income while they are not using it.

"Real estate forces me to continuously grow," he says. "No transaction is the same, and this competitive market demands innovation to be successful. I am a believer in real estate. I have invested in several apartment buildings myself and have opened a small property maintenance company."

"We are so pleased that Zach has joined our team," says Andy Smith, Badger Peabody & Smith Realty President and CEO. "Zach's wide-ranging skills and especially his experience as a teacher translate so well to real estate because we work to help educate buyers and sellers about the process and help guide them through the transaction.
