Great Point Properties is dedicated to the highest quality of client services in all aspects of real estate accentuated by professionalism, integrity and delivered with friendliness, warmth and a sense of pride in the island of Nantucket.

Great Point Properties was founded in 2002 by Greg McKechnie and Bill Liddle, and Edward Sanford founded Sanford Real Estate in 2003. All three had previous real estate rental and sales experience working for other island firms.  In 2008, Great Point Properties merged with Sanford Real Estate creating a strong Nantucket real estate partnership.

As a strategic measure to grow sales, Great Point Properties has developed a robust vacation rental business representing over 970 properties. We handled 1078 leases in 2016, and continue to focus on exceptional client service, as well as maintaining our online prominence and making consistent investments in local print advertising. The direct result of these efforts has enabled Great Point Properties to become a leading sales office on the island. In 2016, Great Point Properties was one the most active firms on Island (there are 40 active real estate offices on Nantucket). In 2016 we totaled $220,913,000 in sales volume or 23% of all transactions and closed 97 transactions or 19.5% of all deals.

Our steady growth has provided us with the ability to serve buyers and sellers with exceptional client care as well and the proven capacity to deliver the exposure that clients want to successfully market their property.

Since purchasing Sconset Real Estate in 2013, Great Point Properties has grown to 25 agents and 4 full time administrators. Sconset Real Estate has been the established real estate company for Sconset since 1950. Under Bernie and Carol Coffin’s guidance the Sconset office had five dedicated agents focused on the Sconset market. Those agents have a wealth of experience and will be able to use the resources of Great Point Properties and the affiliation with Christie’s International Real Estate to enhance the client experience.
