About Maine Home Connection
Maine Home Connection is an independent real estate brokerage headquartered in the heart of downtown Portland, Maine — where the working waterfront is our front yard and the communities of Greater Portland and Southern Maine are our home.
Founded by Michael and Laura Sosnowski in 2003, we set out to build something different. Not a franchise. Not a template. Something rooted in this place, shaped by the people who live here, and built around a simple conviction: that buying or selling a home in Maine should feel personal, transparent, and deeply connected to the community you’re choosing. Imagine More!
A Different Kind of Brokerage
Long before most brokerages thought about content, storytelling, or lifestyle marketing, we were investing in photography, video production, market reporting, and community-focused publishing. Today, our monthly publication The Monthly Connection, our library of Maine lifestyle videos, our neighborhood guides, and our real estate market reports have become trusted resources for buyers, sellers, and residents across Greater Portland and Southern Maine.
Where national portals are broad and generic, our experience is local and deep. We serve communities including Portland, South Portland, Falmouth, Cape Elizabeth, Scarborough, Yarmouth, Cumberland, Freeport, and Harpswell — and we know each one well.
What We Specialize In
We specialize in the properties and communities that make Maine exceptional — waterfront homes on Casco Bay, coastal properties along the Southern Maine shoreline, lake homes, and distinctive in-town Portland residences.
Whether you’re a first-time buyer, relocating to Maine from out of state, searching for a waterfront or luxury property, or preparing to sell, our team brings deep local expertise, candid market insight, and a standard of service built on relationships rather than transactions.

Who We Are & How We Work
We think of ourselves as a marketing and media company that sells real estate — not the other way around. That means we have a very different and professional way of providing real estate services in Maine. To learn more, visit: FAQs – Who is Maine Home Connection.
Our Approach
We identify as advisers, not salespeople. Our business has grown primarily through referrals and repeat clients, which tells us more about what we’re doing right than any volume metric ever could. We measure success by the trust our clients place in us — and by the long-standing partnerships that follow long after the closing.

What Guides Us
Integrity. We say what we mean and mean what we say. Real estate involves some of the biggest financial and emotional decisions people make, and we take that responsibility seriously. Our clients get honest information, candid advice, and a team they can trust — even when the truth is complicated.
Passion. We genuinely love Maine — its communities, its coastline, its character — and that enthusiasm is woven into everything we do.
From the way we write about a neighborhood to the way we present a home, passion isn’t a performance. It’s the reason we got into this in the first place.
Innovation. The real estate industry changes constantly, and we’ve never been content to follow. We were early adopters of video marketing, content publishing, and digital storytelling in Maine real estate — and we continue to invest in tools, technology, and ideas that give our clients a meaningful advantage.
Collaboration. Maine Home Connection works as a team — not a collection of individual agents competing under the same roof. Our clients benefit from the shared experience of every person in our organization, and our culture reflects a genuine commitment to helping each other succeed.
Winning. We define winning the way our clients do — a home sold at the right price, a purchase made with confidence, a move that opens the next chapter of someone’s life. We hold ourselves to a high standard because anything less isn’t worth our clients’ trust
Maine Is Home
Real estate, done right, is about more than transactions. It’s about helping people find their place in a community they love, make sound decisions with their most significant investment, and move forward with confidence. That’s what drives us every day.
If you’re thinking about a move, curious about the market, or simply want to understand what makes this corner of Maine so worth calling home — we’d love to talk.
The world of reality has its limits; the world of imagination is boundless.
