About Me

My photo
After running a local furniture store for 10 years, Chez Renee Home Furnishings, I felt it was time to get out of the retail world of home furnishings and sell the whole house instead. I bring with me that entrepreneurial drive and determination to assist those in either buying or selling your home. I have been married for 21 years to Glen Hudgens and we have two daughters, Kortnie 20 and Miranda 16. I love to be active in the business and residential community of Bangor. I've lived in several other areas of Maine, Massachusetts and California, but the Bangor region is where my heart is. I love to constantly show people all that the area has to offer.
