Denise Mai-Realtor

My background

I earned a B.A. in Communications and Advertising from the University of Idaho in 1991 where I lettered in Track and Field and was a member of Alpha Phi Fraternity. I had a great experience at U of I where I received a great education, somehow managed to jump far enough to hold the school triple jump record for awhile, and formed many lifelong friendships. I began my career in newspapers beginning with The Journal of Business and Spokesman-Review in Spokane and finally, after a twelve year hiatus as a stay-at-home mom, I ended my newspaper career at the Coeur d’Alene Press. I leapt into the real estate world a few years ago and I feel absolutely grateful to have found a second career that I love so much.

These days, I live with my husband, two kids, cat and dog in Hayden, ID. While I love cruising around Hayden Lake on our boat, golfing, or eating at any number of great restaurants in the Spokane/Coeur d’Alene area, you will most often find me on the tennis courts. Additionally, both my husband, Mike, and I are still involved with the University of Idaho. Mike serves as President of our Vandal Booster Club, I try to be as involved as I can, and our daughter is attending school there.

How I Can Help You

I am passionate about what I do. So much so that sometimes it’s hard to turn it off at the end of the day—because I don’t want to! That passion drives me to go the extra mile for my clients. I take the time to listen to you and learn what you are looking for when buying or selling a house. I am patient with you and understand that buying and selling a home is a big decision. I work hard to make it easier on you.

Navigating today’s real estate market can be tough but if you work with me, you will have a full-time Realtor who is on-the-ball, educated about the market, readily available, and who works with you and for you to achieve your goals.
