About Maureen Harmonay
Your real estate advisor and advocate in Boca Raton and Delray Beach
I’m Maureen Harmonay, a trusted real estate advisor and advocate with William Raveis Real Estate in Boca Raton. I help buyers relocating from the Northeast find a home that fits the life they want to lead, and sellers of waterfront properties in Boca Raton and Delray Beach bring their homes to market with exceptional care and presentation.
For more than two decades in Massachusetts, I specialized in representing sellers of equestrian properties, country estates, and distinguished homes. I built my career on recognizing what made each property exceptional and presenting it with the care, polish, and individual attention it deserved. Across nearly three decades in real estate, my career residential sales total more than $210 million. I am also a longstanding member of The Institute for Luxury Home Marketing.
I bring that depth of luxury marketing experience to homeowners in Boca Raton and Delray Beach. I know how to bring a home’s finest qualities into focus, select the right professionals to present it beautifully, and create marketing that helps buyers appreciate its value. With William Raveis luxury marketing resources behind me, I take personal responsibility for the strategy and presentation of your home, and advocate for your interests through negotiation and closing.
Relocating from the Northeast to Boca Raton or Delray Beach
I know what it means to leave a familiar place and begin again. After building my real estate career in Massachusetts, including Concord, Harvard, and Bolton, I relocated to Boca Raton in January 2024. That perspective helps me anticipate the questions that arise when you are choosing both a home and a community from a distance.
If you are moving from Massachusetts, New York, Connecticut, New Jersey, or elsewhere in the Northeast, our work begins with how you want your days to feel. Perhaps that means mornings on the lanai, a boat behind your home, or an easy trip to the beach. We translate those priorities into a focused search, considering neighborhood character, property condition, ongoing costs, and the practicalities of living here.
My neighborhood videos and local market commentary help you get acquainted before you arrive. When we tour, I look closely at the details photographs can miss. You can expect candid advice, including a clear explanation when I believe a property deserves a second look or a different decision.
Selling a waterfront home in Boca Raton or Delray Beach
Your home has qualities a buyer needs to understand and appreciate. A sweeping water view, generous dockage, beautiful natural light, or the connection between indoor and outdoor spaces can shape its appeal. My job is to identify those strengths and make them central to the way your property is presented.
I combine William Raveis luxury marketing resources with complimentary professional home staging, biophilic design elements, and a custom property website. Professional photography and video tell a cohesive story about your home and the life it offers. Pricing and positioning are informed by recent sales, competing listings, and the features that distinguish your property.
Through The Waterfront Portfolio, I share market insights for Boca Raton and Delray Beach waterfront homeowners. That ongoing research informs the conversations we have about timing, preparation, and your place in the market.
Helping buyers feel at home
One question shapes the way I prepare a property: How can we make buyers feel better in this home than they did before they entered it?
My interest in biophilic design brings particular attention to natural light, living greenery, materials, and views. Thoughtful staging allows a home’s best features to come forward and helps buyers imagine themselves there. For a waterfront residence, that often means giving the view room to breathe and strengthening the connection to the outdoors.
I bring the same sensitivity to a home search, helping you notice which spaces feel comfortable and restorative, alongside the practical considerations that support a sound decision.

A personal connection to this community
Beyond real estate, my Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Honey, and I volunteer as a certified therapy dog team, visiting local nursing homes and schools. Those visits have become a meaningful part of the life I am building here.
