Marcy Cohen Real Estate LLC

My legal background emphasizing trust and integrity and my personal experience in buying, selling, and investing in property help me support clients with all their real estate needs. With over 30 years as an active attorney in Rhode Island, I understand the importance of trust between a client and advisor. I bring this commitment to trust and integrity, coupled with my love of real estate and my p

ersonal experience in buying, selling, and investing in property, to my role as a real estate professional. After recently relocating from Rhode Island for my husband’s job in technology, I have fallen in love with the Pacific Northwest. Coming from the Ocean State, the lakeside beaches and boats dotting Puget Sound immediately felt familiar. Unmatched, however, were the majestic mountains on every horizon that have continuously filled me with awe. As an avid foodie, I am thrilled by the abundance of restaurants offering global cuisines, which has reawakened my passion for the language and culture I studied at Wellesley College, where I graduated Cum Laude with a B.A. in Japanese Studies and Religion. The welcoming community has confirmed my decision that Washington is my new forever home. Despite my deep roots in Rhode Island, the move to Washington presented an exciting opportunity to pursue my lifelong passion for real estate. My legal background, including graduating Cum Laude with a J.D. from Boston University School of Law and being published in the Probate Law Journal, has equipped me with a strong foundation in contracts, property, legal writing, and negotiation skills. Furthermore, with the knowledge gained from my recent cross-country relocation, I now intimately understand the needs, wants, emotions, and intricate logistics involved in such a significant life event. It’s not just about the transaction of selling or buying a home, it’s the overwhelming details of the move itself and the feelings involved in uprooting your life. I relate to that on a very personal level, and I apply that understanding, along with my newfound knowledge of the many ways Washington real estate laws differ from those in other regions, to every real estate transaction I facilitate by supporting my clients with all of their relocation needs. Although I am still a licensed attorney in Rhode Island, I am not licensed to practice law in Washington. However, this new chapter in my life has allowed me to focus entirely on real estate. The distinctive Pacific Northwest architecture, with its blend of natural elements and modern design reflecting the region’s stunning landscapes and climate, contrasts beautifully with the historic colonial architecture of New England. This has inspired me to voraciously learn about all the unique regional house styles in the local neighborhoods, which I am truly enjoying. I currently reside on Mercer Island with my husband. I have two sons, one who lives in Kirkland and works in tech, and one who is studying for a Ph.D. I spend my free time volunteering with local organizations, playing VR, and exploring my new home with my family by hiking, walking, swimming, geocaching, traveling, and trying a new restaurant every week. I look forward to helping you, your family, and your friends navigate the Washington real estate process as a trusted advisor.
