Why Work With Marisa?

Why work with Marisa? Marisa epitomizes integrity, energy, hard work, and creative service in every detail of a real estate transaction. Marisa was born and raised in North Dakota and has been a Washington resident since 2001. She entered into new home sales after graduating in 2005 with a Bachelors Degree in Education. Marisa is known for her 24/7 availability, outstanding client service, and helping new homebuyers achieve their goals. She looks forward to hearing from you!

As a dependable, determined, and dedicated real estate professional, REALTOR® Marisa Merritt brings her hard work ethic and tenacious attitude to assist her clients in any way she can! Clients can depend on Marisa to be there for them when they need her, and they can truly count on her to persevere in helping them succeed. Marisa is dedicated to providing the same high level of customer service that she would expect from an agent.
With 14 years of experience in real estate, Marisa’s first-hand knowledge of dealing with a high volume of transactions has helped her become the REALTOR® she is today. For over 8 years, Marisa worked with several private and public area builders, giving her the opportunity to see all that goes into the real estate process. Not only did she learn the paperwork side of things, but she also learned about what goes into creating something from start to finish, from acquiring land and developing it all the way to a project’s final completion.
Before joining us at Windermere Professional Partners, Marisa was with Windermere West Campus in Federal Way. She has lived in Gig Harbor for the past 6 years, and is a proud Mama to two littles, Dash and Jersey. Gig Harbor is the area Marisa has chosen to grow her business in, and she’s excited to be a part of a team of true professionals. She’s looking forward to learning from and collaborating with other agents at WPP, in part so she can strengthen and grow her own business. Marisa is also looking forward to the marketing support and strong education offerings that are provided, all so she can become an even better REALTOR®!
In her free time, Marisa loves quality time with her family and a good sweat sesh!  When not chasing kids around, she remains active with running, riding her Peloton, and strength training at The Club at Gig Harbor.  Marisa and her husband are avid sports followers, love spending time in the sun, playing golf, cooking, and going wine tasting.

Q: What can clients expect when working with you? How do you typically communicate with them?

A: In order to provide the best level of customer service for each individual client and truly help them achieve their real estate goals, I need to get to know each client on a personal level. In doing so, my clients become my friends. Those relationships don't just stop when the home sale closes—they continue on into lifelong friendships.

Q: Tell us more about the kind of real estate you specialize in! What neighborhoods do you work in?

A: I specialize in residential real estate throughout Pierce County.
