Meet Mary Lou Bailey!

Mary Lou is originally from Minnesota, attended Marquette University in Milwaukee, and then moved to Chicago where she began to raise a family in suburban Winnetka.  Even then, she was extremely active in community service organizations.

In 1973, the lure of the Islands first attracted Mary Lou and her family.  By 1978, Sanibel was home.  Within a year, she received her real estate license and applied her energy and enthusiasm to helping Buyers and Sellers meet their objectives.  Upon receiving her Broker’s license in 1983, Mary Lou joined Priscilla Murphy Realty as a full-time Broker Associate.  For 22 years at PMR she was successful in providing her clients with the most reliable, attentive, professional service possible.  From 2005 until mid 2009 Mary Lou worked at other Island real estate offices.   In 2009 an opportunity to join VIP Realty Group was presented and Mary Lou determined that VIP’s reputation for excellence and its powerful marketing position was an upward career opportunity and she enthusiastically joined VIP.

Mary Lou is a member of the Sanibel Captiva Association of Realtors, the Florida Association of Realtors and the National Association of Realtors.  She has served as a Director and member of many Island committees and task forces throughout the years.  When she’s not busy in the real estate business, Mary Lou Bailey describes her life on Sanibel as the fulfillment of a dream…to live and raise her family on these enchanted Islands.  As a full-time Island resident, she has been able to enthusiastically participate on every level in the life of the Islands!
