Corenna Quirk
I love Maine from the rugged coastline to the glorious western mountains, and everything graciously peppered in between, including the lakes, hiking trails, hidden small businesses, apple orchards, farm stands, blueberry fields and lobster roll shacks. Maine is a magical place to visit, and to especially, call Home. Mainers are fiercely independent, yet create such a strong community of neighbors supporting neighbors in time of need. I’m forever grateful to have resided here my entire life and look forward to sharing my love of Maine with you. Whatever level of property ownership you are seeking – dream home, commercial property, seasonal camp, coastal estate, investment property, business, or land – I will provide you with extraordinary service, be a reliable resource and offer unwaivering support. For those relocating or searching for a second home, I would be honored to assist you with your dream of residing in Maine longer than a brief vacation.

Corenna brings over 25 years of executive experience in the housing industry. She began her impressive career administering affordable housing programs and performing Housing Quality Inspections across five Maine counties. It was during this time her admiration of real estate bloomed, evolving her career to property management overseeing portfolios from Eastport to Alfred. Most notably, Corenna managed the Historic Bangor House, where she earned her way to an executive-level regional management position with one of the largest REIT’s in the country. In this role, Corenna was responsible for managing an expansive $100 million-dollar portfolio across Maine, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island as well as leading a team of 50, successfully marketing and leasing for over 1,000 units, and oversight for a $7 million-dollar redevelopment project outside of Boston. Known for her high-quality standards, all properties in her portfolio were recognized and awarded by NAHMA as ‘Communities of Quality.’
A lifelong resident of the greater Bangor area, Corenna is deeply involved in her community, earning the reputation of being a reliable and an effective partner – with an extraordinary talent for event planning. In more recent years, she founded her own business, Corenna Consulting, a highly respected and successful event management and public relations firm, hosted the WVII 7/Fox 22 television series Maine Street with Corenna O’Brien with a focus on celebrating Maine small businesses, and served as Maine District (State) Director (second in leadership in D.C.) for a U.S. Congressman.
In her free time, Corenna has volunteered countless hours to fundraise for those in need and various other causes, and by serving on numerous committees and boards. She has been directly involved in several local organizations such as the Bangor Area Recovery Network, the Bangor Area YMCA Gala Committee, the Board of Visitors for Husson University, Wreaths Across America, Maine Veterans Project, Windy Warrior, the Eastern Maine Community College Foundation Board, Tuesday Forum, EMMC Champion the Cure Challenge, Habitat for Humanity of Greater Bangor, Muscular Dystrophy Association, United Way, and Music Heals. In 2016, she founded a scholarship fund at EMCC in memory of former Chief Donald J. Winslow for criminal justice and fire science students. In 2024, she founded an endowed scholarship at Husson University for business and criminal justice students. She earned a baccalaureate degree in business administration from Husson University.
Corenna resides in Bangor with her loves, David Quirk, and their adorable Labradoodle, Mason. Both business owners – Corenna and David are cut from the same cloth – they deeply enjoy working hard and providing exceptional service for their customers and clients. For downtime, they look forward to spending quality time with their handsome boys and watching the magnificent sunrises over Cadillac Mountain at their oceanfront Deer Isle cottage.

by the ocean. She is an incredibly quick and clear communicator in all transactions.
She is a lovely person and never hesitated to go the extra mile. I might need to do another real estate transaction in the future, and I will be asking for her help. No need to go bezerk finding your home, Coreena is the best.
