When you choose Team Quist, you’re choosing more than a real estate agent. You’re choosing a team built on decades of experience, strong family values, local knowledge, and a genuine commitment to helping our clients succeed.

For more than two decades, Team Quist has been serving Northern Michigan families through all stages of the real estate journey. With 54 years of combined real estate experience, our team brings together seasoned knowledge, fresh ideas, innovative technology, and a personal approach to every transaction.

Team Quist is truly a family business.

Marianne Quist began her real estate career in 1998 and opened a RE/MAX office in Cadillac in 2001. Her husband, Daryl, joined her in real estate in 2009, and their children, Tara Ridenour and Travis Quist, have continued the family tradition.

Today, our family works alongside a dedicated team of real estate professionals, creating an environment where experience, collaboration, and relationships matter.

We believe that the same values that make a strong family—trust, dedication, respect, and looking out for one another—also make a strong real estate team.

Experience matters when you're making one of life's biggest financial decisions.

Our team's combined experience means we're able to draw on decades of knowledge and real-world experience to help our clients navigate everything from pricing and marketing to negotiations, inspections, contracts, and closing.

But experience isn't about simply knowing how things have always been done. It's about knowing how to apply that experience to today's ever-changing real estate market.

You benefit from the experience of the entire team—not just one individual agent.

Northern Michigan isn't just where we work. It's home.

Our team has deep roots in the communities we serve, including Wexford, Missaukee, and Osceola counties and surrounding areas.

From growing up in McBain to raising families and building businesses throughout the area, we understand the communities, neighborhoods, properties, and lifestyle that make Northern Michigan special.

Whether you're moving across town, relocating to the area, buying recreational property, or selling a home you've owned for generations, our local knowledge helps us provide insight that goes beyond the listing information.

One of the advantages of working with Team Quist is having a team behind you.

Our family brings different backgrounds and strengths to the table.

Marianne brings more than two decades of experience as a real estate broker, along with professional designations including CRS, ABR, and CDPE.

Daryl combines his real estate expertise with a background in construction and a builder's license, giving him a valuable understanding of a property's structure, potential, and value.

Tara brings a lifelong connection to real estate, along with a focus on modern marketing strategies, technology, and creating a smooth experience for today's buyers and sellers.

Travis combines the knowledge passed down through the family business with an innovative approach to technology, strategic marketing, and building lasting client relationships.

Together, those different perspectives allow us to approach each transaction from more than one angle.

Real estate continues to change—and so do we.

Our team stays current with today's technology, marketing strategies, and tools so that our clients benefit from both proven experience and modern solutions.

From strategic property marketing to today's digital tools, we continually look for better ways to connect buyers and sellers with opportunities.

We believe the best approach is simple:

Use the experience of the past while embracing the opportunities of the future.

Buying or selling a property isn't just a transaction. It's often connected to a major chapter in your life.

A first home.
A growing family.
A move to a new community.
A new business opportunity.
A retirement property.
A piece of Northern Michigan you've always dreamed of owning.

We understand that every client and every situation is different.

That's why we take the time to listen, communicate, answer questions, and guide you through the process from beginning to end.

Our goal isn't simply to help you complete a transaction.

Our goal is to become the real estate professionals you can trust for this transaction—and the next one.
