I would recommend her to others and have her represent us again. Marissa listed our home in the fall of 2023, a tough time to sell. However in January we got an offer and sold. She went out of her way to help us get the home ready for the new owners. I would recommend her to others and have her represent us again.

Marissa knew the market Marissa worked with my husband and myself for over two years. In that time, we purchased a home, sold a home and purchased another home. In this very competitive and emotional market, Marissa knew the market, was available to show us homes within our budget and provide objective and professional advice. We happily closed on a great home at the end of June. She also has a great sense of humor, which made this overwhelming process a lot of fun. Highly recommend

About Marissa
Marissa Stapleton is more than a real estate broker—she’s a trusted advisor for those seeking an elevated lifestyle along Indiana’s most exclusive lakefront properties. Licensed in Chicago in 2008, Marissa brings a global perspective shaped by living in 18 cities internationally during her husband’s professional hockey career. This experience gives her a rare understanding of the art of relocation and the nuances of luxury living.
After settling in Long Beach, Marissa became the first team member of the Lake Michigan Group, where her career quickly soared. Today, she is recognized for her ability to deliver seamless, sophisticated transactions for discerning clients. Her 16 years of expertise, combined with an unwavering commitment to excellence, have earned her prestigious honors such as the Coldwell Banker International President’s Circle and the International Diamond Society Award.
Marissa’s approach goes far beyond the sale—she curates every detail to ensure homes reflect the lifestyle her clients deserve. From organizing and staging to coordinating trusted contractors, she transforms properties into extraordinary spaces. Her passion for design inspired the creation of LMG INTERIOR, a boutique in Michigan City’s Uptown Arts District that offers curated pieces and local artistry to complement luxury homes. For Marissa, real estate is not just about finding a property—it’s about crafting a life of beauty, comfort, and connection.
