About Marimar McNaughton

As an award-winning journalist and magazine editor, I’ve built a career on chasing facts, nailing details, and meeting tight deadlines. Now I bring that same precision and drive to real estate with Patterson-Schwartz. You want someone like me leading your home search and closing your deal—because timing, accuracy, and follow-through matter.

Before we get to work, here’s a little more about me and why I’m proud to call Delaware home.

Q: What’s it like growing up in the First State?
A: That’s easy—everything is The Best. We grow The Best Peaches! We boast The Best Beaches!

Q: What’s your favorite state symbol?
A: The Fighting Blue Hen. Sure, it’s extinct—but as a Delawarean born and reared (and UD bred), I feel connected to it. This bird thing also includes the Smyrna Eagle, mascot of my hometown high school.

Q: Favorite backroad?
A: Route 9 north of Kitts Hummock heading through Little Creek toward Leipsic in September. Mimosa trees rarely thrive this far north. Fringed with fields of tasseling feed corn, the landscape is so ripe I sometimes lose track of where I am—even though this is “home.”

Q: Spare time?
A: What spare time? I volunteer with the Friends of Belmont Hall in Smyrna to preserve the historic grounds and home, now 250 years old. I also serve on a Dover Century Club committee that supports the Dover Air Force Base Fisher House for Families of the Fallen.

Now that you’ve got a glimpse into who I am, I’d love to learn more about you. Let’s connect so I can understand your real estate needs and put my skills to work for you. Your future starts now—and I’m here to help you make it happen.
