About
Mara Bushari is a creative thinker and strategic marketer who has been instrumental in building one of Massachusetts' most successful real estate teams. She graduated Summa Cum Laude from Boston University's College of Communication and co-founded Bushari Real Estate in 2008. Over the next decade, Mara helped grow the company to 45 agents and employees, participating in more than $1 billion in transaction volume. In 2017, Bushari Real Estate was recognized as the fastest-growing private real estate company in Massachusetts by Inc. 5000. As Executive Vice President of The Bushari Team at Compass, Mara is a key facilitator in all team transactions, making the buying or selling process as stress-free as possible for clients. Her extraordinary organizational and problem-solving skills were developed during her service in the Israeli Defense Forces, where she learned to achieve top results in high-pressure, time-sensitive situations. These skills translate directly to real estate, where market conditions change rapidly and quick, strategic decisions make the difference between winning and losing. Mara strives to exceed expectations in every transaction. Her background in communications and marketing gives clients an edge when positioning properties for sale, while her attention to detail ensures nothing falls through the cracks during the buying process. As a Brookline resident with children in Brookline Public Schools, Mara brings genuine local knowledge and a personal stake in the community she serves.
