My goal as a Realtor is to demystify the buying and selling of real estate making it easy and enjoyable along the way. Years of experience and market knowledge make a difference. And the side benefits are the friends made along the way and helping them again and again.
“Mary Ann is a broker’s broker. People in the business are quick to hire and refer her. She is a great listener and works hard to understand clients’ needs before making recommendations. A strategist by nature, she’s always seeking a good approach to accomplish objectives.”
I grew up in Bismarck, North Dakota, graduated from Iowa State University, and moved to beautiful Colorado in 1988. I started working in the mortgage industry, but quickly realized that I wanted to be on the other side of the real estate transaction. Building relationships and guiding clients through the biggest transactions of their lives is very rewarding.
My husband, Peter Stackhouse, and I have been married for 40 years. Our children Max & Tess attended Fort Collins’ Public Schools and graduated from Fort Collins and Poudre High. Schools in Northern Colorado are the backbone of our communities and part of the reason why we so many declare Northern Colorado as “The best place to live.”
You can have confidence in my ability, diligence and work ethic! My Buyers & Sellers benefit from my expertise to make sound real estate decisions. I am here for you, every step of the way in this complex real estate market.
Let me help you find your next home..

Mary Ann and her colleague Katie were a welcoming, supportive and highly professional team, and helped us through a complex process at a time of sudden market changes. We would recommend Mary Ann to friends without any hesitation.
She’s amazing- helpful from start to finish and is 100 on your side!
Mary Ann is very easy to work with. She was willing to work within our time frame, assisted with all things needed to get the best price for the home- couldn't be happier!
Mary Ann and her team are phenomenal! They sold our home in 4 days for over asking price! Ahead of the sale Mary Ann and Katie walked through our home and made suggestions on how it would show best - paint a room, take down curtains, etc. They staged our home, held a weekend of open houses, and then helped us understand the offers. Katie was incredibly communicative through all the open houses, letting us know of any interest, questions, or comments people had. After the contract, Mary Ann and Katie helped us get information to the buyers and work through some unusual requests. We had also worked with Mary Ann in the past on a complicated purchase. She is so very knowledgeable and willing to give her time. We would give Mary Ann and the Michaels-Mansouri Team 10 stars if we could!
Mary Ann did an amazing job of guiding us through the process of selling our home. From staging to the open house to considering offers to the closing we felt very well informed and in very good hands. Selling this home was the final step in a very long process to find land and build our dream home and Mary Ann was with us through the entire exciting and sometimes crazy journey. She did a fantastic job all the way through and we wouldn't be where we are without her.
It was a pleasure working with MaryAnn to find an ideal home for my family. She understood what we were looking for, forwarded listings and facilitated showings via her associates even when she was out of town. MaryAnn was always available to answer our questions and has a wealth of knowledge in the real estate domain. There were quite a few instances where she made us aware of certain specific property features (location/future development nearby and other potential issues) that we had overlooked ourselves, but she knew were significant factors/concerns in our search for a home. Furthermore, after every milestone in this process and at the right times, MaryAnn sent us a checklist of critical items and their timelines to be completed. In retrospect, those timeline lists were highly useful. We felt MaryAnn and her team (Anoushir and Katie) went above and beyond in helping us make an offer for the right home. Last but not the least, she was more diligent than our mortgage lender in identifying the precise information for the closing day and that made the process rather streamlined and stress-free. For these starkly highlighted reasons, we feel MaryAnn and team went significantly above and beyond in their service. We will be happy to refer MaryAnn to our friends and will reach out for our own future real estate needs! Thank you Mary Ann! Best regards, Govind and Roshni
Great attention to our particulars, very capable.
Mary Ann is an experienced professional with a heart for helping her clients find the right house. She is the best!
Mary Ann went above and beyond in every aspect of the sale of our property. The pre-marketing effort, continuous follow-up during the showing phase, and strong negotiation skills resulted in us receiving over asking after only 20 days on the market. This is the third transaction Mary Ann has handled for us. We highly recommend her.
Thank you Mary Ann and Anoushir for the expert guidance in marketing and selling my home. It took just 8 weeks , I think, from initial meet to closing. At least 20 showings and a successful offer in 5 days was remarkable feat given the changing market and time of year. I hope you are able to enjoy the holidays .
