Independent Medicare Insurance Agent Durham, NC

Marlene Slieter

Principal/Licensed Sales Agent

I am a North Carolina licensed Life, Health and Medicare Insurance agent (also licensed in SC and FL) and I am also a North Carolina licensed REALTOR®. My goal is to help people during what could be one of the most important decisions they could make, and to make the process easy and understandable so they feel comfortable in this decision. I firmly believe that knowledge is power and that everyone needs an advocate.

The two careers may seem different from one another yet they work quite well together as they are client-centric, which means you are the core of my focus and my goal is to provide you a positive experience. Each license means that you have a proficient, experienced and compassionate agent who is attentive to your needs.

I’ve been in North Carolina for almost 35 years. I’m a Midwesterner who moved here via California. Aside from my work (I don’t think I’ll ever retire – “if you do what you love, you’ll never work a day”, right?), I enjoy spending time with my family (grandkids are the best, aren’t they?), studying holistic nutrition and healthy living. After usual business hours, I’m probably in the yoga studio or hiking somewhere on one of the beautiful trails that North Carolina offers. Oh, and the beach.

Can’t get enough of that salty air and have my feet grounded in the sand. Ah, North Carolina. You’re a wonderful place to call home! Thank you so much for being here – and I look forward to hearing from you and helping you. You are why I am here. My success comes from your satisfaction!
