Meet the "Bailey Bunch"
	Mary Lou is originally from Minnesota, attended Marquette University in Milwaukee, then moved to Chicago where she began to raise a family in suburban Winnetka. Even then, she was extremely active in community service activities. In 1973, the lure of the Islands first attracted Mary Lou and her family. By 1978, Sanibel was home! Within a year, she received her real estate license and applied her energy and enthusiasm to helping Buyers and Sellers meet their objectives. She joined Priscilla Murphy Realty in 1983 as a Broker Associate and enjoyed 22 years of a successful career providing clients with the most reliable, attentive and professional service possible.
From 2005 until mid 2009 Mary Lou worked at other Island real estate offices. In 2009 an opportunity to join VIP Realty Group was presented and Mary Lou determined that VIP's reputation for excellence and its' powerful marketing position was an upward career opportunity and she enthusiastically joined VIP Realty Group.

When she's not busy in the real estate business, Mary Lou Bailey describes her life on Sanibel as the fulfillment of a dream...to live and raise her children on these enchanted Islands.
