Penny Dey Broker/Owner, GRI, ABRM

Penny has worked in real estate on Nantucket for nearly 40 years, full-time and year-round.

Penny is currently serving her second term as President of the Nantucket Association of Real Estate Brokers and has also been a Director of the Cape Cod & Islands Association of Realtors.  Past activities include being vice-chair of the Nantucket Planning & Economic Development Commission, and on the boards of Sustainable Nantucket, the Finance Committee for the Town of Nantucket, Housing Nantucket, Nantucket Community Sailing and Habitat for Humanity. Penny is chair of the Nantucket Housing Authority (as the state representative appointed by the governor) and on the Town’s Affordable Housing Trust Fund.  In 2017 she was elected as a corporator of Cape Cod Five Bank.

Penny first came to Nantucket with her family in the summer of 1963 where her family spent half of each summer in the village of Quidnet.  Nantucket has been her home year-round since 1977;  when her summer job cooking at the Club Car was extended to Christmas that year and she never left.  Before working in real estate, as many people on Nantucket do, she had a variety of different jobs including scalloping in the winter months.  Penny has an interest in telling Nantucket stories through filmmaking.  She feels fortunate to call Nantucket home.
