Maribeth McCauley Lynch, Realtor serving Grafton Massachusetts

A distinguished leader in the Central Massachusetts and MetroWest real estate markets, Maribeth Lynch has seamlessly blended more than three decades of industry expertise with a deep-rooted passion for client service.

As the visionary behind Thrive Real Estate Specialists, which she founded in 2014, Maribeth is committed to transcending the norms of real estate service. Her approach, refined during a 12-year tenure with a leading national brokerage, is characterized by a fervent dedication to her clients, many of whom have become lifetime friends.

Maribeth’s local insight stems from her active community involvement. Since buying her first home in Shrewsbury in 1990, she has participated in everything from the schools and sports teams to the arts and local government. When organizations need support, they know they can count on Maribeth and her team at Thrive to lend the gifts of time and resources.

This commitment to community is born from a desire to leave the town an even better place than the one she decided to call home, so future generations will continue to thrive here. To that end, Maribeth currently serves as Chairman of the Zoning Board of Appeals. Additionally, she is a founding member of the Shrewsbury Town Center Association—which, among other things, lights the Town Common each holiday season—and remains an active Board member.

Maribeth has been described as tenacious, confident and determined. She draws upon these attributes to contribute to her community, the real estate industry, and her family and friends. Her core desire is to serve without fanfare or recognition, yet her work has not gone unnoticed. In 2022, her contributions earned her the prestigious Commonwealth Heroes Award, bestowed by the Massachusetts Commission on the Status of Women. She also received the Massachusetts Association of Realtors Gratitude Award, which celebrates unsung heroes within the Realtor community.

Away from the professional realm, Maribeth finds joy in travel, reading, and home décor projects, as well as the pursuit of self-improvement and spirituality. She enjoys an active lifestyle with her large family: her husband Rick, their blended family of five children, and a beautiful granddaughter. Watching the beauty of a sunrise or a sunset at her beach house in Long Beach Island, New Jersey, is her ultimate pleasure, especially when shared with family. A close second is cheering loudly for her favorite sports teams, which include the local Holy Cross Crusaders and her hometown football team, the Philadelphia Eagles.
