Your Gulf Coast Go-Getter!

With 23 years of experience in the casino world and 11 years running my own business, Landscaping for You, LLC (BBB Accredited ), I know what it means to work hard and serve people with heart. Now, I’ve taken that same hustle and passion into real estate with Next Level Realty – Summer Newman Group!

I was honored to be nominated two years in a row as one of the Gulf Coast Women’s 100 Most Successful Women to Know—and that recognition fuels me to keep showing up, serving others, and leveling up!

Whether it’s buying, selling, or helping you boost that curb appeal, I’m here to guide you every step of the way—with hustle, heart, and real results.

This year, I’m also diving deeper into community outreach and giving back wherever I can. Let’s grow together—one connection at a time!

I am an unlicensed assistant for Next Level Realty, LLC. As an unlicensed real estate assistant, I provide essential support to our team of real estate professionals, helping ensure smooth operations and client satisfaction. My role includes managing administrative tasks, scheduling appointments, preparing marketing materials, conducting research, and assisting with client communications. While I do not hold a real estate license as of now, my focus is on offering efficient back-office support, ensuring the team has the tools and information they need to provide exceptional service to clients.

With a strong attention to detail and a passion for real estate, I thrive in a fast-paced environment and am dedicated to contributing to the success of our brokerage. Whether it's managing listings, preparing documents, or coordinating client interactions, my goal is to make the real estate process as seamless as possible for everyone involved.

Shawna Marin

With over 16 years in real estate and a deep passion for home remodeling, investing, and community service, I offer a hands-on, heart-led approach to helping clients buy, sell, and invest along the Mississippi Gulf Coast—especially in new construction and military relocation.

My journey began in 2007 when I flipped my first home, igniting my love for real estate. I earned my Louisiana license in 2008 during a challenging market, then expanded into Mississippi in 2010, where I received the Sandy Lash Scholarship for leadership potential.

Over the years, I’ve built a rental portfolio and launched multiple renovation businesses, earned designations including SFR, SRES, ABR, SRS, and GRI, participated in the Louisiana Real Estate Leadership Program, returned to home flipping and design from 2016–2019, launched Marin’s Home Remodeling & Tractor Service in 2024, and earned my Military Relocation Professional designation in 2025.

I’ve also completed Cartus and USAA Military Relocation training to support military and corporate moves with care and precision.

Community is at my core—I currently serve as PTA President at West Harrison Middle School and am actively pursuing my Broker’s License to continue growing and serving with excellence.

Donna Guthrie

Rooted in the heart of the Mississippi Gulf Coast, I’m more than just a Realtor—I’m your neighbor, your advocate, and your biggest cheerleader on the path to homeownership or investment success. With a genuine love for people and a drive to make every transaction feel personal and seamless, I bring a unique blend of business savvy, creativity, and local insight to the table.

Before entering the world of real estate, I built and ran two thriving flooring stores and a well-loved local restaurant. I’ve also spent years flipping homes, which sharpened my eye for hidden potential, smart investments, and homes with true heart and soul. This hands-on experience gives me a deep understanding of value, style, and what it really takes to make a house feel like home.

Whether you’re buying your very first home, upgrading your space, or looking for that perfect flip or rental opportunity, I’ll be right by your side—offering guidance, honest advice, and a whole lot of heart. Helping people achieve their real estate dreams isn’t just my job—it’s my passion, and I’m here to make your journey as exciting and rewarding as it should be.

Let’s turn your goals into keys and your dreams into doors that open to something amazing.
