2025 was a whirlwind for our family. During recovery from surgery we asked our dear friend and realtor Laura Coutts to come by and help us decide on a next project for our 73 year old expanded ranch in Mendham Borough. Following a thorough tour and fun conversation, Laura suggested some updates and mentioned maybe feeling the market to sell as our children were grown and gone. Laura introduced the 3 point sales system that Compass utilized and it sounded like a reasonable way to dip our foot in the waters of selling. She asked our "make me move" price and we were off to the races. Laura suggested a painter and flooring contractor who were both outstanding and reasonably priced. Next thing we knew, we showed our home to a lovely young couple prior to fully coming to market. Knowing our goals and with Laura serving as dual agents, we were presented with an amazing offer which provided above asking price as well as the 3 months we needed to move out of our home of 21 years. We cannot recommend Laura enough for her diligence, patience, and in depth knowledge of Mendham and the surrounding markets. The process was simple and all parties were happy with the outcome. read more

We had the pleasure of working with Laura Coutts on both the sale of our lake house in Sussex County, NJ, and the purchase of our new home in Denville, NJ.

As sellers, we valued her multi-faceted marketing strategy, which resulted in a quick and stress-free sale of our home.
