My wife and I interviewed many real estate agents in search of the proper match for us…read more I'm glad I trusted my gut and went with Susan. First time buyers. We relocated to Ocean county and needed someone who would help us navigate a new unfamiliar area. Our search was focused on the beach towns in southern Monmouth and northern Ocean Counties. Based out of Spring Lake, this area is Susan's bread and butter. We narrowed the search down to the towns between Avon by the Sea and Bay Head, and Susan was able to give the ins and out of every nook between the two. When we found the right house, we thought it could potentially be a multiple offer situation. We rested easy knowing our offer was backed with Susan's reputation-"Her deals get done", the value of this can not be understated. Once we were under contract and throughout the entire process, Susan lended expert advice, and knew the right people to get the job done. Example... In most of these towns your going to need flood insurance. We had a complex situation because the home had no current flood policy, no existing elevation certificate, and fema maps were scheduled to change zones prior to closing. I got multiple quotes from different brokers but the agent Susan recommended ended up saving me nearly 70% on my flood policy, and did what the other insurance agents didn't even know was possible. He was able to get me locked into a transferable policy that grandfathered me into the existing flood zone, before I even closed on the house. This maneuver was based on Susan's recommendation and will keep my rates low for years to come. Susan stays on top of everyone on both sides of the transaction during the entire process and will ensure everything is completed in a timely fashion. Push never comes to shove, because Susan always nudged at the proper time. Susan will help you cross the finish line, she will not rest until the keys are in your hand. Quite literally. On Closing day, she ran through a rain storm & got soaking wet, without hesitation to retrieve the house keys from the sellers attorney who inadvertently took them with him, after the transaction was complete. Before I could finish my thought, "So when do we get the keys..." Susan had already bolted for the door, once again Susan saved the day. I highly recommend Susan for any real estate transaction.

Second, she hired a professional photographer to take photos of the house which made it stand out on those real estate sites. We talked about the price of the house and what we thought was fair- considering both the house and the current market.

Overall I would work with Peggy again, she was kind, knowledgable and acted like a real person and that's always nice.

Buying a house - it's one of the biggest financial moves in most people's lives, and also one of…read morethe biggest PITA's. Lawyers, township red tape, lenders, inspectors, etc.. the list goes on and on, and most of them (especially the banks) seem hell bent on making life as miserable as possible throughout the ordeal. Under the recommendation from a coworker, I came here after our previous agent failed to find us anything decent. Thankfully, Carol came through with shining colors. Now, I'm not TOO picky of a guy, but I knew what we wanted in a house, and how much we wanted to spend. Most importantly, I didn't want any salesman BS about how "with only a little bit of work, you can knock down these six walls, build a new kitchen, finish the basement, and do a small addition to the bedroom", or that buying a craphole of a house was a "great investment". In the wake of Hurricane Sandy & the housing bubble, a lot of people were trying to sell their beaten-up / tiny / unkempt houses for *way* more than they were worth, and Carol was there - day after day, putting up with us and my (often crass) sense of humor while we hunted for a place where the sellers weren't nuts. Looking at houses felt like hanging out with a friend, not being pressured into buying by a pushy salesperson. If I had to do it all over again, I'd most certainly come back here. I'm pretty sure if it weren't for Carol, I'd probably have given up looking at houses entirely, and ended up in some tiny apartment for the next 10 years.
