Find the perfect Clifton real estate agent

Julie is a licensed real estate agent and is currently with Coldwell Banker RB in Upper Montclair.

I have over twenty years of experience in both commercial and residential real estate. As a full-time, full-service agent I focus on unbeatable performance in three areas: positioning properties to sell, negotiating the best deal, and coordinating the closing details. Today’s buyers are demanding homes that are much more than “move-in ready.” Creating that transformation takes knowing the updates and details that make the big impact and create an emotional connection with buyers. I have been incorporating home staging as part of my full-service approach long before it became a hot topic. My expertise has helped my clients to achieve better sale prices and shorter times on market. My success has been acknowledged by being selected to host a segment of NBC’s LXTV Open House NYC, offering staging tips. I also provide my clients the knowledge and support of an expert team of real estate, marketing, finance, legal and home improvement professionals. My husband, Geoffrey, is also a licensed real estate agent and provides professional marketing and photography support for every client we work with. I market homes to their best advantage, publicizing them on all the major real estate websites, and the two largest local MLS sites, for unmatched exposure to buyers and their agents. I focus on three local market areas: Glen Ridge/Montclair, West Essex (the Caldwells, Essex Fells, Roseland, Verona, and Cedar Grove), and Bloomfield/Nutley. I am very familiar with the entire northern New Jersey area, and have worked successfully with clients from Cape May to Bergen County. As a consistent top performer, my New Jersey Association of Realtors and local real estate office sales recognition include: New Jersey Association of Realtors NJAR Circle of Excellence 2016 – Silver NJAR Circle of Excellence 2015 – Silver NJAR Circle of Excellence 2014 – Silver NJAR Circle of Excellence 2013 – Silver NJAR Circle of Excellence 2012 – Silver NJAR Circle of Excellence 2011 – Silver NJAR Circle of Excellence 2009 – Bronze NJAR Circle of Excellence 2008 – Silver NJAR Circle of Excellence 2006 – Silver NJAR Circle of Excellence 2005 – Bronze Office Awards 2017 – Keller Williams Cap Status Achieved at 6 Months. 2015 – Top Selling Agent for Coldwell Banker, Caldwell NJ Office.
