Sara helped us sell our house recently and we're so thrilled we ended up using her. She is incredibly knowledgable, a great communicator, and just a lovely human. She and her team did an amazing job with our sale and the house sold in a weekend for more than we expected.

As a first-time homebuyer, I couldnt have asked for a better relator than Amy Paternite. From start to finish, Amy was an incredible resourceaEUR"walking me through every step of the process with knowledge, patience when answering all my questions, and professionalism. Her expertise was invaluable, from helping me find the right home to navigating the financial details, handling paperwork, coordinating the inspection, and ultimately, going into the closing with confidence. I highly recommend Amy and her team to anyone looking to purchase a home.

Amy Paternite was wonderful. She smoothly navigated us through the buying process. She knows Essex County like the back of her hand and her deep knowledge and insights were so helpful at every step.

We worked with Amy Paternite for over six months to find our home, and we truly cant imagine going through this process with anyone else, especially as first-time home buyers. We relocated from California to New Jersey for work and spent six months living with family while house-hunting. Amy showed up every single weekend and sometimes during the week -- we saw over 30 houses with her. She was patient, hardworking, and fully committed from day one. What really sets Amy apart is her experience, knowledge of the market, and incredible taste. She helped us think through each decision carefully and always made us feel informed and confident. Amy also brings an all-star team who were just as responsive and supportive as she was. We always felt like we had a full team in our corner. On top of all that, Amy is genuine and fun to be around, which made even the most stressful and overwhelming parts of the process feel manageable. After months of searching, she helped us find the home of our dreams, and were so grateful to have had her by our side. If youre looking for a smart, reliable, and an overall wonderful person to work with, Amy is it. Thank you Amy!!

Sara was not just great, but also fun to work with. She never hesitated to jump in the car and meet us at a property, or send us videos of a property if we were too far away. She is highly personable, truthful, and never felt pushy which is something we have felt with realtors in the past. She helped us navigate a very sticky situation and we felt supported 100% of the way. Sara is a great realtor and person overall, and we would absolutely recommend her for anyone's buying or selling needs. We look forward to working with her in the future!
