ZillowVERIFIEDWe've worked with Janine for buying 2 homes and selling 1, and we would absolutely work with her again in the future! Through a variety of difficulties, Janine has always been extremely helpful and has made the buying/selling processes as smooth as possible. We've relied on her advice and honest assessments, and she has never steered us wrong! She is also great at presenting a variety of options to find a home that best works for you. Most recently she helped us navigate a difficult situation where we and my parents were both looking to move at the same time, close to each other, but with very different needs, including the budget. Thanks to all her help we've all ended up in homes we love at prices we're happy with!

ZillowVERIFIED We met Janine at an open house she was hosting. While we were not really in true house-hunting mode, we liked keeping up on opportunities. Janine is very friendly, but more importantly, she impressed us with her honesty about the pluses/minuses of the property we were visiting, much different than with other realtors with whom we've dealt. She followed up with some other suggested properties that seemed consistent with our preferences and the more we worked with her, the better she understood what might get us to commit to a new house, and she invited us to view a condo that she thought would attract but was not yet listed. Boy, she got it right! We ended up making an offer before the property hit the MLS, and Janine helped greatly with the negotiations by giving us useful market data, ultimately resulting in success. We then turned to selling the condo in which we lived for the past 10 years, and again Janine's market knowledge helped us set an aggressive but fair asking price, which attracted multiple offers resulting in a sale above the ask. In both the purchase and sale processes, Janine handled coordination with attorney, realtors and other resources with true professionalism. We can highly recommend Janine to anyone looking for a seasoned, trustworthy, professional realtor.

ZillowVERIFIED Janine was our real estate agent and help me sell my house and buy a new one this year! She is so knowledgeable and helped make this challenging process much easier. Janine listened to our needs and went above and beyond to help us find a place we love and would not rest until our place was SOLD! I feel lucky to have worked with her!

ZillowVERIFIED This was our first experience buying a home. Janine was responsive, a good listener, and had ridiculously good knowledge of the market. She also has patience and worked with our schedule. When the time came to make an offer, she guided us through the process with care and efficiency. From toting us around every neighborhood in Jersey City in her Subaru to sitting at the closing table, eating those amazing pastries she brought and buying us our celebratory bottle of champagne, Janine was the best and I have already recommended her to everyone I know.

ZillowVERIFIED I saw Janine's outstanding reviews as a buyer's/seller's agent and wanted to add that she is an outstanding property manager as well. Her clients include long-distance owners who depend on her year after year to ensure that their properties remain fully rented to strong tenants. Janine responds quickly to inquiries and has deep knowledge of the properties and the surrounding area.

ZillowVERIFIED My husband and I worked with Janine Berger-Gillet this summer to buy our first home. Janine was a reference from a friend who just sold her condo downtown and was absolutely instrumental in helping us have the smoothest experience possible. She was an excellent advocate for us, a knowledgeable guide to various neighborhoods, and a cheerleader when we were feeling anxious about such a big purchase. After living downtown for 11 years, my husband and I decided to make the move to the Heights. We were able to spend two intensive days with Janine where she took us to many open houses, orchestrated showings, pointed out great places to eat, and made us feel so comfortable with her. We are really lucky to have had her in our corner. We found a beautiful home and felt guided through the process. Whenever we had a question, Janine was so patient and making sure we felt confident in our understandings before making any decisions. We are thrilled to have worked with her and are grateful to call her our neighbor!

ZillowVERIFIED I highly recommend Janine - she is a pro!! We are very pleased with her service and the help she provided throughout our purchase journey, and afterwards. We found her insights and advise about Jersey City very helpful in making our decision, since we are new to Jersey City. Janine provides concierge service - the best.

ZillowVERIFIED It's my great pleasure to recommend Janine Berger, who I got to know as my agent when I purchased my first home in Jersey City. Janine is motivated by a strong commitment to truly understand her clients needs, to help new buyers like me quickly gain knowledge of the housing markets, and gives great suggestions that are in the clients best interest. What makes Janine stand out is that she not only has years of experience in the housing market in the Jersey area, but also has genuine care for her clients. Janine possesses excellent communication skills, and has the magic to make things work out. You will not regret working with Janine.

Her advice on pricing, staging, and negotiating was spot on, and Janine is both proactive and responsive. The photos and marketing materials she provided were high quality. And, Janine is a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend Janine Berger. aEUR"Colleen and Tom

ZillowVERIFIED 6 days. Thats how fast we found our forever home and won the bidding process with our realtor Janine Berger. Janines experience, professionalism, and quick actions allowed us to secure our home and close on the date of our choosing. Her recommendations and professional connections for obtaining a house inspection, a mortgage, and identifying a real estate attorney were exceptional. Working with Janine provided a smooth process where we never felt unaware of the next step required. She was in constant contact to facilitate the closing. We are happy to recommend Janine as your realtor.

ZillowVERIFIED My wife and I really l lucked out with Janine. We were looking for properties in Jersey City and it was through Zillow that we found Janine. I could not possibly recommend her enough. From our first communication all the way through closing and even until today post-purchase, Janine has been so responsive, professional and so patient. Her knowledge of the area, her knowledge of all the steps around a purchase, her honest feedback and advice, her ability to understand your needs, are really second to none. Janine managed to find us a home that met all of our criteria in a really short time. I really do believe she cares about finding the right home for you and that she really wants to make sure youre not just settling. Theres no doubt in my mind well be going back to her in the future and I have already recommended friends to contact her if they are looking for places around the area. If you want a great agent experience in finding your future home, Janine is the one to go to.

ZillowVERIFIED CANNOT RECOMMEND JANINE ENOUGH!!! My parents and I were on the hunt for the perfect Hoboken/Weehawken apartment for the longest time. Janine is so incredibly knowledgable of these areas as well Jersey City. She showed us all sorts of condos in and around our price range to help us find the perfect fit. She's incredibly responsive and has no problem working around the buyer's schedules to show places. My father often works late, and she happily met up with us in the evening or on weekend. And on top of everything, she's incredibly kind and truly cares about finding her clients the right place for them. She is THE BEST!

Every time we viewed a property, she would ask relevant questions and debrief us about the things to look for.The whole journey was impeccable.We felt like we were working with a friend rather than an agent.She is a wonderful person and has such a positive energy. Thank you again,Janine ! If you are looking for a stress free home buying process and a person who understand your needs, then she is the one.

ZillowVERIFIED As first time home buyers, my boyfriend and I could not have lucked out more by having Janine as our realtor. Janine truly loves her job and connecting with her community, which was evident in every step of the home buying process. Janine was so patient yet diligent in making sure we found our perfect property that met all our needs. She really goes above and beyond to make sure her buyers are informed. We were able to put our trust in Janine which made us feel so comfortable and prepared despite being first time buyers in a fast changing real estate climate. We cannot thank Janine enough for all of her hard work and care!

ZillowVERIFIED Janine is easily a 5 star realtor! She was patient, thorough, and a pleasure to work with during our home search. She is a homeowner herself and has a ton of helpful knowledge on both the jersey city / hoboken / weehawken area as well as the basics of homeownership. As someone with a ton of friends who will be looking to buy in the next few years, I will 100% be recommending them all to Janine.

ZillowVERIFIED Janine helped me buy a Condo as a rental property and is in the process of helping me rent it out in Jersey City. Her knowledge of the comparative price in the neighborhood is excellent both in terms of buying and renting. She was always available and super helpful. I could not recommend enough. She was always honest even if it was against her best interest, she has my best interest in mind.

ZillowVERIFIED Janine was lovely to work with! Her knowledge of the Hudson County area was extremely impressive and meant that she was able to show us a wide range of properties that fit what we were looking for, and then helped us zero in on the perfect one! Throughout the whole process and even after move-in, Janine's knowledge and expertise were a huge help. We got sound advice, excellent recommendations, and a sounding board to help ease all the stresses of homebuying!

ZillowVERIFIED Janine has given a service that fulfilled everything we wanted, expected and dreamed of. First off, Janine knows her business and is definitely passionate about her clients happiness and success! You dont even feel youre engaged in a client-realtor relationship but rather as if your older sister was walking you through every single detail with great accuracy, knowledge and promptness! We could have never dreamed of someone like Janine and we were sad that our purchasing process was reaching to an end because itd mean we would spend less time talking with Janine. Buying a house is a tricky process where any mistake can ruin your dreams. Avoid the mistake of not doing business with Janine! Just to give you an idea: we were buying while my wife lived in the US and I in Canada. Janine went out of her way and so many steps beyond to organize multimodal seeings, ensure that cross border regulations would be taken into account from all parties at stake and was of great emotional support when legal things become more stressful. PICK JANINE BERGER TO BE YOUR REALTOR!

ZillowVERIFIED Janine is not one ordinary realtor but a superb one. She truly devotes her sincerity, generosity, and honesty to your house hunt. In this seemingly ceaseless search, her personality is a stress reliever, her integrity provides a shining path, her expertise keeps you level-headed. Not only has Janine successfully helped me to find a suitable condo, but she also has earned a friend and a returning customer.

ZillowVERIFIED Janine is an amazing real estate professional. Her responsiveness, honesty and transparency are second to none. We were first time home buyers, so we didn't know what to expect. Janine walked us through EVERY step of the process, including many things she wasn't obligated to. She is now our friend and neighbor and we give her the highest recommendation possible!!!
