About Nancy Chu

Nancy is a Team Leader for NANCY CHU HOMES at Keller Williams NJ Metro Group, and has been a real estate professional since 2005. A top producer in Northern NJ, she is skillful in a wide range of deals - from 1-bedroom condos to luxury homes to investment properties. While based in Essex County, she is intrepid by nature and has developed regionally-based business by selling in Essex Bergen, Union, Morris, Passaic Counties beyond...in Hudson, Hunterdon and Somerset, too. "My primary goal is to explore the towns of Northern NJ, and to hone my expertise in all these areas. I think that real estate, like the rest of the world, is becoming a more global business, and so I feel that I must expand my approach both my in world-view and my areas of business. My job is often to listen to clients tell me their needs, and because I have a wide knowledge base of the area, I have a better chance to helping them find the neighborhood they want to be in faster. There is nothing more satisfying than putting a family in the perfect home." Nancy, who is fluent in Mandarin Chinese, cultivated a love for real estate when she helped her parents find the perfect home in Tennessee at age 16, and has not been able to stop following the real estate market since, owning a number of co-ops and condos in the New York City, her present home in Livingston, and recently building a home in upstate New York. Prior to real estate, Nancy spent 7 years in the Department of Ophthalmology at New York University School of Medicine. In addition, as a stage director by trade, her work has been seen at The Public Theatre, Long Wharf Theatre, The Lucille Lortel Foundation, Columbia University, Williamstown Theatre Festival, Second Stage Theatre and The Culture Project, to name a few. She is a member of several prestigious institutions, such as The Women's Project & Productions and the Lincoln Center Theatre Directors Lab. She continues to direct occasionally what little spare time she has left, as well as hanging out with her lovely husband, Raf Ricci, also a Realtor, and fabulous 10 year-old son, Declan. Nancy is an Owner at Keller Williams NJ Metro Group and top producer for KW, sits on the Agent Leadership Council and is a Member of the Board of Directors at the West Essex Board of Realtors. She knows that her own fascination with real estate and her strong professional background will translate in helping you to find the home of your dreams

There are so many good things to say about our experiences of buying and selling a home with Nancy Chu that I'm not sure which one to start with. We first met Nancy through a recommendation of a friend, which says a lot. We bought our home with her about 5 years ago. She artfully negotiated the purchasing price down, owing to extensive repair work needed. Five years and a different housing market altogether, Nancy very strategically set the asking price of our house, when we put it on the market, to encourage market engagement, and boy did we get it! Leading up to the open house, we needed a little bit of staging, so she and her team completely arranged it. She had multiple team members supporting the open house to ensure all prospective buyers questions would be answered. After the open house, Nancy helped get the best offer for us. We had numerous offers, quite a few that were all cash. While this has a lot to do with the house, location, and market, it was clear that Nancy knew how to price the house to generate this interest, and that she had the experience to advocate for our interests and successfully negotiate with the various buyers. She even made sure we had a backup offer just in case. Her team ensured a smooth closing by arranging the CoO with the town AND found a home for a piano. Nancy has tons of experience, is savvy, smart, and is an incredibly capable and competent agent. Her team is staffed with knowledgable, hard working professionals who have high standards. I'm so glad we worked with Nancy because selling our house with her was flawless.

Vishal is the best! I highly recommend working with him. He was our agent when we purchased our home. His local knowledge is exceptional as he helped us navigate Montclair's (often confusing) market. He is incredibly responsive and helped us find a home we love within just 1 month, as we were working on a tight moving schedule. He also has a lot of contacts in the local area for any renovations or work that might need to be done. Highly recommended!

We have now worked with Vishal on 4 different transactions - the purchase of my husbands and my first home in 2022, finding a rental property for my parents in 2022, selling my parents home in 2023, and purchasing their condo also in 2023. Ive leaned throughout this process that it is VERY important to have a realtor who is experienced, available, and who takes his role seriously. That is Vishal, without a doubt. He is ALWAYS accessible whenever we had questions or doubts. He did whatever was necessary to get our questions answered, sometimes even on his days off. He has some experience in construction, so was able to provide helpful insights on what repairs might be needed on a house and how much those repairs might cost. He also has a lot of years of experience working in real estate, so has a good list of referrals for lawyers, inspectors, handymen, etc, etc, should you need them. He also listened to what our priorities were and made sure they were his priorities when searching for a buyer when we were selling our parents home and when searching for our next homes. We could not have asked for more in a realtor.

We had a great experience working with Vishal. He is very knowledgeable, very helpful, and very responsive. He negotiated a great deal for us when purchasing our condo, and stuck right by our side through the whole process.
