Re/Max Hall Of Fame
Philippa is a fantastic agent and we would recommend her to anyone looking for a home in northern and central NJ. She is honest, trustworthy, and professional. She had plenty of recommendations when we were selecting an attorney, home inspector, etc., and her expertise made the process that much easier for us as first-time buyers.
This market is crazy, and when my wife and I decided to sell our house and upgrade to a bigger house in the middle of this crazy pandemic market, it was absolutely nerve wracking. But we knew from a previous experience of buying our first house with Philippa that we were in good hands. (My previous review of her tells you what Philippa was able to navigate in our first experience.) This time around Philippa was able to sell our house and got us maximum value. That was the easy part. Buying in this market is the hard part. She was able to pull out every trick in the book and all of her negotiating skills to land us a house we are absolutely in love with and she was able to get it at a fair price. She did so well, that my parents decided to try and sell there house as well. This was a house that was falling apart and in desperate need of rehabilitation, but despite that, Philippa was able to sell that house as well. Philippa is a true professional and simply put she is good at what she does. She is tough and unwavering. If you want to sell your house or buy, or both, I would not hesitate to recommend Philippa for any and all of your real estate needs.
We sold our house in two days. Philippa provided clear and realistic guidance and it paid off. A well - written, thorough ad that promoted all the special features about our home + professional photographs led to high interest which was surprising given that it was the dead of winter. The resulting bidding war led to offers significantly above asking price. The process used to set viewing appointments and for realtors to gain access to our home was safe and convenient. We were amazed at how smoothly and quickly everything went which was important to us, as we were facing a complicated out-of-state move. We highly recommend Philippa for your real estate needs!
My husband and I were relocating from the Midwest to Central Jersey and needed to find a one-year rental for our family from afar. Philippa went above and beyond for us during the process. She visited numerous listings and each time FaceTimed with us so that we could get a better sense of the properties. She was responsive, answered all of our questions, and kept us calm through an incredibly stressful process given the craziness that is the current real estate market. Our experience with Philippa was exceptional, and we cannot recommend her enough!
When you find a professional, who goes above and beyond, and the person is kind, thorough, responsive, and everything GOOD that you can think of, that is Philippa. Five years ago, she sold our house in less than two months, and this year, she represented us in buying a town house and the whole process took just two months (finding a house to closing), so she gets the job done, to say the least. We wont use anybody else. Philippa is five-star all the way!!!
This is the second time in 3 years (purchased our first house in 2017, sold that house and upgraded in 2020) that we used Philippa for our real estate needs and I wouldnt think of using anyone else. No home sale or purchase is perfect and it rarely gets completed without issues. Both of our experiences with Philippa were not easy but she was able to navigate the problems that arose with care, expertise and resilience. Philippa simply gets the job done and I'm so glad we had her on our side rather than the other side!I would recommend her to anyone!
It was a pleasure to work with Philippa on the sale of our home. Philippa was very responsive to our concerns, particularly selling and showing a home during CoVid. We are grateful for Philippa's expert advice in getting the house ready to show and her knowledge of the market. We would highly recommend her.
Philippa is knowledgeable, friendly and very prompt in responding to yours emails or texts. She guided us throughout the process, by patiently answering our questions. Thank you for helping us out.
My wife & I just completed the process of buying a house with the guidance of Philippa Sells NJ Homes . Philippa has made the process stress free and she has been on top of every step of the process. Philippa's response time to our texts & emails were extremely quick. There was never any confusion, she kept us up to date on everything we needed to know. Her knowledge for all areas of real estate is off the charts , she knows exactly how to cater to what you are looking for. Philippa will FIGHT for you, she is a bulldog when she needs to be which we loved. Her communication & negotiation skills with the sellers agent was a thing of beauty. Philippa let us know exactly what to expect and she made sure everything is done correctly. Even after the closing, Philippa checked in on us to see how we were doing & to see if we needed anything. We knew we were in great hands right from the start! We HIGHLY RECOMMEND Philippa!!
Very professional and a nice person. She devoted time to understand our requirements and gave the listings that perfectly matched our likes. She also has a very good knowledge about real estate in the locations she usually works for.She was able to find us the dream home and made the whole house-hunting experience pleasant. I would definitely recommend Philippa to my friends and family.
My sale was a very lengthy, complicated sale as it was a restored carriage house, built before the 1900's. There were many processes involved that required much follow through and research. Philippa helped with much of it and stuck with me thru all of it. I wouldn't hesitate to use Philippa for any purchase or sale of your home. She's a good negotiator and stays on task!
Philippa Bebbington was extremely responsive from the very first start. I felt that I was in expert hands due to her expertise in all areas of real estate. Philippa did an incredible job in working with a photographer to show my home in the best light. I felt that Philippa was extremely adept at negotiating with the other agent. As small glitches can occur in a real estate process, Philippa stayed on top of things throughout, communicating with the other agent to bring things to completion. Philippa was also fantastic in communicating with the lawyer giving me the opportunity to have a good working relationship with the lawyer. I would highly recommend Philippa as your Real Estate Agent.
Philippa was very knowledgeable and helpful during the entire home selling process. She was always honest and professional. It was a pleasure working with her.
Me and my husband just moved from NC to NJ. Philippa was the first real estate professional I met with and she showed us the home we now rent. She was extremely responsive, kind and patient. I had to come twice to see the house and she was nothing but accommodating. She answered all of our questions promptly and went above and beyond with information about the area. I am so glad the owner chose her to find a renter (us) as we just clicked right away. Not only is she professional but also honest. If we ever leave the home we rent now I will absolutely be calling her.
I rarely feel compelled to say much in reviews, but I am pleased to share the following: My wife and I were referred to Philippa in March of 2017. We were told that she was very knowledgable, helpful, patient, and honest. We were looking for someone to guide us through the process, but not push us into an uncomfortable decision. We were NOT disappointed. We were first time prospective buyers at this point, with a massive amount of questions, and we were in the market for a unique home in Central New Jersey. We found Philippa to be an extremely accessible resource during our house hunting. My wife and I had all of our questions answered, and we appreciate Philippa sharing here experience in real estate with us. There is so much to consider when buying a home, and it helps to have someone who is willing to tell you to make sure YOU are happy with the home you buy. It was not a "Sale" so much as Philippa facilitated our being sure and in a position of confidence when we arrived at closing. If you want things done right, honestly and efficiently I would highly recommend Philippa Bebbington for any of your needs in real estate. We are currently making our new home our own, and this is thanks in a considerable part to Philippa and her expertise, as well as her professionalism.
Philippa went above and beyond in a very challenging circumstance with our seller. She remained professional and incredibly patient throughout the entire buying process. When we were ready to back out of the deal because of the frustration with the sellers, Philippa convinced us to stick with it and promised us results. She delivered, and we are so grateful she was by our side every step of the way. We are now in the house that we love because of Philippa's knowledge, patience and professional experience. Ask her to tell you about our nightmare! It'll make you feel better about your buying experience!
Philippa was great. She showed us exactly what we were looking for in our price range. We found the perfect home within 2 months of working with her and she was with us every step of the way until we moved in. We are first time homeowners and she made the process fun and enjoyable. Would recommend her to anyone looking for a home.
We are thrilled to be able to recommend Philippa Bebbington as an outstanding Realtor. We couldn't have asked for a better experience with her. From the very beginning Philippa was very knowledgeable, accessible and professional.We love to tell others about Philippa because we have full confidence that they will have a purely positive experience as well.
Philipa Bebbington was fantastic and very understanding with my special needs in handling a older family member during the sale. She sold my home after the first open house. The sale was quick and went smoothly. Philipa's experience guided me through the process successfully. She was recommended to me and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone.
Philippa was extremely responsive and helpful throughout the entire process. We appreciated her honesty and willingness to help out in any way she could.
Anybody looking for a real state agent to sell/buy house? Look no further. Because we have Philippa. She is the best of the best. She is professional, detail-oriented, polite yet persuasive, you name it, she got it. Philippa helped us buy our house 16 years ago, and she sold the house this summer in just two month (from initial consultation to closing). She made the process of selling house so easy, smooth and quick. Don't forget she has a great network. If you need anything, handy-man, licensed plumber, junk remover, any professionals you may need when selling house, you can just text her. She has a connection. What's more, her deep and wide knowledge on real estate is amazing, inspection guidelines to bank's regulations to negotiation with the other side agent. She know her job.

Then I realized, the professionalism, the courtesy, she give the same to everybody. My husband and I are so thankful to Philippa for everything she did and we want to share this experience with others, and that's why we recommend Philippa to everybody.

Philippa helped me find my first home in only a few weeks. She always made herself available to meet and answer all of my questions. She referred me to everything I needed - bank, insurance co., home inspector, etc. - all of whom helped make closing on my home very smooth. Highly recommend!
Philippa helped us to buy a house and rent out our old house as well(did thorough back ground check) . Patient and very knowledgeable and importantly she listens to you and doesn't push you.Always on time, she will be 5 mins before!!!
Working with Philippa was a wonderful experience, especially since I'm a first home owner. She was patient, insightful and a true advocate for me. I couldn't have asked for more.
I felt like I was in good hands at all times. Philippa knew what to ask and what to look for. She knew the area and some history. She also gave some good referrals which worked fluidly for me. Courteous and professional!
Philippa is by far the best realtor we dealt with. She is very familiar with the territory she covers. We only had to go out visiting possible homes twice before we found the one we bought, and that home we purchased was the one Philippa found for us. Her skills as a realtor also ensured that we received the price we wanted for the home.We would highly recommend Philippa to anyone looking to purchase or sell.
I was referred to Philippa via a mutual friend and I couldn't have been happier with my decision to hire her. She represented me in both my sale and purchase, which was very stressful at times, but she was very patient and informative throughout the process and made it easy for me to trust her judgment. I also appreciated her responsiveness and I always knew she was looking out for my best interests. She's simply one of the best out there!
Philippa very knowledgeable in the current home market place.Very good personality to work with which makes the whole process more stress less. She thoroughly understands our needs and negotiates very well with the customer.She is a great dedicated asset and I would highly recommend for all the future projects.
Philippa Bebbington was extremely helpful in the sale of my home. My situation was a little unique since I had already located to MA. She went above and behind and I am extremely grateful. She is friendly, knowledgeable and just a great person. I would definitely recommend her to family and friends without a doubt. If I move back to NJ she will be the first person I contact.
Philippa saved the day for me. I was ready to let it go for peanuts and she said "give me a month and I'll sell your house ". She had 2 offers for me the first two weeks. She's creative with showing the house and understands the seller's pressure regarding showings. She arranged a beautiful slide presentation of the house and advertised widely. Her market listing advice was sound and my home sold and closed within a month. She hands down reliable and I highly recommend her. My husband and I walked away with a large profit. She's the best!
I am usually lazy about writing reviews and have done only one or two in my life. However, in this case, I felt that I needed to take the time out to do it. Philippa is one of the most professional, knowledgable and personable brokers I have ever met. She helped me recently purchase an investment property. She handled everything for me. The first few units we looked at together. After that, she was scouting the properties herself, sending me pics, letting me know her opinion of which ones were a good fit for me. Due to my hectic schedule, I was unable to spend much time working through the details. She did the home inspection for me, found me a tenant, did the background check, got a lease agreement, found me lawyers, plumbers, etc. I basically did this transaction over the phone. Through all of this, she never seemed frustrated with my basic questions and guided me (as a first time investor), through the whole process from beginning to end.I intend to use her exclusively going forward for future property purchases. I would recommend anyone interested (especially in the central jersey area) to reach out to her. It is not easy finding good, honest and hardworking individuals that have their clients interest in mind and are on top of everything nowadays. Philippa stands out from the rest.
Philippa worked tirelessly to find my family's first home in High Bridge, NJ. She immediately keyed into our specific wants and needs , and utilized all her knowledge and skill to find many options for our search. We were able to give Philippa specific areas and addresses to search, and she would promptly contact us with an amazing amount of information for our perusal. As new, prospective home buyers, the search can be intimidating and stressful, with many ups and downs. As our search stretched out, Philippa never gave up researching and providing options that fit our description and budget. She was often a calming and reassuring voice, adding a personal touch with amazing advice, fresh perspectives, and positivity throughout. Once we found our home, Philippa made certain everything necessary to finalize the purchase was in order. Philippa also has an amazing network of colleagues and business associates that came highly recommended to help with our closing- all of whom sat at the closing table and helped my family and I realize a dream. Phillipa will get you the home you want, and we can't thank her enough for helping us find ours-The Bizzarro Family
We worked with Philippa to find the perfect first home for us. We told her exactly what we were looking for and she automatically gave us multiple suggestions. She was very knowledgeable of the areas that she was driving us around to and very professional. She suggested places to eat and told us everything that was near by. (i.e. wholesale clubs, supermarkets, etc.) We would definitely recommend her to our friends/family who are looking for a home. When we decide to move in the future, we will definitely ring her up to help sell our house as well as find us a new one. Thank you Philippa!
I am so grateful to have found Phillipa!! As a first time buyer, I had many questions, concerns and overall anxiety on the process. Philippa was always extremely patient, she explained and presented all my options and NEVER pressured me into any of the many homes that we saw. She is very professional, pleasant, super knowledgeable, punctual, flexible and down to earth. It is thanks to Philippa that I found my perfect home!!!!!
Philippa was great to work with and made our new home search easier than we had imagined. Her knowledge of the area and of the entire real estate process is impressive and made us feel comfortable in all aspects of our experience with her. Also, she is very responsive and patient with our many questions. We recommend her highly.
I moved from CA in NJ in Feb 2015. Having only one month to organize it and find a place in a state, in which I have never been before, was more than a challenge. Philippa contacted me following up with my inquiry regarding a rental house on Zillow. She spent two weeks looking for a nice place for me and my dog. We were checking and discussing all properties together, she went to see several of them despite of the very bad winter conditions at the time. Once we chose my current residence, she negotiated with the owner to accept my dog and did the walk-thru, because I was coming two weeks after the lease was supposed to start. Philippa was the most helpful, friendly, and patient real estate agent I have ever worked with. I highly appreciate her help, which made my moving less stressful. I love my new place and the neighborhood in Franklin Township.If I decide in the future to change my rental place or buy a house, she will be the first person I will ask for an advice.
Philippa is the ideal realtor. i listed my house few years back. She had a broker/agent open house and also conducted open houses very soon after listing. She follows through with each showing and shared the feedback. Philippa also was my son and daughter in law's realtor and they found their first home 3 yrs ago. She is very knowledgeable, has a lot of experience, very personable, and easy to work with.
My husband and I used Philippa for our investment property in 2012 and in 2014. Phillipa was professional, responsive and awesome to work with! She serviced our property when we were out of town, kept up with the inquiries, took pictures and followed up with the potential tenants immediately. We highly recommend her!
We bought our first house with Philippa, it was easy and fast, but no rush, and we found exactly what we were looking for! Philippa is fantastic to work with! She is professional, easy going, friendly, and honest. She gave as great tips, and explained us in details everything that we had to know, since we were baying for the first time. She answered all of our many, many questions. She was available every time we needed her, and she was quick responding.We love and enjoy our first home. We will defiantly go with Phillipa again next time we decide to buy or sell and we will recommend her to anyone. Thank you Phillippa for helping us finding our dream home!Sloba and Kaja
Philippa is a pleasure to work with and is always on top of everything and has the clients best interest at heart, at all times!!! I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell!!
Philippa and I met as I was looking for a home for some friends still living out of the country. Not knowing exactly what they wanted, Philippa took on the task of finding them a home. She has a vast knowledge of the neighborhood and what to lok for in general made the task alot easier for me. She is calm and very respectful although I had to translate the requests of my friends who had no knowledge of what it took to find a home here in the USA. Philippa was very flexible and understanding. She is what one would expect from an agent that loves what she does.
Philippa was very knowledgeable and helpful throughout the entire process of selling our home and finding a new one. She is extremely responsive to any questions that come up and was also able to recommend qualified people needed to complete the process such as mortgage brokers, lawyers and home inspectors. We would definitely recommend Philippa to anyone deciding to make a move.
Philippa is, by far, one of the most professional real estate agents around. Quick to respond, with a complete understanding of a client's needs, I would highly recommend her to anyone.
Philippa is everything we needed in an agent. She helped us buy our home after months of looking. She might have even known exactly what we wanted/needed probably before we even did! My husband and I had different wish lists for our dream home and she really took the effort to find homes that included both of our wants. She really was on top of things, sent listings as soon as they became available (via text when I was in school as I am a teacher and by phone any other time-she knew how to get in touch with us depending on the time of day with our crazy schedules). I truly appreciated that she always responded promptly to my emails and showed us homes at whatever time/day was convenient for us. We saw so many houses, I was starting to get discouraged and a few times I even thought maybe my husband and I would never agree on a house. But Philippa was so cool and calm and urged us to be patient and NOT to settle...we would find our home. This kind of confidence can only come with the years of experience she has. Her knowledge and understanding of the real estate market is exactly what we needed as first time home buyers. She also has a great knowledge of the various neighborhoods we were looking in. Ultimately, it was his insight that helped us find a home that suits us perfectly. Our experience with Philippa was exceptional, she goes above and beyond what is necessary or expected!
Dear Philippa,We want to let you know how much we appreciate your assistance in helping us purchase our first home!! Your professionalism and devotion to our needs far and beyond exceeded our expectations.. You treated us as though we were your only client. You gave us your full and undivided attention in this long and often-times stressful journey to finding us our first perfect home. Your work ethic and professionalism is outstanding. During our search, we must have visited around 30+ homes. You understood our desire for a young center-colonial home and never once did you encourage us to view "other" types homes that did not fit that criteria. You were very patient with us and NEVER placed unwanted pressure to make offers on homes that did not fit to our specifications or to make a quick purchase on a home.We were so impressed to say the least of your diligence, market-based knowledge, and your professionalism compared to the bad experiences we had with other real estate companies prior to working with you. Unfortunately, not all real estate agents exhibit such (and much needed) qualities in the industry based on our experience prior to working with you. Such qualities which are very important to first-time home buyers.You treated us as serious buyers. You diligently followed up with us regularly in order to gain further knowledge on our preferences on a home. You were always accommodating and on-time for every viewing which was very important to me as we had limited time to view homes due to our hectic work schedule. You exhibit excellent communication skills and were reachable at all times via telephone, text and email. We had the pleasure to have worked directly with you and you never so busy to refer us to work with anyone else in the agency. That said, its a pleasure to write this testimonial and we recommend Philippa Bebbington for your all buying and selling needs.B. Henderson
