GARDEN STATE LIVING: A GLIMPSE INTO THE DESIRABILITY OF NEW JERSEY REAL ESTATE
Neighbor to New York City and home to some of the most incredible communities in the country, it’s no surprise that New Jersey is loved by so many. In fact, more and more are flocking to New Jersey, which saw a 33% increase year-over-year in sales in July. We put the spotlight on three New Jersey agents to explore their business and hear what they love about the state they call home.
Meet Ed Verdel of the VIP Team
A top-producing realtor and investor, Ed Verdel manages The VIP Team. Originally founded in 2013, Ed's team is responsible for over $150 million in sales volume across 25+ cities in northern New Jersey. Ed and his team’s mission is to understand each client’s distinct needs and motivations and to help them reach their goals, whether it's in sales, rentals, investments, or property management.
“It’s amazing to have access to gorgeous beaches, mountains, and lakes, and be just minutes from NYC. I love my time spent walking along the Hudson River waterfront taking in the view.”
Meet Stephanie Mallios
Stephanie has been serving New Jersey residents and helping clients achieve their goals and dreams for 30 years, one individual at a time. Leveraging her extensive knowledge of the Short Hills, Millburn, Maplewood, South Orange, Summit, and surrounding areas, she has been recognized every year as one of the top producers in New Jersey and has sold over 1,000 homes.
“It’s the people here that make NJ my home — educated, sophisticated, friendly, plus many expats from The Big Apple. The convenience cannot be matched; Newark Liberty Airport is so close, commuter trains to NY are quick, and within an hour we can be skiing in the mountains or sitting on the beach ‘down the shore.’”
As buyer priorities continue to shift, the benefits of a suburban lifestyle—found in abundance throughout New Jersey—have become increasingly enticing. Whether you’re seeking cozy communities or sprawling estates, the Garden State delivers a variety of homes, neighborhoods, and lifestyles.
