Laura helped us find the perfect home in our dream location, and was a wonderful realtor. From the start, we were so impressed with the specific insight and detail she shared about how to navigate the competitive market. She was flexible and accommodating, making it easy for us to search for houses from out of town. She was eager provide information about real estate, home improvement, and the town in general -- answering any questions we had (or didn't even anticipate!) along the way. Highly recommend Laura to any buyers in need of guidance!

Laura is so much more than a real estate agent. We have worked with her for over a year in multiple counties to find a home. She never gave up, was always incredibly quick to respond (even while on vacation!) and was knowledgeable throughout the entire process. We trust her more than words can say and would work with her again without hesitation. I can’t recommend her highly enough. She’s the absolute best.

We worked with Laura to purchase a home in Montclair and she was excellent. We felt very fortunate to have found her - she’s an expert on the local market and has a wealth of resources for home buyers and about the area generally, which she generously shared. Most importantly, she really took the time to understand our preferences (we had many!) while also gently nudging us to consider certain homes that we might not have, which was helpful. It took us nearly 2 years to find a home - we searched at a historically difficult time - and she patiently stuck with us through all of the market uncertainty. We couldn’t be happier with the home that we found and it wouldn’t have been possible without Laura. We highly recommend her!

My partner and I have now worked with Laura three times. She helped us to find our home, and assisted me through the process of securing the perfect spaces for my business (twice!). Laura is kind and helpful, and extremely informed. There were a number of times that she thought to ask questions of the landlords, and/or about the spaces that I never would have considered, and guided me in thinking through different ways of using each space to ensure that it would fit my business needs. In addition to this, Laura is incredibly reliable and accessible. Whenever I had a question, it was answered almost immediately. I am confident that Laura would be the best choice for anybody looking to purchase real estate for their home and/or to identify the perfect commercial properties for a businesses. I wish there was a 10-star option. She's that good.

My wife and I have now worked with Laura twice to buy properties in Montclair - first for our home and several years later for an investment property/apartment. In both cases, Laura was extremely helpful. She thinks of questions and potential issues we often missed. She is incredibly organized and quick to turn around any questions or things we needed throughout the property search, bidding, negotiating and closing process. In both cases, she helped us prepare compelling offers that were within budget and accepted quickly and without disappointment (which is almost unheard of in Montclair!). She also helped us explore neighboring towns so we could better compare and contrast what we really wanted in a home and community, I can’t recommend her enough as a real estate agent for any prospective buyer in this area!

We worked with Laura for both the purchase and sale of our home. Throughout both transactions (both during times of absolute craziness in the housing markets), Laura exhibited a calm, level-headed approach that always kept our best interests at the forefront. In both situations, she provided advice and feedback on how to handle stressful situations at all points in the process. We were extremely pleased with our results.In the case of our home sale, she was quick to develop an effective pricing strategy that generated outstanding interest in our home and ultimately led to our home selling for above asking price! She works with amazing partners in the area to make our home look even more beautiful than we could have imagined.Bottom line - Laura is best-in-class in her field and sets up her clients for success in the Northern New Jersey real estate market. You'd be smart to work with her.

Laura recently helped my husband and me to renovate and rent an investment property. We purchased an amazing character-filled condo in a great location, however it was in need of many upgrades before we could put it on the market. As two full-time working parents with busy jobs and crazy schedules, we were not up for managing a renovation on top of everything else. However Laura said she would help ensure a smooth process and she did. She helped us identify and select contractors, negotiate pricing and timelines, navigate condo association and town approvals and requirements, address challenges and bumps in the road (there are always bumps!) and resolve everything in a timely and cost-conscious manner. Once done, Laura was able to list and rent the property at a market price quickly and painlessly - and even helped us with the leasing and move-in process. She was calm, focused, professional, thoughtful and empathetic along the way. She is truly incredible and an amazing collaborator and project manager. She is someone I'd highly recommend to anyone investing in property either as a one-off (like ours) or in an ongoing manner.

Coming from someone who is generally skeptical of brokers, Laura is amazing! Laura really looked out for our family’s best interests and is incredibly knowledgeable about the different towns, school systems, etc. She never tried to “sell” us on a property and pointed out both the good and bad points of each house. When we became anxious in our search and started losing common sense, she talked us out of one specific house that had hidden mold issues. We took her advice, waited, and the right house came along. We look forward to working with Laura again in the future!

Laura was amazing in her support to us during our selling process. We were overwhelmed getting the house ready for sale. Laura stepped in to cover and help with any and every detail to support us. She has an incredible team that showed up to help us with anything we needed. I've never seen a real estate agent carry tools and screwdrivers to tighten things up and fix things! She also was able to help us find a great rental home quickly without wasting time! Thank you so much, Laura!! ✨⭐️

I called Laura a number of years ago when we were first thinking about selling. I liked her positive attitude and impressive knowledge. When we were ready to sell this past summer I called her again because she had impressed me. Laura helped us with every stage of the selling process. She offered her help in so many ways with all types of information and recommendations. She also helped us make our house look amazing when she decorated for our open house. I would highly recommend her to my closest friends and family. We can’t thank you enough, Laura.

Laura is simply the best. The best. She has been our trusted realtor from the time we first rented a home in Montclair. When we bought, her expert knowledge and skills saved us tens of thousands of dollars on the transaction. But there are not enough superlatives for her as a seller's broker. She managed the preparation of our home in every detail, expertly and efficiently, she knows every trades person and they give her their best deals.In a matter of weeks she transformed our home to picture perfect glory, staged it beautifully, all the marketing was top notch, the negotiations were smooth thanks to her careful preparations, and we could not be more grateful.

Laura is very dedicated to her clients. She never leaves you hanging and will almost always pick up the phone, even if it’s to say “I’m with a client, may I call you back in X minutes” and she will call/text/ or email you back promptly after. We have 3 kids and chaotic schedules and she made every effort to make herself available even at times when I’m sure it ruined her day. I can’t stress how intimately familiar she is with the nuances of areas she covers; from transportation to local events to the best sledding hills, she is a wealth of knowledge on the community. She’s is also great at knowing the cost of basic updates and contractors you could use to get the job done. We were difficult clients and Laura was always professional, honest, reliable, and pleasant to be with. We landed on a home we were really happy to be in. Thanks Laura for your dedicated service!
