NJ
Markets / New Jersey

Bergen County.

Top-rated schools, NYC proximity, and one of the strongest residential markets in the tri-state area. Whether you're buying your first home or selling at peak value — this is where I started, and where I dominate.

Why Bergen County

The gold standard of North Jersey.

🏫

Elite School Systems

Bergen County is home to some of the highest-ranked public and private schools in the nation. For families, this is the #1 draw — and the #1 reason property values hold strong.

🚆

NYC Commuter Access

NJ Transit, bus lines, and the GWB put midtown Manhattan within 30-60 minutes. Live in the suburbs, work in the city — without the city price tag.

🏡

Diverse Housing Stock

From Saddle River estates to Westwood colonials to Fort Lee high-rises — Bergen County has every housing type at every price point. There's something for everyone.

📈

Consistent Appreciation

Low inventory and high demand have kept Bergen County property values climbing. Well-priced homes routinely sell at or above asking with multiple offers.

🍕

World-Class Dining & Culture

Italian bakeries, Korean BBQ, sushi, farm-to-table — Bergen County's food scene rivals the city. Plus proximity to NYC arts, sports, and entertainment.

🌳

Green Space & Quality of Life

Parks, reservations, trails, and tree-lined streets. Bergen County delivers suburban quality of life with urban convenience — the best of both worlds.
