    Real Estate has been part of my life for 25+ years. I remember in 1989 when my father explained to me what a recession was and why he was buying homes, fixing them and either renting them out or selling them. He saw potential in areas before they became a boom for others. I learned how to spot an investment that was looked down upon from others and turn it into a positive cash flow. My experiences range from all aspects of Real Estate as I pushed myself into opportunities such as loan processing, managing a construction office, underwriting, incorporating and managing the first Sotheby's west coast office and opening other branches successfully. Property management, and owning and managing a New Jersey and California appraisal management company. Throughout this process I have assisted myself and my clients in purchasing and selling their homes to their full potential. My number one priority is not just closing a deal, its assisting my clients in leveling up their lives for today and tomorrow. We must realize that Real Estate has a cycle and the key is riding the cycle and finding your niche. I welcome all buyers and sellers whether they are purchasing for investment purposes or personal, to contact me and join the cycle of longevity for yourselves and your family. Reach out to me so that I can share some of my knowledge with you and help you make your dreams come true.

    “Lilly was more than a relief throughout my entire process!!!”

How should I choose between them?

Read the investor reviews first, then the agent's own forum posts, which show how they think about a deal before you have spent an hour on the phone. Ask each for the last three investment deals they closed in Passaic County and how those deals performed. An agent who works with investors will have the numbers ready.

What is an investor-friendly real estate agent?

Not all real estate agents know the features investors need when purchasing rental properties. Some real estate agents work primarily with buyers looking for a primary residence. These buyers have many different needs than real estate investors. Primary residence real estate agents focus on features primary homebuyers need for their family versus considering after-repair value, the local rental market, or renovation costs. An investor-friendly agent understands the business side of purchasing rental properties and will help investors find properties that not only meet their budget but also help them achieve their investment goals.
