She has the gift of being able to develop warm, personal relationships with families, establishing long-term associations that continue year after year and across the generations. She conducts her business with the highest level of integrity, confidentiality and professionalism." Why I'm Right for You!!! There is a perfect home for everyone and I can help you find it! I know that there is so much more to buying a house than the number of bedrooms and baths – we fall in love with the community of Westfield and need to find the home that meets our current and unique needs - it is where we live our lives, make our memories, cherish our families – buying a house is partly an emotional choice and I educate you make it an informed decision as well. My hard work, positive attitude, integrity and unsurpassed local knowledge have helped my clients to find their perfect match of a home. As a resident of Westfield, New Jersey for over twenty years, I specialize in representing clients marketing and purchasing of single-family homes in my own neighborhood. I can bring a depth of knowledge and experience about the communities and homes in the Westfield, Mountainside, Cranford, Scotch Plains, Fanwood, Garwood, Springfield and Clark areas. My understanding of these towns allows me to find the right house for the unique needs of each family. My extensive knowledge of the local markets enables me to immediately identify opportunities, understand property value and effectively negotiate. As an Accredited Buyers Representative, I take my responsibility seriously, professionally and ethically. Once local, I help new residents make this area home! I schedule an annual “Girls Night Out” so that women can meet their neighbors and am responsible for a long list of friendships and playgroups! For sellers, I have a proven, systematic marketing plan which involves exposure to all potential buyers immediately upon entry into the market. It is important to minimize days on market. No home builds “days on market” until it is absolutely ready. My Accredited Staging Professional (ASP) certification allows me to provide guidance to sellers in the staging and readiness of their home. I maximize internet presence – I utilize every conceivable on-line resource and provide professional photography and floor plans so that the home attracts interest immediately. I meticulously evaluate recent market activity and buyer responses to neighborhood, schools, amenities and property potential to market each home's strengths for maximum exposure and determine the right price to produce the greatest possible return. With the strength of Coldwell Banker behind me, I have access to the strongest local brokerage in the area with dominant market share in each town. I also believe that communication is the key to minimize stress – I keep sellers informed of all feedback, comments, interest, competitive offerings so that everyone is educated and comfortable. Community Involvement Maryalice also holds local seminars on real estate issues such as staging, home preparation and current market conditions. She is an appointed member of the Westfield Board of Adjustments and the Republican Committee of Westfield and, thus, has first hand knowledge of issues, plans and trends. Maryalice is also an active volunteer with the Interfaith Council for the Homeless.
