The Power of Local Market Concentration
Looking at my transaction history across Northern New Jersey reveals something important: deep expertise in specific communities rather than scattered transactions across dozens of towns.

The data shows my strongest presence in.
- Edgewater: 59 transactions totaling over $18.4 million
- Fort Lee: 53 transactions with steady performance across market cycles
- West New York: 36 transactions with an impressive average sale price of $430,568
- Cliffside Park: 31 transactions in this increasingly desirable Gold Coast community
- Leonia: 29 transactions averaging $652,145, totaling nearly $19 million in volume
- Total Closed Transactions: 504 covering the New York Metro Area on the NJ Side of the Hudson River as of 2 27 25
What does this concentration mean for you? When you work with an agent who has completed dozens of transactions in your specific town, you benefit from:
- Hyper-local pricing knowledge that goes beyond basic comps to understand subtle value differences between streets and neighborhoods
- Established relationships with local inspectors, attorneys, and service providers who can expedite your transaction
- Intimate knowledge of building quirks, from which condo associations are well-funded to which streets flood during heavy rain
Property Expertise That Matches Our Market
Another revealing insight comes from analyzing my transactions by property type:

This breakdown shows my specialized experience in:
- Condos and Townhomes: 130 transactions combined, reflecting the housing stock along the Gold Coast
- Co-ops: 33 transactions, with particular strength in Fort Lee where I've handled 31 co-op sales
- Single-Family Colonials: 31 transactions, predominantly in communities like Leonia where this style dominates
What's particularly interesting is how my expertise aligns with each town's housing stock:
- In Edgewater, my sales focus on townhomes (27 sales) and condos (14 sales)
- In Fort Lee, I've developed specialized knowledge in co-ops (31 sales)
- In Leonia, I've focused on colonial homes (17 sales)
This specialized knowledge matters because selling a Fort Lee co-op requires entirely different expertise than marketing a Leonia colonial. From board approval processes to buyer financing challenges, each property type presents unique obstacles that I've navigated repeatedly.
Market Trends Reveal Opportunity
Analyzing my sales over time reveals interesting patterns about our local market:
- Transaction volume peaked in 2022 with 25 sales, showing strong performance even as the broader market faced challenges
- Co-op sales have shown significant growth since 2021, becoming a substantial part of my business
- Condo sales have remained consistent even during market fluctuations
These trends reflect both my business growth and shifting market dynamics. The surge in co-op sales, for instance, speaks to buyers seeking more affordable entry points into desirable communities as overall prices have risen.
What This Means For You
Whether you're buying or selling, my transaction history translates to tangible benefits:
For Sellers:
- Strategic pricing based on actual comparable sales I've personally handled, not just MLS data
- Marketing tailored to property type, since I understand what features buyers value most in your specific type of home
- Access to a cultivated network of buyers looking in your specific community
For Buyers:
- Insight into value trends across neighborhoods and building types
- Negotiation leverage from knowing actual (not just listed) sales prices in your target buildings or streets
- Guidance on which properties maintain value best based on historical performance
Beyond the Charts
While these visualizations showcase the breadth and depth of my experience, they don't capture the hundreds of families I've helped navigate complex transactions, the challenging negotiations I've successfully managed, or the relationships I've built throughout our communities.
Real estate success isn't just about the number of transactions—it's about the knowledge gained from each one. Every closing teaches lessons that benefit future clients, whether it's discovering which lenders perform best with certain property types or which renovation investments yield the highest returns in specific neighborhoods.
