Their statistics include being #1 in Rutherford closed sales for the past 13 years. ERA real estate has 32 New Jersey offices to serve you. Their New Jersey offices support each other, making their ERA brands strong and on the cutting edge of technology.  That strength including incoming and outgoing referral business brings success in closed transactions and opportunities to buyers and sellers.
 
Michelle Korosy the firm's office coordinator said, "Before making a decision about whether to go it alone, it is important to have a realistic idea of what is involved in the biggest financial transaction most of us are likely to make. Why work with a professional Realtor agent at ERA Justin Realty? Here are six reasons to consider:
 
Reason #1 - Realtors  know your market. The ERA Justin Realtor agents are in a position to know what’s happening in the real estate market, not just in our state and your community, but in your neighborhood. As trained professionals who may have seen hundreds of homes similar to yours and know their features and selling prices, a professional is well qualified to set a price that can bring the maximum number of offers for your home.
 
Reason #2 - Our Realtor agents, brokers and management team focus on the details. Accurate pricing, qualifying potential buyers, positioning advertising for maximum exposure, evaluating potential offers, negotiations and closing the sale are some of the basic skills needed to successfully sell your home. Then there are environmental, government and disclosure requirements that must be followed.
 
Reason #3 - We  know marketing. Marketing that attracts offers, not just lookers. A coordinated marketing campaign using the right combination of print advertising, direct mail and the Internet ensures your home receives maximum exposure. And our experienced Realtor agents can advise you on cost-effective strategies for ensuring your home looks its best to potential buyers."
 
Glenn Elliot added, "Reason #4 - ERA Justin Realtor agents  are pros at bringing buyers and sellers
together. We may already have a buyer for your home! Successful Realtors agents  are continually replenishing their rosters of potential buyers, as well as networking with other real estate professionals who may have the perfect buyer for your home.
 
Reason #5 - Realtors  work to reduce stress. Are you prepared to show your home in the middle of the day? Every weekend? ERA Justin Realtor agents  schedule showing your home whenever it is convenient for a potential buyer and seller. It’s our job. And they are available to respond quickly and courteously to inquiries by phone call, email, text and fax. Think of our Realtor agents your personal home sales assistant."
 
Carol D. Calamari added, "Reason # 6 - Realtor agents with ERA Justin Realty are experienced negotiators. They work closely with our brokers and management team for you. We can help avoid costly errors during the negotiation phase of a transaction. As experienced negotiators, we can help maintain objectivity during what can often be an emotional time for sellers and buyers. And the ability to deal successfully with any issues that crop up often calls for just the right combination of firmness and diplomacy.
 
Whether you are a seller or a buyer, perhaps the biggest benefit real estate professionals have to offer to you is their experience and we've just touched on a few of the dozens of reasons why we are successful for our buyers and sellers. Ask to see our nearly 800 real estate results in writing publication, winning reviews about our successful services. We have made assisting buyers and sellers our business, so that you can get on with the business, and pleasure, of realizing your dream!"
