With excitement, ERA Justin Realty proudly received the 2011 Little League Championship trophy for the team's winning effort throughout the season. Those presenting included team members, Delaney Manning, Jennifer Netelkos, Elizabeth Hurlburt  and coaches, George Netelkos, Bernie Hurlburt, and Dennis Stafford. Ron Darby, Broker Co-owner accepted the championship trophy and immediately placed in the office window where it is prominently displayed.

Just prior, the new 2012 teams began the season with a parade through Rutherford leading to Memorial Field for their first games of this season.

Flashback to spring 2011, ERA Justin Realty was approached to be a sponsor of a Rutherford Little League girls softball team. Without hesitation the answer was a resounding yes, never realizing that the team would be honored as the champs for the season.

Ron said, “Girls softball was long overdue as there had never been girls Little League in Rutherford. This was to be the start of something wonderful for our town. And at the end of the first season it was proven to be a big success with many wonderful girls Little League teams sponsored by many of our outstanding area business leaders. ERA Justin Realty’s girls Little League was on its way, our team was formed, the excitement began and in a blink it is now the 2012 second season.”

The ERA Justin Realty team became the first Rutherford Little League Softball Major Division Champions ever. ERA Justin Realty has offered strong thanks to the Rutherford Little League, Rutherford Recreation Department, and the Softball Committee for their efforts in making 2011 and 2012 successful seasons for all of the girl Little League players.

The coaches added, “We are very proud of how well the girls play and their show of true team effort throughout the seasons, while having fun."

Ron concluded, “At ERA Justin Realty the words, ‘There is a difference in real estate companies’ is more than a phrase. We believe strongly in community and our sponsorship of our team is exceptionally rewarding. Because of our support of community activities and our charitable contributions we proudly received the prestigious ERA worldwide 2003-2011 Commitment to Excellence Award.”

ERA Justin Realty Report: New Kid On The Block

Fara Espandi, a Realtor professional with ERA Justin Realty is a

ERA Justin Realty Report: New Kid On The Block


Moving is a major change for all members of a family. Adult responsibilities weigh heavily when keeping track of all the tasks needed to make a move go smoothly. If you have children, this may be an interesting time to focus on their problems, but it’s also one of the most crucial times to keep their concerns in mind.

Sometimes what seems like a major disruption to adults is viewed as an adventure to the kids. Still, changing homes can also upset feelings of stability (in the case of younger children) and belonging (in the case of teens). These are special concerns for these age groups.

According to ERA Justin Realtor professional Fara Espandi, “The most important thing a parent can do is maintain normal routines as much as possible, and when it isn't possible, to let the kids know that apprehension about a big life change is normal, too. Keep calm about the move yourself, and your children will be more likely to follow your lead. It is advisable to be open about what’s happening, the excitement of a new house and the positives about the move.

This means keeping your kids in the loop at each stage of the move. They don't have to get a vote, but it helps everyone for them to get increasingly use to the idea of this change. Bring them along when you look at houses, make them familiar with the new area you're moving to, and investigate its attractions (including the athletic or extra-curricular offerings that appeal to your kids). Exploring some of this on the Internet is a good way to relate your relocation to an activity they already enjoy.

Encourage your children to express any worries, and do what you can to reassure them. If you went through similar experiences as a child, you can share how you dealt with it, if it was easy, so much the better, and if it was hard, your children will know they're not the only ones who have ever had to deal with change.
   
Minimizing the transition is essential for a smooth move with children. Try and arrange visits to the new school and meetings with the new teachers before the school year or semester starts. When you have more than one child, make bedroom assignments in the new house as soon as possible to avoid sibling strife (comfort, privacy and age seniority are all issues of kid politics that it is sometimes easy for grownups to forget).

Above all, be open and patient. If you pay the right attention, you will be letting your children know that, move or no move, the most important people in their lives aren't going anywhere.”

“There is a difference in real estate companies,” added Ron Darby, Broker Owner.  “Presenting consumer information, we believe, is in order to exceed sellers expectations of what ERA Justin Realty is about, and we don't offer just the basics.    In that way, we know that our sellers will hold us in the highest regard.  Our sellers have put their thoughts in writing. We have on file for the asking, ‘What people are saying’ our report of nearly 800 quotes and testimonials from our sellers and buyers.  No other area real estate firm can offer that.  Are we proud?  Absolutely!”

ERA Justin Realty has proudly received the prestigious ERA 2003 through 2010 Commitment to Excellence Award, for their service to their buyers, sellers and the communities they serve.  and is a national Top-100 ERA brokerage firm. For these reasons ERA Justin Realty should be your buying and selling Realtor of choice.
