Changing market conditions require an adaptive attitude. Barbara has learned that the best way to face today's challenges is by continually learning what those conditions are and responding to them with a proactive plan. With just over 20 years in the real state industry and another 13 in marketing she is able to create unique and individual marketing plans for every seller I work with. If you are looking to buy a property, she knows the inventory and the neighborhoods you are interested in- area tours are one of her buyer specialties and advantages. In keeping with the REALTOR commitment to excellence and education, Barbara has earned numerous certifications and designations: Accredited Buyer Representative (ABR), Short Sale and Foreclosure Specialist (SFR), E- marketing Specialist (ePro), and Senior Real Estate Specialist (SRES) and I am a 203(k) Marketing Specialist. In 2009, she was named REALTOR of the Year by the West Essex Board of Realtors. As a 7th generation Montclair native and current resident of Bloomfield for almost 20 years Barbara is very familiar with the ins outs of most neighborhoods and towns in the area. She is active within the communities she sells- she serves on committees for two of the largest parades in Essex County- Montclair's 4th of July Celebration and West Orange's St Patrick's Day Parade Committees. Barbara is the president of the Blue Lion Booster Club at Immaculate Conception High School, as well as sits on the Board of Trustees for ICHS. She is a trustee of the 100 Club of Montclair. In her spare time she enjoys gardening, golf, high school football, the NY Mets and baking cupcakes!
