I have known the Broker/Owner of Public Trust Realty Group for decades and have bought and sold properties through his company with great ease. He makes the process so easy for me and his experience is what makes the company run so smoothly. I would highly recommend Public Trust Realty Group and will continue to list and buy homes through this company.

Why Margaret Accepted an Offer on her Teaneck Home Three Days After Listing with Public Trust Realty Group

Margaret's Teaneck home was too big for her and she could no longer maintain it by herself. In April 2006, she signed on with a REALTOR, put the house on the market and decided to move. However, she didn't receive any reasonable offers.

"I tried advertising, a big sign, and I talked about it with all my acquaintances," Margaret said. "I made sure everyone knew I was selling my home, so that they could spread the word."

By April 2009, Margaret relisted her home with another REALTOR, Arun Thomas, and lowered her asking price. She accepted an offer only three days later.

"I understood that the market condition warranted a price reduction, although I would have liked to sell it for a higher price," said Margaret. "I received an offer the first night Arun listed it. Then, I received two more offers the next day. Arun emphasized all the great things that were walking-distance from my house - a bus stop, grocery store, and school - and priced it correctly. We didn't even have a chance to advertise."

Arun helped Margaret through the closing process, which moved smoothly until the buyers asked Margaret to put in a new roof at her own expense.

"I was surprised that they asked me to do that," Margaret said. "I thought it was in good condition and that everything in my home was move-in ready."

Because she didn't want to jeopardize the sale, she conceded and had a new roof put in. This made her closing move more quickly and everything was completed in June 2009.

"I understand that the economy is weak and that it's a buyers' market," Margaret said. "I was willing to make the buyers happy."

Although she knew her home was too big to maintain, Margaret misses having a lot of room to entertain and a big backyard.

"I will miss cutting shrubbery and working with the landscape," she said.

Margaret is now living in her daughter's house in Edgewater, taking a break before looking for another home.

"I would like to buy a condo in the future, but I want to rest before becoming a homeowner again" said Margaret. "I'm not in a rush so I decided to spend some time with my daughter for the time being."

Margaret hopes to buy a condo in Cherry Hill, so that she can stay between her daughter in Edgewater and her other daughter in Maryland.

To Whom It May Concern:

It is with pleasure that I make this recommendation to Public Trust Realty Group.

My wife and I decided to move to a retirement community. The community moving advisor, Margaret, put us in touch with Gail and Arun of Public Trust Realty Group in Teaneck, NJ.

We signed a listing agreement with Public Trust and expected that it would take months to sell the house.

On the very same day, Arun brought a prospect to view the house. To our amazement, we had an offer the next morning at our asking price. Sixty days later we closed.

Arun priced the house to sell and so it did. Gail was my contact person and she was always easy to reach. She answered all our questions and provided us with contacts that we needed to make plans to move.

When we told people we sold the house in 24 hours, they didn't believe us. Arun provided us with his research on the prices of comparable houses. We agreed to sell at the price he recommended an the rest is history.

Sincerely,

Patricia and Richard Cirelli
