As an investor we purchased a bank owned property through Coldwell Banker Flanagan office. It was…read morea positive experience and closed exactly as set in the contract. Because this home had been without electric for over a year, we needed extra care in turning on Electric and water. Coldwell Banker allowed us to use all their credentials so we were able to have an inspection before we closed on the property. I highly recommend this company and will use them for all my transactions.

He has very patiently worked with us to narrow down our search as to what specific areas of the shore we like as well as listening carefully to our requests for the style of home we are dreaming of. Joe has consistently kept us updated of new homes that come on the market which meet our search criteria and has walked us through any questions we might have. As anyone who has ever moved knows, it can be a bit stressful, but Joe is always there to offer assistance, promptly and professionally! If you are looking for a exceptional realtor, contact Joseph McCloskey!

I recently had the pleasure of buying a condo in Point Pleasant Boro. Our realtor, Nancy Hopp,…read moremade the process as seamless as possible. We looked at several properties before finally deciding on the right one. The decision was made easier by Nancy's knowledge of the area. Although we were flexible in terms of exact location, we were very interested in proximity to shopping, bars and restaurants. She had recommendations for them all. I believe she made it a point to understand the needs of her client. We love our property and couldn't be happier with our realtor. I highly recommend Nancy Hopp at Cara Realtors.

We waited another 30 minutes and she never showed up, and never did answer anymore calls or texts. So unprofessional.

Avoid this HIGHLY UNPROFESSIONAL, UNETHICAL real estate firm at all costs!…read more I urge you to steer clear due to the cruel practices displayed by Pasch's realtor associate. This individual engaged in unacceptable "games," manipulating good people's emotions & wasting precious time. While not an attorney & unable to definitively comment on the legality (in NJ) of what occurred, I feel compelled to share my experience to help others avoid the anguish my family endured. I was asked to assist my Sr. parents in selling their long-term home. This associate, acting as both buyer/acting agent, should be held to a higher standard of professionalism/ethics. INSTEAD, she engaged in behavior that's utterly appalling! Not an attorney, but I suspect her actions might even warrant a license revocation, though it may first require going through legal disclosure to obtain essential docs enabling inquiries/depositions to uncover exact timelines. Even if what she did was technically legal, it was completely uncalled for!! Here's what transpired: On a Tues eve, my agent submitted an offer from a Pausch associate that was about $20,000 below asking price. Out of an abundance of (totally undeserved) respect, I'm omitting the realtor's name, but my parents promptly decided to counter the offer the next day. Note the timeline: Wednesday evening, this agent/potential buyer was still negotiating, acting as if she genuinely wanted to buy the home. Within 15 minutes of receiving our counter, they asked if we could split the difference. (IE: ACTIVELY engaging with a counter offer of her own). I don't know what her potential motive/mindset was as here's what occurred: After the agent countered, I quickly communicated our acceptance to our agent. I even agreed in a respectful, friendly,& professional note to work with her for the quick close she desired, despite the logistical difficulties it created. We were willing to do anything necessary to facilitate an easy close. Little did we know, this woman was just toying with us!! To our dismay & my parents' distress, our agent later informed us that the seller encountered "difficulty" sending the written contracts Wed evening, promising they'd arrive by the following morning. That should have been our 1st red flag. Imagine our shock when we learned the next day that she wouldn't fulfill her promise BECAUSE she had ALSO put in an offer on a SECOND property that, according to my agent, had UNFATHOMABLY COMPLETED ATTORNEY REVIEW!! (uncertain if completed Wed night or Thurs morning, but pretty irrelevant) As this behavior was ethically questionable & timeline highly suspicious as to motive/logic. If you were in my position, would you want the stress of navigating this while helping your elderly parents sell their home? Why would you put in a counteroffer that was immediately accepted in under 15 mins, when you were literally hours away from completing attorney review? WHO DOES THAT?!? Given how quickly we responded, if the buyer had genuine interest in our home, & even if mere hours away from the other home's review, she still had time to complete the written contract. The fact that she didn't, tells me she had no genuine interest & was just acting irresponsibly & cruelly! - Legal doesn't always mean right, particularly for licensed professionals. - Submitting an offer just hours (well under 24!) prior to completing attorney review Ozn ANOTHER home is reckless. ⁃ WHAT TYPE OF AGENT/BUYER DOES THIS? And how does the owner of this firm condone such behavior? This demonstrates a complete lack of respect for my parents' (the sellers) emotions/well-being. My family believed they had successfully entered into a sale, only to have their hopes cruelly shattered! This was completely unnecessary!! It's clear the buyer/agent had no genuine intent to complete the transaction, so why entertain the offer/counter offer?! Conversations with friends, including attorneys/realtors, have confirmed my belief that this conduct is an egregious breach of ethical standards and unacceptable in business. Even if NJ law allows simultaneous offers, why choose to do so at the last possible moment? It raises serious concerns about their judgment & practices! I would not want to engage with this firm as a seller or buyer; their ethics appear suspect. With countless reputable & skilled realtors in NJ, no justification for working with this firm. Their behavior raises questions: Why the delay in sending contracts? Why the lack of communication? I attempted to reach the owner multiple times (via urgent emaill/calls) respectfully, only to be met with silence. Is it so difficult to address unethical practices? Even his voicemail (on his listed number) has no actual msg stating either his or the firm's name--extremely unprofessional! Please heed my experience & go elsewhere! & if you're a seller, I'd recommend sticking to your asking price and seeking any other buyer than from this firm. You'll be grateful you did...

There are many real estate agencies in the Ocean County area offering residential and commercial…read moresales and rentals. However, the one that our family and friends always turn to is Villano Realtors because they have the best listings and because of their reputation for dealing fairly with buyers, sellers, and landlords. Sherry Villano, the broker/owner here, oversees a very professional, honest, and dependable staff who are very familiar with properties and their values throughout our area and take a sincere and personal interest to make sure their customers are completely satisfied. Villano Agency not only has earned the admiration and loyalty of returning customers but also the trust of local landlords who would have no one else handle their Summer Rentals properties. I am only too happy to recommend Villano Agency to anyone who is looking to buy, sell, or rent in our area.

The renter met me appon entering his home and told me where he wants me to mop and said they are blankets in the closet but please do not use them. I was only in the home for four days and left early. The renter took $500 for security and only gave me $300 back that is after we threatened Villano. The owner said we left a "tissue" in the garbage pail!!! I told Shari Villano and they did NOTHING , it took me almost TWO MONTHS after telling them and emailing them of my address, I have email to prove. They refuse to email me back in writing.
