Very fortunate to have found Ed and Victoria. They helped us find, make an offer, and close a deal on an investment property in West New York. From showing us homes on short notice on a whirlwind trip, to referring an attorney and insurance agent, they were top notch. Outstanding communication and responsiveness. Highly recommend. read more

Ed Verdel and the Compass team are hands down the best realtors in Hoboken. Ed is knowledgeable, personable, and extremely quick to answer any text or email. I can't recommend him and the Compass team highly enough! read more

After living in our current condo in Hoboken for no more (and no less) than 2 years 4 months and 22 to 28 days, we were informed by our landlords that the unit was going to be put on the market and we would have 60 days to leave once it went into contract. After this conversation and subsequent disbelief, I remembered this tiny little clause that lurked unsuspectingly on the first page of our lease.....in bold, practically unmissable font with 18 arrows pointing to it (well, maybe not 18) that stated the above to be very true. After some thought, we decided that 60 days (assuming the condo would sell fast, which it did) was not enough time to locate and purchase a house (our original plan) and started looking for rentals in the area. In January. With no fee (unplanned move + large realtor fee..ehhhh.) Well, we started looking out deeper into NJ but that didn't go as planned, so AFTER that we looked online (craigslist mostly) for units were similar to the one we were in. I saw Konstantin's name on a few of the posts, and texted him around 11am on a Sunday. Right around 11:02 I heard back, and by 11:08 we had four appointments set up with him. Such last minute, on a cold Sunday in January? No problem. Awesome. Konstantin took us to the first property we picked and took the time to note our preferences, likes, dislikes, must haves, must have-nots, etc etc. He then automatically weeded out the rest of the day based on that. No wasted time, no irrelevant showings, no "well, let's just go look..", none of that "I know this has a fee but it's so perfect!" - just exactly what we wanted served up on a silver platter. How? Konstantin knows the market like the back of his hand. He did well, because we found our place that day. Due to our situation with the condo not yet being sold and not being able to actually sign a new lease until it was, we had to sit on it. It was an awesome deal in a brand new unit that was only made possible by two month free special. Needless to say, we got restless, and needed some advice. Konstantin's job was completed at this point - he found us the place where we wanted to move next. Yet...he continued to e-mail with me regularly and talk on the phone about our options, renters rights, risks of not signing, etc. And even weeks later, when we needed to have "that conversation" with our landlords, he was on the phone with beforehand, dolling out advice on how to frame the discussion so I was nice, but made the point that we had been great tenants, very accommodating with the endless showings, and it was time we got a guaranteed move date so we could capitalize on the deal. Everything worked out in the end, and I sure hope he got an awesome commission from the complex on this. When our new lease is up, barring major changes in the location of our employment, we plan on buying a house...somewhere. Konstantin is going to be our first call, because I feel like the no-nonense, no-BS way to buy a house is the way to go. I know he will always have our best interest in mind. Even if where we want to go is in an area he doesn't have as much expertise...we trust that anyone that he refers us to would offer up that same experience. If you are new to Hoboken (or the surrounding area), or even if you already live here, are looking for a new place, and want some help - Konstantin is your man. read more

Ed and the team at Compass were a pleasure to work with. Super attentive and knowledgeable, they made the whole buying experience smooth and painless. I will 100% work with Ed again and will recommend him to all my friends. read more

Ed is top notch! He spent days with us touring houses and providing guidance on the very competitive market. He also got a great sense of what we were looking for in a house. When our offer was accepted, Ed connected us with an attorney, inspector, and title company that we're also incredible. His attorney, Laura, was great to work with and moved quick (helping us save a few thousand $). John his inspector, spent 2-3 hours with us, leaving no stone unturned, and provided the most thorough expectation report. The title company was also extremely professional and detailed. If we buy another house, I will work with Ed and his team again. read more

Seeking to be a first time homeowner with my fiance, we were lucky enough to have Ed referred to us.  From the start, he didn't want to send us just random listings in towns we wanted to live in, he wanted to understand exactly what we're looking for.  Multiple conversations about what was most important to us in looking for a home and that ended up simplifying the process as he clearly cared and wanted us to find the right home for us.   Fast forward 6 patient months, we happily just closed on a great home in Rutherford walking distance to the train and easy commute to the city.  As a first time homeowner, I had tons of questions and one of the best parts of working with Ed was his consistency and availability.  Whether it was asking about a certain listing, or understanding what the right offer price should be, or helping us know the home's worth after inspection, it was just a ton of expertise needed and he was always there. It could have been a text at 7am, phone call at 9pm, emails throughout the day, Ed was always available to answer questions and give guidance.  I was never ever chasing him for a response.  In fact if Ed didn't reply back in more than 5 minutes even with a simple "I will call you in 10 minutes" it was surprising.  He always made himself available.  That type of service gave us peace of mind from the start of the search until closing.  And Ed has an enormous network with people reaching out to him constantly but you'd never know it b/c the consistent personalized relationship he creates just goes such a long way and truly shows his character as a professional and person.   Another element that I liked working with Ed was his honesty.  He always put the ball back in our court because it's my decision at the end of the day but his advice was not trying to push us in any direction, it was just what he truly felt.  In a commission based industry, I imagine it would be easy to keep highlighting the positives in a home but he would also bring up negatives before we even saw them.  Or even during negotiations, telling us we shouldn't ask for this and here's why...That type of honesty was extremely valuable and always reminded me he is really in this for our best interest.   All in all, starting from scratch in buying a home is a process and some say it could be long and painful.  For my fiance and I, it was stress free. Now every purchase and house sale is different for everyone however I'd bet anyone working with Ed will always know where they stand and feel good about it. Having Ed in your corner is a great place to be and I look forward to sending my friends and family his way when they're ready. read more

Verdel Real Estate is amazing. Ed Verdel was my agent. I first used this company to rent my condo. Mr. Verdel found multiple quality candidates who wanted my unit. My unit was rented within 1 week. Mr. Verdel also acted as my property manager since I was on the west coast while renting my condo. He was always in contact with myself and the tenant and resolved issues when they arose. My tenant had all good things to say about him. When I was ready to sell I obviously contacted Mr. Verdel. He provided a strategy, took amazing photos including drone footage and had a successfully open house. Within 1 month my condo had multiple offer and sold for my asking price. Whether you are buying, selling or renting you will have an experienced agent who will customize the process for you. read more

We saw how many great reviews Ed has online and selected him us our buying agent. Ed jumped in right away into telling us about NJ neighborhoods because we just moved to NJ from NYC. At first we were looking in Hoboken and Jersey City but after a while we knew that we wanted a house rather then a condo. We started to discover new neighborhoods such as Summit, Montclair and Westfield. Our heart have settled on Montclair and we started our search. It took us one whole year and 7 unsuccessful bids before we found the home of our dreams! Ed was very patient with us and always spoke his mind when it came to the properties. It was stressful experience for us because it took a whole year but at the end it was all worth it! Thank you Ed and the team for working with us for so long and getting us the best house we can dream of. read more

We were helped by James Oliver. James was incredibly professional, responded promptly to all our questions, and helped us find a lot of great options to choose from. In fact, he was the MOST responsive broker we have ever worked with. He even printed out the places we were looking at so we could take notes. We wanted a place that would give us a short commute to Manhattan and James worked with us to identify the best transit options and even patiently explained some factors of New Jersey transit to us. We are also moving with a cat, and James suggested we send pictures of our cat in with our application, which was a great idea. We would recommend James to anyone looking in the Hoboken /Hudson County area! read more

We were on the market for a new home for a long time. After losing a couple of condos, including our dream condo, due to not the best representation we decided to find another agent. After a lot of research we came across Ed. He has a lot of experience under his belt and a great reputation. I decided to email him and we ended up working together. We were pretty particular in what we were looking for and Ed was very patient with us as we continued our search. He gave us great advice in this crazy market on what we needed to do to get our condo without over spending. We closed on our condo this week and couldn't have done it without the help that Ed provided. Recommend him to anyone looking to buy! read more

Ed Verdel helped my fiancé and I purchase our first home together. The process was seemingly very daunting, especially in this highly completive market. Ed's extensive experience with the NJ market made this complicated process go as smoothly as possible. He was there to answer all of our questions and keep us on track to close quickly. Ed was an absolute pleasure to work with. We would recommend him to anyone looking to purchase a home! read more

Ed Verdel is the best real estate broker we have had in our 20 years of buying and selling properties in New Jersey, New York and Florida. He is professional, very responsive and diligent in finding properties that met our criteria. He did not try to push properties on us and was patient in finding the property that perfectly suited our needs. He is also a very strong negotiator and saved us hundreds of thousands of dollars on a property that appraised for far more than what we paid. We can't say enough good things about Ed and we most highly recommend him. read more

Verdel Real Estate is amazing! Ed Verdel helped me to both buy and sell property in Hoboken. When I purchased my home he was patient, thoughtful and responsive.

I couldn't be happier! read more

We called the Verdel team about a very specific type of home in a small area... and they found it! We knew about it before it went on the general market so we had a chance to strategize about our approach. These guys are really keyed into the Hudson county market. Finally, I was impressed with the honest and professional approach. I recommend them to anyone selling or buying in the area without reservation. read more

We recently worked with Ed in the process of buying our first home. Throughout the entire process Ed was friendly, honest, and easy to work with! He was always available to take our calls and answer our never ending questions, he took us on multiple viewings regardless of day or time and even sent another rep to take us to see a house when our schedules didn't align so that we didn't miss out on the opportunity. Ed is knowledgeable about the market, and kept us in check when our emotions ruled over logic, and at the end of a long search Ed helped us get into our dream home quickly and efficiently! We would recommend him to everyone we know who is looking for their forever home. read more

Ed helped my fiancé and I buy our first home in the very competitive market of Hoboken for a great price. He knows how important it is to be quick in this market so he was always ready to meet with us on short notice. He is also very responsive and always follows up which was the key in attaining our first home. We continue to use Ed as our realtor as we look for a second home because he is such a pleasure to work with. read more

We recently purchased and rented out a two family house in Jersey City with Ed's help, guidance and unwavering commitment to our best interests. With the hot real estate market in J.C., Ed took the helm through our fair share of battles and with his guidance we got exactly what we wanted. During our search he really impressed us with his commitment to finding the right property, and had outstanding knowledge of the area in which we concentrated our search and drew our attention to the pros and cons of each property. Once we zeroed in on the house we wanted to purchase, he went above and beyond what we expected, providing guidance and options in situations we would otherwise have no idea how to address. When we purchased the property, Ed was once again an invaluable resource in helping us list, market and rent out our recent acquisition. Self admittedly, we were not the easiest to deal with and had limited knowledge of the real estate buying process. He made himself available by phone, text and email any time we needed him. His patience and uninhibited drive to help us made this whole adventure a smooth process. Since then, we have recommended him to all of our friends and family. I have no doubt that he'll do right by them as he did by us. All in all, he is a professional and a friend. If you want to work with the best, I would strongly recommend Ed from Verdel Real Estate.

DO NOT WORK WITH JAMES OLIVER OR VERDEL REAL ESTATE. We worked with James for a month. He showed us a place we decided to move forward with. We paid him $50 to submit our applications, signed a lease committing ourselves to over $30k in rent and sent him a check for over $7k. We were all ready to move in and had stopped looking for other places when out of no where he emails us saying 'Hey guys, sorry you actually didn't get the place.' Now our move in process is delayed by months and we've lost $100s . I would NEVER recommend working with James. He is extremely unprofessional and did the opposite of what a good realtor would do. DO NOT WORK WITH JAMES OLIVER OR VERDEL REAL ESTATE. read more

I have referred multiple clients to Ed who are interested learning more about the real estate market in Hudson County. Even if you are not ready to buy or sell he is willing to take the time to walk you through the all the steps involved. When you are ready, he has a network of contacts that will make the whole process run as smooth as possible. read more

Ed is a true professional! He just helped us buy our first home in Jersey City - and he was wonderful throughout the process. He is very thorough - not one property that came on the market that matched our requirements was missed - he made sure he sent us everything (which an A-type like me really appreicates). He was always willing to show us apartments quickly - and his patiance was exhibited tremendously well - as my husband and I worked through the various quirks of things that we couldn't seem to agree on. Work with Ed and you won't be disappointed! read more

Ed helped us buy a 2 bedroom apartment in Jersey City. We were very particular throughout the entire process, but Ed never tired of finding new places for us to see. He was professional, responsive, and incredibly knowledgeable. We would recommend him highly to anyone looking to buy, rent or sell. We can't thank him enough! read more

As a first time homeowner, the entire process of searching and finding a home seemed very complex and intimidating. Without a clue on how to commence my search, I began looking for new apartments on zillow and trulia. I was fortunate enough to come across Ed merely by chance when I found an apartment I was interested in on trulia that he just so happened to be showing. I contacted him like I did several other realtors on the website, Ed was the first to respond and boy was I lucky. His professionalism and knowledge of the area was astounding. Having met with a few realtors before, none of them were as friendly nor did I feel like they genuinely wanted to help me more than Ed did. He showed me the apartment as well as several other similar ones he thought I'd like based on my preferences. That was a year and half ago. As you may know, finding a new place to live does not happen overnight. Nothing on the market at that time really appealed to me, and I started to give up hope in buying a new place. While my own effort to hunt for condos dwindled, Ed's never did. Without even asking, every now and then Ed would send me great deals on listings he thought I'd like. This went on for a months until finally one day Ed sent me an unbelievable deal on a condo I absolutely loved. Without Ed's unyielding dedication and constant effort there is no way in the world I would have the found the apartment I currently live in today. Every question I had about the apartment, the town, as well as its surrounding areas Ed knew like the back of his hand. When choosing to enter the purchasing process, Ed knew top yelp-rated inspectors, attorneys, insurance agents, anybody you would need to help expedite the entire process. When it came to the real estate jargon that I knew very little about, Ed broke it down every step of the way in layman's terms so easily and effortlessly that by the end of the whole process I felt I could be a real estate agent! I would 100% without a doubt recommend Ed to anybody looking to buy or sell a new home. He's by far the most knowledgeable realtor I've met and really cares about whether you're happy with your home as opposed to those other realtors that are just looking to make a sale. Go with Ed Verdel all the way! read more
