    Testimonial

    First of all, we'd like to extend our heartfelt thanks and appreciation for Jackie's professional handling of the sale of our house. Before entering the market, we didn't realize that there was such a difference among realtors. Our experience with Jackie has changed our view completely. Jackie showed sensitivity and confidence that far exceeded other realtors we had worked with earlier.

    Jackie was very honest, sweet natured and calming.

    She gave us a remarkable presentation about her plan to market, list and sell our home. She understood the ever-changing market, did a detailed market analysis and provided us a folder (with a picture of our house on the cover) containing all materials for different stages of house selling. She advised us how best to present our home to prospective buyers. Once listed on the multiple listing service, she immediately notified others realtors of the listing. She gave our listing great exposure through neighborhood mailings and an online virtual tour, which was invaluable for out-of-town lookers. We are particularly impressed with Jackie's negotiation skills during buyer's offer presentation. She was patient and calm. She spoke softly, but with well-chosen words & full of details/stats. It was obvious that the buyer's agent was impressed as well. We relocated soon after the house went under contract. Jackie ran the rest of home-selling process on our behalf: the inspection, finding handy man/overseeing repairs, pro-actively being present for appraisal, being present for buyer's walkthrough, etc. Everyday she relayed information and feed-back to us. We felt as if we were her only clients because of the many hours and attentions to details she managed to provide. We won't forget our phone calls and her assurance that everything would be all right.

    We highly recommend Jackie. She is a very hardworking/ knowledgeable agent who goes above and beyond to help, and would certainly bring successful results to her clients.

It's said that selling a house ranks near the top of the list of life's most stressful experiences. That's true, but a knowledgeable and capable realtor can make all the difference between smooth sailing and disaster.

Jackie Safran is that Realtor.

It was Jackie's savvy and experience that guided us successfully through the process. Her advice was right-on - every time. She knew how to price the house to get people interested in looking at it. In a tough market for sellers, we had lots of showings and multiple offers, while other houses in our area just sat without any activity. We even got more for our house than we asked for! We hear horror stories from our new neighbors in the active-adult community we moved to and think to ourselves, "Jackie warned us about that. Jackie didn't let that happen to us." We can't say enough good things about Jackie. She knows her business, she works tirelessly on her clients' behalf and is always there to offer reassurance and advice. I can't imagine selling (or buying) a house without the assistance of a realtor, and I can't imagine that realtor being anyone other than Jackie Safran.

When my partner and I first met with Jackie because we were planning to move from New Hope, Pa to the Metuchen area, we had not even sold our house at that point. Little did we know that it would take about 9 more months to sell in Pa so that we could seriously look in NJ.

Throughout that entire time, Jackie worked patiently and professionally with us, providing counseling and occasionally some much needed comic relief when we thought we would never be able to move on with our lives.

Everything worked out very well for us and we are now happily living in a great house in Metuchen, NJ. Jackie’s guidance through the process was outstanding at all times, she made us feel like we were her only clients (even though we knew full well that we were not!). She gave us very personalized attention and carefully advised us when she felt we were headed towards a bad decision.

I have and will continue to recommend Jackie whenever I can and even though I hope never to move again would unquestionably use her professional services again.

As first-time buyers buying a home can be a daunting task.

Jackie Safran was patient and pleasant as she steered us through the process helping us to figure out what it was we were looking for. The house hunting with Jackie turned out to be more enjoyable than we thought it would be, even for my husband. We eventually found a lovely little split level house that we fell in love with and bought.

Every time I see your mailings I smile just thinking of you.  I have to say, Rebecca and I could definitely be your advertising team! We are so happy in our home, and I am so happy that you were OUR realtor!

I always hear people complaining about house-hunting, how arduous and awful… I never thought that we would be able to own a house, and I was very scared of the process of buying one… the mortgage, lawyers, negotiating, etc… You were really knowledgeable and so KIND to us.

If we did not say thank you enough at the time, we would really like to take the opportunity to thank you again now!!  We are so in-love with our home. We are so grateful to you!

Additionally, we are so pleased with all of the other professionals that you recommended to us during our process.

We got everything we were looking for. Kids are very happy, very good schools and excellent neighborhood.

I know it is so late to say thank you to you but perhaps it is never too late!

We are so happy with our house and our neighborhood. We have a great street with lots of kids. They take the bus together and play in the yards after school. Everyone we have met here is friendly and down to earth. This move far exceeded my expectations and I can’t thank you enough for all of your help and guidance getting us here.

What Jackie’s Clients Say

    Reference for terrific Metuchen Realtor If you decide you want to see something in Metuchen (or Central NJ), I highly recommend chatting with Jackie Safran about it.   Kathryn and I were very happy with her help in finding our current home in Metuchen in 2003. She's realistic and sensible, not pushy at all, but very effective at what she does. We've stayed connected with Jackie over the years and recently she has been very helpful giving us advice about current market conditions and how to get our home ready for re-sale. Tom Boyd
  • We have known Jackie since February 2005. She was referred to us by our friends who had very high regards for her. She successfully helped us find and close on our first home in North Edison in 2006.

    Jackie has a very good understanding of the real estate market in central NJ.

    When we started looking, we were looking for a home in the towns of North Edison, Westfield and Scotch Plains. She is very well versed in these towns and extremely familiar with North Edison – to the extent that she provides feedback about streets and neighborhoods that only locals would know. Her knowledge helped us zero in on the neighborhood of our choice.

    She is very well respected by her peers and has a wide network of professionals that she works with. When it was time for closing, Jackie helped us by referring home inspectors, attorneys and mortgage specialists. She provided us with several references for each of them with the pros and cons of working with each of them. While none of these were binding, having the choices definitely helped us. In particular, the home inspector she referred was so good that he was also hired by the sellers of our home.

    All through the home buying process, we found Jackie to be very objective of serving our interests.

    She is patient and we never felt any pressure to buy or make a decision that we were not comfortable with. In other words, she let us find our home. At all times we found her to be prompt and courteous and willing to go the extra yard to help find us information. (when she didn’t have it).
