Heidy DeMarco
I have spent 15 years helping homeowners across Passaic, Essex and Bergen County sell for top dollar. Every one of my sellers has closed above asking price.
I work with transparency and data. Two things decide most sales: the price the home hits the market at, and how many buyers see it in the first week. I price against what similar homes actually closed for, then build the exposure that gets your home looked at while it is still new.
