What My Clients Have To Say

Colleen has been a consistent rock throughout a complex, and at times challenging, international relocation. While we met several great realtors, Colleen’s warmth, and her commitment on making our move as seamless as possible stood out immediately. Having experienced international relocations herself, she truly understood the road ahead and was empathetic to our concerns. Over an extended period involving numerous video tours, conversations, and eventually transatlantic trips to view homes, we found our ‘home’. From that moment on, Colleen went above and beyond in every aspect of the home-buying process and guided us wonderfully. Always willing to advise and help us navigate more personal aspects of the m…
Colleen has been a consistent rock throughout a complex, and at times challenging, international relocation. While we met several great realtors, Colleen’s warmth, and her commitment on making our move as seamless as possible stood out immediately. Having experienced international relocations herself, she truly understood the road ahead and was empathetic to our concerns. Over an extended period involving numerous video tours, conversations, and eventually transatlantic trips to view homes, we found our ‘home’. From that moment on, Colleen went above and beyond in every aspect of the home-buying process and guided us wonderfully. Always willing to advise and help us navigate more personal aspects of the move, many of which were well beyond her scope, nothing was ever too much trouble. Ultimately, after several months, we closed on our little place and now look forward to building many happy memories there in the years to come. Colleen has not only helped make those memories possible already, but we’re pleased to say she’ll be part of them in the future, as we feel honored to count her as a dear friend.
Moving to South Jersey from Overseas with Ease!
Colleen helped us through the unique experience of buying a home from a different state. She spent her entire Saturday driving through multiple towns to help us find the location and neighborhood we were looking for. She went above and beyond to navigate the intricacies of moving across the country and we absolutely could not have done it without her.
Relocating From Across The Country
Colleen was recommended to us by a friend, and we can’t wait to recommend her to all of our other friends. Our experience with Colleen was extraordinary. She was patient and took the time to educate us and to show us around every neighborhood in our area. She was knowledgeable and had our best interest in mind. She was not pushy, and gave us honest opinions about homes, both positive and negative.
Educating Clients About South Jersey Neighborhoods
Colleen has an incredibly intimate knowledge of Haddonfield and the surrounding areas, and simply and patiently walked us through each step of the home-buying process. It was truly a competitive edge in a tight housing market to have her insights and experience.
Competitive Edge in Tough Market
Her talent and work ethic are unmatched, but what’s most impressive is how much she cared throughout the elongated experience. That empathy is quite rare in today’s hustle and bustle and is a priceless trait to have on your side when buying in a challenging market.
Cares for Her Clients
When our family was presented with a new, out of state job opportunity, we immediately reached out to Colleen. We knew she was the one to help us navigate this huge life change. Colleen gives you her all, every day. When we had a question, Colleen was there. When we needed a contact for a home improvement project before listing, Colleen had our back. We could call, text, or email anytime. She is prompt, meticulous, and caring. From start to finish, our experience with selling our home was nearly flawless.
Gives You Her All, Everyday
She provided strength, reason, direction, and even some comical relief. She will undoubtedly lead you to where you want to be and understand the journey of getting you home.
Understands the Journey of Getting You Home
Colleen was our third realtor and we are so lucky to have found her. From start to finish she was professional, knowledgeable, and more importantly, caring. She understood our unique situation and went above and beyond to assist us and give us advice and guidance. Where others had promised, Colleen delivered! After only one weekend on the market our home was sold and shortly thereafter, Colleen helped us to find and purchase our new home.
Where Others Promised, Colleen Delivered! From Across The Country
Colleen was a superior educator, advisor, and expert in all things real estate. As first-time home buyers, Colleen walked us through the process and taught us what to look for when viewing a property, what questions to ask, how to shape an offer, and what to watch for during our inspection. Colleen has a clear passion for teaching her clients.

Meet Colleen

“I have been in South Jersey and The Greater Philadelphia Area for the majority of my life. I was born and raised in Moorestown, and after college (and a quick stint in Philadelphia) moved to Haddonfield where I taught at Haddonfield Middle School for almost nine years while devoting many years to coaching the girl’s soccer team at Haddonfield Memorial High School. I love South Jersey so much that I am proudly raising my three sons here. I am ingrained in our local communities serving as the PTA President at an elementary school, on the board of the Haddonfield Japanese Exchange program, volunteering and sponsoring our local athletics, academics, and highlighting all of our local businesses.

Home is more than just a house; which is why educating my clients about the communities is just as important in the overall process. I am the neighborhood guru and local expert on all things South Jersey. As a buyer relocating to the area, I am your tactical secret weapon, ensuring you have a deeper understanding of all the subtleties of each individual neighborhood and town. As a seller, I add a ton of value by properly highlighting and marketing all that your home and neighborhood has to offer to potential buyers.”
