About Me
Hello,

My name is Marc Paolella, and I am Relocation Director for Century 21 Joe Tekula Realtors in Succasunna, NJ. I am a licensed Realtor as well as a Licensed Appraiser in New Jersey and New York. I am also a member of the ERC (Employee Relocation Council).

I've been in this business for over 20 years and would love to help you! If you have any questions that you want an HONEST answer to, just ask.

As Relocation Director, I specialize in handling the unique and demanding requirements of the corporate transferee. Whether you are relocating into or out of northern New Jersey, I am prepared to make the process as easy as possible. Especially if you are not sure exactly where you want to live and you need the expertise of an agent who has geographic competence in many different areas. Over 20 years and thousands of appraisals, I have amassed experience and knowledge in virtually every community in northern NJ.

Many agents have expertise in a rather small geographical area. Mine includes the following counties in northern New Jersey: Morris, Bergen, Passaic, Essex, Sussex, Union, Hudson, Hunterdon, Somerset, and Warren. If you need information on homes in any of these counties, please do not hesitate to call, text, or e-mail. I maintain a complete data set for the entire region, including zoning maps, deeds, flood maps, tax maps, and MLS access.

I am one of very few agents who is a member of all 3 northern New Jersey MLS systems, including the Garden State MLS, the New Jersey MLS, and the Hudson County MLS.

If you need an excellent buyers agent, interview me for the job. My long and varied experience as a Realtor and professional appraiser will be of great benefit to you when you are trying to figure out an aggressive offering price.

The same holds true if you need expert marketing. Coming up with the correct price is only the beginning. Since 80% of all buyers are searching on the internet, my marketing program is very strong in that area. In addition to the obvious exposure on the MLS and Realtor.com, I will syndicate your home listing to evey major search site, including Googlebase, Yahoo Real Estate, AOL real estate, craigslist, trulia.com, nytimes.com, oodle.com, postlets.com, homescape.com, vast.com, local.com, edgeio.com, house.com, videohomes.com, point2homes.com, zillow.com, and more. In addition, all of my listings are entered into the IDX program. So they will appear on all the various realtor websites such as century21.com, weichert.com, coldwellbanker.com, prudential.com, remax.com, etc. Moreover, I share my listings with over 150 other agents in northern NJ on their individual websites, extending your reach to all their buyers.

This program will be supported by an intense conventional marketing effort featuring all the old stand-bys such as local print advertising, open houses, and agent-to-agent marketing, as well as a yard sign with lighting!

Additionally, each of my listings receive its own individual property website and data center containing up to 100 pictures, video, floor plans, extensive description, Google mapping and satellite imagery, survey, tax map, property disclosure form, lead paint addendums, deed, tax report, flood maps, and more. For a sample, go to http://www.127river.com

And, each of my listings is available on television on Optimum Homes for home searchers using their television to help locate their next home.

All imagery is captured with professional equipment (Canon EOS 5D full-frame) featuring a 16-24mm wide angle lens for the interior photos, which will make everything look big, bright and beautiful. Video is shot with a Sony VX-2000 wide angle DV camera. Photos are edited for print and display using Adobe Photoshop CS3. Videos are edited with Avid Media Composer and/or Adobe Premier Professional.

I also hire a professional stager to make recommendations on presenting your home to its full potential.

We're in a tough market, and your marketing program needs to be aggressive, dynamic and complete. Your home needs to look bigger and better than the competition. I will provide that.

Here is my contact information. Call me anytime day or night to schedule an interview or ask a question!

how is dover as real estate location?

Marc Paolella, Relocation Director/Appraiser answered:
Hi Freund,

Dover does not have many 3 BR townhomes, but you can get a 2BR for $230,000-$300,000 depending on condition, size and features. If you want a printout of all available townhomes in Dover, contact me and I'll e-mail it. Good luck!

how is Dover, New Jersey, as a real estate location?

Marc Paolella, Relocation Director/Appraiser answered:
Hi Freund,

Dover is a popular commuter town in Morris County with a rail station and convenient access to Routes 46, 10 and 80. It's also 10 minutes from Rockaway Mall. If you would like a sample pack of listings in all price ranges in Dover, contact me via my profile and I'll e-mail it. Areas of Dover near the downtown area are semi-urban with lots of multi-families and apartments. The outskirts become more suburban residential with predominantly single family housing.

How do I find a buyers agent? I'm in Central New Jersey.

Marc Paolella, Relocation Director/Appraiser answered:
Hi Wayne,

Don't forget to disclose that you get a substantial fee from this type of referral. The public is largely unaware that friendly referrals are a source of income for the referring agent.

Hi Maribeth,

You can start online here at Trulia. For some top agents in New Jersey who participate on Trulia, here is a link:

http://www.trulia.com/voices/leaderboard/New_Jersey-32/

Just by posting what you did, several agents will chime in here who will be happy to work with you. Pick a few and arrange to have them stop by your home for an interview.

I would have a few minimum requirements before I would interview anyone:

1) At least 5 years in the business
2) Full time not part time

Beyond that, a lot of it will come down to "chemistry". Don't be afraid to be demanding. Your agent is here to serve you, not the other way around.

If you have any "tough" questions that you want honest answers to, contact me via my website. I do not work in your area but can answer any general real estate agency questions you might have.

Good luck! - Thu Feb 28 2008, 09:37

What are the pros and cons of moving to West Orange?

Marc Paolella, Relocation Director/Appraiser answered:
Hi James, welcome to Trulia. Before you answer a question, check the date. This one was asked and answered eons ago. - Tue Jul 22 2008, 14:23
Hi Damien,

In your price range you are going to be balancing location versus condition/age. If you look in Newark or Belleville, you might get a really young unit, but the area is going to be of more urban character. If you look in higher priced areas like the Caldwells, Roseland, or South Orange, you will most likely be looking at a somewhat older unit. (20 years plus). West Orange provides a nice middle ground, where you can get a fairly young unit in a suburban location. There is also a decent selection to choose from due to the fact that there were so many built.

I would personally not buy a conventional frame-construction townhouse that is 20 plus years old. In all honesty, condominiums townhomes are generally not of extremely high construction quality. Once you get to 20 years old, you are going to be looking at replacing furnaces, appliances, windows, water heaters, A/C compressors, and glass sliding doors. Not to mention special assessments to replace/repair the roof, pool, roads, sidewalks, and other common elements.

Therefore I would favor a younger unit, but in a less congested area. West Orange and Nutley are good examples of towns in Essex County where you are going to get a good balance between age/condition and location.

Contact me and we'll go look! - Mon Mar 10 2008, 15:01
