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!

Hi Raquel,

Unfortunately true. I have appraised many 2-family homes in Paterson over the past few months, and the values have fallen in spectacular fashion. There are over 600 2-family properties listed for sale in Paterson right now, many of them short sales and foreclosures. That does not count for-sale-by-owners. There are several years of housing inventory and that is resulting in sharply declining prices. I am seeing the same thing in Newark, Elizabeth, and Jersey City. Homes that sold for $400,000-$500,000 are now sitting on the market listed at $260,000, with no buyers. You might have to decide whether it makes sense to keep paying your mortgage. At some point you might have to decide to ride out the storm and stay where you are, or perhaps sell short, or even walk away from the property. Not a fun time right now in real estate...

Hi Christina,

Ask your agent to interview all the neighbors and obtain a kid inventory. I do it all the time. You can make a better judgement once you know who has what in terms of kids, ages, etc. I recently sold a home to a couple on Hollywood, but there were plenty of kids behind the elementary school they backed up to. If there are really no kids around, that might give me some pause.

Hi Penni,

If you want complete listing sheets of everything that has closed in Ridgewood in the past 3 months, contact me via my profile or website and I'll e-mail them to you. I can also e-mail you the price on 219 Oak as soon as it closes.

If any other readers need a similar report on their town, then same thing, just contact me via my website or profile.

Good luck!

Phyllis,

Contact me via my website or profile and I'll let you know if the house is really pending. Pending data on Trulia may be out of date. And yes, if it is still in attorney review you can still make an offer and have it considered. In fact you can make an offer any time up to closing as a backup offer.
