A Note from Barti

Twenty years of quiet, deliberate work on the back roads of Somerset County.

I came to real estate the long way — through property management, then appraisal, then brokerage. What I learned is that most agents sell speed. I sell patience. A home is the largest decision most families will make in a decade, and the role of an agent is to slow the process down until every question has been answered properly.

My practice covers Hillsborough Township, Belle Mead, and the surrounding corridors of Somerset County. I work with a small number of clients at any given time, which is the only way I know to do this work honestly.

What We Do

Four lines of work, each given its full weight.

Every engagement is handled directly — no junior associates, no call centers, no referral chains. The person you first speak with is the person who sees the work through to closing.

01

Residential Sales

Pricing strategy, staging consultation, professional photography, and a measured marketing rollout across the Garden State MLS and Coldwell Banker's global network. Held until closing, not just until listing.

From $4,950 flat · Listings $400K+
02

Property Rentals

Tenant placement for single-family homes and townhomes across Hillsborough, Montgomery, and Franklin. Full credit and reference screening, lease drafting under New Jersey statute, and ongoing management if required.

75% of first month's rent
03

Home Valuations

A comparative market analysis grounded in thirty days of Somerset County comparable sales, not national averages. Delivered as a written report with a defensible price range, suitable for estate, divorce, or pre-listing use.

Complimentary · 48-hour turnaround
04

Advisory & Strategy

Hourly consultation for buyers evaluating off-market opportunities, homeowners considering pre-listing improvements, and investors underwriting small residential portfolios in the Route 206 corridor.

$275 per hour · 90-minute minimum

How We Work

A measured sequence, never rushed.

From the first phone call to the closing table, every engagement follows the same four movements — refined over twenty-two years and hundreds of transactions across central New Jersey.

i.

Consultation

A 60-minute conversation at the property or our Hillsborough office. We listen first — to timing, to constraints, to what the next chapter looks like.

ii.

Strategy

Within five business days you receive a written pricing strategy, a marketing timeline, and a candid assessment of what the market will and will not reward.

iii.

Execution

Photography, MLS syndication, broker tours, and private showings. You receive a written update every Friday — not a text when asked.

iv.

Closing

Negotiation through attorney review, inspection response, and final walk-through. We attend your closing in person — every time, without exception.

The Question of Cost

Plainly stated, with no surprises at closing.

Commission is the question every client wants to ask and too few do. Here is the full structure before we ever meet — printed, signed, and held to. No tiered packages, no marketing add-ons, no last-minute fees. One rate, one agreement, one signature.

All figures represent the total commission paid at closing, split between listing and buyer's brokerage per the MLS agreement. New Jersey statute governs all residential transactions.
