Month: November 2025

Darren Named Top Agent

I am proud to have been named a top agent on Zillow for the month of October. This marks the 10th consecutive month I’ve been awarded this exclusive designation. When considering selling or buying a home in NJ, work with an agent with a proven track record of success. Whether you’re in the earliest stage of your journey or you’re ready to go, give me a call or send me a private message and we can discuss how I can help. Happy to meet up for coffee to discuss the real estate market. #NJRealtor #JerseyShoreRealEstate #TopAgent #Remax


During the past year, I donated thousands of dollars to a variety of deserving pet rescue charities as part of my commitment to giving back a portion of my commissions to pets in need.  Recently, I also helped an upstart rescue in New Jersey launch their website.  Check out Faith Haven Rescue @ www.faithhavenrescue.org and consider a donation of your own.  During the upcoming year, my commitment continues, so if you are a pet-lover, let’s talk.

October 2025 Market Update

Days on Market (DOM) and Inventory continue to climb significantly in both Monmouth and Ocean Counties further indication of a shifting market. The market is still solidly skewed towards sellers, but all signs point to a market shift towards a more balanced market. If you’re a buyer, it’s time to get out there and shop the growing inventory. If you’re a seller, you need to be sure to price your house according to the new dynamics. Let me know if you’d like to dive into this topic further. I’m here to assist buyers, sellers and investors.

Avoid a Tax Surprise when Selling

When selling real estate, it is critically important to consider the tax implications.  You should always consult with your accountant and/or tax advisor, but here’s also a useful article from CNBC to get you thinking about the topic.  If you are a real estate investor o flipper selling property, you definitely need to consider tax deferral programs such as the 1031 Exchange.  For more information on how to initiate an exchange, please contact me.  I have considerable experience in this area.

My experience spans multiple decades or buying, selling and investing as well as real estate development and restoration.  I also have almost 30 years of sales experience, so when it comes to finding an agent who can best represent sellers as well as know how to be a tough negotiator for buyers, look no further.
