We've helped many happy clients sell their homes for the highest price achievable as quickly as possible. Similarly, we've helped many buyers find their new homes too! Explore a selection of our recently closed (2025, and prior years) listings and sales below, and reviews and stories from some of our clients.
When the owner was ready to downsize, and retire to Florida, they reached out to us to answer their questions, and to guide them through the process.
"Welcome to a coastal masterpiece that offers bay and sunset views, a private dock (with room for boats large and small), and the best of indoor and outdoor living. Enjoy sun-soaked afternoons on the waterfront deck, entertaining in the gourmet kitchen, as well as the peace and quiet of the primary suite with its secluded balcony. With timeless architectural details, premium finishes, and private, guarded ''South Beach'' a short walk away, this home offers the relaxed charm of coastal living. Conveniently located between the centers of Mantoloking and Bay Head, to enjoy all that those towns have to offer."
Ed did a fantastic job selling my father’s house. It was a very tough time as it was an estate sale and I was out of state.
He helped in so many ways going above and beyond just showing the house.

An elderly relative had passed away, and it was time to sell. The heirs interviewed several agents, and chose us to help market and sell the home that they had grown up in.
"Life at 50 Bridge Avenue is Special! Enjoy a short walk to the beach to see the sunrise, stroll by Mueller's to pick up crumb cake and coffee, then sit on your front porch to watch Bay Head come to life, and savor the summer breezes... After a dip in the ocean, and maybe lunch, is it time to relax on the porch again, go for a walk, or sit on the rear deck? What about dinner? Perhaps walk to one of the local restaurants or stay home and grill out... After dinner, the choices continue - walk around the corner to Twilight Lake to watch the sunset, sip a glass of wine on the porch, or play a game on the second story screened porch... Come see for yourself, and build your memories and stories here... "
It was time to downsize, and in this case, move to Bay Point Harbour. We have known this family for years, and when ready for their next move, they decided to work with us.
"Oceanfront: Nestled in the heart of Mantoloking, this classic oceanfront home offers both privacy and convenience, a short walk from the center of town. There are spectacular panoramic ocean views from multiple levels, including the oceanfront decks, as well as the seclusion and comfort of the rear deck, patio, pool and cabana. Inside, the spacious living room offers remarkable ocean views, and the enclosed side porch opens onto a sheltered deck, with the dune deck overlooking the ocean. On the second and third floors, many bedrooms, including the primary suite, offer sweeping ocean views as well."
We first met this client decades ago, when she bought one of our listings. We established a collegial relationship, and kept in touch. When the time came to sell (and to buy), there was only one name on her list - ours.
"Welcome to this custom coastal retreat in sought-after Mantoloking. 1039 Barnegat Lane offers a comfortable and functional design, spacious living, and water views. Enjoy an open-concept floor plan, gourmet kitchen, and sun-drenched living areas perfect for entertaining, including a covered front porch. The thoughtful design includes a first floor bedroom suite for those who may need it. The backyard is a private oasis featuring a sparkling pool, lush landscaping, and plenty of space to relax. Moments from the guarded beach, and conveniently located to enjoy all that Mantoloking and Bay Head have to offer — coastal living at its finest."
We known this client for our entire lives! When they decided that three homes to manage was one to many, they reached out to us to help resolve that issue. Now, a new young family will enjoy and make memories here, as the previous owners did with their children and grand children.
"Experience timeless coastal living at 1559 Ocean Avenue, Mantoloking. This classic oceanfront home offers sweeping panoramic views, an open floor plan ideal for entertaining, and multiple outdoor living spaces to take in the sea breeze. Enjoy a large in-ground pool just steps from the sand—your perfect beachfront retreat. This home rests on an oversized lot of 110 x 385 feet, and is located at one of the highest points in Mantoloking."
We first met this client when they inquired about another listing of ours, but when 978 East Avenue came on the market, they were ready! It was a competitive, multiple offer situation, but in the end, with some creative strategy, we one!
"East Avenue, aka The Healthy Highway in Mantoloking. Imagine waking up and walking across the street to catch the sun rise right out of the ocean! Mornings could begin with a tranquil jog, bike ride, or walk along the barrier island's scenic route, breathing in the fresh, salty air. Every room is sun drenched with massive amounts of light. Three bedrooms and 3 and a half bathrooms are waiting for you to bring her back to her glory or make it into the beach getaway that you have been looking for." (caption from listing)
Ed was the best! Buying a home can be stressful but his expertise and knowledge of market (along with his calm demeanor) made our purchase seamless. I would give him our highest recommendation.

This young family enjoyed summer rentals in Bay Head and Mantoloking each summer, for several years, while we kept a close eye on the market, looking at a small number of homes during that time. When the right home became available, we were ready! The closing process went smoothly, and they have now enjoyed their first summer in their new beach house!
My family and I were very fortunate to use Ed to sell our family's long time shore house. Ed utilized his vast experience and knowledge of the market to price and market our home to generate multiple above list offers. Throughout the process, Ed was always accessible, and responsive to all of our questions. Ed also helped us purchase a replacement property. Again, Ed was a pleasure to work with and made the entire process seamless.

After their mother passed away, the adult children decided to sell her home in Bay Head. Their aunt, a friend and client of ours, referred them to us to help them through the process. A carefully thought out pricing strategy allowed the home to sell for more than $150,000 over the asking price, with multiple cash offers. The transaction progressed smoothly, with minimal delay.
We sold our mother's house with Suzie and Ed. Even before we signed, Ed gave us great advice to get it ready. When it came time to sell, he got us more than our Zillow estimate and more than our list price. We were so happy with them both, and we highly recommend them for others.

Our clients have enjoyed renting in Bay Head and Mantoloking for many summers. Over the years, they toured a number of homes with us too, but none of them were quite right! We, and they, were patient, and now they are enjoying their new oceanfront home with their family!
A client of ours lost her beachfront home in Superstorm Sandy, and ever since, has been eager to return to the Bay Head and Mantoloking area. Working with her daughter, we helped the two of them find the perfect place to call home at Bay Point Harbour. A third floor Harbour House, with incredible water views from almost every window! "Mom" is very excited, as "daughter." It was a lot of fun to work with them during their search, and to help guide them through the process!
Ed is AMAZING. He spent countless hours helping me find a home to rent last summer that satisfied the many requirements I was looking for. Then, he helped my 83 year old mom find and purchase her dream home. He walked us each through every minor and major step of the process. I could not recommend Ed more highly. He is a real estate expert and a kind person, to boot. You will thoroughly enjoy working with Ed.

When our clients were ready to move on from their home of nearly 20 years, they asked a friend which REALTORS® to work with to sell their home... Happily, that friend is an acquaintance of ours, and though they know many REALTORS®, they recommended us. 1100 Marcia Avenue received multiple offers, and sold for more than the original asking price!
Our clients recently sold a long-time family home, and while they wanted to downsize and simplify, they did not want to leave the area entirely. After a relatively brief search, together, we found the right home for them! Now, they are off to the next chapter!
Suzie and Ed are outstanding professionals. They are also outstanding people. Both know the New Jersey shore area thoroughly, have years of experience in representing both buyers and sellers in the market, know the go-to professionals for specific needs and have their customers always at the center of their efforts . On behalf of the La Voy family, we can't recommend Suzie and Ed highly enough. They treated selling the family Bay Head house with the utmost sensitivity and professionalism. We will miss them. They are those kinds of people.
