First of all - I recommend Wedly and I’m sure you would be happy like us with his service.
Now the details - Wedly assisted us through out the process of finding us a great rental apartment in a wonderful community in NJ. We were looking for a good apartment for rent and we were not sure what to expect from our would be destination but luckily Wedly filled in the gap for us and showed us some great properties to choose from. He was punctual, showed us what we wanted, gave us good suggestions and listened to our concerns patiently. It so happened that we changed our mind at a point where we almost signed the lease agreement for one apartment and wanted to go for another which we liked more. Wedly heard us patiently, respected our decision and cleverly worked out the way to finalize the apartment of our choice! He was available whenever I needed his help and we are very happy now after finding the rental apartment we liked!

Keven made our selling of our house smooth and transparent every step of the way. He laid out a strategy and timeline for our sales process and met every one of the milestones in excess of our expectations. His tenacious advocation on our behalf resulted in us getting multiple over-asking offers within just one week of putting our house on the market. He continued to drive the contracting and closing process through to the end in a stress-free manner making our selling experience a pleasurable event. His attention to details and sincere focus on our interests throughout was second to none. We highly recommend him.

Doug was a fantastic realtor during a very difficult time for my family - while selling the home of my mom who passed away earlier this year. He made the process seamless for us and everything went very smooth. We had a solid offer within 3 days of listing and everything moved as quickly as we were hoping, but he was also able to help accommodate us when we needed a little extra time as well. I couldn’t recommend Doug enough!

Wedly did an excellent job in helping my wife and I navigate the home selling process. His market research was excellent and he was always quick to respond to us or follow up on any questions that we had. He made sure everyone was on the same page, keeping the communication smooth between us and the buyer. Overall we appreciate Wedly for simplifying the whole process and we are grateful for that. Highly recommend Wedly for your real estate needs!

Will go to Lisa every time!

You absolutely cannot go wrong house hunting with Steve. As new home buyers my wife and I were at the mercy of the market. Steve not only walked us through many of the potential pitfalls but helped us to understand the good, and bad, of various locations and housing options.
He was not only friendly and responsive but informative and, sometimes, brutally honest.
I cannot recommend him enough if you're in the market for a new home.

I'm so glad that I got John Dodds as my realtor. He did a virtual open house during the coronavirus quarantine and it was beautiful. He also did an open house once he was able, again due to the quarantine. He got my house sold for me.

We ended up assigned to Doug through the Home Advantage program through our lender. We are so thankful that we were paired with him. From the very beginning, we knew that he was on our team. Doug worked seamlessly with our attorney's office to help us fight for our dream home. In this difficult buyer's market, he helped ease our nerves when it got tough. He truly cares about his clients.
I will be recommending Doug to any family and friends looking for a real estate agent.

Wedly is the consummate realtor. He is completely reliable, dependable and provides stellar customer service. We are downsizing and moving to a part of NJ that we are not familiar with. Wedly was the ONLY realtor to return our calls and actively looked for a new place for us to live. He answered every text, email and phone call that we had & really spent time looking for the perfect place for us. It's been so hard uprooting ourselves after 30 years and moving to a brand new location, but Wedly made the process so seamless and easy. I whole-heartedly recommend him as a realtor....but even more so as a caring person you can rely on to help you find a new home.

As buyers in these unprecedented markets, we've learned the significant benefit of an agent that has the experience, knowledge and the strategic mindset to be a differentiator. Barbara was that differentiator for us. She listened purposefully and engaged us in candid discussions enabling for us to develop our "check list" of criteria. Barbara found us the perfect house and advised us well from contract offering through closing. She quickly gathered relevant information, collaborated with the seller's agent and landed us the home of our dreams without overpaying in the current sellers market. Thank you, Barbara. We could not have done this without you!!!

We’ve had the pleasure of working with Doug for the past two years as we searched for our first home in an incredibly competitive market. Throughout the entire journey, Doug was patient, persistent, and genuinely committed to helping us find the perfect place—and we did! Right where we wanted to be.
What stood out most was that we never felt pressured to compromise on what mattered to us. Doug respected our vision and supported us every step of the way. His wealth of knowledge, calm guidance, and unwavering support made a stressful process feel manageable and even exciting.
We’re so grateful for Doug’s dedication and couldn’t recommend him more highly to anyone looking for a realtor who truly puts their clients first.

Lisa Wood was very helpful and active in helping me find my current (and previous) apartment. She understood my needs, and really went above and beyond what I would have expected. Lisa Wood was helpful every step of the way, and was very honest and trustworthy too. I would highly recommend her, and she will be the person I go to when I need to find a new place.

You can’t find a better realtor. Wedly is devoted and sincerely passionate about finding his clients the perfect home. Even though I had given up in this insane market for buyers, Wedly kept looking out for me. Because he went above and beyond for me (and was patient even though I had given up), I was able to buy the perfect home. If he wasn’t my agent, I wouldn’t have my perfect home right now. Also, he is very professional, friendly, and communicative. He treated me like family and he will treat you the same.

So... this is an update on my previous review. My husband and I met Wedly two years ago while looking for a new home. We had such a great experience working with Wedly. He took all our requests seriously,. always showed up on time, and always on our side during the whole process. Since we had such a great experience, we decided to ask him for help again when we decided to move to a calmer town. We always kept in touch tho. Wedly became a friend to us. He found a perfect place for us in a safe and quiet town. He really pays attention to your needs. He even welcomed us to our new home with a "Welcome home card" and a little gift. We love Wedly and I truly recommend him to anyone. He's a great realtor and a friend.

It was a great opportunity to meet Douglas. With his smile and positive attitude, he quickly understood what we were looking for and made it easy for all parties to reach a deal.
Doug is now a good friend and is someone who you could rely on in many fields beyond real estate activities.
Thank you very much, Doug!

Friendly and out going Steve was exactly what my wife and I were looking for in a realty agent.
He wasted no time in setting us up with new listings on a daily basis and was very responsive when we asked to view a property.
Steve was not only informative but also honest when it came to the ups and downs of properties. I feel that we were able to avoid many potential pitfalls as new home buyers by dealing with Steve.
I recommend him wholeheartedly.
