My wife and I were looking to buy our first home at almost the peak of New Jersey's housing market frenzy. It was (and still is) a seller's market and we were having a tough time finding a reasonable "starter" home. Our agent at Weichert Realtors in Chatham specialized in helping people find their first home, despite the fact that she could make larger commissions on selling larger and more expensive homes. She helped us select the perfect house which was out of our price range until she helped us negotiate with the sellers a price that we could afford. Without her expertise, we would not have this dream house (and dream asset).
