The Folk Agency is so unlike the others out there. It is not a big, impersonal office that is only focused on closing the deal to get the commission. It is the exact opposite. Each agent puts the clients’ needs above all else.

Thank you, Tim, for helping my wife and I sell our home. There were many issues that were unique to our property, especially the lack of comps on the waterfront in our area. Your experience with the area really came through for us.

We're hometown experts.

Let's get your house sold.

Here's how we provide unparalleled value:

We know our comps.

Our comps come from firsthand knowledge. Unlike those generated by computer algorithms, we have real-world, in-depth knowledge of neighborhoods, specialty upgrades, lifestyle, and custom additions.

Get the best price for your home.

Our clients get boutique-level service.

We cap our number of clients so we can take excellent care of each and every one, just like we’d expect for ourselves. That means you won’t be hassling with automated call systems or leaving messages that don’t get answered — we respond promptly every time.

We never leave you in the dark.

Spot-on pricing wins the day.

We craft an accurate comparative market analysis for your home that represents the shore area’s premium lifestyle, community, culture, and ambiance – not just the size and style of your home.

The right price creates the right buzz.

Don't sell yourself short — you deserve a sale
that represents the true worth of your home.

Not all real estate agencies are equal —

We've been a family owned business in Brielle for over 100 years.

Brielle and our local surrounding towns have our heart. We care deeply about her people, which means we’re committed to helping your selling process be smooth and your sale be top-value.

It can be stressful to put a house on the market. We understand, and we’re not satisfied until you’re handing over the keys with a big smile and no regrets!

We can't wait to meet you.

You might still be wondering...

As an independent, locally owned, boutique firm, is your commission higher?

Not necessarily; even with a high level of personal service and local experience, we remain competitive, plus commissions are negotiable. We're committed to providing excellent value, and local residents have trusted us time and again since 1920 as the savvy choice for selling their homes for top value. We'd love to talk over any questions you have, simply contact us for a personalized quote.

What's the role of technology in real estate today? As a smaller firm, how do you compete?

We're not looking to compete with the technology of franchises and mega firms because it's designed to save money by replacing personal service. It also uses algorithms and averages to generate local home valuation to compensate for a lack of local experience and expertise.

How important is global reach in marketing. What reach does your firm have?

National and international real estate conglomerates market what they have to compensate for the critically important thing that they don’t have — connections, experience, and expertise in the local real estate marketplace. All real estate is local, and local knowledge is necessary to sell for full value.

Should I list high so I have room to negotiate? I can always come down, but I can’t go up.

The best strategy for ending up with the highest selling price is accurate and strategic pricing from day one. This increases the amount of active showings, which generate market buzz and a competitive climate to create a more timely and higher-priced sale. It's actually easier to negotiate up rather than down.

What are the most important things for me to do before I put my home on the market?

How do I get an accurate estimate of my home’s true value?

Getting a local expert who is familiar with the homes in the area and can spot what makes your home unique means you won't be leaving any value to chance.

It can be a costly mistake to trust a tech firm’s AVM (automated valuation model) because it's based on automated computer modeling from public records that don't include important value added by a home’s individual uniqueness in design, condition, decor, location, view, landscaping, etc.

How can I better protect the equity in my home?

For the most accurate estimate, contact us to receive a free custom CMA (comparable market analysis) prepared by one of our local residential real estate agents. This report ensures you won't sell yourself short. Instead, you’ll be well-informed with a clear understanding of competition properties, local market trends, and relevant recent sales.

Move on without hassle.

Celebrate a smooth process from start to finish.
