About Deborah

It all started when I was 16 years old, my teacher had us do a group discussion on our future goals, and the first thing that came to mind was to be a real estate agent. I never knew much about the industry, but after seeing the process of the sale of my parent's home and our move, and how important each part of the ordeal was for both myself and them, I knew it was something that I wanted to be a part of. Of course, I pursued real estate for over 15 years now. It's been my passion for as long as I can remember.
I can sit here and tell you I have strong negotiating skills, local market knowledge, and so forth – and of course, I do – but one thing I want to share with you, the idea that is the most important tool I can provide you in your home sale or purchase is my passion. I didn't get into the industry to make money. I got into the industry because I fell in love with it. I fell in love with homes, the character each one had, and the beautiful people I got to help transition from one to another. I fell in love with hearing people's stories, really getting to know their needs for their futures, and focusing on ensuring you found a home that met those future goals. Real estate can be a stressful thing, moving out of a house you've known for years can be hard, and it can be harder if you don't have someone to partner with who doesn't take the time to understand that.
My business goes beyond the professionalism I can bring to the table, my years of knowledge about our local market and communities, and past the number of sales I've made thus far. Instead, it prioritizes you. How much can you afford? What motivates your move? What do you HAVE to have to make this big transition in your life? You need a real estate agent who understands that and seeks to know the answer to those questions and all of the other important ones that make buying and selling a reality for you. Let's grab coffee or lunch, on me, and we'll talk about your real estate goals. I'll get to know your needs, I'll share the fantastic experience I can provide, and we'll make sure your next move is in the right direction. You don't need a computer to find your dream house; you need a professional partner who has your best interest at heart from the moment you call to even after we close. I'm doing more than just selling houses in New Jersey; I'm helping you bring your dream home to life.

Deborah is an amazing person all around, a true professional as an agent she goes above and beyond! Deborah is an amazing person all around, a true professional as an agent she goes above and beyond with 100% dedication. My wife and I bought a house a few years ago, and we liked Deborah so much we asked her to sell our other property, which needed rezoning! To cut the story short, Deborah stuck with us through this very arduous process and helped us much more than the attorney I had hired...dealing with the city and municipality countless hours and phone calls, chasing different departments (really going above and beyond) to get the rezoning finalized. We finally sold our property not too long ago, more than asking price, and we are working with Deborah again for a possible investment property. Debora is not your typical agent, no one will work harder and advocate for you than her.

Fantastic experience with Deborah! My husband and I had an enjoyable and effortless experience working with Deborah. She was referred by friends who had just worked with her to purchase their dream house, so we knew we were in good hands, but Deborah still exceeded our expectations. Her knowledge of the bigger real estate landscape coupled with her specific local intel makes her an essential partner for anyone buying a house in the NJ areas she services.

What really sets her apart is her wealth of knowledge on houses and property - she sees things that other agents (or even inspectors!) might miss, and this allows her to give a highly informed opinion. We trusted her guidance at every turn, and she took the time to understand what was most important to us and find us the perfect home. We couldn't recommend her more highly!

Deborah was exceptional in her assistance to us in our selling our home from the beginning to end - from her knowledge of the market, appropriate asking price point, negotiations, suggestions for repairs in the home to make, references for subbing out jobs, and help to us in preparing the house itself, and closing. She was involved and she was always available and responsive to our inquiries. Deborah Citarella has our HIGHEST recommendation!
