Rafael Ortiz approaches real estate with a mindset shaped long before he ever sold a home: when someone trusts you with one of the biggest decisions of their life, you take full ownership of the outcome.
As a Realtor with Compass and a member of the Kilbride & Cagnina Group, Rafael is known for combining genuine care for his clients with an uncommon work ethic. Easygoing and approachable, he connects naturally with people from all walks of life—but behind the scenes, he brings relentless preparation, detailed follow-through, and a commitment to doing whatever it takes to get the job done right.
That mindset was shaped growing up in a hardworking family of entrepreneurs. Starting at age 15, Rafael worked in his family’s commercial cleaning business, eventually helping manage operations, payroll, systems, and client relationships. Those early lessons in responsibility, service, and accountability now define the way he approaches real estate.
Five years into his career, Rafael has already helped dozens of buyers and sellers successfully navigate the market.
He is also an integral member of the Kilbride & Cagnina Group at Compass, one of New Jersey’s top-performing real estate teams, which closed 392 transactions and $237 million in sales volume in 2025.
Whether negotiating on behalf of a seller or guiding a first-time buyer, Rafael approaches every transaction the same way he learned growing up: work hard, take responsibility, and never stop pushing for the best possible outcome.
