"Very helpful, concerned and insightful. Both helped me sell and purchase a home. Was very patient with my idiosyncrasies. She went above and beyond in our search. She offered trusted advice which certainly panned out."
★★★★★
"Jen stuck with us during our over one year search for a home. She was patient and put our wants ahead of what was available on the market. She listened to what we were looking for and truly focused on what our needs/wants were. She provided valuable insight on the best times to buy and her strong knowledge of the neighborhood we were looking to buy in helped us make the best decision! We highly recommend her and would not hesitate to work with her again."

"Jen Donovan is a realtor who listens, is thoughtful in presenting properties and will work tirelessly on your behalf until she has found the perfect home for you. She will steer you away gently when something is not right and will help you think through the pros and cons of a property without pushing you toward one or the other. She is expert in strategies for presenting an offer and negotiating respectfully to get you to closing at a price that takes into account not only market data, but the condition of the home and location. She is above all trustworthy and takes pride in helping her clients find a home that will bring years of joy. My experience with Jen could not have been better and I am so thankful for her help in finding my family our perfect new home. I highly recommend her."

"We knew when we met Jennifer at an open house, that we wanted to work with her. She's warm, informative, down to earth, and a real person who we connected with immediately. She has lived in Ridgewood for years and is raising her daughters there, so she has great practical information about the town, schools, neighborhoods, etc. Jennifer had a great sense of our particular taste and she would never waste our time - she knew we had to drive to the area and only suggested we make the drive when a house was worth seeing. She also had a great sense of the true value of a house and what it would eventually sell for in Ridgewood. She was accommodating when we had our kids in tow. She even had her daughter watch our kids while we toured houses on at least two occasions! Jennifer is great realtor, and if you're looking in Ridgewood, you should contact her."

"Jen helped us find our dream home in the highly competitive Ridgewood housing market! She has a tremendous understanding of the local housing market and a complete pulse of ongoing activity within the area. She was great in understanding our specific needs and we were always confident that she was working in our interest and we liked every property she suggested. Highly recommend!"
