Linda & Bob Conklin

"Marissa has been extremely helpful and is very knowledgeable. We purchased two rental townhouses, and have always felt confident we were in the right hands. She is reliable, prompt, responsive and also fun to work with."

Gaspare S.

 "The best realtor I have ever worked with. On top of everything, she is great at what she does. I would recommend her very highly. Thank you for all your help."

Tony C.

"Great experience. Marissa has a lot of knowledge and the approach she recommended (price, staging and listing avenues) led to a way quicker than average sale time for homes in my area. Very accessible and communicated very well through every point of the process. Would highly recommend Marissa for both the buying and selling of a home!"

Kerry L.

"Marissa's marketing sold my house in 2 weeks. We had a good amount of foot traffic come through which lead to a buyer. Marissa was always available when I had questions and helped get me in contact with a buyers agent for my new purchase out of state."  

Pat H.

 "Marissa is one of the nicest young ladies that we've ever met. Whever I called her with a question or a request, she acted on it immediately. She was a wonderful person to work with, nothing was too small or too big for her to handle. I would recommend her to anyone who is interested in buying or seling, this gal knows her "stuff."

Elena C.

"Marissa was available for me at every step of the sale. She answered my text messages, emails and phone calls in an appropriate amount of time. She was very professional in all aspects, and I know I would not have proceeded with the sale without her constant positive and continuous support. She suggested professionals for jobs that needed completion, and all those recommendations addressed my needs.
Marissa was recommended by a friend and I would recommend her to anyone selling their home. When I am ready to move into a new home, she will be the realtor I will call on."

Laura Pople, Executive Director and Founder, Seer Farms

"Friendly. Interested. Persevering. Committed. If pushed to identify what characteristics I think are important for a real estate agent to have, these would top my list. But frankly, until 2 years ago I didn't even have an opinion on the matter. At that point, as I began the process of establishing a non-profit animal sanctuary in New Jersey - the first of its kind to serve the animals of families in crisis - I was unexpectedly joined in my endeavor by a surprising partner...the most friendly, interested, persevering, committed partner I could imagine. Marissa Ferrari, my real estate agent. I didn't even know I needed a real estate agent until a few of my timid inquiries into suitable properties were answered with what I would learn was typical Marissa enthusiasm.. As I have since discovered she proceeds with everything she does, Marissa listened to my needs, formulated a plan of attack, and became a valuable ally in our efforts to find the perfect location for Seer Farms. What I found most incredible about Marissa is that she really does build the lifetime relationships with her clients that one hopes a real estate agent would do. Since closing on the property, she has checked in regularly and has provided valuable assistance, well above what might reasonably be expected of someone in her role. I can't believe there is anyone better at what she does anywhere and she will always be my go to person in matters of real estate."

Jake F.

 "Marissa educated me about what to look for when searching for a home. When she helped me buy my first house, her professionalism and market knowledge was evident. I knew I was in good hands the moment I called her. I know going forward when I want to purchase again, she is the person I am going to call."

Megan Buffa

 "After firing 4 other realtors for their lack of knowledge in real estate, we were referred to Marissa by Scott Alter. Marissa went above and beyond for us. We have both bought and sold homes using her. Marissa has phenomenal customer service skills. Her drive and knowledge is second to none. We highly recommend her."

Bernadette F.

 "Marissa handled the sale and rental of our properties. She was extremely professional. She brought in many realtors and fully explained and negotiated our properties. Marissa is a pleasure to work with!" 

Brian F.

 "What a great experience. It was a pleasure to have her as my realtor. She showed me all the comps in the area so I could give the best bid. When she presented my bid she also gave me a detailed list of why I was bidding that price. I also told her I want to close fast and she made that happen in less then two months. Thank you Marissa for all the hard work you did for me and my family."

Eileen & Bob

"Marissa was a neighbor of mine in Jackson whom I met when she was just a youngster. I have watched her mature through the years, kept in touch with her while she was attending Rutgers University and when she started her real estate agent career. Coming from the corporate world, I have worked with and managed some highly talented young adults, who primarily attended the top Ivy League schools. Although Marissa did not attend an Ivy League school, her intelligence, ability to articulate, energy level, enthusiasm and people skills are at the same level as these Ivy Leaguers or even higher. Marissa undoubtedly excels in her professionalism and always has a positive attitude.
When we decided to sell our large home in Jackson, we initially worked with two other real estate agents who did not make a true effort and did not accomplish what we set out for them to do - sell our house. Although the market was extremely difficult, we felt that they did not meet our expectations in trying to show or market our home. When our second real estate agent's contract expired, Marissa contacted me and said she wanted to sell my house. I was extremely impressed with her ambitious, assertive and helpful approach. My husband was a little skeptical to hire Marissa at first because of her age and minimal experience level. He grilled her with questions, which she answered with poise, and then agreed with me to hire her. Well, needless to say, to work with Marissa as our real estate agent was a true pleasure. She had several open houses and received two bids with two months.
Marissa did not only sell our home, but she assisted us with all the documentation, dealing with the building department and township, and in getting permits. She referred us to a real estate lawyer, fireplace inspector, and well water analyzer. All her referrals were a pleasure to deal with and were professional and efficient.
We would recommend Marissa Ferrari to anyone who is thinking about selling their home. She knows the market extremely well, knows the players in the real estate market, and has an in-depth knowledge of the entire real estate process despite her age. You could not choose a better real estate agent in our view.
If anyone wishes to discuss Marissa's expertise in greater detail, my husband or I, or both of us, would be more than happy to spend the time given the time and attention she gave to us as her client!"

Donna Carrera

"Last year, Marissa Ferrari sold my house in Jackson. She was such a good realtor. She was always pleasant, and professional. She returned our calls promptly and always answered our questions with great expertise. She always impressed us with her knowledge of the real estate market, even with all its volatility. She was instrumental in helping us to price our house at fair market value so it would sell promptly. I am happy to say our home sold in four months. Marisa was also helpful in helping us to find a new home. She was very attentive to the price range and helped us to find something beautiful and affordable. Marisa's knowledge and efficiency helped to make the sale and purchase of our homes go very smoothly. I would definitely recommend her to anyone buying or selling a house."

Lauren & Joe

"Marissa, you are the Best. We never would have gotten through this without you. You have gone above and beyond the regular call of duty and we truly appreciate everything. You are phenomenal real estate agent and we'll be sure to pass your name along to anyone we know that is moving. The next time you get a call from me will be for a party not business."

Anthony P.

"Marissa went out of her way to make my first home buying experience a great one. She was diligent in her search and only showed me homes that would fit my needs. I never felt any sort of pressure in making a hasty decision. She was very patient, cooperative, and helpful. Marissa worked tirelessly to help me find not only the perfect house, but the perfect home for me."

Allison M.

"Marissa is a true professional. She guided my husband and I with great attention to detail through the selling process. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell. Because of her, we had no "hiccups" thorugh the process and everything went very smoothly. She was always calm, articulate and very reassuring."

Michael R.

"I am a happy homeowner and owe it all to Marissa Ferrari. Our journey started when I called her office cold in regards to a property...she picked up and the rest was history. I knew Marissa was the agent for me immediately; she was attentive to my inquiries, and sensitive to my situation. My search lasted for quite a while and I saw dozens upon dozens of listings. She worked diligently with me as if I were her only client, constantly keeping me alerted to new listings and always at the ready to show something I was interested in regardless of time or schedule. There were treks through blizzard conditions and constant phone calls..To say the least I was a high-maintenance client and Marissa was totally accommodating and always with a smile. Marissa made the entire experience "simple" and stress-free always stepping in to buffer where possible. Did I mention she had the patience of a Saint?... Marissa's dedication to her customers is second to none. Her attention to every detail... exemplary..... In the end not only did I find a home, but a friend as well."

Marc R.

"Thank you Marissa. Not only am I pleased with my new purchase but also I thank you for the time and effort you spent working on my behalf. Your professionalism is unequaled. Any questions or concerns I had when I called you were always available and made time. You are an asset to not only your company but to realty as a profession. I look forward to hearing that one day you are the individual that teaches your industry how a professional does there job. "

Ed & Christy U.

"We have been fortunate enough to have Marissa help us on two occasions. The first time we met Marissa she helped us find a condo to rent. When the rental was over, and with the market being a good time for buyers, we decided we would like to purchase a condo. We live in a different state now, and buying a home out of state can be very difficult. Marissa showed our boys various units and then e-mailed us pictures and details of the ones they were interested in. She was able to find us a lovely unit. Marissa helped us every step of the way. She set up appointments and met with inspectors so we could obtain all the required documents for closing. Marissa was on top of everything. We trusted her so much that we did not even come up to see the condo until the day before our closing. It was all we expected. She joined us at the closing, everything went smoothly. We would not have been able to accomplish this without her. Marissa is a wonderful Realtor whom we will use again if the opportunity arises. "

Carmine & Denise P.

"Marissa was so instrumental in the purchase of our shore house. She helped in every step of the process and was always available to show us a house we saw at a moments notice... I would recommend her to all."


Eileen S.

"Marissa sold our home in Jackson with no stress or aggravation to us. She gave us sound and reasonable advice given the market situation at the time of the sale. She is extremely professional and wonderful to work with. Smart real estate professional! We have already recommended her to friends of ours and they were equally pleased."

Vanessa C.

"Marissa is very professional but still able to make you smile. Very knowledgable about the house's she takes you to. I was able to call/text any time of the day and she would always get back to me. Goes above and beyond for her clients. Love her!"

Jeffrey S. Glaser, Ph.D.

"It is rare today to find a person who is an expert in his or her profession. Marissa Ferrari is not only an expert in her field but has a profound passion for what she does. I know what she does is hard work but she makes it look effortless. Her efforts to sell my home and help me find a new home were tireless. here's the amazing part. After my house was sold and I purchased my new home she continued to work very hard to make sure things went smoothly and on time. I can't imagine anything that she can't accomplish for her clients. She is simply the VERY BEST!!"

Terri S.

"This is my second purchase with Marissa and she like always, makes the process so enjoyable. Her expertise and attention to detail throughout the entire process are seamless!! Thanks Marissa!!"

Judy H.

"It was a pleasure working with Marissa she made a very difficult process easy to understand. From the start to the finish I was very impressed by her knowledge. I would reccomend her to any one buying or selling a house."

Bill & Karen D.

"She made me feel like a family friend, I just so happened to have two boys her age. We could relate very well, by the time we closed on our house I felt like she was one of my kids. As a matter of fact she's helping my son and new daughter-in-law in finding a house. Very nice person, she's not pushy. If you want to see one house or six houses she would get you to see them. "

Adam S.

"Called her up out of the blue and she was there the next day to show us houses. Marissa made us feel like we were her only clients. As far as advice on locations, she was 100% accurate on the entire surrounding area! If she is available and you go with another, you're missing out on an eager, energetic, talented agent who listens and cares about what YOU want. 5 stars doesnt being to explain it! We owe our positive NJ experience to you. Thanks."

Conan & Erin D.

"Marissa was very nice to work with. Our mortgage process was a bit difficult due to being self-employed and Marissa was always helpful and positive. We bought an older home that needs a lot of work and she was patient as we tried to figure out what we wanted to do in each room and even gave us some great advice about the reno's. She also worked around our crazy schedule. I have already recommended her to a family member that is considering selling in the near future."

Brian M.

"We found Marissa at an open house when we were exploring various communities in central New Jersey. Even though we were not ready to buy just yet she provided us with lots of information about the area. She maintained contact with us until we got preapproved and was not pushy in any way. Marissa maintained the highest standards of professionalism throughout the buying process and gave us guidance for each step of the way. She stood by us as one deal fell through due to the sellers not wanting to wait for a 60+ day closing and steered us toward a much better home for our needs. She was aggressive enough to get the home at the price we wanted and the seller walked away happy as well. Thanks again for being so responsive, patient, and reassuring during our closing. We recommend Marissa Ferrari with no reservations."

Bill and Karen D.

"Marissa is truly an expert in her field! She gave us excellent direction in not only finding a new home, but in selling our old one. She put together a great listing for our house including beautiful photos and appealing descriptions. In addition she worked tirelessly with us to locate the perfect home and was there supporting us every step of the way. During the often stressful time of selling and buying a home, Marissa always has the answers to any questions and concerns that we had, and was very responsive and easy to reach. She was also very helpful in referring us to other professionals that we needed such as home inspectors, contractors, movers etc. Marissa is very caring, intelligent and professional and always a pleasure to work with."

Conrad R.

"As a first-time buyer, it was very helpful having Marissa guide me through the home buying process. She was always responsive and went above and beyond to ensure that I was up to date with current listings in the Jersey Shore area. Marissa is a true professional who was honest and able to communicate with all parties effectively. I'd recommend Marissa for anyone and everyone!"

Karl B.

"It was a wonderful experience working with Marissa. She showed dedication and passion. She demonstrated a brilliant understanding of what to look for giving our needs. As a first time home buyer, I was mesmerized with all the paper work involved with a home purchase but with Marissa's expertise, the process was made easier and we ended up with our dream home in a very tranquil setting. In a word, Marissa Ferrari is a professional with the dedication that all first time home buyers need. I was very lucky to have her as my realtor." 

Michael D.

"Marissa was great to work with. This was my first purchase of a house, and though it was stressful she was there every step of the way, day and night. Can not say enough about he kindess and professionalism, if you are looking for a home look no further than Marissa. I love my new home and highly recommend her services, and hope to do business again with her for my next home in the future."
 

Agnes K.

"Marissa was wonderful to work with. This was my first home purchase and Marissa's knowledge and expertise really shined. She made the entire process as smooth as possible and answered any and all questions I had. I highly recommend working with Marissa whether you're buying, selling or looking to rent!"

Gregory E.

"I can't say enough positive things about Marissa. My wife and I had been looking for a house for over a year. We had used multiple realtors and were very dissatisfied with all of them. Finally we found Marissa and within a month or two we had an accepted offer put in on the house we now own. Marissa worked very hard for us throughout the entire process and was very quick to respond to the deluge of email I sent her daily."

Gerald C.

"My partner and I bought a home in Asbury Park last February and we started to look for houses in October. I have owned and sold more than several homes in my lifetime and NEVER have I found a Real Estate agent as knowledgeable and accomodating as Marissa.
She was patient, showed us many houses (some several times) and kept us informed of new openings. She was not pushy and waited for us to ask questions, which she answered immediately or would find out the answer. She was very helpful in negotiating a fair price always in our favor. 
When it came time for an inspector, she would only settle for a structural engineer. Whatever the inspector was dubious or found a situation that needed correcting, she was on top of the situation while he was still inspecting. An example: Several problems with the electrical set up. She was on the phone and had an electrician come check the problem out and give us an estimate.
When we bought the house, we needed an electrician and a carpenter to come do extra work. She recommended both and they were the tops. 
Besides her talents and knowledge, she has a fantastic personality and you become "friends" at once. Very trustworthy. SO LOOK NO FURTHER, MARISSA IS YOUR GAL!"

Robert M.

"She sold our house very quickly. She is pleasant and really knows the real estate business. We received our asking price. She was knowledgable and returned calls very quickly. If she couldn't answer the phone, which was rare, she was quick to call back. I would recommend her highly."

Brant U.

"I have had the pleasure of using Marissa numerous times in searching of rentals and purchases. She has always been a great help in finding properties, and always makes herself available to assist with the process. I would never use another realtor."

Tom & Ramona M.

"We met her when there was an open house in our neighborhood. Even though we were not looking to sell at that time, she still took the time to talk to us and share ideas on what we could do when we put our house on the market. We contacted her to sell my mother-in-law's house when she passed away and Marissa and her team did an excellent job in a very short period of time. We've been in contact with her via email and she's very responsive."

Len & Aleda M.

"Marissa came to us via a recommendation. When we met with her we had interviewed a few realtors and were not impressed with any of them. Marissa was a totally different story. Her professionalism, her knowledge of the house market as well as her enthusiasm was second to none. In this tough market, she researched her "comps" came up with the right strategy and the result was simple. We sold our house in "10 days" from the time we contracted with her. Marissa did not feel that her job was done when our home was under contract. She kept working with us to make sure there were no last minute problems. Even recommending contractors and moving people to make it all go smooth. One word describes it all. She is a true "professional"." 

M. Hoffman

"Wow, I can't say enough good things about Marissa. After working with a couple of other realtors, it was Marissa's efforts that resulted in the sale of my house. She is first-rate all of the way. With her outgoing personality, along with her experience and professionalism, she organized one of the best open house events I have experienced.

It's not easy selling a property when the local real estate market isn't the best, but with Marissa's hard work and dedication, my house sold for a fair price, even in a tough market. 

So, if you're looking to buy or sell a property, you really need to look no further, Marissa should be your choice." 

Lillian S.

"Marissa- I would like to thank you once again for the quick sale of my house. When I first met you, I was impressed by your warmth and professionalism. I knew you would be the right person for the job. You made the process of selling my house so much easier and I especially appreciated your can-do attitude. You always answered my questions immediately and I always felt my house was your top priority. I would highly recommend you to any buyer or seller. Thank you."

John & Joanne L.

"Both Joanne and I want to thank you for your tremendous effort in selling our home in this very difficult and competitive housing market. We have tried to sell previously with another real estate agent but were not treated any where as well as you have treated us. With you, it was almost like having a family member or close friend in the real estate business. Marissa, you are someone who always made us feel good about having you as our agent. You always answered my inquires and gave me feedback from the people who came to view my home. You made suggestions without hurting our feelings about changes in the staging of our home, so it will be enhanced further when someone else came to see it. Marissa, you were with us every step of the way and when the sale did happen, you made us feel we sold our home at the best price possible and I have no regrets at all about it. Thanks for your hard work and you will always be remembered by the both of us as a friend not just as a Real Estate Agent."

Oksana C.

"She was always so helpful. Went above and beyond to help with everything. She was always prompt and got back to me as soon as she could. She is the best and I strongly recommend her. She is a fantastic agent and anyone who is working with her are fortunate."



Kevin Asadi

"I recommend Marissa. I have worked with Marissa on behalf of mutual clients. Marissa is a talented and tireless agent for her clients who puts their goals ahead of her own. She is also a well-respected leader of the industry. Her clients always speak very highly of her."

Karen Thoms, EVP Red Key Title

"I have had the pleasure of regularly working with Marissa Ferrari.

We see first hand the time and care she invests in every client. Her level of communication with our team creates an ongoing information flow to all parties resulting in a quick trip to the closing table without the usual mis-steps, delays and well, drama!

She is a professional's professional; always the ultimate technician while at the same time leading with her heart. That is an unbeatable combination."

Bryan H.

"Marissa helped us find a tenant for our rental property. She is very professional but at the same time makes you feel like you have known her for years. I will use Marissa in the future for my real estate needs."

George S.

"Marissa worked very hard to satisfy my very particular requirements. She made sure I heard her recommendations but still worked very hard when I decided for my reasons not to take her recommendation. The process took a while but she hung in with me and worked hard all the way to the end."
