We would like to stress our accolades for Barbara Eden as a highly professional realtor.  She always kept us informed on who and when individuals were seeing our property, and advised us on lawyers, packers & movers. She negotiated the most fair and best price for both the buying of our condo in 2012 and the selling of the same (11 years later) in 2023.  Barbara is reliable, always on top of the housing/condo market  trends, and has a good knowledge of realty law.  She has a deep insight of the property values especially at the Port Liberty complex. Therefore, we highly recommend Barbara Eden for any realty transactions one may be considering in the future.

Within 2 days of putting my condo up for sale, Barbara secured an offer at full asking price, as she predicted. I rented out my condo for 9 years (with Barbara securing both of my tenants), and along the way she would advise me on whether to sell or not. Every year was a hard no, until this year when she said this is the time, inventory is low, rates are increasing and my place was peaking. She said it would fly off the market, and it did. Barbara always had my best interest, advising me through the market swings and ensuring I got the max value from my investment. She truly is one of the best and would recommend her to anyone I know.

- Christian and Erica

Working with Barbara was a real pleasure, although on the other side of the transaction it’s so refreshing to work with someone that is friendly, professional and knowledgeable keeping in mind the best interest of her clients.

Hoping to close another deal together soon! 

- Laura De Francesco

When it came time to put our condo on the market, we had some special requests.  We needed to sell before the year’s end and would need interim housing.

 Of course we called Barbara! She was instrumental in our purchase 6 years ago (and wow was that a crazy story) and also became a friend!

 Our condo sold in one day, the process smooth as silk. Communication is so important during a time which can be stressful and Barbara was in constant contact taking care of everything. 

 She found us a great place to stay until we are ready to go on to our next adventure.

 Barbara has been at Port Liberte a long time and knows the ins and outs and how to get things done.

 We will always be grateful for her professionalism, guidance and friendship.

We recommend Barbara to anyone looking to buy or sell their home. Barbara quickly and successfully sold our home last month and we found her professional and thoughtful approach most welcome. Barbara took care of everything from preparing our condo for showing to handling the final key transfer. All of Barbara's recommendations were spot on because she takes the time to understand the seeds of both buyer and seller, makes herself available to talk or meet, and has years of experience representing buyers and sellers. We could not be more pleased with Barbara as our realtor and highly recommend her. Shana and Stu

Gosh, Thank You Barbara!!

You are amazing at getting tenants and helping with absolutely everything. It is stressful managing properties from the other side of the earth and you make it so much easier and you are lovely to work with.

 

Thank you so much. 🙏

Barbara Eden represented us in our purchase at Port Lib in July 2019.  Nobody had recommended her;   we met her quite by chance.  She was clearly competent and energetic, and, although she was unknown to us,  we decided to work with her.  But, when she gave us lots of recommendations for attorneys, mortgage companies and inspectors, we were more than suspicious, having been burnt by realtors in the past.

We did NOT go with her recommendations, and WHAT A HUGE MISTAKE!. We would have sailed thru the closing working with her attorney,  who knows the ins and outs of real estate closings at Port Lib, rather than a protracted and expensive aggravation we had with a “family recommended” lawyer.    

Ok.  hindsight is 20/20. We have since become friends.  So, I’m hoping anyone working with her now knows how trustworthy, well informed, and well respected Barbara is.  

- Former client and now friend

Barbara has done it again! She was instrumental in getting our condo at Port Liberté sold quickly and at the right price! She used her extensive networking skills to find us a qualified buyer who appreciated our property’s unique design.  Barbara has helped us with at least five other property transactions and has always proven herself to be a consummate professional. If you want your property sold or rented quickly and as close to asking price as possible, Barbara should be your broker!

- Sue M.

Working with Barbara has been nothing short of spectacular. She is attentive, responsive, organized, professional and most of all, genuinely caring. I was going through a difficult time while simultaneously closing on my unit. Barbara was there for me as a Realtor and friend. I would recommend her a million times over!

- Mariann Pappagallo

We have been working with Barbara since 2003.  She sold a property for us years ago while we were living abroad.  She walked us through purchasing a beautiful Port Liberte condo 4 years ago.  Last week she guided us again through the sale if that condo as we are relocating out of state.  She is honest and supportive.  Thorough, calm and reassuring.   Selling a home is always emotional, 2020 and COVID made it even more so, but Barbara did a wonderful job for our family.  Always keeping our best interest in mind.  Following all the health and safety protocols and being sensitive to our schedule  I can't imagine the experience being any better.  She is a professional and has become a dear friend.  

- Catherine Jimenez

Thank you for all your help with my property over the years and the sale - especially by X’mas!

Wishing you joy and good health in the new year!

- Sen Tan

I wanted to take a minute to thank you from the bottom of my heart.  All of your guidance, patience, humor, sensitivity, and general concern are appreciated!  This was such a difficult time for many reasons and you literally gave us comfort each and every day.

- Kelly A.

Barbara makes it happen! We have worked with Barbara on a purchase and a sale of our condo unit in Port Lib. Barbara was always available to ease our concerns and pulled a rabbit out of her hat to sell our unit, she is creative, attentive, flexible and her network is unmatched. She made it possible for us to find our dream home and we are so grateful! 

- Sabrina & Joel

 

 

Barbara Eden is the consummate professional yet also the friend that you need when things don’t go exactly as planned. We are so very happy with her knowledge, service and attention to all the details, and for being the first call for every need we had.

We were referred to Barbara by a mutual friend to find a condo for our parents in Port Liberte. We spoke in the spring of 2019 and advised her of our wish list for my parents’ new home. We were advised that she did not have any properties that would meet our needs but would advise if a desired property came available. In the fall of 2019 she contacted us and the rest is history. She was available to answer any questions throughout the process. She knows all there is to know about Port Liberte. My parents will be moving in before the holidays. Barbara is highly experienced, quick, a great communicator, professional and warm. I would highly and enthusiastically recommend contacting Barbara if you are looking to buy in Port Liberte; Barbara is the unofficial mayor of that lovely community!

Barbara was a savior when we turned to her after a potential rental fell through and we needed to find a place quickly.  From the start she was a straight shooter. She knows Port Liberte and the real state world like the back of her hand. She advocated for us, and made the process very easy for us. Barbara is very efficient, responsive, and supportive and we are so grateful that she was there to find us a beautiful rental.

Thank you Barbara!  We have worked with Barbara for over 10 years after renting our home through her while we were overseas and our recent sale of our home in Port Liberte.  Barbara is always very prompt in answering questions whether market related or otherwise.  She goes the extra mile to help her clients and is also a very honest person and always was straight forward in dealing with both the buyer and seller.

- Steve Butters

I have worked with realtors in other parts of New Jersey, but none have gone the extra mile that Barbara consistently achieves for her clients.  Barbara sold a townhouse I listed a few years ago on Half Moon Isle, after presenting me with multiple offers.  In July 2017, Barbara listed a 3-bedroom unit I owned on West Shearwater, bringing nearly a full-price offer from a buyer that was her client.  I immediately called Barbara when I decided to relocate and sell the unit.  Barbara helps clients by providing a variety of suggestions about the local area and gives her all regarding the sale or purchase of a home – she is truly the best!

Working with Barbara on the sale of our condo was a rich and rewarding experience. Her knowledge of the real estate market and Port Liberte was invaluable, and her efforts tireless. Whatever was needed, from pricing strategies to organizing the final cleanup, Barbara was always willing to help. Always a professional, working with her was a wonderful experience my husband and I truly appreciated. Of all the things we will miss about Port Liberte, Barbara’s kindness, humor, and infectious laugh will rank at the top. Thank you for all your help!

I could not have chosen a better realtor than Barbara Eden...

I have bought and sold over 15 properties in my life. Starter homes at a young age and dream homes later in life. I can tell you that when it comes to selecting realtors,  most want to simply "sell you a property" and move on. But then there are the rare few who are dedicated to "finding you a home you love". My most recent purchase was a waterfront condo at Port Liberte as a second home close to the city. I had the good fortune to secure the services of Barbara Eden and I can tell you that she is dedicated to finding you a home you love and will always represent your best interests. She listened to my needs, was honest about market realities and ultimately worked harder than any realtor I have ever worked with in the past to help me close a deal on a home that perfectly suited my needs. I could not have been more impressed with her insights, work ethic or professionalism. Moreover, she and her husband Mike are genuinely delightful people. I highly recommend Barbara. You will not be disappointed.

 

- Larry Schreiber

Barbara Eden managed our sale and relocation to a rental unit within the Port Liberte complex.  It was a difficult sale to negotiate and she handled it with all the finesses of a genie in a bottle.  We were fortunate to have Barbara on our side through a very stressful transition and cannot thank her enough for her guidance, care, and attention.  If like us you are facing retirement and the necessary evil of downsizing, be sure to have the right person at your side to ease the way.  Barbara was that person for us.

- Dales

Barbara has been the breath of fresh air that my husband and myself needed. We had to relocate on a short notice from out of state and we really felt overwhelmed with all that had to be done, until we reached out to Barabra. She was able to find us the perfect place for our family to call home and also assisted us with getting familiar with our new surroundings. Because we relocated from a different state.... I must of had about million questions for Barbara .........and she answered all of them with a smile. I truly felt like I was asking a friend. Thank You Barbara !!!!!!!!!!

- Arlan & Linda Peterson

Thanks Barbara!  Always a pleasure to work with someone who is as diligent and straight forward as you are.  Hopefully this is the first of many deals we will do together!

- Andrew/Realtor

Thank you for the great business transaction with the sale of my house and for being such a good friend!

Let me start this testimonial by showing my tremendous gratitude to Barbara for all her effort to make things smooth and effect a great start in our relationship. I have had many transactions with Realtors over the course of my life now. No one has come close to the extent Barbara is willing to go to just get it done. When I see actions like this, I promise you it melts away any complaints or issues I can have.

"Barbara is the best! Found us a great tenant for our town home in record time. Her network of friends, clients, and brokers is boundless and she works it well! She negotiates the trickiest issues, handles all the paperwork, and responds quickly! Now we will have a seamless transition to our new digs."

- Ron & Sue

 

"Working with Barbara was a dream. We’ve worked with other agents in the past, but Barbara’s level of professional expertise is unmatched. She is an amazing agent and really puts her clients first. She responded quickly to every question or concern we had. Although she’s a very busy realtor, we never felt ignored or unimportant. She truly makes you feel like you’re her #1 priority because that’s how she views each of her clients.

We wanted to close on our new home as quickly as possible. Barbara was fantastic. She knew all the right professionals. From the inspector, to the broker, to the insurance agent, Barbara’s recommendations got the job done quickly. We closed and moved into our beautiful new home in slightly over a month.

In addition to working with Barbara as buyers, we also had the pleasure of working with her to rent out one of our other properties. We needed a tenant quickly. Barbara was able to list the property and find us a great tenant in a week. Her innate sense of people and her keen eye for showcasing properties is invaluable in this area's competitive market."  

- Nellie and Danny F.

It's been one month since we moved into our beautiful Port Liberte home and we couldn't be happier.  We feel like we are on vacation at a beautiful resort. You took the time to see us when we were first looking and deciding where to live.  When you showed us our unit, we instantly fell in love. Who would have known the long, crazy path we took from "falling in love" to the closing.  Not only did you introduce us to experienced professionals to guide us through the process, you stuck by us through it all with god humor advice, and a shoulder to cry on. Thank you so much for all of your efforts to make our dream a reality.

- John and Maria Cartier

Thanks again for your extra mile's help to rent out the Port Liberte condo.  You are "Queen of Port Liberte in 2015".  I really appreciated your concern and thoughts throughout the process and your hard work to make this rental deal happen.

- Hudson County Realtor

Barbara Eden is by far the best broker I have ever worked with. She's honest, warm, caring and listens to the needs of her clients. When I moved into Port Lib, I was intimidated by all the paperwork and procedures but Barbara took me by the hand and walked me through everything. From the moment I met her at our first meeting to the time I moved in...Barbara was by my side. Thank you!!!!!

- Danielle

Barbara was fantastic to work with.  She is knowledgeable, patient, efficient, and most importantly she knows how to get results!  We will be for sure working with her in the future for any of our real estate needs.  In a sea of agents and brokers, its hard to find quality and we have learned through our experience that Barbara is true gem!

 

 

- Axita Patel

Barbara Eden went above and beyond my expectations!  She is brutally honest - which is so rare in the real estate world.  Barbara always told me - both when working with me to twice rent my place and to finally sell my condo - exactly what the real situations to expect were.  I was always free to price above or below what she recommended was reality in the market place, but she always gave me her honest opinion.  Moreover, Barbara's attention to detail and routine follow up on showings and activity was so reassuring that she was actively marketing and promoting my place.  She advised me when to hold the price vs when to lower it if I wanted to get more activity.  Since I was living many states away from New Jersey, Barbara ALWAYS offered to take care of small details for me since I could not.  I cannot recommend her services highly enough if you want an honest, transparent, reliable professional to work with you.  Above all, Barbara is a delightful person with a great sense of humor!

- Jack Armstrong

Dealing with Barbara was a pleasure. Her real estate savvy and expertise allowed me to move through the entire selling process, from listing to closing, with ease. Barbara was available and approachable through each phase of the process.

Thanks again,

 

- Jackie DiGregorio

A savvy realtor with a good heart, Barbara helped us find the home that we now love. She is honest, knowledgeable about the community, and has tons of patience—I don’t know how many properties we looked at—even venturing out on one of the coldest nights of the year! She promptly answered all of our phone calls and all of our questions. It was a pleasure working with her.

  

- Carrie Gottlieb

"I have worked with Barbara on two different occasions - once when purchasing a unit in Port Liberte and again when renting a unit in Port Liberte. She is the whole package! She is the ultimate expert with regards to the Port Liberte community on the whole. She is versed with the community both as a realtor and also as a resident who lives there herself. She is knowledgeable, organized, professional and extremely personable. She makes your real estate experience stress free."

 

- Kelly

Renting an apartment is stressful, after hearing all the horror stories about the Realtor agents, I was not sure whether getting an agent would be helpful. Then came an angel called Barbara. She  was truly wonderful to work with helping me rent an apartment from the minute I sent her a mail.  Always easy to get a hold of even in weird hours of the day. Even though she had personal issues to take care of, she made sure that my moving and settling into the apartment at Port Liberte was taken care of. I couldn’t have made a better choice using her as my realtor, and would definately recommend her

Thanks barbara for all the help

- Jay

Barbara, I would like to thank you for all of your help selling this corporate home.   As an out of state owner, it was a great relief to know that you had everything under control. I really appreciate you putting forth the extra effort and taking care of many of the small details that needed to be done that I could not handle being five states away.   Your knowledge of the market, and your ability to keep me informed always let me know I was in good hands and doing what was best for me and my company. It is not often that I have houses to buy or sell, but you will be my first call if anything else comes up.

 

 

- Sean Turner

Barb, thank you so much for everything you did to make the sale of my condo happen. You were always there for me, took charge and followed up on all outstanding items. I couldn't have done this without you!  Thank you for everything!  

- Barbara Smith

“Barbara Eden is the only Realtor you’ll ever need…

She helped us buy our first home in Jersey City and then stuck by our side for five years until we were ready to sell. Over the five years Barbara helped us with renovation ideas and was a great resource and guide for all our DIY projects.

When the time came to put our home on the market she worked hard to get us the price we wanted in the time we had allotted for the sale.

We highly recommend Barbara Eden!”

- The Waldron's

“Thank you so much for looking out for me and for finding me the perfect place here in Port Liberte. I know you don’t get rich off of me, but you put in the time as if you do. You’re a rare breed in that sense and I truly appreciate how good you’ve been to me. Please know that Jeremy and I both are grateful.”

- Marin & Jeremy

“Thank you Barbara. The best move I made was to make a call to a lady by the name of Barbara Eden, truly a “genie.”"

- Linda V V

“The purpose of this email is to express my gratitude to you for delivering a very positive customer experience while acting as our buyer agent in evaluating properties in Jersey City including the Port Liberté area. You were very diligent in assessing our needs and lining up property viewings that met the criteria. The ultimate solution you helped forge involved thinking out of the box and combining the affordability of a specific property with the purchase of a car.

  • All bases were covered with the solution. My husband and I have lived in 5 states and purchased over 13 properties. This particular customer experience gets the high mark.
  • The contacts you provided for services were qualified tradesmen who have so far delivered on time and on specifications.
  • When we first toured properties with you in late January, I felt like I was walking with a Rock Star because every one stopped us to exchange greetings with you. Now that we have closed on the property and have leveraged several of your contacts, I know you are a Star! It’s not just that famous name, it’s your brand and YOU deliver.

Please feel free to post this email since it’s an assessment of how I and my family members feel about your Top Notch professionalism in helping us purchase property in Jersey City, NJ.”

- Marie G

“I just purchased my first property with Barbara Eden.  Barbara was a pleasure to work with and so very helpful. She provided me with all the extra resources I needed and was always available for any questions, concerns.  I am now in a place that i love thanks to Barbara!”

- Maura

“I can’t thank you enough for your help renting and then selling my apartment. You helped find the right contractors to prepare the apartment for sale, you worked with other brokers to ensure it received the maximum number of showings and once we had a buyer, you supported me though the whole process. The repairs required during the last week would have been stressful, but you were there to ensure everything was handled correctly and timely. Since I wasn't living at Port Liberte at the time, I don’t know how these issues would have been handled without you. You were always accessible, immediately resolved every problem and remained a pleasure to work with. Thank you!”

- Claire M

“Barbara was truly wonderful to work with buying my home. Always easy to get a hold of. Went out of her way on a couple occasions. A true happy person that really enjoys her job. Made buying my home stress free. I couldn’t’ have made a better choice using her has my realtor.”

- Erica

“Thank you so much for your help in selling our condo!  Your knowledge of the Port Liberte market and your guidance really made a difference for us. You were able to provide us with painter and cleaner recommendations to prepare the condo for listing and you helped us with various tasks after we had moved out.  You are personable and a pleasure to work with.  We would recommend your services to anyone.”

- Sean & Christine

“Barbara, you are the mayor of Port Liberte and the only one who truly cares about this community. Your uncanny knack of matching the right seller with the right buyer is amazing. If people aren’t listing or buying through you, chances are they didn’t get the full story of how romantic and beautiful Port Liberte can be. Thanks again!!”

- David M

“Just want to say a big thank you for everything you’ve done to help us through the sale of the house from start to finish. You’ve gone above and beyond, and your efforts to “seal the deal” aren’t lost on us. You found the right buyer for the home and the piano!!!

> Sorry for things getting a little crazy yesterday. Seems selling a house and moving are some of the most stressful situations in life – but you really helped us keep on track to keep us from losing it at times. You are more than our Realtor – you are truly a friend!

> If you ever need any recommendations, we would definitely be more than happy to steer them your way!!!

> Thanks so much for all that you’ve done!!”

Barbara was great from the get go! She guided us through the entire process, kept us informed, respected our home and our time. She also … was ever on the alert in ensuring our Cats remain in the house!!

Most importantly she help us properly price and market our home ensuring a timely and rewarding outcome. Barbara is savvy, personable and knows the market inside and out.

We are nothing but pleased with Barbara and her expertise and we confidently recommend her to assist with any of your real estate needs.”

- Donna and Harold Catlaw

“I had the pleasure of working with Barbara Eden on a short-sale of a condominium recently. Like most short-sales, this transaction was not easy. However, with Barbara’s hard-work, tenacity, and professionalism, we were able to get the transaction closed. As an attorney who focuses much of my practice on real estate, it is always a pleasure to find a realtor who possesses such qualities. If you are looking for a hard-working, diligent, practical realtor to help you sell or purchase a property, I would highly recommend Barbara.”

- Andrew R.

“Barbara has been instrumental in the purchase of our home within the Port Liberte community. She knows Port Liberte inside and out. She is honest, reliable and professional.

“My husband and I have rented at Port Liberte for 7 years.  When we heard that our landlord needed to move into our apartment, my husband and I knew that we needed to contact Barbara.  She knows Port Liberte inside and out.  She is honest, reliable and professional.  She listened to our needs, what was important to us and honored our price point.  She found us the perfect unit, in a short time andcommunicated with us throughout the process.  These qualities are hard to find, and we couldn’t appreciate her more.  We would use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an experienced and efficient realtor.

- Marin and Jeremy

I just want to say thank you so much for all of your hard work and dedication!! You went above and beyond to make sure that we have our place rented in a short amount of time. We truly enjoyed working with you!! .”

- Fortucci family

“I employed Barbara Eden for the sale of my townhouse in Port Liberte. I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly we were able to sell, but I learned that the work of a Real Estate agent is not as simple as I thought. Problems arise even after you have a buyer and you need someone representing you who not only knows the market but can solve problems as they come up. In my case Barbara not only solved my problems but one of the buyers. I’m glad I chose Barbara and I recommend her to anyone looking to sell their property in Port Liberte or anywhere in Jersey City.”

- Rich and Valerie

“Over the last few years Barbara has been my broker of choice. She sold my last place in down town Jersey City for a great price and found me a beautiful place within Port Liberte.

She really knows the Jersey City property values especially within Port Liberte. Whenever I need a question answered about the real estate market around Jersey City, Barbara has always proven to be quite competent and knowledgeable about the area.

I would highly recommend Barbara to anybody who is looking for real estate help.”

- Steve Clark

“You were great, thank you for all your help.”

- Bulent and Ozlem

“Can’t recommend Barbara highly enough! She knows Port Liberte inside and out. When we were transferred out of state, she found the perfect tenant for our condo there. And when we sold that same condo in a short sale, she handled everything perfectly. We appreciate Barbara, both as a realtor and a friend. Her knowledge and expertise are invaluable!”

- Patty and Kevin

“We have used Barbara several times to help us find condos to rent within the Port Liberte community. We’ve twice been fortunate to rent from her exclusive listings. Barbara truly cares about her client relationships and you can always guarantee to get an honest and professional answer from her. She does an excellent job at following-up on inquiries and always handles herself in a very professional and courteous manner. She knows everything there is to know about Port Liberte and we would never think of using anyone else.”

- Matt S.

“Thank you for everything and being my broker.”

- Dennis Choo

“Barbara was very helpful in our search for the perfect home for us in Port Lib. She was patient, informative and really listened and cared about our needs

We are so glad we chose Barbara as our Realtor. She was always available to us no matter when we called. She turned out to be not only a great Realtor for us but a true friend as well.”

- Scott and Cathy Shaw

“My wife and I have recently closed on the sale of a condo that we have been trying to sell for quite a while. Several previous brokers either couldn’t find a buyer, or couldn’t follow the process to a successful conclusion. Barbara was wonderful! She found us a buyer. She directed us through the real estate maze and kept us informed at each and every step along the way. She helped us find people to assist us with the entire sale process. We can never thank her enough! We would strongly recommend Barbara Eden to anyone interested in selling or buying real estate in the Jersey City area.”

- Iris and Bernard Polatsch MD

"Barbara is one of the most talented agents I have ever worked with. She is kind, sweet and generous. She did not treat me like a client but like family. Barbara has rented my condo out several times and I think the longest it took her to rent it was a week. Most of the time, it was done in 1-2 days. When I decided to sell, I knew Barbara was going to be my agent. Unfortunately I had to do a short sale with the falling Real Estate prices. Barbara found a buyer almost immediately, but during the drawn out process Barbara was there to guide me every step of the way. She would answer any question I had and would stay on top of the sale. I could call her anytime during the day and she would answer the phone in a cheerful voice. Her upbeat attitude gave me a sense of comfort. The short sale unfortunately fell through as the buyer backed out at the last minute. Barbara told me don’t worry. She found a second buyer in less than 2 days and helped me close in under 30 days later. Barbara is very determined and personable and an expert on short sales. I would recommend her and do recommend her to anyone looking to rent, buy or sell in NJ.

Thanks Barbara!

- Rich Walsh

“I want to take the time to thank you for the huge effort you put into selling my house. It was a pleasure to have met you and I hope that when the time comes you will be our agent in purchasing a new home.”

- Evelyn and Ernesto Ixchop

“Just a note to say thanks for all you’ve done in helping us find a qualified tenant. I would also like to say what a pleasure it is to know you. It’s very rare to be able to call your Realtor a friend, but in your case I am proud to call you a friend. You have really made this transition for us very easy. You always look out for the interests of client and dual client. The community that we live in is a better place to live in because of your caring. Thanks again.”

- Anne and Pete Littler

“We have had the pleasure of working with Barbara on several real estate transactions, including property purchases, sales, and rentals, and we have found her to be the hardest-working, most highly-professional broker that we have ever dealt with. She knows Jersey City, Bayonne, and the surrounding area inside out, and her insights as to how to attract buyers and renters have always proved valuable. Barbara always goes the extra mile, and her efforts have resulted in success in all of our transactions. We are proud to consider her a good friend as well as our exclusive broker. We couldn’t dream of asking anyone else to help us with our real estate needs!”

- Sue and Ron Melamud

“I was transferred to the New Jersey area on July 5th from Seattle. I was given two home finding trips, but after my first visit I realized the area was very complex and I would need more time to purchase a home. I determined the best route would be to rent for one year near my office. When I was visiting Liberty State Park, I saw the view of a pretty village near the park. I drove over and was delighted with Port Liberte. I wanted to know more.

On my return to Seattle, I researched the realtors in the area. After seeing Barbara’s website, and knowing she was a resident of the property, I called my company’s corporate relocation firm and requested Barbara to be my agent. I am glad I made the decision.

From the first contact with Barbara, and numerous other phone calls and meetings, Barbara has been a true professional. She understood my needs and did not waste my time, only researching and showing me properties she knew would work for me. Barbara also assisted me with referrals on other moving tasks I needed to complete.

When your whole life is upside down, there is nothing more calming than a competent person handling your personal business. I would recommend Barbara to anyone who is looking for a home as she will make sure you are making the right decision, at the right time, and will handle your realty needs with experience and expertise”

- Catherine Kayser

“I just wanted to thank you for helping me out.. You are the best real estate agent anyone can have who goes above and beyond the call of duty.

“I contacted Barbara on very short notice to help me find a rental in Port Liberte or a surrounding area. I was traveling from Massachusetts and had only one day to find a suitable place to live. Despite being booked with appointments on that day, Barbara went above and beyond by contacting realtors from other agencies and scheduling appointments for me with them throughout the day to ensure that I saw a sufficient range of properties to enable me to make an informed decision when deciding on the appropriate rental for me. I did not ask Barbara for this scheduling help – she offered it. Her excellent customer service enabled me to find a great rental property.”

- Sharon Horne

“Barbara understood the kind of home we were looking for from the start and was always available to show us properties and answer our questions. She is enthusiastic and professional – it was a pleasure to work with her.”

- Fred & Marcos

“After 27 yrs in the same house my wife and I sold and moved to Port Liberte in Jersey City. The move went spectacularly well mainly due to Barbara’s expertise in getting things done . Barbara was efficient , competent and a pleasure to deal with. We are now happy residents of this delightful community, thank you Barbara.”

- Mike and Terri Henderson

“When I first visited Port Lib, a local business owner suggested I meet Barbara. She made me feel at home right away, asking me to join her while she was having dinner, and sharing a wealth of information about the community. She had access to apartments other brokers didn’t have and within two days we opened the door to this gorgeous place, and I knew I wanted to live there. Barbara took care of details I never expected a broker to handle just to make sure the transition would be easy for us. The previous tenant was staying until the end of the month, and I still wanted to move in on the first. Barbara arranged to have the place painted and cleaned basically overnight and even negotiated to get the place painted on a low budget. Barbara is so unique among brokers, providing a level of service and warmth that is so unusual today, I wonder if the stars in Hollywood even get this treatment when buying thirty-million dollar homes. She took care of every detail, even things I never would have expected help with. It is now an extra treat having Barbara as my neighbor!”

- Laurie Moldawer

“We have known Barbara Eden for three years and she has never stopped amazing us. Once again Barbara has found us another great tenant.

Her relationship with us and our tenants has made her our Realtor of choice at Port Liberte.”

- Wafa and Gerald Harkin

“Barbara has handled numerous real estate transactions for me and has come through for me every time, no matter how quirky the market. I find her remarkably intuitive in sensing her clients’ needs and making successful matches. She is always available and readily responsive with her ebullient personality adding that extra touch that makes an exceptional difference.”

- Sandra M.

- Kevin and Patty

“Thank you for all of your help. You’ve definitely demonstrated a level of service that your peers are unlikely to match.”

- Tony Wenzel, Liberty Terrace

“Being first time home-seekers, we literally dragged our feet (and Barbara’s) to innumerable Port Liberte listings over a year long period. Through it all, Barbara treated us as though we were her BEST client – always smiling, advising and helping us figure out what we really wanted, and what we really didn’t (but thought we did).

Her strength is her relationships and her attitude – putting us first – which made it a pleasure to work with her.

We now think of her as a friend.”

- Achal & Shivani Agarwal

“Barbara, thank you so much for patiently working with us to fulfill our wish to buy a waterfront home. We know you went the extra mile to find us the perfect property. As far as we are concerned, you are the only choice when selecting a Port Liberte Realtor.”

- Percy & Paula Moreira

“Barbara Eden not only is a reliable, professional, hard working, persistent Realtor; she is a caring, thoughtful person. Working with Barbara quickly evolves into the experience of having a friend on your side. Barbara’s results speak for themselves. As our Realtor, Barbara rented our apartment quickly to caring tenants twice in the past three years. She handled everything herself, relieving us entirely of every burden…even our banker, when reviewing the escrow paperwork, praised the quality of Barbara’s work. We are proud to have Barbara as our Realtor and, most importantly, our friend for life.”

- Shana & Stuart Hochron

“All I can say is you can stop your search for an agent right here. Barbara Eden is the best. My husband and I came to her in our search for a home for rent, our hope was to rent first and then purchase a home later. I live in Pittsburgh, and my husband and I preferred to “try before we buy” since we did not know much about the Northern NJ area. We decided on Port Liberte, because this would be an easy commute for my husband. We were dealing with the need for a rather quick timeframe as my husband’s lease in NYC was coming to an end in just over a month, and we had constraints on size, because the home we have in PIttsburgh was a bit larger, so we were in need of space to accommodate. I actually contacted a few other agents before finding Barbara, and didn’t have much luck……and then I found Barbara, who was the utmost professional from the very beginning. I explained our situation and timeline to her and she found us the most incredible apartment, in a very short period of time. She made the whole process seamless and easy. And her knowledge and command of the Real Estate market was just amazing. Barbara is super friendly and easy to talk to…she takes all of the stress out of finding a home. I feel like I not only found an agent, but I found a great friend. And my husband and I look forward to working with Barbara again in about a year when we go to purchase our home. I would recommend Barbara to anyone who is looking for a home or apartment in the Northern NJ area. She really is the best!!!!!”

- Heather Sims-Poladian

“Barbara Eden is a terrific Realtor and friend. She sold our apartment and then found my family a great rental and for a very reasonable price. Barbara was there to answer any questions and hold our hand when we needed it. Thank you.”

- Sara Kawoczka

“When purchasing a home, I can’t imagine being in better or more capable hands than with Barbara Eden. Barbara is professional, knowledgeable about the market and an absolute pleasure to deal with. I always felt like she had my best interests in mind.”

- Carl and Sally Stark

“Selling your primary residence could be a stressful experience. Words cannot explain the efficiency of Barbara Eden.

Barbara is a determined, intelligent and pleasant person. She is always available to her clients and makes the extra effort to accommodate. Her knowledge and patience is endless. Barbara kept me informed at all times and she is always one step ahead.

I will highly recommend Barbara to anyone looking for a realtor, I was very lucky to have found her.

Barbara I cannot thank you enough, I have never encountered a more professional, committed individual. You have made a burdensome task problem free.”

- Linda Barbalinardo

“In my six years in the Army, I’ve moved several times and have interacted with a variety of realtors and property managers. Barbara is by far the most dedicated real estate professional I’ve worked with and one that can really put you at ease during what is usually a stressful process: trying to find a place to live! I’ve now had the pleasure to do business with her as both an incoming and outgoing tenant with one of her managed properties and during it all, her personal touch and concern for her clients’ schedule and needs far surpass any other realtor I’ve known. She personally checked in on my wife and I when we arrived at Port Liberte from a cross-country drive from Seattle and even took us to dinner that evening to celebrate!”

- Ted and Heather Westfall

Barbara, I want to thank you for not only showing my clients your listings, but also taking the time to show them Port Lib. They loved your energy and Port Lib and said that they thought you were terrific!

I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your help. You are the face of Port Lib!!!!

Thanks,”

- Referring Jersey City RE Agent

“Barbara, thank you so much for helping us purchase our first home this past May. Your energy and enthusiasm is truly remarkable and it was so easy to build a rapport you. It was nice to know that you not only lived in the neighborhood but were so well connected with your neighbors and community.

You truly served as an advocate for us as first time home buyers. We were so lucky to have found someone who was always looking out for our best interests. Your style is very engaging and has made a lasting impact on us. We hope to see you soon!”

- Tejal and Jeff

“Barbara is an unbelievable agent. She rented my condo out the first time in less than 12 hours to wonderful tenants. The second time she rented it was less than 5 days. That is an incredible turn around rate. She has saved me a lot of money from not having my condo empty. She is very honest, professional and down to earth. She has a great eye for people and a wonderful outlook. She is easy to talk to and always gets the job done. I will use Barbara’s services again and highly recommend her to anyone who needs an agent. Weichert is very lucky to have her!”

- Rich Walsh

“Barbara is amazing as an agent and as a person. We found our rental through her website and when I called her, she spent the time explaning the units available to me. I spoke with other agents prior to meeting her and the other agents had listings but not within my exact move-in date and even though I was fairly flexible, they wouldn’t talk to me after that, not returning any of my calls. Barbara is very friendly and she is extremely helpful, making sure that all your questions are answered. After I moved in, most agents will no longer stay in touch as their job is done and have gotten paid, but not Barbara! She made sure I have everything I need and still gave me useful information. It is extemely refreshing to meet an agent like Barbara, whose not just in it for the money. If I’m going to buy a place in this area, I will surely contact Barbara again and I highly recommend her to everyone looking for a home.”

- Tai and Karen Wu

“I wanted to drop you a note to say how pleased Cathy and I were with your efforts in the sale of our town home at Port Liberte. In these trying and challenging time your ability to keep the prospective buyer engaged and interested during the give and take of negotiations was key in the successful completion of the sale of our home. Finding a prospective buyer and presenting the home is of little value if it is not punctuated with the sale. You followed through and followed up to make sure we had a positive result that ultimately was the best for all concerned. I am confident your other clients and prospective clients will have a similar experience.”

- Chris Geiger

“We would highly recommend Barbara Eden to anyone in need of a Real Estate Agent. We were impressed with her knowledge of the local home market and with how she listened to and answered all of our questions and concerns quickly and thoroughly. She would try to obtain feedback for us after every showing and was always available day or night. This type of personal treatment is hard to find. Barbara handled each and every aspect of our sale with professional skill and knowledge. She also kept us informed during the entire process. Barbara is a bright, pleasant and experienced Realtor who goes the extra mile to make sure that the sale of your home is a satisfiable experience.”

- Jeff and Rakhi Mohan

- Rob Star

“Barbara Eden has a work ethic that is above reproach and transgresses self interest. She always accommodated my unpredictable work schedule and even encouraged me to purchase a home that was not her listing. Barbara worked diligently with mortgage and legal professionals to ensure I got the best deal possible. Her knowledge about the Port Liberte complex is unparalleled, and she has direct access to important Port Liberte contacts. I am sincerely grateful to Barbara, who treated the purchase of my home as if it were her own. I recommend Barbara Eden without hesitation.”
