What Our Clients Have to Say

Wow, what can I say? We were referred to the Michelle Pais Group by a very close friend after not having much success selling our house with another REALTOR We had our house on the market with “X” realty for close to 5 months and nothing. We did have some showings but nothing came of it. It was so frustrating. We needed to sell and needed to be at our new destination asap. In desperation, we called Michelle Pais. They work flawlessly and are a...

We were lucky to have worked with Janice as our agent. She's knowledgeable, always patient and kind. The process of selling and buying a new home is stressful and Janice kept us sane throughout the entire process, getting top dollar on our sale. We highly recommend Janice Pecoraro as your next real estate agent.

He was very professional and knowledgeable, he sold my home In 2 days. Always called to see how everything was going, and if I needed anything going through this. Had names of people who could help with certain jobs before listing the house.

Michelle Pais and her team at Signature Realty are consummate real estate professionals. They understand pricing and the art of marketing in today's world, especially digital marketing. The 3 photographers took beautiful photos of the house and grounds fantastic job. I followed their recommendations on "decluttering" my extensive art and porcelain collections so the architectural features of the house shone. Long-term neighbors and friends com...

Michelle Pais is the best REALTOR in New Jersey, bar none. If you want to sell your house quickly and at a top price, I highly recommend that you hire her and her team at Signature Realty. We first tried the local REALTORS in Warren Township and they were a disaster. None of them knew how to price our home, or how to stage it and market it. After 6 months we barely had any showings and no decent offers. Then they want you to repaint your house...

It was great working with Michelle, Galo, Silvia, and the rest of the team at Signature Realty. We decided to sell our house to capitalize on increased house prices. Michelle's understanding of the housing market and trends in house prices meant that our house was priced right to sell fast. Our house was listed on a Friday, and Galo called me the next day to tell me we had multiple bids, with bids still coming in. We accepted the highest bid t...

We sold our home in Westfield with a Signature recently. Silvia and Galo were our main points of contact throughout the listing, showings, contract, and sale. They were highly responsive and had good communication skills and local knowledge. We were under contract for approximately 2 weeks and our closing went smoothly. They did an excellent job with marketing and outreach. They really invested the time and money to do virtual tours, matter po...

I initially contacted Michelle prior to the pandemic to get a sense of what my house could list for as I was on the fence about putting it up for sale. She provided very honest and open feedback on what I could do to improve the likelihood of success in a very competitive market. Once the pandemic hit, I invited her back for a reassessment and her team was quick to hit the ground running. My process was very quick, a short 2-3 month turnaround...

Michelle walked into our home and gave us the confidence that now was the right time to sell, and that we could absolutely capitalize on the market at a time when that didn't necessarily seem to be possible. After signing up, we were taken care of by her entire team from opening to close, with the constant communication, updates on the process, troubleshooting, and eventually, getting to a number and signing the contract. Post signing, the tea...

Michelle and her group sold our home. She knew the local market and the value of the home better than any other REALTOR. She had an eye for detail that others lacked, and formulated a plan for marketing and sale only after viewing the property, which was very impressive. Her team managed the dozens of details that arise during the journey to the sale, and Galo's negotiation was professional, friendly to other REALTORS, and able to spot and eli...

What Our Clients Have to Say

Michelle and her team were fantastic. We had already purchased our new home and needed a quick sale and close on our house in Westfield. Michelle had a great feel for how to market the property to maximize exposure. Her team helped us get everything staged and walked us through the process of listing, showing, and fielding offers. We are a family of four with two small children and a dog so we decided to clear out for the showings. In just ove...

Literally never hit the market. Michelle came over to just evaluate as we were just considering our options. She gave us some tips as to what to tidy up and also mentioned might have someone interested. That was a Tuesday. The contractor is scheduled for the following Monday to give us an estimate. That weekend she showed our home on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday to a family who made an offer that night. We accepted. Done. No fixing or showings...

What Our Clients Have to Say

Giselle and Chad were an amazing team who made us feel like their most important client from start to finish. We were very impressed with their marketing strategy, from the preparatory process through the negotiation for sale. Their professional, dynamic, positive, and caring style made selling our home an exciting and relatively stress-free experience- especially when our home sold for more than the listed price in just a couple of days. You ...

We interviewed three agents. One was head and shoulders above the others. Michelle of Signature knows and understands marketing, particularly digital marketing. She is the queen of staging. Even when I disagreed we did it they know their stuff three photographers' beautiful brochures. In three days we had 5 offers. They knew the art of pricing. They are the real pros. Use them so you won't be disappointed. Our house sold 5 days above asking.

Michelle and her team were fantastic. From the listing process through the sale Michelle and her team were there every step of the way. If there was ever a question or topic that needed to be covered/adjusted/explored Michelle and her team were attentive and addressed whatever needed to be done. Many thanks to Michelle and a special shout-out to Silvia as well.

We had a wonderful experience working with Michelle and her team on the recent sale of our home. Michelle and her team took care of every need, always kept us in the loop, and found the very best buyer for our family and situation. We feel so lucky to have worked with Michelle and her team.

Nothing less than 5 stars for this reality group. I worked with Giselle Acevedo and she continues to come through for me long after the sale. I purchased a townhouse all the while I was in Texas. I was lucky to find Giselle, and couldn't be happier.

They are the best team around. They sold 3 houses for us in less than a month of being put on the market. They know what they are doing and they do it very well. Everyone on the team was very responsive and easy to work with.
