I write to you in connection with my excellent experience with commercial realtors Susanne Newmark and Marjorie Murphy who are affiliated with Newmark Associates. I initially met Susanne and Marjorie when my law firm decided to move from Bedminster where we had offices for thirty years to Bernardsville. They listened carefully to our requirements and ultimately found us the perfect location where we have been happily ensconced for the past four years. In finding us the perfect location they were sensitive to our time constraints and budget. When an important client of mine decided to sell his family business consisting of a large flex space industrial/office park I immediately thought of Susanne and Marjorie to assist us with the sale. I was greatly impressed by their knowledge and experience and their keen ability to evaluate the property. They relentlessly poured through property information including dozens of lease agreements to extract maximum value and pinpoint growth opportunities for the property. Their efforts resulted in an excellent and well-substantiated list price which attracted multiple perspective buyers. My client and I were pleased with Susanne and Marjorie's dedication to an optimum sale price for the commercial property. This property was the linchpin of a generational family business. It was therefore vitally important for him to obtain a price which reflected the value he and his parents had created in their core business. In a short period of time Newmark found an excellent buyer whi paid top dollar but who also, due to Susanne and Marjorie's hard work and expertise, understood the growth potential in his purchase. My client was able to comfortable retire knowing that his family's hard work had been fairly rewarded. In addition to their experience, expertise, knowledge and dedication, Marjorie and Susanne are a pleasure to work with. If and when the need arises for my firm or any of our clients, they will always be my "go to" for commercial real estate. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. Very truly yours, Elizabeth C. Flanagan

Marjorie Dorne Murphy Recommendation

March 20, 2024 To whom it may concern: I would like to take this opportunity to speak about one of your agents. Ms. Melillo was referred to me to help sell my professional office space in Edison, NJ. She was the first real estate agent I interviewed for this sale and was so impressed I gave her an exclusive to the property. Her dedication to sales and trying to get me the highest sale price only could have happened because of her experience and expertise in your field. She worked diligently interfacing with Hackensack University JFK Medical Center's real estate division and their legal department for months putting the deal together and as mentioned getting me the highest sale price for the property. Jeannette Melillo is a consummate professional, an expert and I am sure a great asset to your company. I am sure she is someone that should be considered for future upward growth within your company as well. I would recommend her without any reservation and a true pleasure to work with. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Respectfully, Paul M. Figlia MD  

Jeannette Melillo Recommendation

Nancy and Susanne, My Co-Founder and I recently had the great pleasure of working with your colleague Jeannette Melillo for leasing 2333 Morris Ave, Union, NJ, and I couldn't be happier with the experience and would request to work with her going forward and grow our business with her. From the very beginning, Jeannette had a high level of professionalism, and expertise. Her team (Jack Maier) was very dedicated to understanding our needs and transparent if some locations did not fit our needs. Then she curated a list of properties that aligned perfectly with our business requirements and came with us to the showings. One aspect that sets Jeannette apart from others that I worked with in the field is her communication. She was always accessible and ensured to keep us in the loop at every step of the process. She promptly answered our questions, provided valuable insights, and kept us informed about every communication with the landlords and developments. Her responsiveness and willingness to go the extra mile to ensure we were well-informed with every decision was remarkable such as even getting on calls with us Sunday nights to walk us through options. Negotiation is an area where Jeannette truly excelled. Their skillful negotiation tactics led to a favorable outcome, resulting in terms that we were extremely satisfied with. Furthermore, Jeannette's network of professionals, such as lawyers, made the entire process smooth and efficient. Above all, Jeannette exhibited a genuine passion for helping clients find the best location. It's evident that they take pride in their work and prioritize her clients' needs and satisfaction. Her transparency and honesty fostered a level of trust that made me feel comfortable every step of the way and look forward to continuing to work with her. Manusha Chereddy

Jeannette Melillo – Review

Dear Susan Newmark,

This letter is a letter of recommendation for Real Estate Agent Jeannette Melilo. She recently went above and beyond to assist me with the lease of my business space in Montclair, NJ. Jeannette is an amazing person with qualities that made her an effective broker and the perfect one for me.

I cannot say enough about her professionalism and knowledge of my industry. I had a unique space requirement and her understanding of my industry helped lead to an efficient search. She conducted herself with high integrity and remained persistent, always keeping my best interest in mind. Despite my real estate purchase being a small transaction, Jeannette treated me with the same professionalism and courtesies as a large firm. I always felt like I was a priority on her list.

Jeannette did a great job of listening to my objectives, doing the research, and responding to my requests. She stayed firm in my terms and negotiated a fair price that I could not have done without her. It was an absolute pleasure working with her. I have a high level of confidence in Jeannette and would recommend her to anyone that crosses my path in need of commercial real estate.

Sincerely, Charity Hill

It is with much gratitude and appreciation we would like to thank you Marjorie, and David, for the difficult job you took on to sell our property. You were so understanding and kind, we knew you really cared. You kept us feeling optimistic even though we knew it wasn’t going to be an easy sale. And here we are today - closing complete - and we are off to a new phase of our lives thanks to both of you!! With kindest regards Bob and Myrt Ober

Thank you!

Hi Susanne, I wanted to tell you how pleased I am with the services provided by Judy Feldman and Jeanette Melillo.

I wanted to let you know personally what a pleasure it is to work with James. I realize that he is young and probably just starting out, but I find him to be really dedicated to his profession. He loves it and it shows. I feel he has been a real partner to us through this whole process.

Working with Helene is like winning the agent lottery. She listens to your needs, finds you the right property for the right price, and holds your hand through the whole process. She always goes well above the call of duty.  Helene, thank you for being the best agent anyone could ever ask for.
