"If you are looking for attention to detail when selling or buying a home, Kelly of Leaf is the realtor you should call. We have completed numerous real estate transactions during our 25 years in Tewksbury Township and never have we experienced such a high level of professionalism. Her well crafted home descriptions, eye for photography, savvy negotiation skills and enthusiasm are the reasons we chose Kelly to represent our home over better known, larger local area Realtors. Simply put, Kelly gets it! As former advertising creatives and current interior designers, we know how important positioning and marketing are. Kelly proved to be a master of both."

Kelly and her associates at Leaf, steered me wisely through the many hurdles to finally purchase my house. Her selflessness and vast knowledge of the area, septic systems, house inspections, appraisals, tank sweeps, and even sagely bidding for the house, is incredible.

Working with Kelly was a pleasure! She was professional, responsive and she sold our house quickly! It was a stressful time selling our house and we appreciated her reassurance and experience. We highly recommend her.

Kelly helped us sell our large farm after we failed to sell with another well respected realtor in the area. Kelly's expertise, respect, discretion, sensitivity to our needs and expectations are unequaled. Her understanding of our property was of enormous value when showing the farm to potential buyers enabling her to communicate in a way that would maximize their perception of the value of the property, in addition to her strategic approach to negotiations.

Kelly is the best combination of professional efficiency and warm personable ally. She really listens to you and hears what you want. She is speedy and efficient when you ask questions and gets you answers fast. We met dozens of realtors in NJ over the past few years, and without a doubt found Kelly to have the best skills with the best disposition. We would recommend her highly!!

Selling a home is not always easy. There are emotional ties, financial ties and so many variables. Kelly, first and foremost, listened to all of the details that were important to us and for her to convey to the buyers. We were always on the same page and we appreciated that immensely. And she was there every step of the way with us. Her knowledge, honesty, integrity and follow through were top notch. We are very grateful to have worked with Kelly and would recommend her wholeheartedly.

We had an extremely positive experience selling our house, due in large part to Kelly's experience, network, and professionalism. She's smart, she listens, and gives great advice without being pushy. She knows how to stage a home really well and uses a great photographer. She helped us to sell our house quickly without lowballing on the price - which was critical for us because we had already closed on our new house.

Kelly founded Leaf, Realtors® in 2011 after 12 years of experience in residential real estate in the Hunterdon/Somerset/Morris county area. Originally licensed in New Jersey as a salesperson in 1999, Kelly has been licensed as a broker since 2003 and was first licensed as a real estate instructor in 2004.

As a salesperson in the Weichert, Realtors®’ Chester New Jersey sales office, Kelly consistently earned top honors in her company as a sales agent (Ambassador’s Club and Executive’s Club) while serving as a mentor to several new agents who went on to distinguish themselves as top producers. As the manager of the Weichert, Realtors® office in Basking Ridge, New Jersey where she began her real estate sales office management experience in 2003, Kelly was responsible for the recruiting, training, and coaching of a sales team of up to 59 agents including several top-performing agents. In August of 2010, Kelly became the manager of Weichert’s Oldwick, New Jersey sales office where she was able to combine her real estate sales office management experience with her knowledge of the local market to the office’s best advantage in working with top producers as well as newly-licensed agents.

Kelly is a member of the Garden State Multiple Listing Service (GSMLS) and the National Association of Realtors® (NAR).
