Let's find your dream home

"From the moment we met Silvia Zappala, we could see that she was someone who was passionate and could get things done.

My husband and I last moved 25+ years ago and were not up to speed on the selling process. Silvia made herself fully available to us, answering our questions any time of day. She was completely hands on from day 1 until we closed on our new house (and beyond). She stopped by multiple times to help guide us through the process and ensure that we were on track. When there were milestones we were not meeting, Silvia stepped in and either got her hands dirty to help us or connected us with resources to get us back on our timeline. Specifically, she gave us referrals for painters, a handyman, a cleaning service, and an electrician—all of whom were excellent and who we have since recommended to our friends.

Now on to the staging: Silvia staged our home so beautifully, I almost didn’t want to move out. She wears many hats, and one of them is interior decorator. I could not believe my nearly 100-year-old house could look so chic with just a few of her artistic touches.

And for the grand event: The open house that followed attracted a record number of potential buyers, netting nearly 50 offers--more than we ever could have imagined, and most of which were much higher than the asking price. We attribute this to Silvia’s tireless work ethic and deep knowledge of the industry. She is clearly someone who loves her job and loves to see her clients reach their goals. In addition to selling our house, Silvia put us in touch with a second realtor who helped us find a new house in another region of the state.

Without question, Silvia Zappala is an amazing realtor and an amazing human being. I cannot give her a higher recommendation and am certain anyone who works with her will feel the same.

"Silvia did an amazing job working with us on our contextual sale and purchase! I can’t say enough about her! She worked extremely hard to ensure that both transactions ran as smoothly as possible. Her business knowledge, experience in the local market, and the care with which she walked us (newbies) through each and every part of the process, quelled our fears and, for sure, lessened the stress.

We absolutely love our new home and can’t imagine ever leaving. However, should we decide otherwise, we will definitely call Silvia again"

"I’m not sure there is a word to describe Silvia. Unicorn? Real Estate Wizard? She is just phenomenal. From the moment you meet Silvia, you will immediately feel her passion, knowledge, and kindness. She was our agent on the selling side for our recent home sake in Verona and we are beyond thankful that we chose her as our agent.

She understands not just the local market, but where the competition stands by the very minute. She will work tirelessly for you every step of the way - from the staging, marketing, open house, contract, inspections, and closing - she remained steadfast throughout.

She always made herself available to us, regardless of what else she had going on. She got multiple offers on our home in a single weekend, exceeding our expectations on the final sale price. Our sale was practically seamless and we know we owe so much of that to Silvia.

If you are looking for a dedicated, experienced, knowledgeable, and kind real estate agent - Silvia is undoubtedly the best in the business. You will absolutely not be disappointed!"

"Our realtor Silvia Zappala deserves 10 stars! As first time buyers my husband and I needed help in narrowing down our needs and wants. We were looking for an affordable home in a family oriented town in Essex County. It took a few months with affordable homes going quickly, but Silvia was on top of it the whole time. She was referred to us by a friend who has had previous experience with Silvias work ethic. Choosing her was the best decision we made! She is personable, responsive, knowledgeable and has great attention to details. We appreciate frequent communication and Silvia delivered. She let us know what to expect during the home buying process and was very responsive. She listened to our needs and budget, and recommended a lender to compare. Silvia was great to work with and answered every question and beyond. She even paid attention to details that as first time buyers we ignored. We have been in our home for the past 3 weeks and absolutely love it. We can’t say enough but a big thank you!"

"We previously worked with Silvia two years ago on an apartment rental. Throughout the past 2 years, we kept in touch and recently, she helped us buy our first home during this very competitve, stressful housing market. We highly reccomend Silvia- as first time home buyers, she walked us through every step of the process and connected us with her expert team, including inspectors and attorney. We had a rather quick, painless closing, and that was largely due to Silvia and her proactiveness, organization, detailed orientation, and savvyness. In comparing agents across our peers, we can confidently say that other agents do not provide the same level of support during the process, reaffirming that Silvia is a superstar!"

"I met Silvia by chance and though I had been communicating with other realtors throughout the past year, I hadn’t felt motivated enough yet to seriously consider purchasing a home.


But Silvia’s warm, welcoming, encouraging demeanor made me want to work with her and inspired me to find my family’s dream home immediately.


Her expertise of the area, legal guidelines, and her wealth of knowledge of property and design features was really impressive. But it was her patience, kindness, and understanding that truly blew us away -- she was accessible and supportive, but also incredibly tenacious and firm when she needed to be.


Silvia advocated for us like a friend and fought for us like family. She noticed things no one else picked up on. She asked the questions my husband and I had never thought to ask. She worked diligently to get us exactly what we wanted, and we couldn’t have asked for more.


She is everything a person would want in a realtor, and I feel so fortunate to have met her, had her in my corner, and to now be able to call her a friend.


I truly look forward to working with Silvia again in the future!

"Silvia helped sell our home recently. She was completely accessible throughout the entire process. Her recommendations on house preparation, evaluating local comps and setting an appropriate and highly competitive target price were on point. Her hands-on staging of our modest home was absolutely game-changing! It was transformative and brought in extensive lines of prospective buyers. She had a vision of how to utilize the current (complicated) market conditions to our advantage and it worked. At a time when buying and selling a home is exceptionally challenging, Silvia’s creative approach was pivotal in getting our home on the market and sold in record time and at a price that was beyond our expectations. It is without any hesitation that I recommend Silvia as a top real estate agent for anyone looking to buy or sell a home."
