"Caitlin was a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend her! She worked tirelessly on my behalf to help me find exactly what I looking for. Her thorough knowledge of the market and professional approach made her the consummate realtor. I look forward to working with her again in the future!" - Andy


"My husband and I are first time homebuyers, and choosing Caitlin as our realtor was THE BEST decision ever! With the rising interested rates and a lease almost up, we felt a but of pressure to find a home and close fast. Caitlin was always supportive, responsive, personable, and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. There were some emotional times, and Caitlin would take my calls (on some late nights) to calm me down and remind me about the journey that is home buying. She was transparent about the process and communicative about each and every step from the very beginning to the very end. Her referrals were also outstanding and helped us to close fast and smooth. We are so happy we worked with Caitlin and would recommend her a thousand times over. Thank you Caitlin for helping us find the home we love!!" - Nicole


"Caitlin is a team. As a first time home-buyer, Caitlin made the process extremely smooth. For each of the moving pieces of the process, from attorneys, to inspectors, to contractors, to movers Caitlin had a name who provided the same expert and friendly advise and support as she did. The communication was always smooth and within a month, Caitlin placed us in a our dream home."


About Caitlin
A fourth-generation Essex County resident, Caitlin DiRuggiero is a trusted, hardworking, goal-oriented real estate agent with deep expertise in both the residential and commercial markets. She founded CityWest with her business partner and childhood friend, Angela McCaffrey, to help clients make well informed real estate decisions and find their absolute dream homes & sell their lifelong homes. 

Though Caitlin has been an agent for over a decade, she was introduced to the real estate world even earlier at a young age by her father who worked in commercial real estate in Manhattan. In Caitlin, he instilled a steadfast work ethic and the resolute belief that everyone deserves the same respect no matter who they are.

Caitlin believes that it’s incumbent upon her to do all that she can to serve the best interests of her clients, which includes being honest with them and setting realistic expectations when necessary. She remains calm in even the most stressful situations and looks to impart the same sense of focus and confidence in her clients by ensuring they are well informed throughout a transaction and are empowered to make confident, wise decisions.

Since earning her marketing degree from the University of Scranton, Caitlin has not only put her business savvy to work in real estate, but also co-founded & sold, COREFIRE, a multi-award-winning fitness studio with Angela when she was just 25 years old. Cailtin and Angela also share two bulldogs, deliciously named Ziti and Cutlet.

A big believer in the power of community, Caitlin sits on the board for The Arc of Essex County and is Alumni Council president at The Montclair Kimberley Academy, where she attended high school. When she’s not working, she’s likely golfing, with family & friends, surfing or hanging out at the beach.
