"Jamie Aloia is beyond a fabulous realtor! She helped us buy and sell our home. We have been in Maplewood for over a decade and have always had our eye on the market. Jamie was amazing to work with, she let us schlep our kids to tons of showings, would take us post bedtime, and tried to keep our spirits up in this wild market. We feel so lucky to have found her and I wanted to pass her name along in case others are in the same boat and want someone who knows the area super well and is just a generally lovely human! "

"Jamie Aloia was absolutely essential in our home purchasing process, and truly was a voice of reason from start to finish. We met Jamie at an open house and loved her so much we got her info and began our search with her. She was incredibly patient and understanding of our timing, our personal needs, and searching for "the one". Her expert knowledge of the industry helped to guide us through the strategy, legality, and logistics that come with buying a home. We could not be more grateful for her advice, kindness, and keeping us on track when we needed it. Cannot recommend her services more, she is the best! "

"We are so lucky to have met Jamie at an open house early in our home search. As first-time homebuyers, we relied on Jamie’s knowledge of the home-buying process and the different towns/neighborhoods (which she’s truly an expert in given she grew up in West Orange!). She patiently guided us through all our questions, helped us focus our search and eventually land our dream house in Maplewood. It also helped that Jamie knew exactly where we were coming from, as a young family moving from Brooklyn to the suburbs. And she is very down to earth and easy to work with, which helps when you’re spending every weekend together. If you are looking for a realtor in New Jersey I would highly recommend Jamie Aloia! "

"I can’t recommend Jamie Aloia highly enough! As first-time homebuyers, my fiancé and I had no idea where to begin—but Jamie was the best guide through the entire process. She was honest, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive. Her expertise gave us valuable perspective, yet she also encouraged us to learn and make informed decisions on our own. Jamie knows the New Jersey market inside and out, especially when it comes to great areas for NYC commuters. Her strong network of professionals made every step—loan, legal, and inspection—run smoothly and even ahead of schedule, which helped us close early. We now live just down the street from Jamie in West Orange, NJ, and are so grateful for all the hard work she put into helping us find our first home. If you’re looking to buy or sell, do yourself a favor and work with Jamie—she is the best! "

"Working with Jamie has been an absolute gift. From our very first conversation, it was clear that she brings a rare blend of caring, efficiency, and strategic savvy to the work of both buying and selling your home. Jamie took the time to truly understand our needs and, as a result, we confidently navigated upsizing into our next home and then quickly selling our first home. What sets Jamie apart is her ability to be both warm and relentlessly effective. She navigates the market with the deep expertise that only a local can provide. She offers smart, data-informed advice while also making you feel completely supported and at ease. Every recommendation Jamie made-whether about pricing, timing, staging, or negotiation-was spot-on and grounded in a strategic plan she executed flawlessly.

"Calling Jamie a great realtor is an understatement. From the beginning of our house hunt, Jamie was a great listener and teacher. We trusted her opinions and advice. Her communication was impeccable; she kept us informed every step of the way without overwhelming us. Jamie knows the real estate game—she helped us strategize and build the best offers we could without over extending ourselves in a competitive market. She helped us prioritize what mattered to us and what we really wanted in our future home. We truly appreciate the time and hard work she put into our house purchase process. We highly recommend you use her if you want the house of your dreams! "

"In early 2022, we started thinking about selling our house. Jamie came and gave us an overview of the market, what our house could realistically be worth, and what our timeline could look like. We put it off until August, when a house came on the market that she said we “had to see.” Surprise- we loved it. We pulled out all the stops to suddenly get preapproved- Jamie came through with multiple options for financing partners to have a quick turnaround on getting all of our documents cleared and our offer in. We didn’t get it. Jamie was professional, helpful, and clear with both helping us process the loss and figuring out our next steps. She pivoted on a dime when we threw her curveball after curveball, answered all of our late night and weekend questions, and drove out to the middle of nowhere on Sunday afternoons to help us find our dream home. When we listed the house we previously owned, Jamie coordinated all the photos, ran the open house, fielded five offers (all over ask), and got us under contract with excellent terms in just 7 days from when we went on the market- we were closed in 30. Jamie was direct, realistic, timely, and put together an incredible team to get us across the finish line both with selling and buying our home in a crazy housing market. We couldn’t have done it without her."

"We were so fortunate to have worked with Jamie to purchase our first home. As our realtor, Jamie helped us find a great house in a great neighborhood for a great price. She was patient and very understanding to accommodate our schedules as we travelled back and forth from NYC (and with a baby!). She was always on our side working to make our house purchase as simple and successful as possible. Jamie is very knowledgeable about the home buying process and works with an excellent team of professionals. She is honest, upfront, as well as extremely communicative and easy to reach. Jamie spent hours answering our questions, providing objective data regarding home buying in this market. She explained everything in a way that was easy to understand from making the offer, to working with the mortgage banker, and real estate lawyer. It was obvious early on that Jamie was more focused on helping us learn about the neighborhoods we were interested in, giving us good advice, and finding homes that met our needs than she was on closing a deal. We highly recommend Jamie to anyone! "

"Jamie and I first met quite a few years ago as coworkers where I knew her as a funny, hard-working and detail-oriented friend. Although our paths went different directions, I was thrilled to learn that she had transitioned to become a realtor in NJ, specializing in the areas that my husband and I were hoping to find a new home for our family. The great qualities I knew of Jamie as a coworker, plus being very patient and flexible, translated perfectly into her being an incredible realtor for us. She showed us several homes that could have worked great for our family, but when we found "the one for us", she confidently guided us through the buying process to ensure we put our best possible foot forward to purchase the perfect house for our family. Once we secured our new home, we couldn't imagine working with anyone else to sell our current home. Jamie sold our home in one weekend, with multiple over-ask offers, in an area that isn't even her main territory. The guidance, patience and expertise she showed us through the whole home buying and selling process is something we'll always be grateful for. "

★★★★★
"I just want to share how wonderful it was to work with Jamie. She was professional and knowledgeable. We felt like she listened and was always responsive. We sold our home at way over ask and we couldn't be happier. Highly recommend. Thank you Jamie and team for working hard to sale our house, working with you made the process a breeze. "

"We're so thankful that we found Jamie. She is organized, personable, motivated, and overall such a delight to work with. She patiently waited for almost a year while we got everything ready and sprang into action as soon as we needed her. She helped us find and close on a house within two months of our first viewing. Highly recommended! "

★★★★★
"Jamie is truly the best! She is the only reason that my husband and I were able to close on the house of our dreams after 15 months of waiting for the home to be ready. Jamie handled every situation thrown our way with tact and professionalism. She guided us, offered advice, kept everything organized and helped us feel at ease the entire time we worked with her. I highly highly recommend Jamie & Compass for your home/buying and selling needs. "
