"2025 was a whirlwind for our family. During recovery from surgery we asked our dear friend and realtor Laura Coutts to come by and help us decide on a next project for our 73 year old expanded ranch in Mendham Borough. Following a thorough tour and fun conversation, Laura suggested some updates and mentioned maybe feeling the market to sell as our children were grown and gone. Laura introduced the 3 point sales system that Compass utilized and it sounded like a reasonable way to dip our foot in the waters of selling. She asked our ā€œmake me moveā€ price and we were off to the races. Laura suggested a painter and flooring contractor who were both outstanding and reasonably priced. Next thing we knew, we showed our home to a lovely young couple prior to fully coming to market. Knowing our goals and with Laura serving as dual agents, we were presented with an amazing offer which provided above asking price as well as the 3 months we needed to move out of our home of 21 years. We cannot recommend Laura enough for her diligence, patience, and in-depth knowledge of Mendham and the surrounding markets. The process was simple and all parties were happy with the outcome.

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Laura Coutts - a Compass real estate agent - to sell a home in Hackettstown, New Jersey, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. From our very first meeting, Laura demonstrated an exceptional level of professionalism, knowledge, and dedication. I am a real estate broker in CA and have been in the business for several years and worked with agents all across the US. I needed a top agent to help find a perfect home for a Military non-profit Purple Heart recipient. Laura was the absolute best agent for the job. She is among the top agents that I have worked with in the past and plan on using her again with any properties in the New Jersey market. I highly recommend Laura to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Her expertise, integrity, and commitment to client satisfaction made the entire process stress-free and successful." - BILL DERIDDER | COMPASS REFERRAL AGENT | SAN DIEGO

"Working with Laura was the best decision we could have made. She’s one of those rare people who’s not only incredible at what she does but also genuinely cares about you as a person. From the first conversation, she made us feel comfortable, informed, and confident that we were in the best hands possible. We had just had a baby when we started our search, and Laura was there for us every step of the way. She always responded right away, no matter the time, and somehow managed to make the entire process feel smooth and stress-free. She’s organized, proactive, and completely honest about what’s a good fit and what isn’t, which we appreciated so much. Her expertise is next-level. She notices things most people would overlook and protects her clients like family. When she pointed out potential issues in a home before we even realized them, it was clear how experienced and thorough she is. What stood out most is how available she always is for her clients. No matter how small the question or concern, she’ll make time for you and make sure you feel taken care of. That level of dedication is rare and something we’ll never forget. We’re so grateful for everything she did for us and will recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Laura is simply the best." - TOM LANDERS | BUYER | DENVILLE

"If you want someone to advocate for you and treat you like family, you have to work with Laura Coutts. She is the sweetest human, but also the most knowledgeable and hardworking agent ever. I swear she doesn’t sleep! We had just had a baby, so we were texting her all hours of the day, and she always responds immediately! Questions? Concerns? She is there to answer them all and make you feel calm. She is organized, sending you everything that meets your criteria, but also very honest, telling you what she thinks isn’t a good match. She is experienced and so good at her job! The cherry on top is when she stocked our fridge at our new home because she wanted to make sure we’re taken care of. That’s the person you want on your side. Honestly, I am sad that our process is over because I’m going to miss talking to her everyday. I’m referring her to everyone I know!" - DANA YANG | BUYER | DENVILLE

"Laura is an outstanding realtor with stellar attributes across multiple fronts. Her knowledge of the local market is superior given her own tenure as a resident as well as realtor experience. She makes it her responsibility to truly understand the market - its history - what's available - and truly looking to objectively make the right match. This is so key in ensuring efficient time is spent by all parties - buyers and sellers. Her hustle is like no one else's. She is not waiting for a deal to happen, she is doing everything possible to make it happen - marketing, showing, advertising, networking, open housing. She is relentless with ensuring maximum visibility. No one will work harder for you. She is extremely self-sacrificing - working 24 by 7 - countless times she's dropped whatever plans she had to arrange a showing - contacted us when away on vacation to arrange opportunities. She is very objective - listens to her clients but provides constructive and honest feedback. We can't say enough about Laura and recommend her 1000%.!" - ALEXANDRA ZAWADIWSKY | SELLER | MENDHAM
