"Marsha was an absolute pleasure to work with. She listed our home quickly, and it wasn’t long after that that we had multiple competitive offers come in. Through no fault of her own, it took longer than expected for our home to actually sell -- but Marsha never let us become discouraged and she made sure she saw the sale through all the way to the end. Moreover, Marsha clearly has her clients’ best interests at heart. Our situation was somewhat unique in that we (the sellers) were not actually local by the time we were selling our home. So Marsha essentially acted as our local proxy throughout the entire process. She was super responsive over both email and phone, and she fiercely advocated for us at every turn, including every time she interfaced with someone on our behalf. Marsha was also highly knowledgeable about all the laws and regulations pertinent to our sale, including the ins and outs of selling condos. I recommend Marsha to anyone looking to buy or sell their home"

  -Ilona Bass, Client

"Marsha was extremely kind, patient, polite, informative, and very encouraging me to get this house. She had suggested the bid I should do for the home, and told me to go with what she suggests and explained what the other bids would be if i didn't, and i would miss my opportunity. I went with her suggestion and I was able to beat out 5 other potential buyers for the home. Marsha was able to guide me with the Mortgage process, was able to help me find a lawyer that would be able to negotiate the inspections, the exact down payment i would need, and what she would be able to do so that way I would stay locked in for the day of the closing. The bank was exactly as she said and my down payment, my credit rating, my career standing were all approved. I will say this now: Marsha is your go to 100%. No questions asked. She helped myself- a 36 millennials dream come true after so many years of hard work pay off, and Honestly, if it wasn't for her? I wouldn't not be here right now. "

"I had a great experience working with Marsha. I couldn’t believe how responsive she was to all of my requests and questions, and she knew far more than we ever hoped to about the process of selling a house.

I appreciate her so much and I'm glad that she was a part of this process with me. "

If you want a realtor with friendly results hire Marsha Bowen Washington."

She takes the time to making your new home a reality. You are not only getting a great realtor, but someone who treats you like a friend. All of the testimonies are true: 1. Professional 2. Expert 3. Friendly 4. Quality Service, etc Marsha is an asset to her profession!!! NOTE: Marsha was my third agent in four years. She was more that able to deal with my concerns about the process of buying a home. As an agent Marsha is FABULOUS!!!

At the time, I knew that she would be my realtor. She has brought and sold hundreds of homes over the years. Marsha Stand Out Among The Best AGENTS!!!!!"

Her knowledge and expertise made what can be a stressful situation, completely painless. She was always available to (patiently) answer our questions. We did have some concerns, as there were several homes in our neighborhood and on our street that were also being sold.

"I would highly recommend Marsha Bowen Washington for any real estate needs. In fact, for any need in general. Marsha was our realtor, counselor and friend. Given the crazy real estate market finding our property took a bit of time but Marsha was diligent, patient and truly felt in our corner to get us the property we were looking for at the price point we wanted. In fact, by the end of the experience she felt like family. Beyond her expertise in real estate she is well connected and has recommendations and referrals for any aspect of your home buying needs (lendors, lawyers, surveyors, contractors, etc.). I would highly recommend Marsha and have already solicited her services again as we leveraged her expertise to help find a tenant for an apartment in our property."

"Our experience with Five Star Real Estate Winner Extraordinaire, and Essex County Top Real Estate Agent for 2020-2023, Marsha Bowen Washington, was a blur. That’s why, without any hesitation, we contacted her again when we wanted to sell our house to relocate. We knew that she would be dedicated to selling our home in a timely manner and that the entire process, with all its integral steps, would be seamless. She would work tirelessly on our behalf. We were right! Our target date for the sale of our house was early summer; we were confident it would happen with her solid expertise and without any drama. We knew she would fully guide and “educate” us in our new journey. Despite administrative and other delays on the buyer’s lender’s side, she fought for us, and we won. We now know for sure that Marsha Bowen Washington eats, drinks, and sleeps real estate and is a force to be reckoned with in the ever-changing world of home buying and selling."

  -Thomas and Hortense DuVall, Client

"I rarely write reviews, but I have to write a 5 Star ?? ?? review for Marsha. She helped me to purchase my first house in my life. I cannot be happier and luckier with the professional help from Marsha. As a first-time home buyer, I had neither practical experience nor extensive knowledge in the purchasing process, sometimes I strongly felt that I wouldn’t be able to get the house due to various reasons as the purchasing process includes several tasks that need to be all accomplished. If you are a homeowner, you would have known what I meant. But if you are a first time buyer and are considering or looking to buy your first home, you need an experienced and knowledgable real estate professional to guide you through from the first day of seeing a house till moving into the house. There are many talented and excellent real eastate processionals in the market, but when the time comes for me to buy my second home, Marsha shall be my first choice as my real estate agent."

  -Ethan, Client

"Ms. Washington is an excellent real estate agent. I initially contacted several agents and decided that Ms. Washington was the most knowledgeable and experienced. I was selling an apartment that I had been renting out for the past 8 years. She already had sold many units in the building. Shortly after our first meeting, we immediately had several offers after only a weekend of showings. While the first offer unfortunately fell through, I was really impressed that Ms. Washington soon found a new buyer and had a selling price that I was very satisfied with. Although I was on vacation with my family during the closing date, the real estate attorney that Ms. Washington recommended did all the documentation prior to my departure, and we successfully closed, while I was away. Most of the paperwork throughout was completed online, which was very convenient. I highly recommend Ms. Washington for her knowledge, experience, and caring during the apartment selling process, Thank you!"

  -Christian S. , Client

"Marsha helped to make our home selling experience feel like such a breeze. Selling a home can be a very tedious and exhausting process all by itself, but with the right agent, they can help alleviate some of that stress. Marsha was definitely that for us. We went into it not knowing what to expect, or what to do, yet from start to finish, Marsha was there to guide and help us through the process. She was nothing short of professional, informative, and patient. She always made herself available for any questions and concerns we had. Her experience and knowledge shows by how she informed us on what she recommended we do when we had to face some hurtles along the way. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone buying or selling in NJ. She does not disappoint. Thank you again Marsha!!"

Marsha understands the ins and outs of the industry and was a wealth of knowledge on the entire process. She was always available to answer our questions whenever we called. She directed us on what questions to ask our attorney and even gave us recommendations on contractors to use when we had some last minute repairs to do during the selling process.

Ms. Washington arrived promptly to conduct a walkthrough of the home and when she sat down with us, she listened to our concerns and needs and devised a plan to sell the house quickly. I was really impressed with her network of buyers who she thought might be interested in the home. She arranged for them to come through to see the property and within a week, she produced an offer from pre-approved buyers who were interested in the property; and we had a signed contract shortly thereafter. Having closed a couple days ago, my aunt is relieved, excited to have the sale behind her; and looking forward to relocating.
