“After living in New York City and returning to Maplewood with my husband, I often wondered if doing so was the right choice. Three children and two dogs later, I can say it was.”

Now a native Maplewoodian, Diane Malloy believes there’s no better area than northern New Jersey to put down roots. Whether you’re raising a family, just starting out, relocating, or ready for a change, the communities in northern NJ are the most vibrant, caring, soulful and welcoming around. The beautiful architecture, local shopping, and easy commute to NYC and Brooklyn can’t be beat.

Diane’s commitment to her community contributes to her deep understanding of the area. From playing on club tennis teams to serving on the Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) and Home & School Association (HSA) Boards as Treasurer and Cultural Affairs Chair, respectively—and now, as Executive Director of a local non-profit serving the local teen population—experiences in the community keep Diane in the know. Her professional (marketing and development) and educational (MBA, Columbia University) background and the skills they bring will work for you.

Whether it’s listening to your wish list or negotiating for your best interest, personal client service is what you’ll get with Diane. When you call, you will speak directly with Diane. She’s patient but will not let opportunities pass you by in the real estate market.

If you're listing your home, Diane’s extensive knowledge of the northern New Jersey communities will guide the pricing strategy, and her marketing experience will help get the house maximum exposure. Experienced in staging homes in Short Hills, Maplewood, South Orange, and Montclair, she will help you gain valuable input from staging professionals.

“Buying and selling homes is just one part of what I love to do. More importantly, I like to be a part of building our communities, welcoming new neighbors, and guiding those who are moving elsewhere. Let me help you make the ‘right choice’ for you!”
