    Born and raised in New Jersey, Joe earned his Undergraduate and Masters degrees from Fairleigh Dickinson University and has kept on the pulse of the New Jersey marketplace ever since.

He took action to make his dream a reality by studying for and obtaining his real estate license in Hoboken, NJ. By 1995, Joe knew it was time to bring his vision to far more people than he alone could reach, so he opened the first Liberty Realty office. instilling in each Liberty agent their commitment to providing professional, caring, honest, and diligent service to each and every client.

    Joe has made a lasting impression on Hudson County real estate because Liberty Realty has become a major thought leader in Hudson County real estate. Joe was an early innovator in the digital marketplace, seeking and providing solutions that were far ahead of the curve by designing and refining the Liberty Realty website, which presents market-leading customer interface, real time inventory updates, and vital MLS integration. In order to become the leading local non-chain agency, Liberty needed to be able to offer its agents and clients as much support as the national corporations, therefore after over 10 years of massive growth, Joe and his business partners expanded the Liberty brand with full range agent services in the Hoboken-based Corporate Center. Joe currently serves on the Board of Directors for the Hudson County MLS and is a member of the Ethics Committee.

Every single day, Liberty Realty agents help people find their dream homes, provide unique and cutting-edge market knowledge to those looking to list their homes for sale, and help ensure their own financial wellbeing through real estate investment. Joe is just as dedicated to these outcomes today as the day he started, and is proud to cheer for the entire Liberty team.
