Ann Mccarthy

Like many others, Ann followed a friend to Montclair. It was 1998 and she was in Hoboken with her husband and one-year-old daughter, pregnant with their second. She loved Hoboken and was nervous leaving. Her friend assured me Montclair had what we were looking for, so away they went.

Here in Montclair, they have practically everything you could ask for, including a diverse population that makes everything about the town culturally rich. Ann has put two daughters through the fantastic public schools, taken countless dogs on adventures through the two magnificent reservations that flank the town, served on several boards, and been involved in many community groups that have given her a broad and far-reaching understanding of who her neighbors are. Ann can honestly say that whoever you are … whatever you’re looking for … there’s some of it going on right here in Montclair.

Ann has spent most of her working life in PR and marketing as a producer – mostly producing live events. There are few endeavors that require as much coordination, flexibility, and cool headedness. Moving is often a series of big decisions, which can be stressful. Not only am Ann happy to relieve clients of that stress, but also, she will call upon her bone-deep faith that things always work out and infect them with the kind of positivity that makes even the most unpredictable situations a delightful adventure.

Ann is a People Person with a glass-is-half-full outlook. Someone recently asked her what she thought her “superpower” was, and she at once answered, “my sense of humor.” Why is this valuable in a real estate transaction? Anyone who has ever bought or sold a home intrinsically understands the answer to that.
