"My greatest incentive in real estate is not the awards and accolades- it's earning the trust and confidence of my clients. Their satisfaction is what drives me to work hard every day, and it's the single most valuable reward I can receive."

Among the hallmarks of my business that elicit great personal pride are my strong work ethic, integrity, and commitment to customer service excellence. When representing my clients in any negotiation, I strive to obtain the highest and best sales price for their property and resolve any conflicts that may arise, keeping all parties in harmony. I cultivate loyal, trust-based relationships and as a result, have been rewarded a significant number of repeat clients and referrals.
I’ve had great success selling my listings close to or at their listed price and have sold nearly 100% of all of the properties I have listed to date. This is a direct result of my total commitment and the excellent support I provide in order to get the job done. I treat each transaction as if it were my one and only, and by taking personal ownership of my client's transaction, recognize the financial and emotional significance it represents.
While I work with buyers and sellers in all real estate matters throughout Bergen County, I am a specialist in the luxury home marketplace. I possess the knowledge, skill, experience, and poise necessary to effectively manage the sales and marketing requirements unique to these distinctive properties. By providing my trademark superior service, I have earned an excellent reputation in the high-end residential market and have enjoyed a great deal of professional success as a result.
My distinction and value as a REALTOR® is derived from many years of business experience. As part of the corporate world for over 15 years, I developed and perfected skills that I utilize today in real estate. My strong negotiation and organizational skills, as well as leadership and management abilities, are among the fundamental reasons I continue to rank among the top real estate agents in the highly competitive Northern New Jersey marketplace.
Joining Keller Williams Village Square Realty as a professional full-time Real Estate Sales Consultant in March of 2011, I offer Real Estate solutions to your buying, selling and investment needs. As a REALTOR® with extensive knowledge of the Bergen County area, I bring a wealth of experience and strong negotiation expertise to my buyers and sellers.
Fulfilling a lifelong passion for homes, I launched my career in Real Estate following a successful Corporate career spanning over 15 years working for top Fortune 100 companies. Having held various leadership and management positions performing business negotiations at all levels has equipped me with valuable organizational, strategic marketing and solid negotiation skills. My focus always being the facilitation of strong relationships, truly the backbone of my early success.
I have taken this success with me as I now negotiate and facilitate for my buyers and sellers creatively with strong skill and experience through all phases of their Real Estate transactions. I help my clients achieve success!
Within a short period of time I am 'consistently' ranked as one of the top producers in my Keller Williams Village Square Office.

5/2/26Persis Wahba
I highly recommend Phyllis Calianese for any real estate purchase or sale. Working with her was truly the best decision we made for our project. From the very beginning, she demonstrated exceptional knowledge of the area where we purchased our investment property, renovated it, and ultimately resold it.
Phyllis is highly skilled in preparing a home to achieve top dollar and is an expert negotiator who consistently steers her clients toward the strongest possible outcomes. She handled every contract with confidence, strategy, and deep industry expertise, always ensuring we were positioned to receive the highest and best offers.
Throughout the process, Phyllis provided invaluable guidance on market trends, optimal timing, and strategic decisions that ultimately maximized our return. She managed every step seamlessly and connected us with outstanding professionals and trusted vendors, ensuring our renovation met the highest standards of quality and market appeal.
She was consistently responsive, patient, and clear in her communication, always taking the time to answer questions and provide thoughtful, honest advice. Phyllis truly went above and beyond at every stage.
Selling a home can be stressful, but Phyllis made the entire experience feel effortless. Thanks to her expertise, we received an offer within days of listing—more than double what we originally paid—and achieved the highest sale price in the neighborhood, which exceeded all of our expectations.
We couldn’t be more grateful to have worked with Phyllis and would confidently recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, strategic, and dedicated real estate professional.

Phyliss was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. She made the entire transaction feel smooth and seamless, which is something you truly appreciate in this business. Her communication was excellent—always responsive, clear, and proactive every step of the way.
It’s not every day you get to work with someone who brings both professionalism and a positive, collaborative attitude to the table. I truly enjoyed working with Phyliss and would welcome the opportunity to do so again anytime.

She really is a joy to work with & will have your best interest at heart.
