Prudential New Jersey Properties associate earns EcoBroker® designation
New Providence resident helping clients make “eco-friendlier” decisions



NEW PROVIDENCE, NJ (August 25, 2008) – New Providence resident John Carroll – a sales associate with Prudential New Jersey Properties – has earned the EcoBroker® designation, a nationally-recognized title for agents who are trained to advise clients on green initiatives in the real estate industry.

“John is dedicated to staying on top of the latest housing trends in the Union County-area,” says Mike Del Duca, manage of the company’s New Providence office. “As a result of his training, John’s clients will be able to reap the benefits of environmentally friendly real estate.”

The EcoBroker® curriculum equips real estate professionals with the latest energy trends and strategies for consumers looking to become a part of the green market. In addition, agents learn how to help customers potentially lower utility bills and take advantage of government mortgage programs that cover the costs of energy-related improvements.

“Green building concepts are highly valued among today’s home buyers and sellers,” says Carroll. “Targeted, yet minor, updates can help attract potential buyers, while possibly expediting the selling process.”

Information on eco-friendly real estate is available by contacting Carroll at the New Providence office, 1260 Springfield Avenue, 908-464-5200.

Prudential New Jersey Properties’ New Providence office utilizing new, exclusive marketing tool
Prudential Value Range Marketing (PVRM) SM eliminates need for price reductions

NEW PROVIDENCE, NJ (August 19, 2008) – Union County residents now have access to Prudential New Jersey Properties latest innovation in real estate marketing.

This year, the company launched Prudential Value Range Marketing (PVRM) SM, an innovative new program that enables home sellers to list their property within a price range – as opposed to a fixed price – in multiple listing services, including the Garden State Multiple Listing Service. It has become a steady fixture in Prudential New Jersey Properties’ New Providence.

“We are dedicated to providing the best and most innovative services to our clients,” said Mike Del Duca, manager of the New Providence office. “All of our associates have extensive training in value range marketing and can help clients make the best decision about property price ranges.”

Instead of using the traditional fixed pricing method, PVRMSM allows home sellers to list their home within one of 80 preset price ranges. Properties marketed using the new tool appear in more “range of affordability” searches, which increases a home’s exposure, as well as buyers’ interests. Since the intimidation of a fixed price is eliminated, PVRM SM can potentially speed up the selling process while encouraging friendly negotiating practices between two parties.

“Prudential New Jersey Properties’ commitment to providing innovative marketing tools reflects our commitment to yielding excellent results for our clients,” remarks Del Duca.

Information on home buying and selling in the area, access to all real-estate related services, and details about a career in real estate are available by contacting the New Providence office, 1260 Springfield Avenue, at 908-464-5200.
