Allison Ziefert Realtor Maplewood, NJ Local Real Estate Expert For Sellers & Buyers

Allison Ziefert

After a decade in real estate I love my job more than ever. I am blessed to have a career that combines several of my passions– architecture and design, building community and helping people.

I am a founding agent of Compass NJ where I lead a top-producing team.

Before I became a realtor, I worked as a project manager for a large construction management firm, ran a downtown development organization and worked in local politics. I studied Art History at Barnard College and received a degree in Urban Planning and Historic Preservation from Columbia University. My educational background and work experience have given me a unique skill set that is an added value for my clients. I enjoy meeting and working with all kinds of people and I never get tired of looking at houses!

I grew up in Pittsburgh, PA and have lived in Maplewood/South Orange since 1995. I have three children- two who are out on their own and one in high school. You’ll often see me out on long walks in my neighborhood with my dachshund, Archie. I also love fitness classes, cooking and antiquing.

“Jaime is amazing! Never a moment when she can not be reached, always quick to return with info and provide guidance on all things home buying. We were first time pandemic home buyers and to say the market was a … challenge is an understatement. Jaime helped us at the beginning by getting us up to speed on process, guided us each weekend as we went to open houses and showings and seamlessly took us to closing! Couldn't recommend her more.” Show More

“Ginge and the entire team at the Allison Ziefert Real Estate Group are truly the best. We entered in to a very very competitive and at times discouraging real estate market, and Ginge guided us through the process every step … of the way. I couldn't imagine having a better experience with anyone else, and when it was all done, we landed a home that exceeded our expectations - in huge part due to Ginge. If you're shopping around for a realtor in the SOMA area, I highly suggest you stop now and work with this team. You won't find anyone better.” Show More

“Jaime & the AZ team are a dream to work with! We would highly recommend using them to buy or sell your next home. Jaime is a fast and hard worker and literally never stops. We found our house in … a few weeks and we actually were able to come in under asking price which was unheard of in this wild market. Jaime is a great negotiator and super professional at all times. We were lucky to work with her & the team.” Show More

“Ginge operates on another level. Full stop. With Ginge by our side, we navigated the SOMAWO housing market during the Pandemic. With historic low inventory and ultra-high competition, Ginge was a constant force of information, education, and transparency. Through Ginge's … quality relationships and outside-the-box approach, we found a completely renovated house with charm in all the right places. Plus, the view is pretty good too. All of this would not be possible without Ginge.” Show More

“Jaime was an absolutely amazing to work with. We wouldn't have been able to find our dream house without her help. This was our first home purchase and we had tons of questions daily. She was so quick to reply to … any questions with easy to understand language. From day one to closing she was helpful and genuine. I can't thank her enough for her consistent hard work. When you're working with a passionate person, you feel you are being taken care of and supported. That's how I felt from beginning to end working with Jaime. I would 100% recommend her to anybody who is looking for their dream house. Thank you Jaime !” Show More

“When we decided to move to the SOMAWO area I knew that the only way we would be able to secure a house in this competitive neighborhood was with an extremely savvy, critical thinker, powerhouse of a realtor. And when I met Ginge, … I immediately knew that she was the one that fit this criterion. In the craziest real estate market in history, i.e, no inventory, lots of competition - Ginge found our house. But not just any house - an off-market completely renovated home completely exclusive to us. A literal diamond in the rough. Ginge used her outside-of-the-box thinking, her keen knowledge of the West Orange area, and her relationships to make this happen. Without Ginge, I would still be refreshing Zillow several thousand times a day in a puddle of tears. Instead, I’m now enjoying my refinished backyard patio in the West Orange sun. If you’re losing hope in this crazy pandemic market, give Ginge a call. She will work tirelessly and strategically to find you your dream home. Mike, Erin & Leo” Show More
