Allison Ziefert

I co-lead a top-producing real estate team with my partner, Sarah "Ginge" Calhoun. We specialize in helping buyers and sellers across the Northern NJ suburbs (Maplewood, South Orange, West Orange, Millburn/Short Hills, Montclair, Morristown, Livingston, Bloomfield, Glen Ridge, and nearby towns), communities known for their character, strong schools, and proximity to NYC. With 500+ five-star reviews and a market-leading track record, our clients trust us for strategic pricing, high-impact marketing, and clear, confident guidance.

My listings consistently outperform the market, selling faster and for higher prices than comparable homes. Buyers rely on me to help them compete and win in an ultra-competitive environment. My prior career in construction project management, downtown development, and local government, along with degrees from Barnard College and Columbia University in Art History, Urban Planning, and Historic Preservation, gives me an uncommon combination of market knowledge, design insight, negotiation skill, and strategic thinking that directly benefits my clients.

Originally from Pittsburgh, I've lived in Maplewood and South Orange since 1995 and am deeply rooted in the community through Congregation Beth El and the Jewish Federation of Greater MetroWest's Business & Professional Network. I'm an empty nester with three grown children, and you'll often find me walking my dachshund, Archie, exploring local shops, taking fitness classes, cooking, or hunting for antiques. I genuinely love meeting people, understanding their needs, and helping them find or sell a home with confidence.
