Debbie Williams
Salesperson
#1 Individual Agent 2021 - 2024 Summit Office
Coldwell Banker Realty

" Deborah, quite frankly, was the best realtor I have encountered during my 35 year career during which I moved 12 times throughout the United States with various employers".. 

BC, seller and buyer, Summit

We bought our home through Debbie and had a wonderful experience.  Our search covered a broad area (Summit, Chatham, Madison, Bernards, Westfield) and a range of home types from 100 years old to new construction.  We have very young children and thus were very time constrained and often stressed.   Debbie was prepared, thorough, responsive, flexible and honest.  We could count on her to give us her unvarnished opinion and help us keep perspective.  Debbie helped us get through a challenging process, refine our objectives and was the ultimate professional from beginning to end.

My wife and I have moved a number of times, in New Jersey and Manhattan, and we have worked with and met many real estate agents. Debbie Williams is the best we know. Today’s real estate market is the most challenging in years, and you really need the best agent you can find. Debbie did a great job of guiding us through all the complexities of a house hunt, and of selling our previous residence. If we move again, she would be our first and only choice. And we would recommend her enthusiastically, with no reservations. Debbie Williams has what it takes to do a first-rate job for her clients. She knows the real estate market well, she has good business sense and she really listened to us to find out exactly what we needed and wanted. Unlike some agents, she never wasted our time by trying to push a house that was unsuitable. And she has a warm, open personality, a must when you are spending long hours looking at houses and wrestling with difficult decisions. She never resorted to pressure tactics, or pushed us to accept a house that wasn’t exactly right. She is calm and unflappable, but works very hard and effectively. We learned we could rely on her to give us objective, helpful advice. She did such a good job of finding us a house to buy in Summit that we switched plans and got her to sell our previous residence, a Summit condo, as well—and her business acumen got us the best possible price in both transactions. We were especially impressed by Debbie because we were difficult and demanding clients. We had special needs – not too many stairs, a very quiet neighborhood and so on – and we had lots of time to find just the house we were looking for. Over the course of more than two and a half years, she took us to 50-60 houses. She was patient and tireless, never gave up and assured us that we would find the right house in the end. And we did. We got to know her very well, and cannot imagine a better realtor.

Debbie is the consummate professional. On-time, gracious, attentive to details, proactive but never pushy. She is an expert on what to do to help homeowners to put their best foot forward with the sale of their house.

CL, Seller, Summit

I would highly recommend Debbie. She was honest, professional and very calm during the sale of our home. She was able to sell our home in three days and kept us informed of every detail throughout the process. Great job on Debbie’s part.

JM, Seller, Short Hills

As first time homebuyers, we could not have asked for a better agent than Debbie Williams. Debbie's knowledge of the market, expertise in the process and dedication to her clients helped us find not just a house but a home and neighborhood we love. We had originally said no when we saw the property on paper. Debbie encouraged us to "just take a look". We are so happy we did.

EE, Buyer, Madison

We had an incredible experience with Debbie. We were from Summit which she has a ton of experience in but were exploring a new town, Maplewood, and she was so knowledgeable and helpful in teaching us about the community and the school districts since we have two young kids. She showed us a ton of homes not just to show them but to learn about our preferences, likes and dislikes, to help her get smarter about each house we went to see. She finally helped us find the home we live in today and she moved fast and swift to make sure we were at the top of the heap since there were multiple offers. The amazing part is we were new the process and she also helped every step of the way in educating us, recommending resources and being there we needed support to ensure we were asking the right questions. I would highly recommend Debbie

BP, Buyer, Maplewood

Debbie was the agent when I purchased my house. She was extremely knowledgeable about the area and the market. She was always very accommodating when scheduling appointments. I have several children and lots of activities and Debbie was great about helping set up times that worked to view houses, talk about alternatives and reviewing thoughts on changes that may need to be done on any of the houses we looked at. She was never late for an appointment which was also very important to me as I always seemed to be in a rush. Debbie was very professional in the negotiation process which made my end less stressful. She helped set up all of the inspections and completely followed through with everything even beyond the final signatures on the contract. I would definitely recommend Debbie and I know people that have used Debbie's services to recommend in other parts of the state as she has knowledge of both parts of the shore and the Summit area.

There was no doubt in my mind who I would select when it came time to sell my 90-year old mother's home - it had to be Debbie Williams. Her experience, availability, proactiveness and attention to detail all contributed to a stress-free and efficient process. -- Debbie's advice was spot-on as to what tasks did (and did not) need to be addressed before listing the home. Her network of reputable vendors is impressive - including decluttering, repairs, discarding, inspections, painting and staging. These were all outstanding providers, and they clearly respect and enjoy working with Debbie which made all interactions go so smoothly. -- Debbie has that special touch of making you feel like you are her only client, while you know she is busy with so many others as well. Completely responsive to every text and call, she culminated the process with competitive multiple offers, and a seamless and timely closing. -- Thank you, Debbie. I could not have asked for a better experience!
