Bought a home in 2011.Summary:
I would highly recommend Karen Bigos and Daniel Cannizzo's team at Towne Realty Groupe. We were looking for a home last summer/fall in the Millburn and Short Hills area. They were always available. Especially put them to the test when our home under contract had some problems from Hurricane Irene. While it was still a major headache, Karen worked well under pressure and was able to navigate the delicate negotiations between us and the sellers of the home. I would recommend anyone looking for a home in the Millburn/SH/Summit area to use their services.…More Less

Dear Lillian and Ed - what a pleasure it was to work with you and thank you so much for this endorsement. We had a difficult and complicated transaction together. The good news is you got a great house in a wonderful neighborhood and since I grew up on the same street, I know you will have many years of happiness in your home. It has been a pleasure getting to know you and we thank you for any future referrals. Sincerely, Karen & Daniel

Sold a home in 2011.Summary:
Karen and her staff did a great job on selling our home in Millburn less that two weeks. She handled all the details and guided us every step of the way.
She also kept us informed throughout the whole process when dealing with the buyer. Karen is a well of knowledge about Millburn and Short Hills.
I would recommend them to anyone searching for a home in our local Short Hills/Millburn market.

Dear Don, Working with your family was truly a privilege for me and Daniel. Navigating the complexities of the oil tank and working with an overseas buyer was harder than usual but you were all so cooperative, it made our job much easier. It is hard to believe that your family owned that property since the 1940's and we really enjoyed learning the history behind the house. Many thanks to you for the opportunity. Sincerely, Karen Bigos

Sold a home in 2010.Summary:
Karen Bigos and Daniel Cannizzo helped us purchase our new home this past year -- we could not have won the bidding war without them!
They have been our real estate agents since 2004. During that time, they have helped us purchase two Short Hills homes and sell one. So, we can honestly say that we have known and worked together for many years.
We are very impressed with their broad real estate network. It is solely due to their broad network that gave us competitive advantages in purchasing our two Short Hills homes – One home was a multiple bid situation and the other was an exclusive private sale. Further, it is because of their deep local market knowledge and extensive marketing effort that the house we sold went under contract in about week. Their pricing advice really paid off, as we ended up receiving multiple bids.
In each transaction, we appreciated their responsiveness. They were always accessible. Given my husband’s late work hours, we were grateful that they scheduled their time around his schedule. Even on the weekend and during the holidays, they were always available and reachable.
For us, they were not only hardworking and tenacious, but also creative and flexible. We will not forget their “roll the sleeves up” approach as evidenced by Karen removing spider webs on our front, outside bushes when she was preparing our house for listing. Further, since we were dealing with strong personalities, we appreciated their creative solutions making us feel good about completing our transaction. Since real estate is a highly people-intensive field, we were very impressed with their flexibility in masterfully handling all the different parties (e.g., buyers, sellers, agents, lawyers and inspectors) to get the transactions completed.
Most importantly, they have proven to us that they are one of the smartest and most experienced teams in real estate locally. They guided us through the complexities of each transaction while looking out for our interest. Indeed, we relied upon their expertise on several important matters and we were consistently happy with their advice and the outcome. We definitely felt confident that we had one of the smartest and most capable teams on our side.
Their are superstars in real estate! We would recommend them to anyone searching for a home in our local Short Hills/Millburn market.

About Karen Eastman Bigos, e-PRO
Add personality to your profile! Tell the community about yourself, your home, and your profession.
FEW REALTORS know Millburn/Short Hills, like Karen. As and a graduate of the top-rated Millburn School system and lifelong resident with 26 years of experience, I know this area with my eyes closed. I graduated from the University of Florida, and came right back home to selling Real Estate. My mother was a Real Estate agent since the 1960's and my father Martin Eastman, owned a men's clothing store in Downtown Millburn, so my family is steeped in the history of the community.
In 2010 my company, Towne Realty Group, was awared the Who's Who in Luxury Real Estate Award for Outstanding Social Media Savvy! With all 25 of our agents and staff on facebook, LinkedIn and/or twitter, we have thousands of friends, fans, followers and connections. Our on line marketing ROCKS with superior inbound links to our newly renovated website and SEO that continues to build.
I worked at two large real estate corporations for over 10 years each and then decided to open my own real estate boutique with my partner Daniel Cannizzo, a lifelong resident of the community and another Millburn High graduate. Together with my husband, Broker and attorney Mark Bigos, we started Towne Realty Group in 2006. Our roots to Millburn and Short Hills are deep with participation on the Board of Directors in the Millburn-Short Hills Chamber of Commerce in the 1980's, Millburn/Short Hills Historical Society, Paper Mill Playhouse, Millburn High Alumni Association and too many others to mention. WE KNOW THIS AREA BETTER THAN ANY OTHER TEAM!
Our company name is actually borrowed from a family business that Daniel's uncle owned and operated in Millburn for 40 years, called Towne Pharmacy. Our families have owned businesses in the Downtown for over 100 years and we are truly dedicated to the community. Our team of 19 full-time agents are all expericenced and do more than twice as many agents that might work part-time in a larger company. We are dedicated to total transaction service and we will take good care of you if you want to look for a home with an easy commute to Manhattan.
