How We Sold a Record-Breaking Luxury Home in Ridgewood

Selling a luxury home in Ridgewood’s competitive market takes more than just listing it online — it requires strategy, precision, and local expertise. Recently, The Gill Group set a record with the highest-priced home sale on Ridgewood’s East Side. Here’s how we helped our clients achieve an incredible result.

Preparing the Home for Maximum Value

Our first step was making sure the property at 104 Brookside showed at its very best. Even a stunning luxury home benefits from final touches:

• Fresh paint and landscaping to highlight curb appeal

• A professional stager specializing in luxury homes

• Strategic furniture placement and styling to showcase water views

These enhancements ensured buyers saw the full value of the home immediately.

Professional Photography & Marketing

Luxury homes deserve more than standard photos. We partnered with a photographer who specializes in high-end properties, capturing every detail from the grand living spaces to the garden views.

Because there aren’t many $3.7M buyers in the market, our marketing strategy was carefully targeted. We focused on connecting with qualified luxury buyers across Bergen County and Northern NJ, ensuring every showing was impactful.

Exclusive Showings for Qualified Buyers

Instead of traditional open houses, we prioritized privacy and exclusivity. Each showing was reserved for fully vetted buyers with verified financials. This elevated the home’s prestige and reassured sellers that every visitor was a serious contender.

Negotiating a Record-Breaking Deal

Multiple offers came quickly — and with strong terms. Through skilled negotiation, we not only exceeded the sellers’ price expectations but also secured favorable contract terms, including a smooth inspection and appraisal process plus free use & occupancy for our clients.

That’s the power of working with a top-performing Ridgewood and Bergen County real estate team.
