About Us
The Vanessa Pollock Team believes that a home is much more than its inherent architecture. As we see it, a home is a sanctuary – a welcoming, special place where you can unwind, feel calm and connected. This site is where you can research what makes our area so special and how Vanessa Pollock and the team can help you make your sanctuary in NJ a reality:
- We believe that all real estate transactions should be a positive experience.
- We believe a home is much more than bricks and mortar.
- We believe that a REALTOR® is worth more than just their next sale.
- We believe in bettering our communities through community outreach.
- We believe in forming long & lasting relationships with our clients.
- We believe that the most client-friendly real estate services can also be environmentally friendly.
VANESSA POLLOCK, REALTOR® & Lead Sales Associate The last eight years have brought success to both Vanessa and her clients, as she has negotiated and closed new housing for dozens of families, amounting to over $60,000,000 in sales. Currently, the Leader of the #1 Team at Keller Williams Midtown Direct Realty, she was previously the #1 Agent for all 3 offices at her former franchise. Vanessa is a full-time agent for northern NJ and appeared in two seasons of the real estate show “Bought & Sold” on HGTV. Vanessa, her husband and their 3 children reside in Maplewood, NJ, after having lived in both NYC’s East Village, Downtown Jersey City and lovely South Orange. Vanessa is a proud Seth Boyden Elementary School parent, who is active at church and in the community.
For the first time in my life, I understand how important a good real estate agent is, and Vanessa Pollock does it ALL! She’s the real deal, folks: smart, super-organized, compassionate and always available. She’s like a rock star in the real estate world. Like Madonna, but taller. And with darker hair. And less Kabbalah.” – Norbert Leo Butz, Maplewood
SHERI GREENMAN, REALTOR®/Sales Associate Sheri is an Accredited Buyer’s Representative (ABR) extraordinairre, as well as listing agent. Sheri brought 10 years of local real estate experience to the table, when joining the Vanessa Pollock team in 2010. In addition to her ABR designation, she also holds the National Associate of REALTOR’s GREEN designation, as well as being an e-PRO. Sheri loves her clients–and they love her back! Sheri and her husband have been long-time residents of South Orange, where they raised their three children. All of them went through the S.Orange/Maplewood school system. Her husband was born and raised in South Orange, and both Sheri and her husband spent many years active in the community. As empty-nesters, they now reside in West Orange.
Sheri Greenman was a consumate professional in every stage of the process! Her follow up was appropriate but not pushy, she understood our preferences and needs (at times better than we did ourselves). She showed us a variety (which we wanted to see) but also kept us focused. We would unequivocally recommend her and use her again! – West Orange Homeowner
Linda Brady, REALTOR®/Sales Associate is a recently transplanted, die hard New Yorker and is proud to now be a Jersey Girl AND thrilled to call Maplewood her hometown. After working in corporate advertising for 16 years, Linda is parlaying her extensive marketing and professional experience to her new career. After years on the Upper East Side it was time to see if there was life outside the city. Linda and her husband ventured to New Jersey with their growing family and bought a condo in Maplewood that is in walking distance to both the Maplewood and South Orange trains and town center.
Linda Brady was fabulous to work with. She was very knowledgeable about the housing market in the Maplewood/South Orange area. Her help and kindness was greatly appreciated. I would recommend Linda without hesitation.

“Vanessa Rocks! She was so wonderful, both on the buying and selling end. She’s very professional, funny, compassionate and smart. She helped us navigate a difficult purchase with ‘for sale by owners’ and she sold our house in a week! Can’t recommend her highly enough!” Catrina Elia, MAPLEWOOD
“I wholeheartedly recommend Vanessa Pollock from REMAX. She got us our asking price in 5 days. She is very smart and lovely and a pleasure to deal with. She knows how to stage a home and will bring in pieces from her personal inventory to get your house perfect. Her photographer is awesome and the brochure that she produces for each house is glossy and gorgeous. She knows her business.” Nadine Kerstan, SOUTH ORANGE
“My wife and I enthusiastically refer everyone we know to Vanessa. On our transaction, she was incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and always professional. If we ever move again, Vanessa will be our first call!” - Andy Thompson, SHORT HILLS
“As naive and nervous first-time home-buyers, we were delighted when Vanessa immediately pursued getting to know us and uncovering our conception of “home.” We felt like we had a devoted friend who wanted to guide us to the right home for us. Vanessa showed us house after house, waiting patiently until we found the one where we knew we belonged. She even took the time to help us imagine how we could furnish and decorate our new home. Vanessa is the consummate professional: well-organized, highly-knowledgeable, warm, friendly, dedicated, and incredibly hard-working. We feel privileged to have had her help us find our first home.” – Anne and Clay Porr, SUMMIT
