A seamless and absolute amazing experience I had with Rick Kolek, as my realtor in the Essex/Passaic county area. I recently sold my home and could not have been more happier with the hard work and dedication that he put in to making it happen in a timely manner. Rick’s knowledge of the area was invaluable and he really helped me navigate through the stress of selling and moving. He always made me feel like his #1 priority. I am confident in saying that if you are looking for a realtor in the Essex/Passaic county area to either buy, sell, short sale, rent, or even just to ask a question about the housing in the area… and you want a realtor that isn’t just about making a sale, but someone who is kind, trustworthy, the nicest guy you’ll ever meet and dedicated to you as a client. Do not look any further!! Rick Kolek is your agent !

I recently purchased a house with Rick’s help. We are in an extremely competitive market. Rick was proactive when I put in an offer that was finally accepted. Without his help, I believe I would still be looking at houses. While the house was under contract Rick was responsive and easy to get a hold of throughout the whole process. As a first-time home buyer, I had a lot of questions and Rick helped guide me through them. I highly recommend Rick and am thankful for his help in finding my new home.
