October 8, 2014 THE VILLADOM TIMES I • Page 19 ����� in business Rosemary Robin returns to McBride Agency Eileen Phillips’ reputation precedes her A hat’s old is what’s new for Rosemary Robin of McBride Agency. Rosemary began her career in real estate at McBride in the 1990s, and returned to this small local business in May of 2014 after owning her own real estate agency for a decade and working for a large local real estate corporation for several years. “It was great to go back to McBride; I felt like I was going back home! For me, small is definitely better when it comes to Real Estate,” Rosemary asserts. “I am able to service my customers and clients better, giving more personal attention rather than dealing with the bureaucracy of a large corporation.” She also knows firsthand, how difficult, both physically Rosemary Robin and emotionally, it is to move out of a home and wants to make her sellers’ experience as easy as possible without sacrificing price. Rosemary had previously taken on the academic world, first earning her master’s at Columbia University, and later working there. Now, she prefers working as a sellers’ agent. She explains that she enjoys problem-solving as she pinpoints the potential obstacles to a sale – and overcomes them. She emphasizes the importance of identifying any potential issues with a property quickly, so the home will not sit needlessly on the market. Rosemary recently moved from Franklin Lakes to Hudson County, and envisions herself getting involved in helping people from Bergen County to find the right properties in her new hometown. McBride Agency is located 834 Franklin Lake Road in Franklin Lakes. Call (201) 891-8900 or (201) 819-1863 (Rosemary’s cell) for more information. Rosemary may also be contacted at Rrobin@mcbrideagency.com long-time McBride Agency Realtor, Eileen Phillips believes her reputation precedes her. With over 25 years in the business, and close to 20 of those with McBride, Eileen’s clients are mostly refer- rals from former clients, their families and friends. While she describes McBride as a boutique agency, she’s quick to point out that the agency serves clients in many towns, not just Franklin Lakes. And Eileen, a Bergen County native, knows the area – and much of Passaic County – like the back of her hand. Over the years, Eileen has watched the industry evolve. She points out that the Internet is now being used extensively by home buyers, sellers, and Realtors. A top performer at the Eileen Phillips agency, Eileen says, “McBride has always been a very good fit for me.” She notes that she enjoys working with the McBride family and her col- leagues. “The agency is family-friendly. I was able to have a career with McBride while raising my five children in Wyckoff.” The youngest of those children, she adds, is a U.S. Army veteran who recently returned from a year of service in Iraq. “I am most grateful!” she says. Eileen is dedicated to her work and meeting the needs of her clients. She is available seven days a week and makes a point of returning all calls, each day.
