More about Joanna Parker-Lentz

Jodi and Joanna have lived and worked as a real estate team in the Short Hills area for almost 20 years. Legend has it that they shared a room on the maternity floor of Mount Sainai Hospital on the upper East Side on Manhattan when their first daughters were born! After connecting at a Gymboree in their neighborhood; their chatty daughters were inseparable, as were their golfer husbands. Jodi already had one foot out of NYC as she was destined to move in 8 months to her new home in Short Hills, as her husband decided that they could get more real estate bang for the buck in NJ. He was ready for more space, BBQs in a backyard and the MidTown Direct train commute to Manhattan. Jodi was less certain about the inevitable move and her plan was to take anyone from NYC with her to the 'Burbs.

It didn't take long for her scheme to work. Jodi quickly convinced Joanna, a native New Yorker, to move to New Jersey in a sneak attack that would change their lives forever. Jodi orchestrated her first NJ real estate deal by telling Joanna to just "look" at three homes for comparison's sake before committing to a potential move to Brooklyn. Joanna accidentally bought one of those three houses that first day, after informing Jodi's real estate agent that she would absolutely not move to NJ in the foreseeable future.

Within a year of moving both of their families to Short Hills, Jodi and Joanna developed a strong interest in real estate and the idea of helping others make the move to the suburbs was certain. After all, if two reluctant New Yorkers could find happiness in their new homes, then perhaps they could help guide others to find their happy place in New Jersey.

With years of hard work, fierce honesty, passion and humor, this dynamic duo have helped many clients achieve their real estate goals and have made life-long friends. They believe that two heads and better than one and they stand by the motto that they are Realtors for life. They have become travel agents, decor consultants, a shoulder to lean on and partners in fundraising ventures with clients. Jodi and Joanna are driven by a need to make the towns they live and sell in better places. They lend their financial and hands-on support to many worthy causes and believe that giving back is the only way to pay it forward.

With very different personal and business styles, they share a strong work ethic that makes them unique and super fun to be around! They were honored to be featured in several seasons on the hit HGTV show, Bought and Sold, which showcased their real estate world on national television and provided an honest perspective on the real estate process from the start to finish.

They are ready and always excited to help their clients make the right decisions on their homes and investment properties. Let these skilled negotiators and passionate local leaders guide you in your next real estate adventure. Give them a call before you make any real estate move!!
