More about Yvette Thornton

Business Philosophy

I've been working as a full time Real Estate Salesperson and always strive to do my best; guiding, advising and educating my clients so they can make good decisions to achieve their goals. Big or small tasks deserve equal enthusiasm and effort and I provide my clients top notch service, a positive and success driven attitude and the assurance that they can count on me on every level of the transaction from start to finish.

I approach my profession with the highest degree of professionalism offering the best service possible to my clients. I proudly adhere to the Realtor Code of Ethics and work with integrity, honesty and professionalism to exceed my clients expectations.

Communication and quality service are the keys to all successful business transactions. Through years of experience I have developed an appreciation for the importance of listening to and understanding the needs of buyers and sellers, the ability and willingness to communicate clearly, frequently and in a timely fashion, and a commitment to collaborative efforts in developing problem solving strategies that leave all parties feeling like winners. Achieving NJ Association of Realtors and Company awards in both sales and listings indicates that I possess the work ethic, skills and expertise to effectively manage and close transactions with speed and diligence, bringing value to both buyers and sellers. A deep-bench network of professional support staff and experienced vendors enables me to respond to new challenges quickly and meet aggressive deadlines. My goal is helping you to achieve yours!

Personal Background

I'm a lifelong NJ resident, residing in East Brunswick. I've been married to my South African sweetheart for 33 years and we have two great kids. We are a RUTGERS family starting with Grandma :) We all went to Rutgers and believe in keeping it local. I enjoy traveling all over the world, good wine-tasting, excellent food, gardening, Akita Dog Rescue, Karma Cat Rescue, Therapy animals, photography and developing my professional career. Traveling to exotic places like South Africa and Israel has exposed me to a cultural education unlike any text book in school. My numerous visits abroad have gifted me with an international understanding of our vast cultural diversity at home and the deep rooted dreams of home ownership driving the current NJ Real Estate market.

Communities I Serve

I primarily serve central New Jersey;Middlesex, Monmouth and Mercer Counties. As a member of 4 multiple listing systems I have a myriad of tools to effectively gauge the NJ RE market and present it to my clients and customers.
