Fun Things To Do

" Absolutely loved working with Dyanna, she was super helpful during our home searching process. Constantly sending us new listings when they came on the market and advised us when we were confused about certain things. We were first time home buyers so we were a bit all over the place when it came to locations, she was super patient with us during the entire process. I would definitely recommend using her during your home buying experience. "

- Arlyn Felix-Jose

" Dyanna has helped me and my family members look for homes for quite some time now and every time she brings 1000% to the table. Looking for a house can be extremely tiring, especially if you don't know what is good and bad. Dyanna made this easy for us; she made sure to let us know the pros and cons about every home. She was clear and honest and supported us throughout the entire process. She helped us find exactly what we wanted in a home and even after closing she continues to help us. Thank you so much, Dyanna! "

- Abid Talukdar

" "We loved working with Dyanna! As first time homebuyers, my husband and I had a lot of questions and Dyanna expertly guided us through the process. We couldn't be happier with the home she found for us. Dyanna is quick to respond to every text, phone call or email with a thorough response. She knows the area and market extremely well and shared many tips with us. We highly recommend her services. "

- Lindsey Dinsmore

" Cannot recommend Dyanna more highly. We went in with absolutely zero experience in home-buying, and she explained all the basics extremely thoroughly, and had really in-depth, personal knowledge of the whole Essex County area and the market. She was super easy to work with, extremely responsive, very up-front and honest about the intricacies of this ridiculous market, and ultimately, guided us through a home-buying process that was relatively painless. We couldn't be happier with the result. "

- Dan Hopper

" As first time home buyers, and buying in NJ while we lived all our lives in NY, my wife and I were filled with anxiety, uncertainty, and fear, while also being excited about starting this phase of our lives. Dyanna was the perfect match for us. She was very knowledgeable about real state in her service area, about the process pre/during/post placing an offer in the property we ended up buying, and was always available when we had any questions. We felt that she was always honest and had our best interest in mind when giving us any advise, and all of these qualities made our first buying experience a success. Even after purchasing our home she has continued to be a resource whenever we've needed her. I would recommend her to anyone who wants a knowledgeable, honest, resourceful realtor. "

- Jairo Abreu

" Dyanna is an all-round delight, and *extremely* good at her job. She was instrumental in helping us secure the first home we bid on in this absolutely crazy market. She is a pleasure to work with, extremely chill, totally no-nonsense and completely on-it. Highly highly recommend! Thanks Dyanna! "

- Georgia W. R.

" D as I call her is the BEST! She is on top of things. The best thing about her is her personality I feel like I can tell her anything and she just make you comfortable and at ease. She is very professional and she knows her thing. She definitely delivers. Thanks, D. I truly appreciate your help. "

- Elsie Ahrens

" Couldn't have asked for more from Dyanna. We had a pretty complicated process to get through with our closing and she was there for us every step of the way. As first-time home-buyers, we really needed someone that could shepherd us through the process without leaving us feeling pressured or confused. That was Dyanna through and through. If we ever sell our home, Dyanna will be our first call. "

- James Young

" Dyanna was an extraordinary listing agent for my grandfather's house in Maplewood -- which was a challenging and complicated sale that required a lot of dedication and focus. She has expert knowledge of the whole selling process and was always available to answer any questions. Dyanna went above and beyond -- helping us find an attorney and always meeting with us in person to talk through the many details and situations that came up. We always appreciated her kindness and compassion, as well as her professionalism and the fact that she never lost sight of the goal -- which was a quick and successful sale. We sold in less than a week. She was really great to work with and I absolutely recommend her. "

- Paul Ciambruschini

" Dyanna is the best! She was so attentive, responsive and helpful with absolutely everything to do with purchasing our new home in SOMA. Highly recommend!! "

- Eric Herman

" Dyanna is a good friend, so it was an honor to have her help us in the purchase of our first home. Everything went so smoothly! Dyanna connected us with all of the people we’d need throughout the process – our inspector, attorney, loan officer, etc. – all of whom were communicative and made us feel taken care of. Dyanna is super-familiar with the area and really sold us on Maplewood. We will continue to recommend her to everyone, and will definitely use her in future moves. Couldn’t recommend her more! "

- Kim Kavern

" You won’t find a better realtor than Dyanna. She’s knowledgeable but also warm and caring! Buying a house can be an emotional and draining experience, and she’s aware of that. She guides you through each step of the way and always has your best interest at heart. We were very lucky to have found her! "

- Olivia Mesquita

" Dyanna was a godsend. We were first time buyers and new to the area and she made everything seem easy and stress free. Her knowledge of the area and tips made us feel extremely comfortable with this life-changing decision. We were also in a time constraint, only available to see properties over the weekend, and she was able to arrange everything for us. There was one day in which we saw over 10 properties! She would also suggest places she thought we'd like. During negotiations, she was extremely helpful, providing all the information we needed to succeed in getting our house. After the offer was accepted she continued to advocate for us, helping hold all parties accountable to the commitment dates, doing so much work behind the scenes and getting us the best team possible. Now we are all moved in and happy to be neighbors with this amazing person and extraordinary agent. We could not recommend her more!! Thank you, Dyanna. "

- Vanessa Sant'anna

" Working with Dyanna to find a home was easy and fun. I looked for more than a year to buy a home in Maplewood and she was patient, so knowledgeable and a real pleasure to work with. You hear about pushy brokers? This is NOT Dyanna. She really cared about finding the right home for me and my boys and never gave up. If you need a broker look no further - you must work with Dyanna Moon! "

- Nancy Caravetta

" If I could give Dyanna a million stars, I would. We literally could not have done this without her. Dy's deep knowledge of the market and understanding of the legal process made everything go so much more smoothly. Our experience can be summed up thusly: we saw some great houses, found our dream home, purchased it at a fair price, and had almost no hiccups along the way. I give all of the credit for this to Dyanna. "

- Craig Caniglia

" Dyanna was amazing! First, we got six figures over asking! Dyanna managed the process and gave us great advice to maximize the value of our home. But to me the greatest testament of her was how she took care of us. A friend who was a realtor in our area but who retired to another state followed our real estate deal both our sale and our purchase of another home- both managed by Dyanna. Her assessment of Dyanna, whom she never met, was "Your realtor truly cares about you. She is that rare breed of a realtor who puts her clients interests first." That is who Dyanna is! She ALWAYS put our interests first. I wholeheartedly, and 100% recommend her without reservations. I will use her again without question should we need real estate guidance. Thank you Dyanna! You are awesome! "

- Karen DiScala

" We got recommended to Dyanna by our broker in Brooklyn as we were planning to move out of the City. Given that we were not local and were not familiar with the neighborhoods, it was very helpful to have an ex-Brooklynite who moved to the area and was local. The process of finding the right place was not the time-consuming part (we saw 6 houses and decided to put in an offer the first weekend we were out, and our offer was accepted). However, the entire sale negotiation from home inspection items (so many drama and estimates needed!) to the last-minute walk-through checklist items that almost derailed closing were tricky to manage without Dyanna's experience and on-the-ground contacts and availability. Very happy with our experience and would highly recommend working with Dyanna! "

- Melody Koh

" Dyanna was wonderful to work with -- she was incredibly helpful to us as we purchased our first home and totally walked us through every step of the process. She was generous with information and recommendations, and made sure to use our time wisely. She also was so knowledgeable on the area (Maplewood / South Orange), and she provided helpful historical and future perspective that made our purchase more informed and data-driven. "

- Janna Oberdorf

" Dyanna was wonderful to work with, very glad we found her. She was always on hand to answer questions, listen to concerns, provide her honest opinion and offer great advice. She kept everything on track, aided with each step. Dyanna went above and beyond the expectations we had of an agent. It definitely made us feel less stressed and more confident, having her as our guide. "

- Maritt Meadors

" A stellar agent and a stellar individual! Knowledgeable and personable authentically interested in helping clients from every background and social status! A realtor you can bank on to be honest and fight for you! #DyannaMoon "

- Isha Isra

" We loved having Dyanna as our realtor. We had to move from Utah in the middle of the pandemic and she was very, very helpful. As we did everything virtually, she was the one walking by the street to show us the areas, doing detailed virtual tours and innumerous phone calls and emails with questions we had. Dyanna had many local contacts to assist us, like attorneys, inspectors, etc. We definitely recommend her to anyone! "

- Fernanda Gonzales

" Dyanna was absolutely delightful to work with! From the beginning, Dyanna has been extremely responsive and helpful. She was thorough in explaining the process to us. During the house showings, it was very clear that she is an expert in her field. She was honest about her opinions on houses we've seen, and guided us towards houses that would fit our needs/wants. Anytime there was an issue, Dyanna was there to help us resolve it, and keep us calm. I highly recommend her!!!! "

- Nazifa Islam

" Dyanna helped me sell my house of 25 years. She worked tirelessly to show the house and was highly attentive and responsive to my needs. She's an experienced and ethical professional. I can never thank her enough for the service she provided. "

- Martine Von Milders

" Dyanna made our house hunting easy and enjoyable, a process that can inherently be emotional and confusing. She was always very kind, patient, on time, prepared, efficient and most importantly listening to all of our needs, answering all our questions with superb market knowledge and of course patiently observing our reactions. She never pushed us one way or the other. With her help we found our dream home for our growing family. We are very grateful for her help throughout the entire process. We highly recommend her without any reservations, she is an absolute pleasure to work with!! "

- Mariann Micsinai Balan

" Dyanna truly transformed my idea of what a realtor is and how the home-buying experience could be! I went into the process very concerned about how stressful everything would be, but working with Dyanna immediately reduced that stress and made the process enjoyable and rewarding. Her knowledge of the market was essential, and her instincts about what would work for me and my family were wonderful. One of Dyanna's best traits is her ability to listen, and then translate what I told her into appropriate options to consider. She helped every step of the way -- from finding the perfect home, to negotiating an excellent price, to advocating for me during the inspection and attorney review. I truly believe it is because she was my realtor and representative that the process was never as difficult or overwhelming as I feared.A true measure of our relationship is that I now count Dyanna as a friend. And thanks to her, my family and I are home!! I highly recommend Dyanna as a realtor -- you won't do better. "

- Jane Fitzgerald

" While I rarely if ever write a review on services that I pay for, I feel compelled to acknowledge my delight in having chosen Dyanna Moon over other realtors in the area. Dyanna was kind, flawless in her business ethics, extremely knowledgeable in the area I was selling my home, directly answered my questions without going around in circles. Never tried to make herself out to be anything other than who she is and how she operates. I like the direct, yet personable responses to my equities during the sale of the property. I am a great believer in starting with 100% trust and see if it stays that way or goes down. With Dyanna, it stayed that way throughout the sales process and closing. Dealing with attorneys and buyers can be stressful to say the very least. I'm happy to report that Dyanna, with her calm and warming demeanor stood out to help solve issues I just did not want to address. Without question, I Will recommend Dyanna Moon to anyone that crosses my path for all their real estate needs. I will only make one phone call in the future should I need real estate services. "

- Patrick K. Murray

" Dyanna was far and away the best realtor I've ever worked with. She was thoughtful, extremely knowledgeable about both individual properties and the broader market, responsive, thorough and a joy to be around. She made a daunting, time-crunched buying process in a terrible buyers market genuinely fun and we are thrilled with the end result. "

- Devon Pendleton

" There are not enough words to describe how great our experience with Dyanna has been. We met two years ago after moving to the area and she followed up diligently without pressure until the time was right for us to buy. We wanted to move quickly and had very specific needs that she was able to adapt to and produce excellent opportunities for us. In the COVID bid market we are in, she was consistent in her approach of bidding with purpose and not exposing her clients to any risk. She assesses the market and properties accurately and provides great insight into the areas she knows well. We felt so confident and comfortable with her skill sets that we also decided to work with many other members of her team or her inner circle of trusted advisors and contractors in the area and each were some of the best references we’ve received. We are delighted with our new home in Maplewood and it is a great place for our children to begin to flourish. One day when we’ve outgrown our space or in need of a change we will certainly be relying on Dyanna again. "

- Tim Isaacs

" Dyanna was wonderful to work with -- always responsive and pro-active. She provided terrific guidance about my recent purchase and went way beyond what one normally expects from an agent. She is a thoughtful, caring and very competent person and I would enthusiastically recommend her to anyone looking for real estate help in the areas she covers. "

- Olivia Adler

" There aren’t enough STARS to rate Dyanna. Being a first-time home buyer, my lack of knowledge only intensified my nerves, but Dyanna walked us through the process smoothly. Answering all questions, never losing patience, even adding her own concerns. It’s just so many things that come with purchasing a home that her reach (i.e. inspectors, tank sweep etc.) made it that much easier. There is no doubt I will be recommending Dyanna’s services. Your real estate angel has arrived. "

- Sam Jones and Tameka Simms

" Dyanna was wonderful. We were relocating and only had a few days to look at houses, and she quickly gained a sense of our style and showed us some wonderful homes. She knows the area so well and helped us find the right house in the perfect neighborhood! "

- Patrick Mattern

" Dyanna is a fantastic listing agent! She is the full package -- offering pointed marketing and research, contractor and legal referrals, creative and effective staging, firm negotiations and exceptional follow through. She is savvy, kind, patient and was there for me at each step in the process, always prepared for the next step and knowledgeable about the details. Dyanna conducted a hugely successful open house and got my house sold at a price I am thrilled with in a fraction of the time it took the seller before me to sell it. You'll be lucky and thrilled to have Dyanna list your home! "

- Joan English

" Dyanna was the perfect agent to sell our home. She was exactly what we were looking for in an agent - knowledgeable, responsive, accessible and thorough. She was all that and an absolute pleasure to work with due to her thoughtfulness and open and friendly nature. She helped us sell our home quickly by offering guidance and recommendations regarding contractors, home stager, attorney, etc. to get it ready for sale, as well as helped facilitate a smooth negotiation/sale process due to her excellent market knowledge and attention to detail. You will be happy to work with her guaranteed!. We highly recommend her! "

- Miriam Norman

" Dyanna was great throughout our entire home buying process. It was our first time going through this process and she took us through everything step by step to ensure we were aligned. She also has a fantastic network that we relied on heavily as we finalized our home purchase. Highly recommend to anyone looking to buy or sell. "

- Muhammad Arif

" With a pandemic underway and a baby on the way, my wife and I decided it was time to decamp from Brooklyn, but we were anxious about life in the suburbs. We could not have been more fortunate that our Brooklyn realtor referred us to Dyanna Moon. As a former Brooklynite turned Essex county maven, Dyanna was the perfect guide. Navigating the market was not easy, but Dyanna's warm and friendly style made the whole process enjoyable. Now, we're settling in to a comfortable home in a community we're fast growing to love. I could not recommend her more highly. "

- Stuart E. Kennedy

" Dyanna was amazing to work with! She was very patient with us as we were not in a huge rush to buy. She helped us with every step and also helped moved things along at the height of COVD-19 when offices started to have limited staffing! Dyanna was kind, knowledgeable, organized, and fun to work with! "

- Clarissa Sipos

" Dyanna is a true professional. I do highly recommend her. She set out a time table to sell my house, and everything went as scheduled. She also helped me communicate about an out of state property with my realtor there - which she didn't have to do! My family thanks her for everything she did. "

- David Gee

" She's absolutely stellar. Patient, hardworking and knowledgeable, she made our house hunting very easy. My wife and I highly recommend her as a great realtor and a wonderful human being. "

- Stefan Balan

" As first time home buyers, we were new to every aspect of the purchasing process. From the moment we reached out to Dyanna, to our closing date and beyond, Dyanna has been incredible. From making sure we were thinking of every potential risk (e.g., roof quality, sewer line, utilities, oil containers in the backyard, etc.), to excellent attorney/lender/inspector/contractor recommendations, to corresponding with the Seller’s representatives, Dyanna made this process SO much easier! We truly don’t know where we’d be without her. When we couldn’t make it to two of our inspections, Dyanna even went in our place and FaceTimed us to ensure we could participate. After being in our new home for a little over a month we couldn’t be happier. Thank you, Dyanna! "

- Sam Detrick

" Being a first-time home buyer with absolutely no knowledge about home buying, we were skeptical about choosing our Real Estate agent. Dyanna is godsend for us and we couldn't have been happier with our choice. The moment we met her, we knew she was the one who can help get our dream house. At every step in the entire process, right from searching for a home to negotiation until closing, she was there for us a guide/mentor helping us. In fact, even after moving to our new home she was just a phone call away answering every silly question with patience. She is proactive, an excellent negotiator, a thorough professional and highly trustworthy agent, we just couldn't have asked for more. It’s our privilege to work with Dyanna and would strongly recommend to my friends and family. "

- Sainath Tadikonda

" We decided to move out of Hoboken and to the Maplewood/South Orange area in late 2017. A realtor friend of ours recommended Dyanna to us and we started working with her toward the end of the year. It was a great experience. Dyanna is incredibly patient (we're first time buyers, so our questions and our anxiety about the process were pretty much endless), knowledgeable and encouraging. We never felt pressured to buy any home that we weren't in love with and Dyanna was really proactive about telling us the pros and cons of each house. And even when we ended up losing a house at the last minute, after months of negotiations and inspections, she stuck with us and helped us fine "the one." We can't recommend Dyanna highly enough. "

- Phil Sexton

" Dyanna is phenomenal. If you are lucky enough to have her as an agent, look forward to a highly enjoyable, accommodating process without the stress of finding a new place. I was recently looking for my second apartment. We were on a very short time frame and came to the table with a list of needs. At the beginning of the journey, we were very nervous about the likelihood of meeting our deadline as well as the biggest needs on our list. We should never have worried! Dyanna was highly responsive, very intuitive, honest, and positive. I can't sing her praises enough. I've been in my new place for about a month now and I absolutely adore it. Thanks, Dyanna! "

- Caroline Stickland

" When it came time to sell my house, together with my family we interviewed several local real estate agents; Dyanna was by far our choice! She was prompt and very patient in answering all of our questions and concerns. Dyanna offered great support and my house sold quickly. So when the time came for me to buy a new home, I had no reservations in relying on her again. I recommend her without hesitation. She will understand what you’re looking for, and will patiently guide you to find your dream home! "

- Giuliana Tarquinio

" Dyanna is one of a kind! We feel so lucky to have found her. She made buying our first home seem so effortless with her responsiveness, communication, kindness and intelligence, all while making us laugh along the way. We saw over 50 houses with Dyanna before finding our dream home and she was incredibly patient and positive the entire time. I highly recommend her to EVERYONE! "
