🚨🚨🚨 Hey y’all!! We have finally given ourselves a mini (stay)cation this long weekend, so we will be offline from starting tonight (Thursday) and we’ll be back at it Tuesday morning. We’re locking up our phones and spending some much needed family time enjoying where we live by actually going to the beach, playing mini golf, and even have a tubing trip booked! If anyone needs us, we’ll get back to you first thing Tuesday morning. We love you guys so much for keeping us so busy and can’t wait to seal more deals after this quick refresh! 💙💙 #staycation #unplug #jerseyshore #njrealtor #realtorlife #selfcare #selflove #qualitytime #family #recharge #refresh (at Manasquan, New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEZqj8cA_q4/?igshid=xyuqowm8914l

💫💫💫 A friendly reminder from our lovely, crafting neighbor. 🙏 It seems these days there is a great divide. Two sides opposing to everything. I think it’s pretty easy to have a heavy heart and mixed with fear of uncertainty, anxieties are high all around. What it boils down to is this: Just. Be. Kind. The Golden Rule. Do unto others as you’d have done to you. That is our reason for rehabbing wildlife. Why we choose to be vegan. Why our home is a safe haven for all. Why we’ll always stand up for whoever needs us to stand up for them. Empathy is so important and if more people could just pause and put themselves in someone else’s shoes, there’d be a lot less hate out there. A lot less anger. Less friction. So before you clap back, strap on your keyboard warrior helmet, make that nasty comment, just pause. Take a breath. Embrace empathy. And FFS, just be kind. #kindness #justbekind #empathy #vegan #compassion #blacklivesmatter #loveislove🌈 #humanrights #motherearth #goldenrule #dountoothers #animalrights #activism (at Alternative Plate) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEWyhwvgoe6/?igshid=1kfwbt0i7jug2

✨✨✨ We met the coolest ex-realtor last night while picking up a piece of furniture from her off of Facebook marketplace. We got to talking (admittedly for a lot longer than we planned 😆) and she was telling us all the parts she hated about being an agent. She said it made her want to smash her phone every time it dinged and she thought she may end up incarcerated if she didn’t make a big life change. 😂🔑 It made us both appreciate each other that much more. He’s not only good at, but ENJOYS, the parts that aren’t my favorite and vice versa. The parts that make me feel like a newb, frustrate me to no end, and stress me out are the parts he gets excited over. The parts he feels clueless about are the parts that come to me naturally and I could handle in my sleep. 🛏 We make a heck of a team, y’all. So lucky to have each other at work and at home. Thanks, OKcupid! 💘 On a side note, our new friend introduced us to her adorable sea glass jewelry business. Check her and her partner out! @selltheshorellc #okcupid #okcupidsuccess #onlinedating #onlinedatingsuccess #coupleswhoworktogether #realtorlife #njrealtor #jerseyshore #downtheshore #njrealestate #pointpleasantnj #seaglassjewelry (at Point Pleasant Boardwalk - Jersey Shore) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEUNYHQg-i5/?igshid=6as0c2oeuduz

😲 Shh...we're going to let you in on a secret. 📲 The big box real estate websites make their money selling ads, not info. 😬 So why would you trust them to price your house? 🐿 That's nuts. 🐿 ✅ Local ✅ Trusted ✅ Won't sell your info. 🔥🔥🔥LINK IN BIO🔥🔥🔥 #zillow #zestimate #homevalue #njrealtor #veganrealtor #notyouraveragerealtor #sell #njrealestate #jerseyshore #jerseyshorerealestate #downtheshore #lovewhereyoulive (at Asbury Park Boardwalk) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEHYY9mg423/?igshid=6iofevwml44q

🌅🌅🌅 Love where you live. We do. 🙏 My nieces came to spend a few days with us and we hit up the beach at least once a day, even if it was already getting dark or we got rained out. We often talk about how cool and blessed we are to provide a mini vaca for them. Moving to the beach was the best decision we’ve made in a long time. Two years later and still no regrets! 😉 If you aren’t loving where you live and need a little guidance making your next love, we’ve got your back! 🥰🏖 #njshore #jerseyshore #belmar #belmarbeach #sunset #sandytoes #realtorlife #auntlife #nieces #beach #notyouraveragerealtors #buy #sell #cottoncandysky #njrealtor #realestate #downtheshore (at Belmar Beach) https://www.instagram.com/p/CD1HWMKAtLk/?igshid=3723opwonlfz

🗣🗣🗣 Couples who protest together stay together. ✅ A fun story: The first day we met in person was at our last house in Howell. We had FaceTimed for 3 hours every night for a week before we actually met IRL. I already knew he was my person, but when I walked into the house and immediately saw the same exact vegan creamer I used sitting on the kitchen island, I took it as a sign and my feelings were solidified. ☕️ Fast forward 4 years, and our passion for justice has only been amplified. We discovered our voices in the animal activism community and from there began participating in social justice demos. We feel we’ve found our true calling standing up and speaking out for all of those who need us. We absolutely LOVE our jobs, matchmaking, clients, and running our own business, but selling houses is what affords is to do our most meaningful work. We will always speak up for the voiceless. We will always protect those who need our protection. We will always do our best to create awareness and bring justice to those who are oppressed. And this is the true calling in our lives. ✊ Photo throwback from our first animal rights march in NYC, a magically energetic experience. ✨⚡️💫 #ethical #letsgetethical #vegan #equality #justice #protest #notyouraveragerealtors #upgradeyourshell #speakup #blm #veganrealtor #njrealtor (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDuIB6JAAM7/?igshid=ygciotwpbg90

🏖☀️ She needs a bath, but she sure is pretty!😍 FUN FACT: Back when we (Chris) were putting the truck together, we (Chris) almost went with white paint/turquoise lettering. I felt in my gut how wrong it would have been and pushed for the turquoise body...and we’re both so glad that I did. We 💙💚 our #beachtruck and she’s become such a big part of who we are. Happy Wednesday, y’all! Make it a great one. And in case you needed a reminder, black lives still matter. ✊🏼✊🏾✊🏿 #jerseyshore #shelly #turquoise #chevy #chevyc10 #c10 #1970 #hotrods #asburypark #asburyparknj #njrealtor #realtorlife #notyouraveragerealtors #upgradeyourshell #njrealestate #tillie #cookmanave #vegan #veganrealtor #vegancouple (at Crust & Crumble Pizzeria & Bakery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDgoyfJgCJR/?igshid=d4y95pq26h3i

🤗🤗🤗 The faces you make when your kitchen renovation is mostly done and you’re exhausted but excited to get back to selling and buying houses. 💘 There’s no such thing as a finish line for us. Once we reach a big goal we never thought was possible, we have even bigger dreams lined up to achieve. One of our long term goals was to start flipping our own houses and it’s looking Iike an opportunity to do so could happen a lot sooner than we expected. 🤯 Our business model is constantly evolving. Constantly evaluating. Delegating tasks to who is naturally good at them. And so this new opportunity doesn’t scare us much, but excites us more than anything. He’s good at the paperwork and financing stuff while I do better in a creative setting, like match-making homes or picking out tile. Our teamwork had grown so much in the past 6 months and we’re so stoked to see what else we can pull off! ✅ #coupleswhoworktogether #vegancouple #njrealtor #realtorlife #upgradeyourshell #buyer #seller #realestate #jerseyshore #jerseyshorerealestate #jerseyshorerealtor (at Asbury Park, New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDeYxewgWoG/?igshid=141cgm2vmih1r

🥳🎂9️⃣⁉️ I’m really not sure where the time went. You’ve been a shining light since we first met 9 years ago. Since then, you’ve been brightening the lives of every person you come in contact with. You were just born this way; an old soul with such a magnetic personality that captures the hearts of everyone you meet. To say that I’m proud doesn’t even begin to put a dent in the way I really feel. Being your mom has easily been my biggest and best accomplishment. Thank you for being my favorite shopping buddy, official taste tester, acting really freaking weird with me, and dancing in the aisles at Target like it’s what we were born to do. I love you with my whole heart forever and ever. 💙💙💙💙💙💙 HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEET BOY!!! 🤩 #happybirthday #leo #august2 #mamasboy #son #springlake #sunrise #jerseyshore #beachkids #vegankidsofig #vegankids #proud (at Spring Lake Beach) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDY3iXigvTm/?igshid=7shkdp4slx3p

🔨🔨🔨 As you all know by now, we’ve been renovating our kitchen . The big stuff (floor, backsplash, shelving, appliances, etc) is all done, and now is time for the finishing touches! (it’s all about the detail, amirite?!) . . Here is a sneak peek of an almost finished product. Once it’s completely finished, I’ll post before and after photos so you can really appreciate the full transformation. (It used to be hideous in here, seriously! 🤢) . . What do y’all think so far?! Love it? Hate it? For us, we couldn’t be any happier with how it’s turning out. It’s a small kitchen, so we really aimed to open it up as much as possible. . . Have you renovated your kitchen? How did it go? Do you love the finished product? What questions do you have about ours?! Drop ‘em here! ⬇️⬇️⬇️ . . #kitchen #kitchenrenovation #kitchenmakeover #openshelving #coffee #coffeebar #retro #njrealtor #notyouraveragerealtors #upgradeyourshell #jerseyshore #belmar #westbelmar #beachhouse #local (at West Belmar) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDRM-SjAWzg/?igshid=rzsfzydwzr3w
