Sable’s background is in the food industry, where she’s been waitressing for the past six years. Believe it or not, successful waitstaff know a thing or two about being successful in real estate. Sable has a proficiency predicated on strong interpersonal skills. Waitressing has allowed her to develop a knack for providing great customer service, the ability to communicate and negotiate well, not to mention an aptitude for problem solving. Both in the food industry as well as real estate, reading customers is something she takes great pride in. She makes people feel welcome. Sable has an ability to work well under pressure. She has the capacity to maintain her composure within fast-paced settings, which exist both at restaurants as well as real estate transactions. Moreover, she’s learned valuable lessons with time management, enabling her to be there for her clients when they need her most. There’s a benefit to being flexible with both selling food in addition to selling homes! Waitresses and real estate professionals often work irregular hours, especially weekends and evenings. Furthermore, Sable has experience knowing her audience, providing options that will appeal to her dining customers or in real estate, her clients who are looking for value in a particular school district or neighborhood. “Food service has taught me to be attentive, accommodating and patient, all of which are essential for real estate success,” emphasizes Ms. Stephens. “This industry calls for thinking-on-the-go and finding creative solutions, which help me navigate tough real estate deals.”

 

Sable was born and raised in Tunkhannock. She has a love for our region and enjoys sharing that with buyers and sellers as they take a step forward on their life’s journey. Over the years it was her appreciation for interior design that sparked her interest in real estate. Moreover, her and her mother’s pursuit in homeownership, gave Sable the realization that she could incorporate her passion for design with the nuances of real estate. Her new joy is now found in helping families obtain their dream home or aiding them so they could plan to sell or move on from the home where so many memories were forged.

 

Sable understands the challenges that homebuyers and sellers face in today’s market and how important it is to have an agent and a brand behind the consumer, who can provide exceptional resources, tools and guidance. “I believe Realty Network Group enhances client relationships by building trust and assisting their agents to discern the needs of each client,” explains Ms. Stephens. “I chose this company because they’re agent-focused, providing ample support and marketing for their network of associates.” She believes this firm equips their salespeople with vivid marketing, vital tech and resources, not to mention a group of persons who are all working together toward similar goals. It’s this type of network that grants agents the freedom to learn and grow, especially early in their career.

 

Sable is energized as she leans into this new phase of her development as a REALTOR®. The needs of her homebuyers and sellers are paramount and her priority in her day-to-day life in this industry. Her diverse interests, including a love for animals and attempting new things, make her one of the more interesting faces in local real estate for years to come.

Educating homebuyers and sellers is essential and shouldn’t be overlooked in today’s market. Yet, a noticeable gap has become more evident in what consumers understand about real estate and what they should know. Enter Jessica Agosto! Realty Network Group’s newest REALTOR®, Jessica, believes some consumers aren’t being educated enough about the real estate process. “There’s much to learn about our industry, myself included, but I hope to dispel some of the barriers that exist for my clients,” expresses Jessica.

Spanish-speaking and lower income families have a special place in Jessica’s heart. She wants to set them up for success whether they’re looking to buy or sell. “What they think could be unobtainable, might not be the case at all,” repeats Jessica. She naturally loves to help people. She’s worked in customer service positions for over twenty years in various capacities, such as an administrative assistant, assistant supervisor, legal secretary and a paralegal. Her skill set will furthermore aid Realty Network Group as she’s bilingual, with the ability to speak, read and write Spanish. Growing up amongst a diverse population in Brooklyn, NY, has equipped her for client-agent interactions, especially when diversity plays a role. For the past fourteen years, Jessica has resided in Scranton. She’s very familiar with the city and the Greater Scranton area.

“I chose Realty Network Group because I’ve trusted them from the start,” explains Jessica. “During the pandemic, when we purchased our first home, we relied upon a real estate agent from their company, Maria Muchal Berta. It was a wonderful experience. Why wouldn’t I join them?! I love their reputation in the area in addition to their training and support. They may be smaller in size to other competing Brokerages, but they certainly don’t lack experience!”

What other strengths does Jessica possess you might ask? She has a knack for creativity and decor, which will be an added benefit to her seller clients as she supports them in staging their homes. Growing up in New York City, she also has that ‘city girl hustle’ allowing her to get things done, quickly and efficiently. Earning everything she has and doing things out of the goodness of her heart, has made her community-focused over the years. She’s served as PTA secretary at Charles Sumner Elementary, has been involved in parish ministry through Mary Mother of God Church helping their youth group deliver meals to the homebound and homeless, and volunteers her time with her children’s sports booster clubs.

Besides spending time with her clients and those in the local community, Jessica cherishes time with her family, her husband of fifteen years, daughter and three sons. She loves to paint, travel and create new memories.

She’s a homeowner, she’s a lifelong Scranton resident and she’s Realty Network Group’s newest real estate professional, Maureen Langan. Her strong knowledge and deep experience of the area make her a compelling match for those looking to buy or sell real estate in the Greater Scranton area. “We’re thrilled to welcome Maureen to our family of REALTORS® at Realty Network Group,” professes Dianne Montana, the Managing Broker of the company. “Maureen’s a Scranton native with a deep love for the city and its surrounding communities. This will be an asset not only to her clients but also to what she brings to the table for our firm.” Furthermore, she has an intimate understanding of the city’s real estate market and its unique neighborhoods, which will continue to serve others seeking Scranton as a destination.

Maureen recently joined Realty Network Group with over two years experience in local real estate. “I have a passion for helping others,” asserts Maureen. “From start to finish, I want my clients to know I’m wholly committed to them and their needs. I’m dedicated to listening to their concerns, helping them be at ease and guiding them through either the homebuying or selling process.” Maureen’s goal is providing exceptional service to her clients. She works hard, boosting her clients’ confidence, alleviating some of the stress that often enters into the real estate transaction.

One of the biggest frustrations we hear occasionally from consumers in this industry is a lack of communication from real estate agents. Maureen believes open communication with buyers and sellers is paramount. She understands that her clients desire an agent they can count on, someone they can trust, who will be available to them in what could be one of the largest sales they’re ever involved in. Her insight into interpersonal communication, being an employee of the Scranton School District for over nineteen years, has provided her a solid foundation in being able to work well with others from various walks of life. It’s through this experience in dealing daily with co-workers, families and students where she’s exercised the virtues of patience, understanding, kindness and empathy. These are traits, which are important to consumers seeking assistance in real estate as well.

There’s a plethora of options for homebuyers or sellers to choose from in Northeastern Pennsylvania, so we asked Maureen why she chose our company? “I joined Realty Network Group for many reasons, but one stands out for me – support,” maintains Maureen. “The support they provide for their agents and clientele is unlike any available. From the very first time I walked through their door, I felt at home. I couldn’t be happier making the transition to Realty Network Group.” As a REALTOR®, she’s looking forward to spreading her wings, connecting buyers and sellers with brand.

Whether you’re looking to buy, sell, or invest in real estate, Maureen’s here to assist you with all your real estate needs. Give her a call today at 570-575-3947 or via email at [email protected].
