We’re growing in the Garden State! The Agency is excited to announce the launch of its first independently owned and operated office in New Jersey in the borough of Rutherford. This marks our 11th office in the New York tri-state area and joins existing locations in Jersey City , Manhattan , Brooklyn Park Slope , Fairfield County – New Canaan , South Shore, North Shore, Fire Island, Gold Coast , Bridgehampton, and East Hampton . K nown as The Agency Rutherford , the new office will be led by Managing Partner and Owner, Jennifer Darby Metzger , a longtime real estate professional with decades of expertise and a long-standing family connection to the Garden State, spanning more than 70 years.
“We are thrilled to announce the launch of our new Rutherford office, furthering The Agency’s growth across New Jersey and the New York tri-state area,” said Mauricio Umansky , CEO and Founder of The Agency. “Under Jennifer’s leadership, this new office will allow us to better serve our clients across New Jersey, providing the white glove service and innovative marketing that define The Agency brand.”
Known as the “Borough of Trees,” Rutherford’s family-friendly neighborhoods, top-rated schools, and easy access to Manhattan offer a peaceful retreat just outside the hustle of New York City.
Located just 10 miles from Manhattan, Rutherford is an ideal spot for NYC commuters. Sports fans are also just a mile away from MetLife Stadium, home to major events and games. For those seeking a coastal escape, Asbury Park, Ocean Grove and Long Beach Island are just a 60-minute drive away. The area is also rich in outdoor spaces, with 15 nature walks within 15 miles, including Kingsland Park and Richard W. DeKorte Park. Plus, the 4.5-mile Morris Canal Greenway offers the perfect setting for hiking, biking, and birdwatching.
“Rutherford is one of New Jersey’s most sought-after communities, with its unique combination of suburban tranquility and urban convenience,” said James Ramsay , EVP of The Agency’s Franchise Division. “Its proximity to Manhattan, strong sense of community, and diverse housing options make it a prime market for our continued growth in the tri-state area.”
“Our transition to The Agency represents a commitment to innovation while staying grounded in the personal relationships and local expertise that have defined our business for decades,” said Jennifer. “At the heart of The Agency Rutherford is a belief that luxury is not a price point—it’s an experience. We recognize the vital role real estate agents play in shaping communities and elevating standards in this profession, and we’re thrilled to partner with an established and globally recognized brand such as The Agency to further service our clientele across the region..”
