I'm a realtor in Hoboken NJ, just across the Hudson River from downtown Manhattan, and I specialize in condos. I was an attorney for a number of years and have an MBA in finance. My husband, also a realtor, is the other half of the Turoff Realty Team. We have a healthy, vibrant real estate market here in Hoboken. Going to work every day is more fun than the last. We deal with many first time buyers so I get huge satisfaction out of sharing my 25+ years of real estate investment experience with them. The big challenge in dealing with gen X and Y, of course, is staying in synch with the technology as it constantly changes. But then I just love a challenge.

I left corporate law and we founded an adventure travel company, La Corsa Tours, back in 1992. La Corsa Tours offers challenging bicycle vacations in France, Spain and Italy and I am still involved in that part-time. I speak fluent Italian and conversational French and Spanish and love both traveling and cycling to this day.

Hoboken, the "mile square city" is just across the Hudson River from downtown Manhattan. Most of our 45,000 residents commute about 10 minutes into the city for work but we get to live in a place that's a real community. As a realtor and home owner, I don't walk down the street without seeing a few people I know. (We're as urban as NYC, so walking or biking is the way to go.) My other passions are my yoga practice and our beautiful golden/chow dog, Sempai.

    Our MLS only runs on IE and on a PC. We can't even use another browser! I can automatically email new listings to my Blackberry but they show up as a link that's so small when I open it it's very hard to read. As a realtor in a dense, urban market, I don't care much about what properties match my criteria in a certain location - there would probably be too many matches to be meaningful. What I do want to know is when the new properties hit and what they look like so I can get my buyers to them first! My blackberry already works as a GPS. I use it for personal out-of-town trips all the time. Lori Turoff Realtor Hoboken NJ

    Jay & Misty get it. Look - if there are agents who truly believe that the way to do business today is to keep information from the customer, let them. All it means is more opportunity for success for those of us who know better. Our value to the consumer does not come from parsing out 'secret' listing information. Any ageny who doesn't realize that has a lot to learn. - Lori
