JoAnn Petrizzo

My real estate career began in 1987. Over the years, I have helped many find their dream home. In addition, I have been involved in redevelopment for more than a decade and consider myself very knowledgeable in the field. I have organized and participated in seminars across the country as NJ’s spokesman, educating the public regarding brownfields and redevelopment financing. A former Toms River municipal official, I was recently honored with several awards, including the Heritage Foundation’s Who’s Who 2011 & 2015, the Five Star RE Professional Award, the Italian Voice’s Who’s Who of Italian Americans, and the NJAR Circle of Excellence Award for the past 14 years, 2009-2022. As a real estate professional I have served as court appointed commissioner in eminent domain cases. I am committed to working hard for my clients to find them the perfect real estate solutions.


Realtor Associate, Marita DeCarlo: (201) 705-3017

Marita Decarlo

Born and raised in Northern New Jersey, I received my BA at Montclair State University. For my husband and I, there is no better place to raise a family than New Jersey.

Some of my happiest memories were during my 16 year career in Early Childhood Education which was followed by a 21 year position as a senior level Sales & Marketing Executive with a high-end European company. I credit all these years with honing my skills in providing quality service and attention to all those that I was fortunate to cross paths with.

Our move to Southern New Jersey, some years ago, offers us more outdoor time and a more relaxed lifestyle. Whether reading a book by the water, walking our dog or just hiking through the many parks and trails, Southern New Jersey has proven to be a perfect fit.

With our move I chose to launch my final career with ADK REALTY, a specialized boutique Real Estate Agency. The ADK philosophy is giving the client the best personalized service and experience we can provide. I respect and appreciate those qualities in a company.

I always take pride in providing my clients exceptional service and results that will move them into their next chapters. I'm still excited by each new opportunity to play a part in my clients' future. I look forward of being of service to you!

James DeSimone

After 33 years of owning our successful real estate company in Bergen County, my wife Milena and I have moved to the Jersey Shore. We moved to a retirement community in Toms River and what a change it was for us. Here, the taxes, maintenance and association fees are actually affordable. There are beautiful clubhouses, social events and something to do every day. Please accept my invitation to come down and see for yourself. I was so impressed with the professional service Milena and I experienced working with ADK Realty that I had no doubt about hanging my license here. Our office is located at 1071 Rt. 37 West, Unit 9, Toms River, NJ, where I work as a broker associate. If you or anyone you know is thinking of shore retirement or maybe just finding a summer home, please call me and I'll be happy to help. Your phone call or referral would be an honor.
