Meet Claire Wren

Twenty years of selling homes along the Navesink and Shrewsbury rivers, with more than $600 million sold and a reputation for honest pricing and very calm negotiations.

Claire grew up two streets from the Navesink and sold her first house, a Fair Haven cape, in 2006. Twenty years and more than 740 homes later, she’s the agent people call when they want a straight answer about what a house is worth, and a plan to get it.

Her listings are known for their photography and film, careful staging and quiet launches to a list of buyers she knows by name. Her buyers know she’ll tell them which houses to walk away from.
