Sal Cozzupoli Follows Through on His Promises

WRITTEN BY CYNTHIA BURNS

Sal Cozzupoli, a sales associate in the Allendale office, believes in karma. “You do good things and good things come to you.” This principle guides his professional and personal life.

He conducts real estate transactions as if he is the buyer or seller to guarantee the utmost quality. “ I follow through on promises to provide the best customer service experience to make the client happy.”

This approach has paid off. In his first year with Terrie O’Connor Realtors and again in 2020, Cozzupoli was named Top Realtor for the Allendale office. He garnered a spot in the President’s Circle, which represents the top 10 agents in the company. He earned the 2019 and 2020 NJ REALTORS ® Circle of Excellence Award, Silver Level ($6.5 million in sales), and the 5-Star Realtor Industry Award for quality service.

Prior to becoming a licensed real estate agent, he held corporate account management positions for big box retailers. At a friend’s suggestion, he made the career transition.

Each Christmas, Cozzupoli plays Santa at area hospitals. He volunteers at St. Peter’s Haven food pantry in Clifton and has slept on the streets of Newark to raise money for homeless children. His choice of charitable endeavors is not happenstance. For five years Cozzupoli worked for the Division of Youth and Family Services. “I have a soft spot for kids who are injured or hurt.” He is instilling this compassion in his three sons who join him stocking shelves and distributing food at St. Peter’s.
