A Word About Turpin Thank you for your interest in Turpin Real Estate, and for taking some time to familiarize yourself with our services.

John D. Turpin, President
Focus. Commitment. Service. Turpin Real Estate is a leading independent, family-owned real estate agency serving New Jersey since 1960. With five offices and 130 agents, Turpin occupies a unique place in the market: large enough to provide all the tools and resources required in a fast-paced, global industry, but small enough to ensure high standards of service throughout the organization.
Exceptional Professionals
Client-Focused
Turpin associates are united around our shared values of professionalism, expertise, collaboration and above all integrity. Every member of the team, from administrative support to marketing, to sales and leadership is aligned in their commitment to providing our clients with the highest level of service.
We hold our fiduciary duty to our clients above all else and this commitment guides our every step. Our experienced and dedicated management team is committed to ensuring that our agents are never without support, while our marketing and operations team sees to the smooth execution of the many facets of the listings and sales process.
Fiercely Independent
Service
Over three generations of family ownership, Turpin has established itself as the premier independent real estate firm in our area. Unencumbered by corporate bureaucracy, we blend a creative and forward-thinking approach with experience and agility in order to provide the best experience for our clients.
We are proud of the reputation we have earned over the years, and eagerly embrace all listing opportunities. From expansive estate properties to charming village homes and convenient condominiums, we take pride in treating all of our clients with respect, diligence and care.
Local Expertise We live and love all things local and are eager to convey everything that North Central New Jersey has to offer to its residents. Our agents commit to learning the ins and outs of the communities they serve every bit as much as the houses they market. Through our video library, our social media focus on local happenings and proprietary market intelligence, we take every opportunity to shout from the rooftops our deeply held belief that Life Here truly is Grand.
Deep Roots We opened our first office in the old Mendham firehouse in 1960 and have been putting down roots ever since. We take great pride in being the area’s longest running independent agency, and honor that legacy with a real commitment to the communities we serve. As the area’s leading independent real estate agency, it is our pleasure and our duty to shine a spotlight on this special corner of the world.
Supporting Our Communities Turpin Real Estate has long supported the organizations that help make this area of New Jersey so special. Environmental groups, medical facilities and organizations that support children are our focus. At the same time, our agents can often be found out and about, volunteering for their favorite charities.
A Family Tradition In 1960, Virginia K. Turpin opened a small real estate office in the Old Firehouse building on Main Street in Mendham. Her goal: to provide the best service to area buyers and sellers. Under the steady guidance of her son, Jack, Turpin Real Estate blossomed into the premiere independent real estate firm in the region. An innovator with keen business acumen, Jack’s tenure as president was defined by his commitment to high standards and his passion for the area. With third-generation family member John Turpin at the helm, our management, agents and staff are committed to a new era of excellence. While embracing the opportunities of a digital world we continue to set the standard of superior service and unwavering integrity, as we have done since 1960.
