Darlene Bandazian Appointed to New Jersey Real Estate Commission

RAMSEY, NJ – January 16, 2019 – In late December, New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy made his first appointments to the New Jersey Real Estate Commission, including naming Darlene Bandazian of Christie’s Special Properties Real Estate Services as an appointee and representative from northern New Jersey. Bandazian, Christie’s Special Properties’ Vice President of Regional Business Development, has been serving the real estate community, in various capacities for more than 30 years.

“This is a well-deserved recognition of Darlene's integrity, expertise and experience. Given that the New Jersey Real Estate Commission ensures the enforcement of real estate law and protects consumer rights, Darlene's skills and experience make her a perfect fit for the Commission and she will make great contribution in helping the Commission meet its objectives,” said Ilija Pavlovic, President and CEO of Christie’s Special Properties Real Estate Services.

Real estate laws in the United States are state-regulated, with the interpretation, implementation and enforcement of real estate laws falling under the jurisdiction of state-based commissions. For the New Jersey, members of the Real Estate Commission are appointed by the Governor.

With nearly 30 years’ experience in real estate, Darlene has served in a variety of roles that include sales associate, broker-associate, branch manager and regional vice president for local and global companies. Darlene is a member of the National Association of Realtors, the New Jersey Association of Realtors, the Real Source Board of Realtors, New Jersey Multiple Listing Service, and the Garden State and Hudson Multiple Listing Services.

“I am very honored by my appointment to the New Jersey Real Estate Commission. Our industry is about providing the best service to our customers and that fundamental element has been the constant focus of my career,” said Bandazian. “I will continue to bring that commitment to this new state appointment, ensuring the proper administration and enforcement of New Jersey’s real estate licensing laws.”

In her current role as Vice President of Regional Business Development for Christie’s Special Properties, Bandazian oversees the growth of the organization’s brokerage locations in New Jersey, as well as participating in the process to identify new future locations for the organization. She also assists in the development of agent training programs that encompass both proven techniques and cutting-edge and trending concepts.
