Rumson Communities
A trusted name in
Rumson real estate
For over two decades, Cynthia Aylward has been the go-to Realtor for families buying, selling, and investing in Rumson and the surrounding Monmouth County communities.
As a proud member of O'Brien Realty, she combines the resources of an established brokerage with the personal attention only a dedicated local agent can provide. She knows these neighborhoods — their streets, their schools, their market trends — because she lives and works here every day.
Whether you're navigating a first-time purchase, preparing to sell a family home, or exploring investment opportunities, Cynthia brings clarity, candor, and a relentless work ethic to every client relationship.
Deep roots in the
Jersey Shore
I specialize in Rumson and the surrounding communities along the Navesink River and the Jersey Shore, bringing intimate neighborhood knowledge to every transaction.
What my clients say
"Cynthia made what we thought would be a stressful process feel completely manageable. She listened to what we needed, showed us homes that actually fit our criteria, and negotiated a price we were thrilled with. We couldn't have asked for a better experience."
"We listed with Cynthia after two unsuccessful attempts with another agent. She priced our home correctly from day one, staged it beautifully, and we had multiple offers within a week — above asking price. Her knowledge of the Rumson market is unmatched."
"As someone relocating from out of state, I needed an agent who could be my eyes and ears on the ground. Cynthia sent detailed videos, shared honest neighborhood insights, and never pressured me. She found us the perfect home in Shrewsbury — exactly what we were looking for."
