How My Family Came To LBI And Tuckerton
Michele Moritz | May 22, 2023


Rooted in Community. Driven by Excellence.
Raised in Tuckerton and on Long Beach Island, I am proud to represent the community my family has called home since 1930. Growing up locally gave me a grounded foundation shaped by service, integrity, and connection. My father has been a longtime local plumbing contractor, and my mother served as Mayor of Tuckerton — instilling in me a deep respect for community leadership and dedication.
After heading to New York City for college, I earned a BFA in Dance from Marymount Manhattan College and spent 20 years living and working in Manhattan. My career included both luxury corporate environments and small business startups, experiences that sharpened my professionalism, creativity, and commitment to excellence. I continue to stay connected to my teaching career and bring that same discipline and focus into my real estate work.
I returned home to New Jersey in 2017 with a renewed appreciation for this special coastal community. As a Realtor, I am not interested in being simply “good” — I am committed to excellence in every detail. I guide my clients with care, market knowledge, and a commitment to continuous growth and learning so I can provide the highest level of service possible.
Beyond real estate, I am honored to serve as a Trustee of The Tuckerton Library Association, Ocean County’s oldest library — a place I grew up around the corner from and hold close to my heart. I also teach yoga and ballet, passions that reflect my belief in balance, discipline, and lifelong learning.
I am proud to be part of The BayShore Team (originally Bayshore Agency), serving our community since 1946. Our office has built a longstanding reputation for integrity, exceptional support, and dedication to both clients and agents.
Whether you are buying, selling, renting (vacation or long-term), or seeking property management services, I look forward to building a lasting professional relationship with you — just as I have with many clients I’ve had the privilege of working with for over 15 years.
