Emily Tidswell has always believed that home is more than just a place—it’s where memories are made, families grow, and life unfolds. Her passion for helping others achieve their vision of home, combined with her lifelong appreciation for architecture, design, and community, naturally led her to a career in real estate.

A New Jersey native, Emily’s roots run deep throughout the state. She was born and raised in Bergen County, attended Monmouth University (Go Hawks!), spent her early career in Hudson County, and now proudly calls Atlantic Highlands home, where she lives with her husband, two daughters, and their Spanish Water Dog rescue, Lucy.

Long before becoming a REALTOR®, Emily’s fascination with real estate began as a child. She eagerly looked forward to picking up the weekly home listing circulars at the grocery store and convinced her mom to take the "long way home" just to admire beautiful neighborhoods and distinctive homes. That curiosity evolved into a genuine passion for architecture and design, which was further cultivated while studying Art History in London. Throughout her successful career in the beauty and fashion industry, Emily hosted events in some of the area’s most stunning private residences and luxury venues, sharpening her eye for craftsmanship, style, and the details that make every home unique.

Emily’s professional background has taken her across multiple cities and countries, where she developed exceptional relationship-building, negotiation, marketing, and client service skills. Today, she brings that same professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail to every real estate transaction, ensuring her clients feel informed, confident, and supported from beginning to end.

She chose to join NextHome Peninsula Realty Group because of its client-first philosophy, collaborative culture, innovative marketing, and deep commitment to serving the communities of Monmouth and Ocean Counties. Emily shares the brokerage’s belief that every client deserves an exceptional experience built on honesty, communication, and personalized service. She is proud to be part of a team that combines cutting-edge technology with genuine local expertise to help buyers and sellers achieve their goals.

Emily often refers to Monmouth and Ocean Counties as the "MC Vortex"—a place so full of beautiful beaches, vibrant downtowns, incredible restaurants, parks, and welcoming communities that once people experience it, they never want to leave.

Whether helping first-time buyers, growing families, or those looking for their next chapter, Emily is passionate about helping clients find not just a house, but a place they are proud to call home.
