I originally sought out Ellen because of her wealth of knowledge about the area. She was responsive right away and helped us hit the ground running within days. She educated us about the real estate market here and each of the steps in the process of buying a house, since we were first time home buyers. I felt comfortable to send a quick text about a potential home or to ask a question at any time of day (within reason, of course) and Ellen always responded quickly. She always had a positive attitude and steered us in the right direction. She also kept our spirits up when we lost a bid or two in this tough market and gave us hope our house was out there, and it was! We closed a little over a week ago, thank you Ellen!

Ellen is very knowledgeable... She explains things understandably and even goes beyond to help you learn about other important topics related to home buying and ownership. She is very receptive to her clients' preferences and responsive in communication.

Ellen was a huge help to us in selling our home. She was reliable and had lots of information to plan the sale of our home. We Were extremely impressed with her staging resources to sell our home which we were selling. It didnt even seem like our home in the pictures and we had high multiple offers on the home right away.

Her list of resources seem to be thoroughly reviewed and vast. All the little details were important to her; where she knew how to fix any overwhelming issues.
When we bought our new home She was available for all issues even up to and after closing. Her carefull attention to details gave us a support system that was always available.

Ellen was absolutely fantastic! She is so knowledgeable about the area (and surrounding areas). She’s prompt and professional. If you have a question, don’t expect her to just breeze over it with a yes or no answer. She will give you details, statistics and anything else you could possibly need. So glad to have found such a wonderful agent. We loved working with Ellen!

Ellen was a pleasure to have as our Real Estate Agent. She was very knowledgeable, professional and friendly to work with. We felt she went out of her way to help us find the perfect home. We would highly recommend her to anyone! Thanks for all your hard work!

We just don’t know how so say thank you for our new home. We want to thank you for getting us to intimately know what goes into buying a historic home. We thank you for all the experts that will par-take in the completing of the renovations. Last, when we had a few tough days, you fought for us. Anyone who needs a Realtor, Ellen has been the best in our decades of home buying. We especially wanted to share this with out of state buyers. Again, In our book, Ellen is the best. Thank-you from the bottom of our hearts for helping us find peace when we walk the land.

Moving to NC from Ireland was a big undertaking but thankfully we found Ellen though other peoples' testimonials on a Facebook page. We are so grateful that we chose her to represent us. She was always available to talk on the phone or answer emails. She kept us informed and she was always one step ahead of us. When we couldn't go to the house because we were thousands of miles away , she would go there on our behalf. Ellen was not pushy in any way but calm, well informed, excellent at communication. We cannot recommend her highly enough and would be happy to talk to anyone who was considering using her services.

Ellen was wonderful to work with. She knows the area, was easy to get ahold of and she is a great negotiator. Ellen kept us well informed throughout the process and offered her experience to help us make well informed decisions. We highly recommend her as an agent.

Ellen, working as my buyers agent, knew exactly what I was looking for and did not take me to see properties that she knew would not be of any interest to me. She was patient and always made herself available to me. When we found the right home, Ellen was able to get one of the lowest prices in the neighborhood for my home, $14,000 under the appraised value, even though we were negotiating through a multiple offer situation in a sellers market! In addition to all this she helped me and continues to help me with things that arise even after my closing. Not all agents would be that helpful once the deal was done. Thank you, Ellen, for all your help!

Ellen was a tremendous help finding the perfect home to meet both our spatial and financial needs. She was patient and supportive while searching for our first home before we even moved to North Carolina. Her knowledge of Raleigh and its surrounding areas helped us decide on the best fit for us. We are very lucky to have found her!

Ellen was wonderful! She understood what we were looking for even when we couldn't explain it to her. She always had an upbeat, positive attitude, and never grew tired of showing us listings, even though it took many months for us to find our home.

We recently sold a house using Ellen as our listing agent. Having compared and used agents in the past, we found that Ellen was very thorough with details and very receptive to answering questions and being someone we could bounce ideas off of. She is an out of the box thinker who adds little techniques that will help drive people to the house. For me the important characteristics are integrity, attention to detail and communication and Ellen fit that mold. Thanks for all your help Ellen!!

Ellen was a huge help to me in taking care of all of the little details of the buying and selling process so that I was not overwhelmed. She listened carefully so that she could offer us the best solutions for our needs. I was extremely impressed with her work in helping us stage our home which we were selling. Because of the attention to detail, we had multiple offers on the home days before we even had a chance to do the open house that we had scheduled for it.
