Ellie went above and beyond at every step of the process!

As an out-of-state buyer, she provided knowledgeable recommendations on potential areas and stepped up to attend key milestones when I wasn't able to make it down to NC! I highy highly recommend working with Ellie!!

We highly recommend Ellie!

She helped us buy our first home and was a knowledgeable resource throughout the process. She was quick to respond if we had a question, thorough in explaining each step, and detail-oriented along the way. We felt that she had our best interest at heart. If you’re looking to buy or sell a home, give Ellie a call!

Ellie helped us sell our home this year and she could not have been more helpful and professional throughout the whole process.

She gave great advice and explained everything in a way that was easy to understand. She was quick to answer any questions we had and reassured us when we had concerns. We felt extremely comfortable selling our home with Ellie and would highly recommend her to anyone buying or selling a home.

My wife and I worked with Ellie to purchase our first home and we could not have asked for a better person and partner to help us with this process!

Ellie made sure we were extremely well informed on all the details and nuances of the process from beginning to end. She moved quickly to set appointments and get as much details as possible from sellers to help us make an informed decision. We also have to give big kudos to Ellie for her communication as she's always very quick to respond and makes sure we have all the information we need. Her analysis of the neighborhoods and comps helped us feel confident when it came time to submit an offer. We were lucky to be able to close on the house we wanted and Ellie was there every step of the way during the closing process. The craziness of the market made us think we might not be able to really find something right for us and be able to actually close on a house but we are very thankful that Ellie was in our corner. We have already recommended her highly to friends and family. Thank you Ellie!

Ellie went above and beyond to make our experience as first time homebuyers an amazing one - not to mention in the middle of a very hectic market!

Because of Ellie's excellent guidance, we ended up finding (& winning against multiple offers) a home we ADORE and are even more happy with each day we live here. I'd say we tend to be very cautious people with these kinds of things, and these are the reasons Ellie especially helped us: - From our very first meeting she did a great job of breaking down and educating us on the process, including for the market & locations we were interested in. We had some flexibility on location & are not from North Carolina, and the recommendations she gave for additional communities in the Triangle to check out were very good ones. - She is incredibly reliable, prompt to answer all communications with us & with all the other parties we worked with through the process. She has a great knack for anticipating needs and next steps proactively. - Finally, she is just a joy to work with! It was not easy to find the home we finally ended up with, but her positive & kind, yet practical attitude really made a difference. You can tell she is really invested in helping her clients find their best home. I would highly recommend Ellie for first-time homebuyers in the area, but would also encourage folks to check her out for any other realty needs you have.

Ellie is the epitome of a go getter Rock-Star!

She helped us find a rental in a completely daunting market. She did so in the first 2 days of her asking if she could help and gathering our needs. Better than that, she snagged one on the very first morning of it's listing, putting us first in line. We also used Ellie to sell our home. I have to say she promised the world, but delivered the stars. Her advice for pricing, timing, coming soon, marketing etc were fantastic! In a rougher market a virtual tour may have been a welcome addition, but even without it Ellie managed to blow our highest expectations out of the water. She presented all offers in an easy to digest grid view while highlighting strengths and weakness' of each along the way. She made a very competitive multi-offer scenario easy to navigate. When our first buyers fell through due to issues on their side, Ellie swooped back in again to get us another accepted offer within 3 days at over 98% of the original offer with absolutely no additional drama on our part. While I'm sure Ellie has a full life, you wouldn't know it by how quickly she responds. I felt like I was her only client as she always got back to us quickly and with a well researched answer!

Ellie worked so hard to help me sell my townhome in the RTP area!

Her knowledge of the market, how to competitively price my property, attract buyers, negotiate the sale, communicate with myself and the buyer’s agent, the closing process, etc made the sale so much less stressful than I expected. Ellie provided a personal touch by handling certain details to make my experience easier and seamless. She was professional, available and followed through on every detail. I highly recommend her service if you are buying or selling. She will work to get you the best deal, or put you in touch with someone who can. From residential to luxury… Ellie is there for your real estate needs!

My wife and I had a wonderful experience working with Ellie!

We were moving to Raleigh, NC from New York City and due to time constraints and the lease we were under approaching expiration, we could only make to visits to Raleigh to hunt for a place. We got connected with Ellie and she showed us multiple properties during our 2 visits. She listened to us, she considered that we didn't know the are too well and she provided us guidance and we felt like we were able to trust her. We were coming to Raleigh looking to start a family in a safe and quiet place, and I feel that Ellie did a great job finding that type of place for us, even though we put her under a time crunch. I really look forward to one day working with Ellie when we begin looking to purchase a home!

Working with Ellie was an amazing experience.

She is extremely hardworking and is very knowledgeable. Her advice on every detail made the difference and helped sell our house in 3 days for a lot more than we ever expected. If you are looking to sell or buy a home I highly recommend Ellie.

Ellie was wonderful to work with and helped us find our dream rental property!

She was very responsive, prompt, and very kind during and after the process. Definitely would recommend working with Ellie if you're in the market for buying/selling/renting!

Ellie is a true professional and I cannot say enough about how this benefits her clients.

She is knowledgeable, committed to her profession with on-going learning, and has a great understanding of the other professions that interact with real estate such as lending. One of her best traits is that she has a genuine concern for doing what is in the best interests of her clients and a relentless work ethic in serving them.

"As a first time homebuyer, I was unfamiliar with the process and what may lay ahead. Ellie was exceptional about answering my many questions and connecting me with fabulous vendors. She was present with me during the entire process and I have already recommended her to several first time homebuyers. Ellie helped us find the home of our dreams in Raleigh and I could not be more grateful!"

"Ellie is the best realtor my husband and I have worked with! After being ignored by our last realtor, Ellie came in and made the whole process as easy as possible for us, as first time home owners. Ellie makes sure to be accommodating and explain everything down to every detail, which helps if you know nothing about real estate. Even though it was not an easy process, Ellie made sure to hold our hand at every step. My husband and I will forever be thankful to Ellie, for helping us buy our first home."

"I met Ellie by chance at an Open House. I had been going to open houses for at least 4 years!! Whelp, I'm glad I went to that one, because she got the ball rolling and I stopped the never-ending search for the perfect home. She was quick to answer all questions or reach out to whomever to get the information we needed. She sold my home and got us in a new home that SHE found with all the things we wanted within 2 months! Also, I loved the attention and care she took into getting me ready to sell my home and the pictures looked amazing! She helped my fiancé with questions he had as he was a first-time homeowner. I can't say enough great things about her! Not to mention the wonderful housewarming surprise. Ellie Rocks!"
