"We met at an open house during a time when my husband and I were passively feeling out the market. She was the only agent that took the time to listen to our "house goals" and work with us to get us in a position for us to confidently start actively looking at houses.

As first time buyers, I appreciated how Ellen was super thoughtful in her communication and analysis of the homes we were looking at. There's no question that she cares about her clients and will go out of her way to make sure clients are happy with their offer, and purchase. We can confidently say that our first home purchase wouldn't have happened without her!

Post offer acceptance, Ellen went above and beyond to get us the right coverage before close and move in. A lot of what she handled for us (warranty, inspections, etc) would not have even been on our radar so we're thankful that her expertise helped make the first time purchase/move in process easier.

Thank you Ellen!
" - Christina, Buyer - Oakland

"As a first time home buyer I didn’t know where to start when it came to seriously trying to buy a home in the Bay Area. My husband and I met Ellen at an open house and from the beginning she really listened to what we were looking for, was knowledgeable about the market and we knew we could trust her.

Ellen walked us through the whole process. Whenever we ran into a question or problem we couldn't solve, Ellen stepped in and solved it. She was incredibly responsive and quickly answered our texts and emails. She had many helpful recommendations, and we found a mortgage broker with a great rate thanks to her advice.

In the background of the whole process, Ellen was solving problems and handling things I was never even aware of like coordinating with the many, many people (mortgage broker, title company, insurance and seller to name a few). Even after closing she continued to provide excellent support and guidance.

Ellen made an intimidating process feel a little easier. We’re so glad we found her and recommend her 100% to anyone looking to purchase a home in the Bay Area.
" - Anna, Buyer - Richmond
