Ellie Hunter

Ellie Hunter brings a unique blend of Wall Street precision, entrepreneurial vision, and luxury home expertise to Compass. Her diverse career has equipped her with exceptional negotiation skills, strategic marketing insight, and a deep understanding of the Hamptons' luxury real estate market.

Before joining Compass, Ellie spent nearly seven years with Michael Davis Construction, one of the Hamptons' most respected luxury home builders. Working alongside one of the region's premier construction firms gave her invaluable experience in high-end residential development, design, project management, and the intricate details that distinguish exceptional homes. This insider perspective allows her to guide buyers and sellers with a level of knowledge that extends far beyond a traditional real estate transaction.

An entrepreneur at heart, Ellie previously founded and built a successful food company that partnered with local Hamptons farmers and expanded distribution into more than 800 retail locations nationwide, including Whole Foods Market. Growing a business from the ground up sharpened her expertise in branding, marketing, operations, and client relationships—skills she now leverages to position luxury properties for maximum exposure and value.

Ellie's professional foundation began after graduating with honors from the University of Bristol in England. She launched her career at IBM in London before joining Goldman Sachs, where she worked on the Equity Derivatives trading floor in one of the world's most demanding financial environments. After relocating to New York, she continued her career on Wall Street at Schonfeld Securities, supporting the firm's Chairman and Executive Committee. These experiences cultivated the discipline, analytical thinking, and calm decision-making that continue to benefit her clients today.

Known for her professionalism, discretion, and unwavering commitment to excellence, Ellie combines corporate sophistication with a highly personalized approach to real estate. Whether representing waterfront estates, new construction, investment opportunities, or distinctive Hamptons properties, she is dedicated to delivering exceptional results while making every transaction as seamless as possible.

Ellie believes every home has a story, and every client deserves an advisor who understands both the emotional and financial significance of the journey.
