★★★★★
"I can't overstate how grateful we are for Ellen.. She was kind, communicative, thoughtful, and knowledgeable--everything you could possibly want from a realtor®. Home-buying is such a stressful and often frustrating process, but it was so much easier--and even fun--for us because we had such incredible people in our corner. She did video-walkthroughs when we couldn't see properties ourselves, reassured and counseled us through every step of the buying process, and always respected our hopes and needs. We recommend her unreservedly and enthusiastically. " - Ed Yong

★★★★★
"I can’t say enough about the way Tricia handled the sale of my home. This was a cherished property that was built for our family and Tricia dealt with every aspect with care and the utmost professionalism. This was a challenging property with a lot of preparation necessary and a remote seller. She dealt with every vendor and us with respect and efficiency-even pitching in herself. She managed expectations extremely well which was of the highest importance to me and she was very responsive throughout the months-long process. Best decision you can make." - Dorothy Dreessen

★★★★★
"We had a wonderful experience working with Ellen to buy our first home. She walked us through every stage of the home-buying process -- from how to read disclosure packets efficiently to making competitive offers. She was incredibly patient and caring with our process, which included multiple pivots and changes. Ellen was very knowledgeable - helping us gauge realistic prices in a wild market - yet never put any pressure on us to stretch beyond our limits. She is a fantastic coach (and occasionally therapist), and was available whenever we needed her for questions. Ellen landed us in a beautiful home well-below our maximum budget -- we couldn't be happier!" - Xander

★★★★★
"Tricia was the perfect choice to sell our family home in Lafayette. Her attention to detail, follow through, and knowledge of the market and local area helped us sell our house as soon as it hit the market. She acted as a trusted advisor, navigating some tricky challenges with a calm, positive attitude and kept us on track throughout the process, making appropriately-prioritized choices and finding just the right support companies to get the house ready in a timely manner. I heartily recommend calling Tricia when selling a home."

★★★★★
"Ellen is a fantastic agent. She is kind, yet incisive and has real time knowledge of the housing market. She was always available for showings or discussing offers, comps, etc. With the discrepancies between Bay Area list and sale prices, her advice and experience were critical in helping us to make the right offer on the right house. After she sent us off with the keys and a bottle of champagne, I found myself missing our weekends of seeing listings and laughing about staging and architectural mishaps. I wholeheartedly recommend Ellen to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. " - Arjun K

★★★★★
"What a dynamo! Ellen represented me as a seller, and I am so thankful for her. She is thoughtful, and always had time to answer all my questions. I appreciated her expertise in the Bay Area market, and her connections/advice for updating my home for sale. She also helped me navigate complicated HOA requirements and regulations. Ellen made the sale a breeze, and helped ease my anxiety through the process. " - Krista T
