“She found us a wonderful home!!“
“Ellen was a fantastic realtor to work with! She adjusted her schedule to fit ours, always had information prior to looking at a house, and did a great job of following up with the seller’s realtor if we had further questions. She was always working to help us, even behind the scenes. She always kept our interests in mind (even thought we had some crazy requests), and she found us a wonderful home!!”
–Monica L.
“Ellen did a FANTABULOUS job”
“Ellen did a FANTABULOUS job in helping us find our home! My husband and I had a huge list of “requirements” that we didn’t think was possible to ever find; he wanted a new home, but I wanted a neighborhood and yard with mature trees…we didn’t think it was possible. Ellen truly paid attention to us and gave us hope that we’d find what we were looking for. Because of her many years of experience in various “branches” of the home industry, plus her professionalism and knowledge of the area, she did an outstanding job! Ellen was easily accessible every time we had questions or needed something. Her husband, as well, has many years of experience in the home industry. They work together and make an incredible team! We, also, asked Ellen for a list of referrals for other needs that we had, and the referrals did above and beyond! Ellen is extremely knowledgeable in home buying, building, selling, finance, etc; we truly appreciated her experience! It’s been 3 months since we purchased our home, and she’s checked on us several times since moving in. Her thoughtfulness is exceptional! Thank you, Ellen! We love and appreciate you (and thanks to her husband, Todd, too)!

“I gave her a call and could not be happier”
“I am new to this area and when I was looking for a realtor Ellen Pool’s name kept coming up as a responsive, knowledgeable, and easy to work with professional. I gave her a call and could not be happier with my home buying experience! Ellen is not only a seasoned professional, she is kind and patient and took me to multiple homes to find the perfect home for us! She REALLY listened to what I was l looking for. When the perfect home came on market we had to move FAST and I was out of town. She took my husband to see the home and while he loved it, I was nervous to put in an offer without seeing it. I really trusted her though when she said, “this is just what you wanted!” She guided us in making an offer and we just closed this week! She was 100% right – the house is exactly what I wanted and we couldn’t be happier. She was more than our real estate agent – she became a friend and sometime therapist. I credit her 100% with making this process a smooth transition.”
– Jill R.

We love our house and we thank Ellen for that.”

“If you haven’t hired a realtor yet, you’ve just found her!! Ellen was so amazing while my husband and I were buying our first home. We didn’t have a huge budget but we didn’t feel like she spent any less time helping us! She answered all of my questions and made sure we were taken care of. The whole process was so easy and we trusted her completely. It was only about an hour from the time we saw the perfect house to the sellers accepting the offer…we couldn’t believe it! She always went above and beyond and we absolutely loved working with Ellen! “

“Ellen was great to work with”
“Ellen was great to work with and helped us along every step of the way. She referred us to a great staging company and a few other referrals to help us get our house ready to sell. She was extremely helpful to look after our home and check on contractor repair work while we had already moved and were out of state. We had multiple offers within the first couple days on the market and took an offer above asking price. During inspection and closing she even helped to find and schedule contractors who would do the necessary repairs identified on our contract. I’m very satisfied and appreciate everything Ellen did to help us sell our home. “
– Thomas H.
“We Love You Ellen!”
“Ellen was professional but friendly and made me feel very comfortable. She gained my trust as I watched her look out for me. With her experience and knowledge I had to do nothing. She contacted me every time I needed to sign. She sold my daughter her home and Brooke just loved her. I would recommend her to anyone I know. Her knowledge, professionalism, honesty, and superior work ethic far surpasses anyone I’ve worked with in the past. She kept the pressure off me to focus on my move. We Love You Ellen! “
– Connie B.
“There are not enough good things to say about Ellen.”
“There are not enough good things to say about Ellen. She is a life saver! We have been planning to move to Texas for well over a year and with less than a month until our move date we still hadn’t found a home to rent. I reached out to Ellen after a lot of recommendations and I couldn’t have made a better choice. She right away made me feel at ease with the process; letting me know that she has helped countless people move from out of the area. She got to work right away and found us a house within 72 hours of me reaching out to her. She helped my future landlord and property management company get information in a timely manner and she even talked me off the proverbial ledge many times. Moving to a totally new state without many people there to help with the transition can be stressful and Ellen just took all that stress off of my plate. She toured homes for us via FaceTime. She sent our applications in for us. She did it all! During this process she asked questions about us and what our goals would be in the future and when she found out those goals she didn’t stop working. She is setting us up with a plan to help us achieve our home buying goals in the years to come. I cannot wait to work with Ellen in the future and I cannot say how much she has truly allowed me to enjoy the little time I have left with my friends and family in our current home and location. I will recommend Ellen to all my friends and family in the future! “
– Jessica T.
“Ellen is a pleasure to work with”
“Ellen is a pleasure to work with and she made our home buying experience as stress free as possible. She maintained impeccable attention to detail and listened to our needs to match us with the best choice for us on the market. She is knowledgeable and realistic and goes above and beyond her requirements to facilitate a feeling of confidence and contentment in the decision making process, she ensured we obtained all of the available resources we needed to make the very best choices. Prior to the purchase of our home, she was willing to guide me out of some very bad advice and redirected us to a successful home search. Her continued willingness to help us in any capacity she is capable is a true testament to her solid character and her intense passion for what she does. I highly recommend her services. Through the entire home buying process and afterward, she is still there to assist. I am grateful to have had the pleasure of doing business with her and to have gained a friend and mentor in the process. “
