If you're looking for assistance buying or selling, no matter what the location or price, I am honored to help you
Thank you for visiting my Facebook page. I have been helping people with their real estate needs since 2005 and have enjoyed every moment. In my “previous life” I worked as a registered nurse in a medical/surgical hospital setting. I loved helping patients and problem solving to make their realities the best they could be. I’ve noticed it’s much the same in Real Estate. Of course, the technical skills are critical but the relationships with my clients, my co-workers, my reputation in the community and my willingness to do whatever it takes to reach a mutually satisfactory result is what it’s all about. From first time homebuyers to empty nesters and everything in-between, I enjoy working with clients of all ages in all communities and price ranges. Whether you are “moving in” or “moving out”, the experience is really a major life passage and working side by side with a Real Estate professional who understands the art of negotiation, patience, emotions and nuance makes the process an enjoyable and successful one. I would be honored to work with you and happy to provide a client referral list upon request.
A personal note: I live with my husband and our Goldendoodle, Pearl, in Minneapolis and fortunately my four children, their spouses and my grandchildren all live in the Twin Cities area. In my spare time I enjoy playing tennis, walking around the city lakes and I do a bit of community volunteer work. I love my family, my job and the fantastic state of Minnesota, I am very fortunate.
Please contact me if I can help you with any of your real estate needs.

Testimonials:
August 2015
"Ellyn helped us find our new home in the Twin Cities. My husband has a new, high-profile job that required discretion, flexibility and focused determination of our real estate agent. Our move was long distance as well, adding to the stress of finding the right home.
Ellyn was tireless, upbeat and realistic in all of our search. Her connections made the work easier as well. Wonder how often the train nearby stops? Ellyn calls her congressman, who she knows well. In fact, wherever we traveled, people knew Ellyn. And people loved Ellyn.
Ellyn is the perfect combination of consummate professional and caring counselor. She put our family and our needs first despite numerous personal obligations, such as her daughter's wedding. I recommend her highly and without hesitation."
