Connecting with your customers is a key to satisfied clients. I got to see first hand Mary Ellen's care and concern for her clients. If you need a realtor, you can't go wrong with her.
Joe
01/21/2014
I first hired Mary Ellen to find an investment property on very short notice. The market was cratering and although Mary Ellen had worked tirelessly with the foreclosing bank and had a commission on the line, she supported a decision to wait for a better deal. That is integrity. Mary Ellen continues to update me on options and market conditions. She is on the client's side first which is very impressive in today's world.
Michelle

Mary Ellen firmly believes in providing a full-service solution to her clients. She invests time consulting with home buyers and sellers and providing informational seminars to help fully educate them about today's rapidly changing market so that they are able to make the best decision for their family.

I can't imagine anyone working harder to take care of clients than Mary Ellen. She has a special approach in that she really does an intense amount of homework up front with each buying client so when they go looking at houses the process is much more efficient, only viewing properties that are truly the best fit. I have had the pleasure of working with some of her clients after they purchase and it is obvious how strong their relationship is and how much they trust her judgment.

Mary Ellen is a consummate professional. In this day of lackluster customer service, she is committed to helping her clients in any way possible. Few real estate agents really consult with their clients regarding their wants and needs, but Mary Ellen wants to insure her clients know every detail of the transaction. You can be sure that dealing with her will be an experience that will enhance your real estate process. Whether buying or selling, she is the one who will go the extra mile in fulfilling your needs.

My husband and I are greatful for your guidance and professionalism through the trying endeavor that buying a house presents. I know we've been demanding and sometimes unreasonable when it came to our demands. You've answered all our concerns and we look forward to referring our friends and co-workers to your agency. You are an asset to your profession.
