Some comments from Ellen’s recent Buyers:
“Ellen was always prepared & extremely knowledgable about the market and Northampton / Lehigh County areas. She is very connected and has extensive networks that were helpful in meeting our needs.

She took us around extensively when we requested time w/ her, to explore new areas.” — Lisa Natishyn & Wayne Stitt, Forks Township buyers
“Ellen is honest, knowledgeable, gets paperwork all set up for you, and keeps you informed. She is very professional and I definitely will recommend her to
other people, and have in the past.” – Janeen Adams, College Hill * bought & sold 3 properties with Ellen.
“Quite informed about older homes in College Hill. She is available beyond office hours and weekends… felt like a 24/7 Realtor! We liked Ellen’s honesty, knowledge & availability. She did not push for the sale, even though we were looking for 2 years. She kept updating us with new listings.” – Robin Bonsal, College Hill
“…the truth is that the market doesn’t really matter… what matters is finding that place you can call home. we rented our apartment thru you, we bought our first house thru you, and there’s no doubt we will be calling when we are ready for our first sell! You found us our perfect place and we couldn’t be happier. We are excited to watch this city grow and hope to grow in this home with it… THANK YOU.” — 1st time home-buyers in Easton, 2008
