Elena's clients are SOLD on the
results she has helped them to achieve! Elena, your in-depth real estate knowledge,
exceptional professionalism, along with your detailed and organized marketing
skills, sets you apart from all other real estate agents that we have dealt
with. Your compassion made us so comfortable throughout the entire process of
selling our home. We will forever be grateful to you on how effortlessly you
guided us through the process of selling our home. Working with you was enjoyable
and the best real estate transaction we have ever experienced. Tom and Jan Wittmer (8 year Board
Member-SeaBluffe of Leucadia) The
process of buying a home is one of the biggest financial and personal decisions
one can make. We have found the home of our dreams because of your unceasing
support, obvious expertise, continuous availability, and reliable advocacy. We
appreciate how thoughtfully you guided us every step of the way. I now
understand the value of working with a competent realtor – by witnessing your
astute attention to our likes and dislikes in a home, assisting us with the
negotiation process, and shepherding us through the lengthy escrow process. You
helped us anticipate the hurdles every step of the way. Your professional
approach helped smoothed the ups and downs along that path. What
remains for us is a beautiful home to enjoy for a lifetime. How about that! Working with Elena and John
helped put us at ease concerning all the details surrounding our sale and move
to the East Coast. Their experience and local knowledge helped to give us a
clear picture of the market for our home so we could price it to sell in our
timeframe. Their detailed analysis, planning and handholding at the right times
were invaluable not only to selling our home, but in staying sane through a
stressful process! In addition, Elena's deep marketing skills were enormously
helpful in presenting our home in the best possible light for potential buyers.
We recommend Elena and John to anyone who we know is thinking or selling thier
home. - Mark Steele Elena, we picked you out
after interviewing 8 other agents and are delighted we did! You scored a 10 handling the sale of our home in Cardiff!
You are organized and on the ball. We will use you again and refer you to
others! -Stuart and Bonnie Resor Elena, Carol and I
want to thank you for making our home buying experience a positive
experience. We found your dedication and professional approach to real
estate a refreshing change relative to the normal real estate agents approach.
Having bought and sold twelve houses, we have experienced all levels of real
estate agent competency. We can honestly say that your
handling of our transaction, in the face of sometimes difficult circumstances,
was not only the most professional, but also the most enjoyable. - Ron and
Carol Olson As
a busy Ob/Gyn, buying and selling a house can be a nightmare. Yet,
working with Elena proved to be one of the most pleasant experiences I ever had
working with a Realtor. Elena was extremely professional,even in the
most challenging of times. Her attention to detail and level of
conscientiousness far exceeded any of my expectations. She is the best! -
Diana Hoppe, M.D., F.A.C.O.G. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!! We could not have
done it without you. We appreciate all your hard work and
determination. We know that you were the driver and made sure that
everything went through. We are very thankful to have had you on our
side!! We are so excited!!! - Dr. Robert and Therese White Elena,
you have been wonderful to work with! What really stuck us in you is your
high-level of professionalism and patience while giving us plenty of space to
think and contemplate our options. We will highly recommend you to any of our
network. If you want the truth, we will miss your frequent emails and
phone calls too! It is always fun to work with you. -The Achour Family I am so
glad to recommend your real estate services anytime!! You are a natural. I know
you take good care of people and you are quite savvy. I am so glad you are
finding success even in these tougher times! The best rise to the top!!! - Joe Elena, thank you! The service you have provided on our listing/final sale (our second transaction with you) has been
exceptional and we truly appreciate it! We would not hesitate to avail
ourselves of your services when future needs arise and will certainly refer
anyone in need of a Realtor your way! Kerry and Julie Kusiak Elena, I
have been meaning to let you know how pleased I was with your service. You
kept us informed and up to date through the whole process and I felt it was
very professional. I have bought and sold several times in my life and this was
by far the best and easiest process! Thanks
for all the help. Robert
& Chris Mills Dear Elena, Selling our vacant home, in the challenging real estate
market of 2008, was a daunting proposition, but your exemplary professionalism
made it all happen for us! You went way beyond our expectations, and
we are so thankful for your help with repairs, upkeep, and seeing
that everything was well taken care of in our empty home while we were living
2000 miles away. Your marketing ideas helped sell our home and we
were so appreciative of your constant updates on potential buyers and the
present market conditions in the area. The exceptional personal service you
provided should be commended and you can definitely count on our
recommendations for your service to anyone who wants their home SOLD! -Lura and
Donald Wagner Thank you for your professional help and personal interest in
seeing us through the listing and sale of our home in the adverse 2006 market. Your
advice based on realistic and up to date analyses of the changing market
resulted in the sale of our Leucadia home in a time frame and at a price with
which we were very satisfied. We were impressed by your willingness and
ability to keep our home highlighted through ads, open houses and realtor
presentations-and were surprised at how painless you made the
process for us! - Roger
and Sarah Baldwin Elena
was incredibly efficient, precise and pleasant to work with on our recent home purchase.
Her intimate knowledge of the coastal communities, combined with
her web-based tools, made the search process highly effective. She took the
time to fully understand what we were looking for, found it and skillfully
negotiated on our behalf with the sellers (since this was a FSBO). Throughout
the escrow and closing she followed through on every little detail and never
tired of explaining things to us. We love our new house and are grateful
to Elena for making this a fantastic and flawless experience! -Reza Kasnavi and
Fiona Kaper We are
glad we get to work together with you again Elena (Bought, sold, buy again).
We really appreciate your professionalism and expertise and your willingness to
go the extra 50 miles for us! It also helps that you have such a winning
personality. -The Smith Family Elena,
thank you for making our home-selling process so easy, enjoyable, and
profitable.
We appreciate your local market knowledge and are grateful for your active,
targeted marketing campaign to bring in qualified prospective
buyers. You were extremely professional from start to finish and always
kept us well-informed about the dynamic real estate market. Escrow
coordination was a breeze because of everything you did to manage inspectors,
repairmen, and the buyers' expectations. We are very comfortable in
recommending you to any of our friends or colleagues with San Diego real estate
needs. Thank you for all that you have done for us! -Pelin and
Brian Wood Thank
you so much for your professionalism and attentiveness with my recent transition
moving to New Jersey. I have not had a more aggressive, personal and
wonderful Realtor in all of my relocations. If this is the level of
service I can expect from a Realtor, I will always use Elena
Thompson! I will also certainly recommend you to all I know. Thanks
again for going above and beyond in helping me sell my home. -Angela
T. Professional,
detailed and extraordinary are just a few of the words that come to mind when I
think of the job that Elena did in selling our home. She was truly awesome. She met
everyone one of our individual needs and sold our home in a timely manner. She
not only met our needs for excellence, but went way beyond the call of duty. -Cassie
and Ryan Gold Thanks
again Elena. You went above and beyond what ought to be expected from a
Realtor! You made any problem that arose seem easily fixable and
indeed they were! Your marketing, advertising and CD were great
exposure and thanks to that, the property sold in a remarkably short
time. The whole experience was painless and I'll recommend you to
anyone I know needing a good Realtor in North County. -Dr. Robert Jaspan Good
job Elena! Thank
you very much for your assistance with the purchase of our new home in
Carlsbad. We are looking very forward to becoming part of this beautiful
community and you made it happen! It was a real pleasure
working with you and we would highly recommend you to
anyone who is seeking quality, efficient service. You handled our
transaction in a very professional manner and always kept us informed. This
was very important because we always knew where we stood throughout the
transaction. - The Menchacas I knew that choosing you as my
Realtor would lead to terrific results. I had to sell my home at a time
when the market was not great and I am happy to say that my experience working
with you was phenomenal. The effort was well organized and everything
was explained very clearly making the whole process very understandable (and
for this Italian, this matters!) I loved to discover that behind a good
business person (E.T.), there is also this warm solar person who is
pro-active, determined and knows when it is time to push. -Umberto
Bossi On behalf
of my husband and I, I just want to thank you for referring us to Elena
Thompson for our house hunting and also provide you with some feedback on her
performance. She has been absolutely wonderful to work with. From
our dealings, we can comfortably say that she is experienced, ethical,
trustworthy, and fun to work with. She was always conscience of our price
constraints/goals when she showed us properties. Once we identified the
property, she was prompt at getting us the relevant information so that we
could make a purchase decision. During the offer process, she is very
insightful and made suggestions on how we could make our offer
standout from others in this hot market (e.g., larger deposit) - this proved to
be the deciding factor in our offer being accepted. While in escrow, she
kept us updated and addressed our concerns via talking to the right
people or getting us the appropriate info/documents. It was very clear to us
that throughout the whole process, her goal was to help us find a place that we
truly liked as opposed to her wanting to do as little work as possible and rush
us into making a purchase. Again, we were delighted to have worked with
her this time and will not hesitate to use her again should the need arise.
What can I say, we just love her!!!!!! -M/M Holo Thank you just does not say enough for all of the work you have
done for us in the sale of our home Elena. You made the process
painless. I never had to worry about the whole process
because you made the details and any difficulties transparent to us!
Thanks for much for your help selling our home and for that matter, on the
purchase of our new home as well! You are phenomenal! -The
Seversons You
exceeded our expectations with the sale of our home and assistance with our new
purchase. Your pro-active communication and regular
updates were great, and your knowledge of North County coastal area and
professionalism go unmatched! -The Ebbers Thank
you for doing such a good job selling our home. We couldn't be happier than
to have you handling our sale- its been such a relief having this part of
the equation squared away. We feel like we are in good hands, and when we
sell our next house we hope you can take it on as well. We'll refer
any worthy friends we have to you for sure. -The Huttons "Buying
your first home should be fun and exciting!" Being up to my eyeballs in real
estate hell at the time, I just couldn’t fully embrace this concept. But my
friend, a former real estate agent, seemed so cheerful and enthusiastic about
the process, I began to suspect that possibly it was true, and that I was just
in the wrong hands. Eventually, I realized that your agent holds your entire
experience in her hands - I decided to make a switch, and I asked my friend for
a referral. That was the single best thing I could have done.
It led me to Elena Thompson. From then on, buying my first
home was a breeze. And yes, it was even fun and exciting! From start to finish,
Elena was proactive, positive, tireless, expertly informed, and plainly: a joy
and a relief. She constantly impressed me with the details she not only caught,
but followed up on, and fixed. -M. Berson. Elena, you
are a consummate professional and I am 100% satisfied with
the service you provided me during my home purchase/relocation to the area! -C.
Handel We wanted to thank you again Elena
for all of your help in finding our first dream home. We absolutely love
it here! You definitely made our first home-buying experience great.
Everything seemed to work smoothly and timely. Everything went well
and we have to thank you for the positive experience Elena. -M/M
Sellers I just
wanted to let you know how happy I am in my house. You knew just what
I wanted and found the perfect home for me! Thanks for all your special
attention and as Erika says, "Elena makes you feel like you're her
only client!" That's quite a feat when you're as busy as you are,
Elena. You always responded to my calls in a timely manner and I
appreciated your well-rounded service. Thanks for being a great friend
AND a great realtor. If I ever have property needs in the future, you'll be the
first one I'll call. Thanks again for everything. -S. Union My first impression of Elena was that
she is extremely organized, prompt, knows how to read people and most
importantly knows the North County coastal area in San Diego unbelievably
well. When it came time for me to buy a condo/home, E.T. was an easy
choice to use as a realtor. Elena understands that the key to both
her and customer's success is knowing and understanding their needs and
preferences. She asks a lot of questions and spends time getting to
know you and your likes/dislikes. She involves you in the process from
the beginning....if you're a first time buyer, she will give you honest
feedback on what you can/can't afford as well as educate you on the process as
well as the do's and don’ts of home buying. Being extremely busy in my
job at the time when E.T. and I were home shopping, it was comforting to
know that she was at the wheel and driving the process (I didn't know
E.T. could drive!). At the same time, she wasn't afraid to let me
know when something needed to be done on my end. Although
extremely busy herself, she was in constant touch and walked me through
everything, step-by-step. She also wasn't afraid to give homework
assignments (listings for drive by's, reading material) as well, which was
great because it got me up to speed in the basics of home buying as well as
providing me the opportunity to learn more about my own likes/dislikes.
The drive-by's we did were well thought out and got progressively better each
time out as she fine tuned our properties to fit my developing tastes. I
firmly believe she is to credit in the fact that I have never second guessed my
decision in that she did an outstanding job as my agent. -M.
James I am so
excited about my new little home Elena! It seems like some invisible
string led me to your open house on Chinquapin. If it were not for you
and Helen, I would probably still be looking. I have been reading a book called
"There are no Accidents". And I believe it now. Thank You... Thank
You again for all of your help. I will definitely keep in touch. -M.
Grabo In
January 2003 we decided to embark on a search for a new home in San Diego area
and contacted Elena Thompson through a referral from a work colleague. We were
living in Bucks County, Philadelphia at the time and set up a vigorous
telephonic & e-mail correspondence with Elena. Elena was most accommodating
during this early contact asking penetrating questions regarding our knowledge
of the San Diego area, what our preferences might be for a home and the
"right" neighborhood etc. Elena immediately profiled a number of
homes to meet the intended specifications and set up delivery of listings we
could visit via the Web. This proved to be a significant step in the process
because we were able to give her detailed feedback over a period of time and
she winnowed the candidates down. During the entire time Elena was
patient, accommodating, proactive and assertive. She always had our interests
at heart and never once pushed her own agenda with the result that we are
extremely happy with our purchase. Elena’s contact did not only extend
to the search process but she covered a lot of extra ground regarding
house inspection, recommendation of financing, scouting the neighborhood for
suppliers that we would need and post-closure has been very warm and
personable. Rosemary and I would recommend Elena without hesitation as
being a most professional and personable realtor and it has been a real
pleasure dealing with her. -M/M Webster Elena has
provided us with outstanding service through 3 real estate transactions,
including the purchase and sale of our first home. Her thorough knowledge
coupled with patience and dependability was just what we needed. And she
continued to exceed our expectations as she helped us find and purchase our
wonderful home in the troubled waters of the current 2007-2008 real estate market.
The entire process, from just starting to search to the first champagne
toast in our new home, took over 7 months and Elena continually pushed to get
us the best house at the best price, while also making it seem almost
effortless. She continues to improve her real estate business through
careful study of current research and trends as well as adopting new technology
to improve her client's experience. Elena always surprises us with her
willingness to go above and beyond her duties as a real estate agent and has
provided us with valuable advice on income from rental property,
landlord/tenant relationships, and real estate documentation, pulling from her
personal experience as a real estate investor. And, Elena always provides all
this with a warm, friendly attitude and a smile! -Kyle and Matt Barre Elena

I have sold and
bought homes this year and so I have experienced both sides of the transaction
and know there is a lot more to a successful real estate transaction than
simply processing forms. Elena, you were extremely thorough,
organized and punctual in managing every detail. You kept me informed
throughout the process. Most importantly, you were my advocate and
ensured my interests came first and foremost, even if it meant more work for
you. Great job! -Portia S.
