Chris was conscientious, efficient in responding to requests and inquiries. Always willing to show properties, I saw over 20, and has people and resources available when I was ready to move forward on contractors, lending and closing. Knowledgeable, honest and spoke the truth. - Kevin for Chris Ellis
We think we should be thanking you for all your efforts that resulted in a more than satisfactory, dare I say super, sale of the house. As I have told people here we sold it for more than we could ever have paid for a house. You went beyond any expectations we had and made the process seamless. - Adrian and Page for Chris Ellis

A 5 Star Realtor Before choosing a real estate agent, Lisa and I conducted a lot of research to see who would be the best choice based on neighborhood listings and sales and how agents in our neighborhood promoted their listings. Chris Ellis with Shaheen, Ruth, Martin & Fonville was a clear choice for us. His social media presence was strong, and it was evident that Chris put a lot of work into his listings. We spoke with Chris and then met with him at our home. He answered our questions, provided us with objective data regarding sales in our area with as well as a detailed market analysis. Chris made the process of marketing/selling our home incredibly easy and took those extra steps regarding staging tips, having professional photographs taken and showing expectations. When we saw our listing photographs we were amazed. His hard work and knowledge of what it takes to sell a home really paid off - our listing looked incredible and knocked out the competition. We received multiple offers within days. Our house went under contract above asking price. It couldn't have been a more pleasant experience. We would recommend Chris without reservation. He's a true professional and a genuinely nice person. Selling your home is a stressful process, but I think you'd be hard pressed to find a better Realtor than Chris Ellis. A five star Realtor! - Jack and Lisa
Having worked with Chris in the past, we immediately knew who to call when it was time to sell our home in New Kent. It was late March when the pandemic was changing life as we knew it. Chris never wavered and took great care in showing our home to potential clients, always keeping us informed. The professional photos really captured what we loved about our home. To our delight and amazement, Chris sold our home within a week. We are so grateful to have developed such a trusting relationship and highly recommend Chris to others. Thanks Chris! - Teresa W. for Chris Ellis
