Meet Ellie
Ellie Ridge hails from Albany, California, where she was born and raised, and attended the nearby University of California, Berkeley. After graduating, Ellie began a career in tech where she worked on business products at Meta. This initial career path helped shape her creative and strategic mind, honing her fascination with consumer behavior and market trends.
Eventually becoming disenchanted with tech, she turned to a career that was hiding in plan sight – real estate, to work beside her top-producing agent mother, and incorporating her interest in design, negotiation, and structures into her daily work.
Ellie’s family background is in construction, and her deep knowledge of building methodology, home systems, and structural health, as well as her penchant for distilling these complex concepts into comprehensive education for her clients, has allowed her career to skyrocket. She quickly rose as a top producer, winning local awards and entering the Top 50 of Inner East Bay Area agents within her second year as a realtor.
With her unusual knowledge set, and innovative style, Ellie's practice as an agent is unique – elevating education, highlighting structural health, and operating with a high level of due diligence, deeply preparing buyers for stewardship of their new home. In her time as an agent, she has built a community of 250,000+ followers on social media, where she shares in-depth information about houses and real estate. This expertise, attention to detail, and market savvy is the bedrock of her award-winning practice.
