"I am an executive assistant writing this review on behalf of my Principal, an UHNW real estate investor and business owner. She works closely with Ellie for the majority of her home purchasing needs throughout the Bay Area. Ellie breathes new life into the real estate industry, which is in desperate need of professionals like her— knowledgeable about the home-buying process and equipped with a vast network of trustworthy and honest vendors. Even months after the home-buying process, Ellie continues to devote her time to her us, ensuring we are comfortable and well-informed, with full transparency, when making updates to our homes. We could not recommend Ellie Ridge more highly, both as a realtor and as a genuinely wonderful person."

"We're so lucky to have had Ellie as our realtor. She took time to educate us as first time home buyers/owners. It was such a relief to know whatever home we were bidding on, we would understand the construction and maintenance issues we were walking into. We had interviewed other realtors and it was clear that Ellie works hard to find you the right home vs pressure you to buy as quickly as possible like other realtors who churn through clients. She gives an honest evaluation of homes and will recommend you walk away from some because of its condition. She was our emotional support realtor 🥺 Buying a home in the Bay Area is stressful! She helped us process the experience at every step making sure as a team, we were all aligned."

"Ellie represented me as a first time home buyer and was so knowledgeable, helpful, and efficient throughout the entire process. Every question I had was met with an enthusiastic and thoughtful answer, every anxiety I had was quelled by her kind demeanor. Beyond the home buying process, she is truly knowledgeable in both the constructions of homes and neighborhoods within the East Bay and what to look for while buying, helping me make an informed purchase which I’m incredibly happy with. I loved working with Ellie and will be recommending her to all my friends. Thank you!"

"Cannot praise Ellie enough! Ellie helped me and my family find and secure an amazing home with solid and consistent communication and insider guidance all along. I spoke with three different realtors before choosing Ellie because of her expertise, impressive knowledge of structures, and professional connections with local lenders. She recommended a local lender and buying approaches that gave us an edge in a pretty tough market. She was also incredibly patient and kind with the endless questions we inevitably had as first time home buyers. At the end of the day, it was so valuable to have a realtor I could trust in our corner! You can really tell that this is her passion. I cannot imagine buying/selling without her. She fought for us, laughed with us, and made the process smooth and consistent. Thank you so much, Ellie!"

She is extremely knowledgeable in the local neighborhoods and home structures.

I truly can’t say enough good things about Ellie and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a home!"

"Ellie is such a talented and driven realtor. Having a father who is a contractor and a mother who is a top-producing realtor, Ellie has had years of exposure and practice, studying Bay Area houses and the housing market. Understanding the urgency and competitive reality of the East Bay market, Ellie doesn’t miss a beat. Ellie really pays attention to what her clients are looking for and will proactively keep watch; Ellie is extremely tech savvy and will shoot you a text with a listing (and say, “I think this would be a great fit let’s go check it out!"). Ellie really hustles! She didn’t hesitate when we asked her to show us a house on a Saturday evening on extremely short notice. Needless to say, we put in an offer on that house, and our offer was accepted! We are so impressed with Ellie’s knowledge and work ethic. We are so grateful for Ellie!"
