Why Work With Us?
Here's what our satisfied customers are saying about us:
My husband and I chose Elaine McDonald because of the recommendation of a trusted friend who had used
Elaine. Our first impression of Elaine was that she was warm, customer friendly and professional at the
same time. She quickly understood our needs and expectations. She was very well organized and efficient.
Outstanding in every way! Will definitely recommend Elaine to other potential sellers. Have already been
telling friends and family what a positive experience we've had!
10 out of 10!
The progress/timing on sale of house was amazing. We first met with Elaine on a Friday morning when she
explain her services, etc. and did a walk thru of our house making suggestions for selling. The following
Tuesday she came to see what progress we had made getting the house ready for sale. The next day -
Wednesday - Elaine came to stage house and have the photos/video done. Then the next day - Thursday the
house went on MLS listing. Next day - on Friday there was an excellent offer on the house. Also, Elaine
has a wonderful "village" of people she recommends to assist the buyer - attorney, moving company, haul
away "junk" company, etc. Overall I would rate the whole experience as a 10 out of 10!
See previous comments commending those people. Also, Elaine's immediate office staff was great. Very
positive experience.

Maureen Bobe - Seller
Elaine came highly regarded from family. Elaine's knowledge of the local area's real estate market is second to none. Her attention to detail while viewing houses is truly appreciated. The Elaine McDonald team is excellent, they are very accommodating and attentive. Elaine is very easy to work with. We took a very long time to purchase a home and viewed many homes over that time and Elaine was nothing but patient, understanding and professional. Being first time homebuyers the process can be a bit intimidating but Elaine made the process so much better.
Chris Bolte - Buyer
Elaine and her team helped us to the successful purchase of our dream house - a lake house! We are very grateful to team up with her and the excellent support team. She is very professional, hard working and patient to guide us through this process. And we won at the end!

We can't say enough about how much it means to work with Elaine and her team. We both work full-time with lots of extended hours. Knowing that they are handling all the details behind the scenes, using the latest technology, plus their overall experience. Made it so much easier handling the whole process. - Ken Calder
The Elaine McDonald Team is great to work with - very knowledgeable of the area and the industry. Great recommendations to assist in buying and selling. Our fourth transaction over the past 20 years (bought and sold twice now) and each service is done with great respect and professionalism. - Brenda Calder

Ken and Brenda Calder - Sellers / Buyers
Elaine & Doug and their team were amazing to work with. They took care of everything, they offered sound advice and once we had a signed purchase and sale, my husband and I didn't have to do a thing! They took care of coordinating the appraisal, the inspection, communicating with our attorney throughout, the fire inspection and our final water and sewer bill. It was a very stress free transaction. They are incredibly kind, take the time to really listen to your needs and so incredibly knowledgeable about the market. Highly recommend!

Molly Nesbitt - Seller
Elaine McDonald went above and beyond to help sell our home. She was available at any time of the day and night. She understood the market, accepted that we did no, and directed us towards making the best decisions. She was clear and communicative. She went above and beyond anything we expected from her. We are very satisfied. We would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a home in the area.

Father Dimitrios Moraitis - Seller
Elaine is a great listener with a keen sense of intuition. She uses what she learns about a client to tailor plans, decisions, and interactions to fit what's important to them. It's a subtle, but valuable talent for the complex process of selling/buying a home. Great person, great staff, great agent!

Jeanine Taylor - Seller
Elaine sold our previous home years ago. We had an excellent experience then, selling our home and buying our new home. So, when it came for us to retire, we decided to sell our home and move to Florida. We did not even think twice about Elaine being our agent again! She sold our home in one day with 3 bids over asking price!!! Elaine and her team are very knowledgeable and great to work with! I highly recommend!!!

Nancy Kadlik - Seller
Elaine McDonald and her team were awesome to deal with! We would use her again in a heart beat! She and her team always conducted themselves with the utmost professionalism and were very knowledgeable of the process. They were always very responsive to our questions and easy to get a hold of. Elaine and her whole team's friendly and understanding demeanor helped in the communication with our tenants during the sales process to make them feel at ease during the transition. We not only felt that we had a great realtor protecting our interests but we had a friend who had our back.
