“Negotiated an unbelievable deal for us due to her strong personal connections in the community.”

Our experience with Darlene was top notch, start to finish. We had been looking for several months but couldn't find a good property match because the market was really high. Out of the blue, Darlene called us and said, "I have the perfect house for you!" She was right. Within 24 hours we had met our dream home and put in an offer. Darlene was able to negotiate an unbelievable deal for us due to her strong personal connections in the community. We felt deeply cared for during the process of purchasing our first home, and I recommend Darlene and her team without reservation to anyone looking to buy or sell. Hands down, she is the best in the area.

“Made the whole process a wonderful experience!”

This isn't the first time my husband and I have worked with Darlene and although we hope to be in our forever home now, we highly recommend working with her. She showed us house after house and was never frustrated. We love Darlene's candor, she is open and honest which is key while trying to sell or buy your forever home which can be a truly stressful time in your life. She made the whole process from start to finish a wonderful experience. Darlene acts with integrity and is supportive and encouraging but NEVER pushy. If we had questions she answered them right away, or did the research to get us an answer in a timely manner. We have recommended her to many friends and friends since we started with her, because we wanted to, not because we felt we had to.

“Worked hard to find listings that suited my needs.”

Darlene Colwell-Ellis recently assisted me in searching for and purchasing a home. Darlene worked hard to find listings that suited my needs, schedule showings at my convenience and answer any questions I had about the property in a timely manner. She was professional, courteous and pleasant, and provided her advice without pushing me or telling me what to do. I would recommend Darlene to anyone buying, selling or renting a home. She is knowledgeable, fair and will do whatever it takes to meet her clients' needs.

“Cared deeply about us and our outcomes.”

"Our company, Kittery Point Realty Partners, has purchased and sold five properties in Dover and Rochester with Darlene and she also sold a vacation for me in Kittery. Insofar as the investment properties were concerned, some were bought so that we could subdivide the land, others were bought to be fixed up and sold and still others were bought to be rented (Darlene also handled the rentals) for income. In all cases, the properties were terrific investments for us and Darlene was instrumental in their success. She behaved like a true partner to us. With regard to my $1 million vacation home, she was equally terrific. She baked cookies at the house before showings so that the house smelled more homey and inviting and really went above and beyond in helping us get a sale to a very difficult buyer closed. What started out as a business relationship that we entered into based upon her sales volume turned into a partner-like relationship in every respect because she always acted like it was her money at risk or her sale that needed to happened. She cared deeply about us and our outcomes. At this point, she's someone we consider part of our family."

"Process was seamless."

We had lived in our home for 48 years, so selling was very emotional for us. Thanks to Darlene and her team, the process was seamless. She was very professional and helped us every step of the way. We are now settled in a new home and are happy with the purchase. Thanks, Darlene!

My business partner and I have been using Darlene to assist with the purchase and sale of many properties since the early 1990’s.  Whether it’s a single family home or a 40 unit complex she always takes the steps needed to make sure that the sale and transfer of property is a seamless operation.  There is no doubt that she cares about her clients best interests.

"We couldn't have asked for better!"

The service and personal attention we receive from Darlene Colwell-Ellis was exceptional! She has a truly high-caliber team. Their knowledge of the local market and their key contacts in the community helped us in our search for investment property.  Darlene is easy-going, fun person to work with. She's extremely attentive, and offered sound advice during the entire process. We couldn’t be happier with our investment or with the service we have received over the last four+ years. We would certainly recommend Darlene and her team to others.
