I am an investor that has bought many homes. Phillis is probably the best realtor I have used. She is knowledgeable, prompt, professional and low pressure. I really felt she put our best interest above all else. She was especially knowledgeable about waterfront property regulations, septic issues, and erosion concerns. She was also just very pleasant to work with.

Phyllis has been amazing throughout the entire process! She was extremely helpful and answered the many questions was had as first time home buyers. She definitely does her homework on homes before meeting you for a tour and just overall has an abundance of knowledge on the process/homes in general. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home!

Phyllis is not only a great realtor she has become a friend. She was always looking out for US and not just wanting to make a sale. She was universally available in showing us homes over a 6 month period and never pressured us to buy anything. Paperwork was taken care of without issue on multiple offers. We are now moving into our dream home, with the only regret being that we won't be able to tour homes with Phyllis any longer.
Ms. Elsner has been outstanding from start to finish. She made me very knowledgeable about how the market works. She was always available if I had any concerns or questions. We formed a good bond. I truly think her and if I was to buy another home, I surely will give her a ring. Thank you again Ms. Phyllis.

She is a nice person and very friendly, very patient and understanding, helpful and knowledgeable of what she is doing we are happy to have her as our Agent
Phyllis was a real find... just like the house she just helped us purchase! The house was listed by Redfin. After the open house we used the Redfin app to contact an agent and were matched with Phyllis. It was a perfect match since she was super knowledgable about waterfront properties and Calvert County in general. She provided an impressive CMA and expert guidance through the entire purchase process. We look forward to seeing her again when we take occupancy of the house and would DEFINITELY work with her again without question. Thanks Phyllis!
Amazing customer service, response time, and thoroughness.
The best realtor on the eastern shore and southern Maryland 😎
Phyllis was our benevolent guide in our home-buying journey. She helped us navigate a rather difficult market and a failed contract but, ultimately, we found our perfect home. All thanks to Phyllis!

Aside from professional, Phyllis is patient, compassionate, and thoughtful. She provided support at every step of the home-buying process, which, for an inexperienced homebuyer, can be overwhelming. She was also consistently available by phone and email to provide a quick response to questions, advice on various concerns, and encouragement when needed. Phyllis puts considerable effort into her work, but, more importantly, she puts considerable effort into her relationships with her clients, getting to know them, understanding what they need, and following through with helping them achieve their goals. I would highly recommend her.

We highly recommend Phyllis. As first time home buyers she was very attentive and informative. She answered all of our questions throughout the process and we learned a lot from her as well. She paid close attention to what type of home we were looking for and the area as well. She stuck it out with us even when we were feeling discouraged during the summer. We feel lucky to have had her as our agent.

Phyllis was fantastic. She was incredibly responsive when we reached out, and went the extra mile for us by calling the local government and our inspection company to advocate on our behalf. During the inspection and closing, she asked questions we wouldn't have thought to ask. We couldn't have asked for a better representative of our interests. Thank you, Phyllis!

Phyllis is the best agent I have ever met so far, and I have seen probably more than 50 houses in different areas and made offers on 2-3. I met Phyllis on a house tour with Redfin. She is so knowledgeable on the local market, and gave me a lot of good advice on the condition and structure of the houses. Every time when I toured with her, she was so prepared that she would print out the house information and handed it to me. She would even introduce the neighborhood to me, like where is the closet park, where to do groceries and where are the best schools are. I couldn't think of anything else she could do better, she is just the best! I made an offer on one of the houses we toured, but was not happy about the inspection result. Phyllis helped me analyze the situation, and negotiated... Show More

I cannot express how grateful we are to have had Phyllis as our Agent. She is kind, patient, knowledgeable and an all around wonderful person. At no point did we ever feel we were alone through this process. Phyllis ensured that our stress levels remained low and graciously guided us through the ends and outs of each home we looked at. Her recommendations were on par for what we wanted in a home and because of her leadership through the process

Phyllis was with us every day in this journey, from the first house tour providing clear facts and figures, guiding the offer creation and financing issues, to the closing just one month later, helping us through final inspection and ensuring settlement went smooth. We had never met her before that first house tour. We miss her already as homeowners!

Phyllis- is amazing. From start to finish she was so kind, communicative and informed. She helped make the entire process of buying a joy and we'd definitely recommend her!
Words cannot capture how great Phyllis was to work with. I looked at houses at odd times of the day and when there was snow and ice on the ground but Phyllis was always just as insightful and happy. When I locked onto the area I wanted to move into, Phyllis made sure I knew of every listing that was on the market. Phyllis went above and beyond with looking into items and features I had questions about as well as the community I was interested in. Given the market and how quickly homes moved, she worked with me to make sure a competitive offer was made on the home I couldn't see slip away. Will and would recommend her to anyone. Never slow to get back to me and ALWAYS kept me in the loop. A gem if there ever was one.
