Elena Gist

After reading all of Elena’s raving reviews and seeing all the accolades she consistently wins, I figured it was too good to be true. After she helped me sell my home and buy a new home, all at the same time, I’ve realized she deserves even more recognition. Elena has a way of making you feel like you’re her one and only client. She is extremely diligent - always available day or night and she operates with great care, like it’s her own house that she’s selling or buying. She always has your back and makes the process go a lot smoother, all with a magnetic personality. Her knowledge of the industry is unparalleled, and her strategic thinking and execution, whether it’s for staging or during negotiations, helped me land better than imaginable deals. Also, her alliances are unmatched. She brings a team of amazing people that can assist in various areas, and that will also become lifelong connections. She quickly builds strong favor with other agents, a key hidden advantage in today’s market. It is clear that Elena is in a league of her own and has my vote as the best agent in Georgia. If you read this and don’t go with Elena, you’re always going to wonder whether you got the best deal.

"I’m convinced Elena Gist is one of the best real estate professionals in the state of Georgia. Her over 19 years of experience and extreme dedication made a huge difference when selling my home. Immediately after viewing my unit, Elena told me what minor and inexpensive upgrades would maximize my condo’s value. She also had the most professional and efficient contractors on standby to complete the work in less than a week. She even took it upon herself to bring in small staging items that added to my unit’s overall appeal. When I received several offers from prospective buyers; Elena reviewed each offer carefully, even catching red flags in a few of them that surely could have costed me time and money. My condo was under contract in less than three days with an offer that was well over asking price. Not only is Elena an amazing agent, she is also an all-around kind, down-to-earth and intelligent person. Her positive energy is infectious, and she knows how to find a balance between setting realistic expectations and maintaining an optimistic attitude for her clients. You can’t put a price on experience, and Elena is incredibly knowledgeable and intuitive when it comes to real estate. She puts her all into every client relationship and transaction. Because of Elena, selling my home was quick, stress free, and beyond seamless. If you value your time and your investment, please do yourself a favor and choose Elena to be your realtor."

If you're looking for one of the best Agents in the business, read on. I first began the process of buying a home in December of 2021, mostly because the state of the rental market at the moment and my aversion to signing another lease. I had no idea what I was doing and came in to the process mostly blind. I was referred to Elena through one of her partners, Henry Gonzalez. To say that my experience with Elena was incredible would be an understatement. She went so far above and beyond to explain things in simple terms to me and made sure I understood (I knew nothing about home ownership prior to this). She did everything in her power to make sure that my offers were as appealing as possible before we submitted any of them, and she kept me updated every single step of the way as we progressed through the volatile market. She worked through the weekends and kept in contact with me. There were times where I would call her stressed out at 10pm and she would answer, console me and make me feel like it was going to happen. I still can't believe the level of support and care she provides to her clients. Aside from all of this, she continues to help me out here and there even after I purchased the house - with things like handyman recommendations and interior design suggestions. Any time I text her, she answers. She feels more like a friend than an agent, and I know that is just the nature of how she runs things. She managed to get me closed on a home in under 45 days. The home I purchased checks every box on my list and I couldn't be happier. If you are wondering if you should use Elena and her team, the answer is a resounding "Yes!" - You will not look back"

"We had the best experience with Elena. She was outstanding and helped us find the perfect home. Elena provided excellent service by answering many of our questions and by making sure that we were ready for closing.

"Based on several excellent reviews we’ve chosen Elena as our agent and that was one of the best decisions we could make. She also guided us through the whole process of buying a house and gave us very helpful advice on each step of the process. We got the house we always wanted to buy, and we are really impressed with the professionalism of our agent."
