In the fall of 2022, my wife's aunt passed away. My wife and her sister immediately became the executors of the estate. Their aunt's house was found worn down and in a disarray. We live six hours away and really needed a good realtor to assist us in selling the house. We researched "Realtor.com" and found Elle Powell. We checked the reviews which were outstanding. I called Elle and explained our delima. Elle was very knowledgeable and had experience with estate sales. We met with Elle at the Merlin house. Elle had already did her homework and knew the area well. Elle was very professional and polite. She went in detail about the selling process. The house needed a lot of work before it go on the market. Elle was amazing and had a reliable cleaning crew and landscaper come to the house. These folks did an outstanding job and made the house presentable. The house also needed a few fixes to bring it up to code. Again, Elle assisted with the process and had a reliable contractor fix the required repairs. Elle later had the house photographed and did an amazing job marketing the house. During the process, Elle would send us weekly reports. She would also call or text us. We live six hours away from the house so this constant update reassured us that we picked the right realtor. I can go on and on but this house was a struggle. It needed so many repairs and updating. But having Elle by our side took the worry and stress away. Elle's professionalism and dedication to excellence paid off. She worked very hard to find the right buyer. It was amazing to work with someone with such an outstanding work ethic. We can't thank Elle Powell enough. read more

In January of 2014, we found out we would be relocated from So Cal to Southern Oregon. In April, we started working with Elle long distance. We visited a total of four times during our home buying process and each time spent days touring homes with Elle. We always had our kids with us and Elle brought snacks and drinks for them on those long days. But that does not even begin to count the hours she spent working for us. Since we were so far away, I would see a home online and ask Elle to visit. She always did, within 24 hours, and sent me extensive pictures. She answered my texts day and night. When we finally found our home (in July 2014) we entered into escrow knowing we would be relying on her once again since we were so far away. She recommended an inspector and helped us navigate our escrow and even collected our keys on the day we closed. She then checked the home periodically until we moved up two months later. It was amazing service. And even though I felt like we had to be her only clients based on how much time and attention she gave us, we weren't. We now refer to her as "our realtor". read more

Buying a house sight unseen was not something I ever thought I would do. However, we were moving from out of state and the market in Southern Oregon was moving very fast and we were running out of time since our house was in escrow. We found a house we loved on a Friday. After a couple days of looking at it online, we knew we needed to get more info. On that Sunday morning, I found Elle through Yelp. I texted her and she immediately responded. By the end of Sunday, I was preapproved with one of her lenders and she had scheduled a meeting to give us a virtual tour of the house the very next next day. By the end of Monday we made an offer and by the end of the week were in contract. Elle was a great negotiator, extremely responsive and helpful in every single way. It was stressful enough to make such a big move, but Elle made it a fairly seamless process. I cannot recommend Elle enough. I felt she was always 100% in our corner and we knew we were in great hands. We have now been in our house about 3 months and still could not be happier with our decision. read more

I am a retired 70 year old and my wife and I are looking to move from the coast. We are kind of crazy, quirky older people and our sense of humor is offbeat, to say the least. Elle gets us. She spent over 6 months working with us and our not always agreeing on what we wanted in a house. Elle never got frustrated and kept plugging away with us. we ended up buying a place we diced, three weeks later, we dont like anymore. Elle didn't get frustrated. She tried to talk us into actually moving in, but we dont want to. Instead of getting frustrated or upset, she has agreed to continue working with us. Having been in commercial and multi residential real estate for 30 years, I have worked with numerous realtors. I only wish I had met Elle back then as I would have had her handle all my transactions in 11 different states. Cool, calm, collected, knowledgeable, savvy, sharp, hard worker, knows her craft, knows the valley. If you are serious about buying or selling, I could not recommend a better realtor. M. L.

There aren't enough great things to say about Elle!! A little background, we were relocating to the Medford area from Northern Oregon and were in the process of selling our house up north and buying in Southern Oregon. We had started with a different realtor that we had issues with from the beginning...then we were introduced to Elle and it was a perfect match! She is eager, a go-getter, highly communicative, and will always give you an honest opinion. She is straight and to the point and goes above and beyond for her clients. We were forced to cram all of our house hunting into two weekends due to our work schedules and she made sure we were taken care of every step of the way! We got into a house we love smoothly and in less than 1 month from our offer date. We can't recommend her enough!! You will not regret using her for your house buying or selling! We will never go to anyone else for real estate!! Thank you for everything! read more

My husband and I live in West Virginia and needed to sell a house in Oregon. Our son lived in the home and he was moving back east to be closer to family. Elle came to view the house and after meeting her, we didn't look any further. Our son left Oregon and Elle took over. She helped find us a contractor, a painter, a roofer, a landscaper, a locksmith, and even someone for us to contact to take the pet that couldn't make the long trip back. She supervised and organized all the remodeling and clean up needed to put the house in perfect condition for listing. In just six months, and through a pandemic, the home sold and at a great price. We couldn't have done it without her! If you're looking for a top notch, friendly, hard working, and considerate real estate agent to work with, Elle's your best choice. We were very happy with our experience and highly recommend her to anyone needing to buy or sell a home. read more

We were first-time home buyers and she made it easy. We couldn't have done it without her. I don't know if it would have been as successful if we were dealing with anyone else. We ended up pursuing a house that was being sold from a notoriously difficult sellers. Elle was always honest with the outcomes and provided great insight on the best way to proceed based upon our goals. We were set on the house and Elle made it happen. We are very happy. Her top quality is how responsive she is. I don't know how she juggles everything so well. She never left us hanging and was often checking on us to make sure everything was getting done on time and without difficulty. Even after the sell, she has checked up on us to see how things are going. She really made us feel like we were important to her. read more

We met Elle through touring open houses. We immediately felt comfortable with her personable character and called her when we saw houses we were interested in. Elle is honest and doesn't try to hide any of the possibly negative qualities of a house, such as road noise. She is also extremely observant and remembered details houses when we were talking about them at a later. We particularly liked that Elle pursued getting us showings of houses we expressed interest in, even on the same day. Elle has fantastic contacts throughout the area, and knows the Rogue Valley extremely well as she serves on committees which give her insight into future building plans. If you want an honest, committed partner in finding your next home, we highly recommend Elle! read more

If I could give Elle Powell a million star review I would. Elle has been amazing in our adventures of finding a home for our family. Everything that could go wrong has definitely gone wrong (nothing to do with Elle). She has been on top of everything from the start and has helped and encouraged us to keep our heads up and to just breathe because it was going to happen, it was just a matter of timing. We would have given up on this first time home buying experience if it was not for her and her alone. If you are looking for someone who will fight for you and make your home buying dream become a reality then look no further Elle is your realtor! I cannot thank her enough for every hoop she helped us through. Thank you Elle you truly are the best! read more

Elle (whom I found on yelp) was recently my purchasing agent for an upcoming move to the Medford area from out of state. Not only was Elle readily available for any of my questions/concerns, she also went out of her way to meet with my relatives to handle things for me remotely. Elle worked vigorously and without complaint throughout the entire purchase process. She took numerous trips around Jackson County viewing properties for me and sending me countless videos and photos to make sure I really got an accurate idea of the property. I will definitely use Elle again in the future and I highly recommend her to anyone either purchasing or selling. She is highly knowledgeable and a great asset to either end. read more

After trying to sell our house for two summers we gave up. Until we got a phone call from Ben Ditzler and Elle Powell in the fall of 2015. They convinced us that trying to sell our home in the winter might be a good idea. Living in the snow zone at 5,000' we had our doubts but thought, why not. So we listed with Elle Powell and with the assistance of Ben Ditzler they showed our house so much that I was getting tired of cleaning it. Way more than the previous two realtors put together. We ended up getting three offers and sold our home before the listing was up. Putting our home into the ambitious hands of Elle Powell and Ben Ditzler was a winning combination! So should you! read more

I would highly recommend Elle to anyone looking for a home in the Rogue Valley. She is very knowledgeable about the area, as well as important structural details of the homes. She pays attention to what her clients are looking for and doesn't waste the client's time dragging them to homes that would not be a good fit. She was readily available (even at the break of dawn) to help me find my dream home. She made the process very simple and efficient. It is always stressful purchasing a home, but I am very thankful that Elle was able to go above and beyond to assist during the whole process. read more

I'm an out of state buyer, so really needed a realtor that "knew" the Valley and could guide me in multiple ways. We ended up buying a 4 plex that needed work, every time I needed a contact, Elle "had a guy". Carpenter, check, Painter, check, Plumber, check, Lawyer, check...given we had a new surprise at every turn with this property it was comforting to have expertise that not only knew how to buy the property, but knew how to get it up and running so I could start getting an ROI on my investment. If you're looking for a realtor in Southern Oregon, Elle's the place to go! read more

We purchased a home in the Rogue Vally through Elle and were pleased with very aspect of the service she provided. We spent only two days in the area and felt confident that Elle understood our taste and priorities and guided us to the right community and the right house. The purchase was carried out long distance and she facilitated all aspects of the transaction. Elle kept us informed, was responsive, and made the experience stress free. She also has a delightful personality and we enjoyed spending time together. read more

Elle did an absolutely marvelous job getting us all set up to sell the property. Did a great job during the escrow phase. We all had a lot to deal with. She was very helpful getting things solved and scheduled, plus so much more. I cannot say enough about her class A performance... she did an absolutely marvelous job. Highly recommend her to represent you. ........ loved the little property for sale sign at the end of our street, which was a perfect example of the extra mile effort. Thanks Elle read more

Elle was wonderful to work with. Very professional and knowledgeable about the processes involved in selling a home. We had multiple offers and our home went for over asking in 2 days. This is the 4th time my husband and I have sold a house and none went as smoothly as this one. Her communications with us was top-notch and she explained things we did not quite understand patiently. It was a real pleasure working with Elle and I recommend her highly to anyone wanting a smooth selling process. read more

Elle is a real pleasure to work with. She not only knows her business inside and out, she offers great insights and guidance along the way. We were very pleased the way she handled the showing of our home: being on-hand to point out the custom touches and answering questions, then allowing space for the potential buyers to be comfortable while they looked around. Elle is a top professional in her field - a real treasure, and we would highly recommend her! read more

Elle stuck with us for almost two years! We had a very unusual Home that took a special buyer. A lot of ups And downs for many reasons! She Found that buyer!

She is still there for me and I have moved to another city, what an amazing gal!!! Thank you Elle!! read more
