“Elaine is a phenomenal realtor who works extremely hard for you, whether you’re a buyer or a seller. We happened to be both! She recently helped us sell our Carlsbad home for a record setting price per sq ft through her expert negotiating skills and sales strategies in today’s crazy real estate world. She was diplomatic, but assertive, with those who submitted written offers, helping us get what we needed and wanted from our sale and more! Then, after a very smooth and quick closing, she also assisted us with buying a home in the local area, again through sheer determination, skillful negotiating tactics, and lots of behind the scenes research to help us create a win-win situation for us and the sellers. We cannot sing her praises highly enough — she deserves an Olympic “gold medal” for all she helped us accomplish in less than thirty days’ time! We highly recommend Elaine to anyone seeking top notch service and quick results. She’s the best!!!”
~Linda M.
“Elaine was amazing. We met her at an open house. She asked us what we were looking for and if we were working with an agent. We told her what we wanted and we were not working with anyone and we were just looking around and not really ready to buy. She said, “I’m now your agent.” She showed us a couple of places and the third visit was exactly what we were looking for. Elaine negotiated our deal in a very professional manner. The sellers brought-up some issues we weren’t expecting and Elaine took care of making sure they kept to the original deal and kept everything no nonsense. We were in the home in Carmel Valley within two months. Paid a reasonable price and thanks to Elaine we got in at a great time for buyers and we’ve watched our home value increase 500%.”
~ G. Barillas
“Experience makes a huge difference in residential real estate. Elaine shined in the sale of our home by bidding up the price to make us more money. She was in our corner all the way. I cannot say enough good things about working with Elaine.”

She did a masterful job marketing my SD condo using all available media combined with frequent open houses. All transactions were on-line and most efficient. Many showings occurred during the sales evolution. I have known Elaine for over 25 years – her professional integrity is widely known. She is also a super friend and fellow Irishman. Her staff was also most professional.”

“I want to express my deepest appreciation to Elaine and her entire team to get my house sold at Cielo, Rancho Santa Fe.
I work in China and away for months at a time. There was no help that I can rely on other than handing it over to Elaine’s team. They jumped in and took over, arranged an entourage of people to maintain my house nicely and helped with tons of little things that got the house sold.
Not only did they spend time to prepare my house, they also worked hard on the clients side. They provided great help to obtain financing for the buyers. It was a long strenuous process, but the team stuck together, worked hard and got the job done!
My house couldn’t have fallen in better hands. The house couldn’t have been sold without the strong commitment from Elaine Gallagher. They are my first choice in buying or selling properties in San Diego!”

In less than ten days Elaine produce at least 8 to 10 qualified buyers, with three submitting offers at or near our asking price.
I highly recommend that if you have a luxury property you want to sell that you consider Elaine Gallagher.”
