Bio
Commitment, open communication and deep-seated knowledge and experience are the pillars of success for Coldwell Banker agent Ellen Rude. She has an astute legal awareness (derived from 20-plus years as a paralegal and legal editor), which aids her in negotiating, advocating and breaking down contracts into understandable language. Actively listening to her clients’ needs and goals, Ellen develops creative solutions that help them reach their desired lifestyle and arbitrates effective pricing and marketing strategies. Add to that a positive, upbeat demeanor, and she rises to any challenge to deliver the best return on investment.
Ellen has 10 years of experience in the real estate industry, helping buyers and sellers in the Los Angeles region, primarily focusing on Marina del Rey, Santa Monica, Playa Vista and Venice. She helps real estate for high-end clientele, first-time home buyers and senior citizens (holding the Senior Real Estate Specialist (SRES®) designation). Additionally, as an owner of multiple properties and certified as Investment Property Specialist (IPS) from the California Association of REALTORS® (C.A.R), she is proficient in working with investors.
Ellen has been a resident of the West Los Angeles counties since 1979 and has in-depth knowledge of the changes and growth of the area. She keeps a close eye on the ever-evolving neighborhoods, offering invaluable insights into local amenities. She uses this information to target potential buyers or match clients with their ideal way of living. As a testament to her accomplished methods, Ellen is a member of the Coldwell Banker® International Diamond Society and Coldwell Banker International Sterling Society, which recognize agents in the top 12% and 18%, respectively.
Ellen is backed by the world-class marketing support and innovative technology of the Coldwell Banker brand, one of the most well-known and trusted names in real estate. She carefully analyzes and presents market statistics so her clients can make the most informed decisions. Additionally, using professional photography, Ellen creates an arsenal of marketing materials, including digital and print brochures, virtual tours, postcards and social media assets, and targets campaigns to reach the most likely buyer demographic.
When Ellen is not helping buyers and sellers, she enjoys spending time with her family (including being a grandmother) and paddle boarding, swimming, walking on the beach, and practicing yoga and Pilates.
Focused, discerning and insightful, Ellen would be more than happy to lead you along a seamless, positive real estate journey.
