★★★★★
"Elinor is extremely good at listening to our needs and took the time to research and explain details about HOA's for a investment condo. It was a smooth transaction and when we closed she was so sweet and got my daughter a house warming gift. She cares and wanted to ensure we were well taken care of. We would highly recommend her, you would be in good hands." - Margaret and Alissa

★★★★★
"Elinor was our realtor as we searched for our first home in this tight market. She took the time to explain the whole house buying process and always accommodated her schedule to ours. Ultimately, Elinor found us a house that we absolutely adore within our budget. I would recommend her to anyone!" - Nicole

★★★★★
"Elinor was a pleasure to work with. My budget was tight and she was still able to show me several great properties. She was able to help me buy my first condo in a really tough market, which I am very grateful for. I definitely trust and recommend her to anyone in the Seattle/Tacoma area!" - Lindsay

★★★★★
"We were looking for a house in the Tacoma area. Ellie took us out everyday for a week until we found the house of our dreams. Now i know she works in Seattle, but she was always there in the Tacoma area to show us homes. Once we found our house she explained how we needed to proceed. She made it very easy to go through the process, and was there every step of the way. Also she worked diligently for us by getting the seller to pay all the closing cost.Ellie was pleasure to work with, and I highly recommend her for anyone looking for the house of their dreams." - Bob

★★★★★
" Purchased and sold 5 houses with Elinor and Jessica. Exceptionally helpful with a good network of other professional contacts for reference to assist when buying or selling a home." - Townhome Seller Closed Jan '21

★★★★★
" In the last three years, we have bought and sold with Elinor and her daughter Jessica (The Dofredo Team). Both experiences vastly exceeded our expectations. Elinor is warm, experienced, and well-networked. Regardless of the situation or question--and we threw quite a few curveballs--she was unfazed, knowledgeable, and often already in the process of taking care of it. Elinor knows the market, the players, and the best ways to advocate for her clients. Jessica is her perfect complement--clearly well-versed in the world of real estate, but with a youthful perspective and artistic outlook. Her presentation of our house was so gorgeous we almost reconsidered selling it! The only disappointment for us was that, now that our home purchase is complete, we no longer get to spend several afternoons a week in their delightful company!" - House Buyer Closed Nov '20

★★★★★
"The Dofredo Team has helped me prepare and sell two homes, one on the bay and one on a lake. They are an incredible, hands-on team! They have very good contacts to come in if needed to clean, repair, stage, appraise, and assist. They know the most reasonable outlet stores to obtain materials to prep the properties for sale, and also the best methods for advertising and getting the word out nationally and internationally. " - Catherine Sangster

★★★★★
" Excellent team great at building rapport throughout the entire transaction on sale side. Also great at sourcing deals on the buying side and always reliable+willing to invest their time and energy. I’ve worked with Elinor and Jessica for 5+years and would highly recommend! " - House Seller Closed May '20

★★★★★
"Elinor is super helpful. I was tempted by a deal, and she caught the legal loophole in this transaction before it happened. Saved me a lot of headache. She has a lot of integrity and she clearly cares for people. I highly recommend her." - Wen

Elinor's Experience & Passion - serving you since 2001

Real Estate is truly my passion and joy. Ever since hearing the story of how my mom knocked on many neighbors’ doors to purchase our first home in the Beacon Hill neighborhood of Seattle, I have always been inspired to navigate the vast world of Real Estate and bring this understanding to others (education is also one of my passions).

Born and raised in Seattle, I consider myself an expert of this great city and it’s surrounding areas, even with the vastly changing landscapes. Since starting my Real Estate career in 2001, I have accumulated a wide spectrum of unique knowledge and skills - from the technicalities of septic tanks and oil tanks, the complexities of land use and development, to the creativity of interior design and staging. I love learning hands-on and expanding my expertise in all areas!

My love of Real Estate is perfectly complimented by my experiences in Business and Education. Starting at the age of 10, I helped with my mom's jewelry business at the Pike Place Market. We would also travel to fairs and festivals, which were such fun adventures. Eventually, I made my own mark at the Pike Place Market owning and running a small card & gift shop called Paper Moon in the Stewart Building (near the original Starbucks). In regards to Education, I earned my AA in Early Childhood Education and was blessed to be an educator for 11 years.

Outside of Real Estate, I enjoy golfing, spending time with my growing family, giving back to the community, and have served philanthropically Seattle International Rotary, on the board of Kids Co and committees for St. George Parish and St. George Parish School. Some of my ongoing charitable contributions include the Windermere Foundation, Kids Co (Evergreen Children’s Association), Treehouse for Kids, St. Vincent de Paul, and the South Seattle Catholic Schools & Parishes (St. George, St. Paul, St. Edward, St. Peter).

I am a REALTOR (Washington Association of Realtors and the Seattle/King County Association of Realtors), as well as a Certified Negotiation Expert (CNE), Senior Real Estate Specialist (SRES), and an Accredited Staging Professional (ASP-RE).
