“We sold a home in North Smithfield and Elise was the perfect choice for a realtor. She really knew the local area and guided us through the process very well. She was professional and extremely pleasant to work with. We would choose her again in a heartbeat!”

“Elise did an outstanding job selling our Executive home in North Smithfield, RI. Her knowledge and research of the local market was invaluable when establishing our listing price and strategy. Our home sold very quickly and within 1% of the asking price. She became completely knowledgeable of all of our home systems and highlighted the marketable intricacies of our home. Her commitment and follow through with marketing, scheduling open houses, private showings and system inspections was seamless and impressive. Her communication skills are top notch. She is a very hard worker and truly loves the process. You will not be disappointed when choosing Elise. I have worked with a few other realtors in my day, there is no comparison, Elise is the best. Highly Recommended!”

“Elise was great for us first time buyers! We didn't have much knowledge about the process and she was able to keep us up to date and informed! She made buying our first home an enjoyable experience, like it should be, even when its a crazy market! We wouldn't have been able to get our home without her help! We would definitely recommend Elise!”

“Elise Vetri was great in helping us get our house. She has a lot of experience and knows the ins and outs of real estate. She is very professional and was always there for us when we had questions or concerns. She was also very prompt with everything and we were never waiting on her. We couldn’t have asked for a better realtor and would highly recommend Elise to anyone looking for a reliable realtor.”

“Elise is great to work with, her years of experience show in her work ethic. She is easy to work with and truly works in the best interest of her clients. I highly recommend Elise for all your real-estate needs.”

“It’s sad that I have to write this review on someone I had previously considered a friend, when they say don’t do business with friends and family they mean it! Everything started off fine, pictures were taken and my house was listed for a fair price. Right now, with everything going on in the world houses are being bought and sold very quickly, this meant my house only needed to be shown on three separate days, very little work went into selling my home. My problems with Elise began with the fact that I was looking for a house outside of RI in either MA or CT, I preferred CT and Elise asked me to wait until she had her CT license and she could do both. I agreed, that was my first mistake. I looked online at Zillow and Reator.com for houses on my own, Elise did not set me up with an MLS listing so that available houses would come to my e-mail automatically. Every time I wanted to see a house she made sure to tell me how much of a pain it was to have to go, when I offered to simply attend on my own she stated it was illegal to look at houses without a realtor-it isn’t. There were several houses I liked that I didn’t even go see because of this, the last straw for me was a house that I wanted to see that was only being shown for one day and offers needed to be in by 5 PM. Elise complained about how it was unfair that other realtors would only show for a day, she advised she quote “did not have time” and sent another agent she works with to see it with me. The house was in CT which I preferred and a good fit for what I was looking for, I told the agent I was with I wanted to put in a bid (I had already made several for other houses that were rejected). She said she would let Elise know as even though she was showing me the house Elise wanted to write it up, it was submitted at 4:55 PM on a 5 PM deadline. I sent Elise a very nice and professional e-mail that night advising that though I appreciated her selling my house I was going to have a separate agent to help find me a house to buy since time was of the essence. Several times Elise had tried to convince me to close on my house, move in with family and then start looking for a house. An absolutely ridiculous suggestion, why would I pay to have my things in storage-pay movers several times and then move myself and my dog in with family? Once I sent the e-mail, which Elise didn’t even bother to respond to (not a text, e-mail or phone call) she only contacted me when SHE needed something. I then contacted Diane White of CR Premier Properties who was the agent on the last house I had seen, it was like night and day. Diane attended to my every need, the very first house I looked at with her that I loved she helped me secure my lender and put in a bid. This was all done “after hours”. We saw the house at 5PM, put in a bid by 7PM and had a yes by 9:45 PM the same day and without going over the asking price. I then still had the stressful task of closing on both houses, Elise advised the appraiser for my house was coming at 1PM and I needed to be out so they could take pictures-they showed up at 11AM and advised it was fine if I stayed (a five-minute process). The Fire Marshall came (a $30 charge I paid for) and advised my smoke detectors were too old and he would need to come back-Elise said they would be fine. My sister who lives across the street from me and is also moving used Robert Slocum located in Warwick and he not only put in the smoke detectors for her but also gave her a check for the $30. It doesn’t end there, when I mentioned to Elise my concern about how do I have my stuff gone from my house before I could move to the new house-she’s MIA. I had to google it and found out I didn’t have to be at the closing for the house I was selling and could give my attorney a POA to sign for me, while signing the documents with him he asks me about the commission price and I find out Elise charged me more that agreed upon. Unbelievable. I'm assuming my house closed as I never heard from Elise again. I hope the 10K she made on the sale of my home was worth it to her. Andrea VanWormer”
