Meet Sochi

My role as an agent is about more than just representing buyers, sellers, tenants and landlords. I am a guide through major transitions and do my work from a place of integrity, expertise, wisdom and centeredness. I create a sense of safety and calm in a situation that can be challenging and sometimes emotional and collaborate with clients to reach their goals with as much ease as possible.

Philadelphia is made of countless rich and diverse layers. I take pride in calling it home and understanding all the beautiful nuance. I’m a rooted resident in this city, where I have lived most of my life. I live in Mt. Airy, but work across the city and love each neighbourhood for their own unique aspects. 

Before becoming a realtor, I worked as a bartender, yoga instructor, gardener, horseback tour guide and even a brief stint as a telephone psychic. While each of these helped prepare me for this work in different ways, direct activism with mental health support groups set me up with the skills necessary to be successful in this work: de-stressing situations, clearly communicating, listening properly and negotiating with confidence for my clients.

I am creative and bring my imaginative spirit to everything I do. When I am not working, you will likely find me enjoying nature with my family and friends, practicing earth honoring traditions in a circle of magical people, tending the hearth or hording house plants.

I would love to work together to realize your real estate intentions!

"Elsa was truly great to work with! I was working with someone else before, and I was always tense and nervous. Despite that person's knowledge expertise, there was no trust. When I switched to Elsa, it was great. I felt right at ease, trusted her suggestions, and enjoyed working with her. Elsa went above and beyond and went to my house to check on things and made sure everything was okay. She also gave me good advice on what price to list my house and helped me negotiate upon receiving multiple offers. She is knowledgable and caring and helped me stand my ground and not give concessions to the buyer when I didn't need to but probably would have in that tense moment. I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home."

JC - Home Seller

"Elsa is awesome! We were looking passively for a potential property to set up as a rental. Out of the blue we found a place we loved. Turned out they were taking offers in three days, so we had to move quickly! Elsa quickly set up a report with the listing agent and got good insights into what would make the offer compelling. Then we discovered there was an offer coming in early, and we wanted to get in early as well! On super short notice Elsa crafted a strong offer. There was some back and forth with the sellers during which Elsa gave us excellent advice which put is in a good position of leverage. In the end we got the sale at a price we were really happy with (saved us at least $20k). Elsa was a rock star! She glean critical insights to help the offer, gave good advice along the way, and really hustled to close the deal! A+"

MB - Home Buyer

"Sochi’s representation (knowledge, industry translation into practical terms, expectation management, task delineation and completion) was what we needed to make our much-contemplated decision to sell our home of 17 years a reality. She recognized the market, the potential, our love for the space (!), and our specific situation in every step of this process. It could not have gone more smoothly. Thank you, Sochi"

HL - Home seller

"Sochi was amazing to work with. Thoughtful, readily available, and extremely knowledgeable. She connected us to an incredible number of resources to make the challenging purchase of an old home work (including special financing, knowledgeable appraiser, and previously vetted contractors). Without question, this could not have happened without her and her team's diligence, patience, kindness, and ability to negotiate over a period of time and with challenging terms. We are so grateful for all the handling she provided to make this work and help secure this home for our family."

SS - Home seller + Buyer

"Sochi was patient, understanding, and really let us move at our own pace through this process. She pointed out helpful considerations about the quality, age, and characteristics of various features of the houses and helped us prepare for the various costs associated with closing (and beyond) that we needed to plan for. During contract negotiations, Sochi gave us guidance on what to expect and and checked in with us frequently to see how we were doing and whether we had questions. She was easy to reach, quick to respond, and ready with a helpful perspective to offer. She also helped us with recommendations for lenders and electricians, all of which were excellent. We felt very supported throughout this entire process and were grateful for the guidance, care, and insight Sochi brought to the process, as this was our first time buying a home!"

SS - Home Buyer

"Sochi was our dream realtor! We felt very safe and understood during the whole process. Sochi really knows how to clue into what you are looking for and we felt prioritized in a way that was above and beyond expectation. Sochi guided us in buying our first home. The process was posed to me as daunting by others, but Sochi made it exceptionally easy! We are lucky to have met her and will be recommending her to anyone looking for real estate guidance. Sochi is knowledgeable, thoughtful, and I don’t think we would have found the right house without her brilliance lighting the way."

LE - Home Buyer

"Can't express how grateful we are to have worked with Elsa, both on the sale of a home and the purchase of one. She brought expertise, professionalism and a ton of resources. From flooring and tiling, to inspectors and mortgage professionals, she had all the connections. Elsa had a great sense of humor, she was a calm, steady presence, and a pleasure to be around. Once we stopped touring homes after finding ours, we really missed our Saturday mornings with her! :) Highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home."

RF - Home Seller + Buyer

"Sochi did a great job selling our home. She has a wonderful local knowledge, which includes a local network of small business owners that can assist with various needs in the sale of your home. For example, the week of closing we went back to the house we were selling and noticed the grass was quite long. We asked Sochi for a recommendation on a landscaper, and she provided us with a local, independent business owner who was able to do the job perfectly. She connected us with a stager and made informed recommendations about which investments in our home would get us the best ROI in offers. It was a smooth and easy experience working with Sochi."

CE - Home Seller

"Elsa is amazing to work with. From the business to the emotional side of this house purchase she was with us every step of the way. In this competitive market she recommended exactly the price point to offer that got us the house, and it also aligned when the bank did the appraisal. We’ve already been recommending Elsa to friends."
