Ellen Zetmeir makes a move to a brokerage closer to the homes she loves most – Chartwell Kansas City Realty in Brookside!

Brookside has been Ellen’s personal home for 13 years – as long as she’s been a Kansas City real estate agent. An old house lover since early in life, she was naturally drawn to the charm and character of KC’s Brookside neighborhood and the historic homes that make it so special. So when an opportunity arose to set up shop in Chartwell’s Brookside Plaza office – located in the literal heart of Kansas City’s premier historic neighborhood – Ellen was all in!

Ellen’s move to Chartwell may be a change in brokerage name, but her clients will receive the same personalized service, open communication, expert negotiations, and help with any and all real estate (and of course, old house) questions. Thanks to her new move, Ellen will be an even more convenient resource for friends and neighbors (and those looking to become friends and neighbors!). And she’ll have even more opportunities to share her knowledge of real estate micro-trends within the Brookside area, along with her expertise on the unique variety of homes found within the neighborhood. Beyond Brookside, Ellen will still be serving clients all across the Kansas City metro, as she is licensed in both Missouri and Kansas.

In addition to her proven expertise in real estate transactions involving older homes, Ellen especially thrives on helping those making the move to one of Brookside’s distinctive century-old homes truly feel “at home” there. Ellen notes, “100+ year-old houses can come with plenty of quirks, some more charming than others, that first-time owners of historic homes may not be familiar with. As I always tell buyers, if you don’t know the answer to an old home question, call me first – I’ve seen it all, and chances are, I can help!”

And when there’s a need for an old home fix or repair, Ellen is also here to help. Ellen’s extensive I’ve Got A Guy network of plumbers, landscapers, roofers, contractors, inspectors, painters (and more!) is an invaluable resource. Their combined decades of hands-on experience and mastery in the “tricks of the trade” when it comes to historic homes can be a lifesaver (and wallet and time-saver!). Ellen regularly recommends her highly vetted (and extremely reliable) older home professionals – all with long histories of solving most any issue that owners of historic homes may face.
