In the 1980’s he did spend eight years in the Midwest and Southwest as a member of the NFL’s Chiefs, Colts and Oilers/TITANS. Additionally, Ellis holds a Professional Engineer’s license, so when he says, “Go With a Pro!” he is prompting you to choose a Realtor with a proven success track record and no stranger to hard work.

Teresa Pitt, CRS is a native of Eastern North Carolina, 41-year spouse of her high school sweetheart and Air Force Retiree, Dalton, and mother of two wonderful adult sons, Jamaal (PhD) and Anton. Rounding out the family is her lovely daughter-in-law, Camille, and Grandson Cali, and adorable mini dachshund, Mavis. Licensed in 1994, my real estate voyage began in Fayetteville, NC. Because of her husband’s military career, in June of 1997, her family relocated to Raleigh, NC. Service, commitment, loyalty, industry passion, committee involvement, and various leadership roles illustrate her 27-year real estate career.
Teresa credits the bulk of her success to a philosophy she adapted from the start of her journey; treating everyone with the utmost dignity and respect, being completely and totally honest always, and sticking to the “Golden Rule” of doing unto others as you would have them do unto you.
Arlene Kim-Kawamoto, CRS has been a Realtor® and licensed broker serving Hawaii for 32 years. Born and raised on the island of Oahu, I am very familiar with Oahu market trends, the diversity of our people and their needs. She finds it a joy in helping people find the property that suits them best. There's nothing more rewarding to me than a satisfied customer!
