About the Listing Agent

Darlene Colwell-Ellis

KW Coastal and Lakes & Mountains Realty/Dover

DARLENE COLWELL-ELLIS LISTING EXPERT| BROKER LICENSED IN NH & ME A seasoned professional, Darlene will efficiently walk you through every step of the home-selling process. She's been working with buyers and sellers since 1991. Many of her closed transactions have been born from referrals. Here’s why she can help guide you through the process with a terrific outcome: She’ll talk over details with you and offer ideas to help you have clear expectations as she sells your home. After she sets a fair market value for your home, she can navigate any bidding war so you realize your best options to meet your wants and needs. Her veteran status in the industry, from Dover, NH, and throughout the region, gives her insights into agents and brokerages. Though she works primarily on behalf of single-family home sellers, she's also brokered million-dollar commercial deals and manages apartment rentals in Strafford & Rockingham counties. Beyond dedication to her clients, Darlene is a designated resource for other agents within Keller Williams and is actively involved in the continued development of the Dover community. Although her close relationship with her grown sons and young grandchildren keeps her local during most of the year, she also regularly carves out time for mission projects worldwide.
