About Elaine Falkenberg

Experience

I am a full time dedicated real estate professional. When I transitioned from the corporate world to real estate 21 years ago, I treated it as launching a new business. I was in sales in New York City, working for a start up company called C2Media straight out of college, then Monster.com as a major account manager. Full steam ahead with marketing, advertising, networking. I invested money, time, and effort into my business. Through the ups and downs of the real estate market, my guiding principles remain the same: a strong work ethic, innovative marketing strategies, a willingness to invest in success, and an unwaveringly positive attitude, energy, and enthusiasm. I've worked with a wide range of clients, including young couples coming from NYC to CT, as well as downsizers/empty nesters. In Naples, my clients are from the Midwest, the Northeast and all over the country - seeking second homes or a full time move to the sunshine state I grew up in Fairfield CT, lived in NYC for many years, then Rowayton (30 years) and Naples. I bring a deep understanding of coastal living and the unique needs of waterfront buyers and sellers. My husband and I are avid sailors and active members of the New York Yacht Club, Stamford Yacht Club, and Naples Sailing and Yacht Club. Beyond sailing, I enjoy tennis, boot camp, Orangetheory, beach runs, biking, and sunset boat rides with our German Shepherds. I?m also passionate about animal welfare and rescues, having traveled to Rwanda twice and hosted fundraisers to support critically endangered mountain gorillas. I am a very adept listing agent. I enjoy the process of developing a customized marketing plan for each property and implementing it. Over my 21 years with William Raveis, I?ve consistently been among the company?s top agents, achieving over $250 million in sales revenue and ranking in the top 10 of more than 4,000 agents multiple times.. I'd love to tell you more about what I can offer you, and more importantly find out what you are looking to do, whether buying or selling. I bring hard work, empathy, excellent listening skills, and I hope a touch of fun to the process. Let?s connect to explore your vision and create a plan that works for you.
