Ellen Sither

 

As a three-time annual Raving Fans Award Recipient and voted the Realtor of the Year by Haywood REALTOR® Association in 2017, it is clear Ellen’s innate ability to identify and match buyer and seller goals serves her clients well. In 2023, Ellen was honored as the Outgoing Referral Associate of the Year for the Waynesville office, solidifying her reputation as a steadfast agent supported by an expansive global real estate network to meet her client’s needs. Ellen’s passion is to serve her clients with exceptional service, and that is evident as she is recognized as a Legacy Agent with over $65 million in career sales at Allen Tate/Beverly-Hanks, REALTORS®.

Ellen’s peers have also attested to her commitment to the real estate profession by recognizing her in 2015, 2013, and 2012 with the Allen Tate/Beverly-Hanks Realtors® - Waynesville Office’s Contributing to Excellence Award. Her involvement with the Haywood Realtor Association (HRA), expanded her real estate expertise as a Board Member, Treasurer, Vice President, and elected HRA President in 2017. Her service has afforded Ellen the opportunity to lead while expanding her knowledge of real estate business. 

As a Canopy Housing Foundation Western Region Committee member, Ellen is actively working toward equity in housing for the Western North Carolina area. She is deeply committed to giving back to the communities she serves and enjoys honoring her clients with a donation for each transaction she is involved in. Ellen is proud of her association with Canopy’s Foundation. After devasting floods swept through the Western North Carolina mountains in 2021, Haywood County received a significant donation from The Board of Directors of Canopy Realtor® Association and Canopy MLS. Together, they contributed a total of $400,000 for flood relief here in Haywood County. Ellen’s commitment to addressing challenges never stops, no matter the cause. 

Originally from Atlanta, Georgia, Ellen relocated with her family to Western North Carolina in 1996 to take advantage of Waynesville’s charm and small-town atmosphere. She graduated from the University of Georgia with a BBA in Accounting and has extensive professional business experience. On the personal front for 2023,  Ellen spent some time in Australia recently as her oldest daughter and son-in-law welcomed their second baby. And she enjoyed celebrating her youngest daughter’s wedding in June. Ellen is practicing the act of work-life balance!
