Welcome to Your Trusted Real Estate Partner

Hi, I’m Henri Ellis. My Team & I bring over 40 years of expertise in contract management, negotiation, business management, and sales to every aspect of my real estate business. My husband, Bert, and I discovered our passion for real estate in 2001 when we began investing in homes—renovating, renting, and reselling them. That experience inspired us to dive into real estate full-time, earning my license in Virginia and North Carolina and founding The Henri Ellis Team in 2004. Since then, I’ve been honored to help over 1,000 clients navigate buying, selling, and investing in real estate.

As a top producer with Howard Hanna Real Estate Services, I specialize in everything from assisting first-time buyers to guiding retirees, managing corporate relocations, and working with investors. I’m proud to have received accolades like the Hampton Roads Realtors Association Circle of Excellence award and the Realty Alliance National Sales Excellence Award, but the most meaningful recognition comes from my clients’ trust and satisfaction.

A New World of Real Estate

Real estate today is fast-paced and technology-driven. Buyers are searching online, on their phones, and even using apps to explore neighborhoods. That’s why I combine the latest tools with personalized service to ensure every step of your real estate journey is seamless and rewarding.

How Can I Help?

  • First-Time Buyers: I’ll walk you through the process, including finding the perfect programs for your needs and addressing any lease concerns.
  • Downsizing: Selling the family home is a big step, and I’ll make sure you get the best price while transitioning to a home that fits your new lifestyle.
  • New Construction: Building your dream home? I’ll guide you from planning to move-in day.
  • Relocating: Whether it’s a corporate move or a personal one, I have the resources to make it smooth and stress-free.

Why Work With Me?

I’m proud to offer comprehensive services, leveraging AI-driven platforms like Howard Hanna’s Home Finder and Real Scout, alongside one-stop solutions through Towne Mortgage, Howard Hanna Insurance, and Barristers of Virginia Title & Settlement Services. With a proactive approach, I ensure that every detail—negotiations, inspections, financing, and more—is managed with precision and care. My goal is to make your real estate journey not just successful but truly enjoyable.
