Ellen Jaffe Jones is a seasoned real estate agent who specializes in both residential and commercial properties. She currently works at Realty ONE Group Skyline and is based in Sarasota, FL. As a member of the National Association of Realtors (NAR), Ellen has established herself as a trusted professional in the industry. One of the key factors that has contributed to Ellen's success is her ability to build strong relationships with her clients. She prides herself on having a good rapport with each and every one of them, which has helped her to understand their unique needs and preferences. This, in turn, has allowed her to provide personalized service and guidance throughout the buying or selling process. Ellen Jaffe Jones, a native of St. Louis, is a former two-time Emmy recipient for her work as a TV investigative journalist in Miami for over 18 years. Her reputation as a tough, honest, and determined reporter was well-known, and she never accepted "no" as an answer when holding public officials accountable. Ellen's hard work paid off when she won the National Press Club award for consumer reporting, where she discovered real estate fraud in Missouri. Her reporting led to the creation of several real estate laws, which now protect consumers from the types of abuses she regularly reported on. In 1980, Ellen won her first Emmy after uncovering a story about the Miami school superintendent, who stole gold-plated plumbing for his Naples summer home. Her reporting led to the superintendent's conviction, which resulted in death threats. However, with the help of a relatively unknown prosecutor, Rudy Giuliani, the superintendent was eventually sentenced to jail time. Despite the challenges she faced, Ellen's unwavering commitment to investigative journalism and public accountability has left a lasting impact on the field. Real estate was in her blood as she grew up on weekends following her father into new subdivisions that would eventually need the family business services. She knows the parks and neighboring communities like the back of her hand and running feet. Her reputation for great listening allows her to dig to find rapidly what buyers and sells value.
