It takes patience, dedication, and hard work to reach the top of one's profession; staying there is the real test of time. Take, for instance, real estate agent Elena Sanchez, who has been in the industry for over 20 years.
Her success has earned her a spot in D Magazine's Best Real Estate Agents in Dallas, and rightly so because she has been a top-producing agent in her office and has shown exceptional customer service and dedication in helping her clients buy and sell homes in North Texas.
Elena also has amassed a combined total of nearly one hundred and thirty million dollars in sales in her Realtor and mortgage lending advisory services.
Because of her dedication and commitment to her clients and her business, Elena is recognized for the second year in a row in the International Presidents Circle at Coldwell Banker Realty and was ranked in the top 20 out of 985 agents in the DFW market for Coldwell Banker Realty in 2022.
Her listings and sales have continued to grow her sphere and the loyalty of her client base. She is also recognized as a leader in the first-time homebuyer sector and a specialist in selling new construction homes.
Elena attributes her success to her love and passion for her negation skills, never giving up on her client’s dreams and desires, never taking no as an option and having just enough faith that of a mustard seed.
When Elena left mortgage lending in 2010 after 14-plus years, she made her name as a real estate agent in The DFW housing market, which is highly competitive where properties are receiving multiple offers and are in an overall housing deficit. Elena has developed a knowledge and appreciation of the area. Clients greatly respect Elena because of her persistence, negotiating skills, and global network, among others.
As a Rockwall resident in a suburb east of Dallas, Elena is familiar with the smallest county in the Lone Star State. Rockwall has award-winning schools, a gorgeous lake, plenty of restaurants, entertainment, parks, and recreation, including its wonderful weather and being named among the top 5 best places to live.
Elena’s real estate lending started in 1999 as a mortgage loan officer for Nations Bank and later became a Retail Sales Manager for Bank of America Mortgage Lending in Plano. Her final task before retiring from Bank of America was to manage the loss mitigation center at Bank of America to prevent foreclosures. When she left the Bank, Real Estate bled from her veins, and there was only one option to continue and go to the other side of things, and that is where she
continued to excel. She dominated her market and was among the top five percent of mortgage loan originators in the nation for Bank of America. She received the prestigious Platinum Club award on numerous occasions.
When Elena isn’t listing homes to sell or assisting clients in finding their dream homes, she enjoys her daughter playing volleyball in her tournaments and is proud to be the mother of her son, A pilot in the Air Force. Elena is a family woman devoted to God, her children, and her husband. Elena makes her clients and her friends a priority for life.
