Heather was amazing since day one of going through the process of purchasing our first home and throughout the years that we have lived in it and to now being sold. Our family couldn’t thank her enough!

I want to thank Hazel O'Donnell with Team Ellis, she made the selling process of our home of 32 years a breeze. She kept me informed and on top of everything that was going on, they treated us like one of their family members ❤️
I highly recommend using Next Home Team Ellis when purchasing your next home or selling your home you won’t find a more experienced group to work with!

Working with Heather to sell our house was amazing! She was professional, clearly communicated everything, and always answered any questions or concerns we had. The entire process was one of the most seamless and easy selling process we have ever had! I highly recommend Heather if you want a stress free selling process with one of the best in the business.

Team Ellis stands out as the premier real estate firm in Waynesville, MO. We had the pleasure of working with Heather, who had previously assisted my in-laws with the sale of their home. Her dedication and attention to detail were evident from the start—she ensured our home was thoroughly prepared for the market, leaving no aspect overlooked.
Heather provided excellent recommendations for trusted professionals to handle all necessary maintenance and repairs, streamlining the process with efficiency and care. Our one request was consistent communication throughout the sale, and Heather not only honored that request but far surpassed our expectations.
Having sold several homes in the past, we were genuinely impressed by how quickly this property sold—faster than any of our previous experiences. Heather’s expertise and professionalism were clearly reflected in both our transaction and that of my in-laws. The entire process was swift, seamless, and remarkably intuitive.
We wholeheartedly recommend Team Ellis and commend Heather for her outstanding service. A truly exceptional experience from start to finish.

We have used Team Ellis for purchase when we moved in and for sale when we moved away and it was a totally positive experience. They are professional yet friendly, handled everything so smoothly and was available for any questions. The pictures of the home we sold were amazing and it sold remarkably quickly! I can't recommend Lisa and her team highly enough.

Lisa was absolutely fantastic and helped sell our house. I just loved her personality too. Fit mine do well.

This is the third time using Lisa from Team Ellis, and let me just say it was just as easy as the first time. Lisa is a wonderful person with a tremendous amount of patience. She will fight for what is right for you as a buyer or a seller. The things that I like most about her is how kind and honest she is with you. She will tell you what you need to do to get the most for your money. She is by far the best realtor I have ever worked with and I hope to do business with her again and again, as many times as she will allow! I can't say anything bad about my experiences with her and her team. BEST EVER!!!

We bought the house. We did not use a realtor. Heather Barnett represented the seller. She was amazing. She did a great job advocating for her client. She was very honest and straightforward.

We had an incredible experience working with JP! From start to finish, he was nothing but professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful. He made the entire home buying process feel manageable, always keeping our best interests at heart. If you’re looking for someone honest, dependable, and truly dedicated to his clients, he’s your guy. I truly can’t say enough good things about him — highly recommend!

We recently sold our house in St. Robert Missouri. Ms. Lisa Ellis was very professional and helped us throughout the difficult process by making it easy.
Ms. Ellis got our house sold in 7 weeks. She took care of everything so that we could return to our home state in Texas.
I would highly recommend Team Ellis if you need a professional that gets the job done.
Her personal touch, care and communication are exceptional.

Team Ellis is an excellent resource for anyone in the market for real estate needs. They are professional and attentive to the clients requirements with prompt feedback at every level. “Team Ellis” should be renamed to
“Team Excellence”!

- Tim Curtis (Homeowner )

I already wrote a recommendation for Team Ellis, but I need to write about Heather Bassett. Heather is the example by which all agents should be held accountable. She is, most of all, sincere. Heather’s care for the client is professional and personable. We started off with meeting with her at a property and soon became friends. She listened to our needs and worked to find us what we wanted, even to the point of finding a listing with a different agent. We owe Heather a ton of gratitude for guiding us through our purchase as well as helping with selling our current property two states away! Again, if you want real estate purchase and sales done right, Heather is where to start, you will not have to look any further.

We had an amazing experience with Team Ellis, first when buying our home, and later when it came time to sell. Throughout both processes, they were professional, responsive, and incredibly knowledgeable.
A huge thank you to Misty McDonald, who truly went above and beyond. She made everything feel effortless, offering helpful pointers and taking on the hard work behind the scenes so we didn’t have to stress. Her dedication, attention to detail, and proactive communication made both transactions smooth and successful.
If you’re looking to buy or sell, we highly recommend Misty McDonald and Team Ellis. They’re a team you can trust to get the job done right.

OMGOODNESS where do I begin? These people are AMAZING!! Heather Bassett not only sold our house in 4 days for full asking price but also helped me in closing on our house in another state. If it wasn’t for Heather and her amazing team our house would have never sold and she did it out of kindness! These people are amazing and I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND them as the only real estate I would trust completely. Heather and everyone at Team Ellis including Lisa are all such amazing people. They care first and foremost about their clients and making sure they’re happy. I would like to personally thank them all for their support and kindness. These people are 100% who you want as your realtors!!!

My parents and I lived on the same land. Separate homes. They decided to be snowbirds for a year and loved it so much they made the hardest decision they ever had to make and that was to move to FL and sell the property my siblings and I grew up in for 40 plus years, and one they worked so hard for. It might not have been much to some but to us, it was our comfort. When it was time to make that final decision, I knew exactly who I wanted to be our realtor. I wanted someone who I could trust, someone who was honest, and someone who kept my parents and myself informed, (I’m out of state as well) and who would make the process as stress free as possible for my parents. Working with Heather Bassett was a breeze! She gave us advice and set up numbers so we can visually see what she was explaining over video. Every question we had, she explained it so we could understand it. We had no worries and had all the faith in her. She was very understanding as we had a hard time letting go of our home but I wouldn’t have wanted anyone else to help us through this process. Thank you Heather for your hard work and patience with us and making it easy with us living out of state.

Heather went above and beyond what my wife and I had expected when selling our older home. She gave advice on improvements to make in order to get the best selling price, and we got it. She even suggested and arranged for contractors to get work done in a short-fuzed time frame. In our opinion she definately earned every bit of her commission. I highly recommend Team Ellis for anybody planning to sell their home.

When looking for a home, Team Ellis was great and getting back with us about places we were interested in and as soon as we found the one we wanted it was smooth sailing from there. When things needed to be signed they promptly let us know and if we had questions they get them answered within the day. This was our first time buying a home and I felt like the help we received was so worth it! I’d use them again! Thank you for being to reliable, personable, and helpful!

We are incredibly grateful for the exceptional service we received from Misty MacDonald throughout the entire process of selling our home. From the first consultation to the final closing, everything was seamless and stress-free. Misty brought professionalism, honesty, and deep market knowledge that made all the difference. Every detail was handled with care, from pricing strategy and showing advice to negotiation support. Communication was consistent and clear, and we always felt informed and confident in each step. Selling a home can be overwhelming and stressful, but Misty made it feel effortless. We were ecstatic with the outcome and impressed by how smooth the entire experience was. It was truly a pleasure working with someone who genuinely cared about our goals. We highly recommend Misty to anyone looking for a trustworthy and top-tier real estate professional. Thank you, Team Ellis!

Team Ellis was amazing to work with from start to finish, they were very informative about our options, they got us the best price for our home, very prompt with all paperwork and documents.
They gave us a personal touch with our transaction, were easy to talk with and eased any concerns that may have been had.
JP definately made the sale easy and would highly recommend contacting him for your sales and purchases.

Lisa and her team have sold and bought houses for us twice. Both times were seamless and stress free. On her birthday this past year she drove out to our house (30 minutes away) to give us a stove part we needed for our listed house. Only down side is this last home is our forever home so we won’t need her anymore! But will recommend her to all our family and friends.

We couldn't be happier with our experience with Team Ellis. Lisa's market analysis was spot on. We had a bid at our asking price within four days of listing the house. Lisa and her team were with us every step of the way. We highly recommend Team Ellis to anyone wanting to sell a home.

We interviewed three agencies and decided to go with team Ellis, and it was a very good decision for us. Heather was our agent and did an outstanding job for us throughout the entire process. She kept us informed as to what was going on and was quick to answer any questions that arose. I would highly recommend the team Ellis agency for any of your buying or selling needs.

This is our second time using Team Ellis! We have nothing but praise for their creativity, understanding, efficiency and overall goodness!

Hazel worked with us before we were even in the country, taking us on video tours of houses in the area. We felt taken care of since the very beginning.

We have worked with Hazel O'Donnell several times now - first when buying our home, then with a property purchase. Our son has even used her. Each experience has been smooth and positive. She's knowledgeable, dependable and truly cares about her clients. Beyond being a great realtor, she's also a genuinely kind person, which makes the process so much easier. We're grateful for all her help and highly recommend Hazel O'Donnell and Team Ellis.

As a military family, we’ve spent years moving from place to place, rarely having the chance to truly settle in. The idea of buying a home felt so permanent in what has always been such a temporary lifestyle.
Thanks to Heather, who is not only an incredible realtor but also one of our dearest friends, we found our perfect home. Her guidance, patience, and deep knowledge of the market made the process smooth and stress-free. She understood our unique situation and helped us feel confident in taking this big step.
We’re so grateful for her support, and we love knowing that if the Army ever calls us to move again, she’ll be right there to help us rent our home and turn it into an investment opportunity. Heather truly goes above and beyond for her clients, and we couldn’t recommend her more highly.
