Elena was born and raised in Milan, Italy, and has lived in London, Toronto, Pennsylvania and briefly in Los Angeles. She has enjoyed her time in all those wonderful places, but when she came for a vacation to Delray Beach a few years ago, she fell in love with the incredible South Florida lifestyle. Within three months she and her husband relocated their family and they have never looked back.
After years working in interior design and home staging, and with a background in law, transitioning to real estate has been a very natural and organic next step. Real Estate has been the instrument that has allowed Elena to finally use all her talents. With her staging expertise, she can present your property at its best, so you can sell it fast and at the highest possible price. With her wide experience in design and renovations, she can assist you in looking at the full potential of the property you are considering as your next home or investment. Her focus, hard work and attention to details are second to none. Add to this her background in law and business acumen and you will not be disappointed in allowing Elena to help you with your real estate needs.
When not at work, Elena cherishes quality time with her two daughters, her husband and two dogs. She enjoys the company of good friends. She loves design, traveling, playing tennis, exercising, and good food paired with delicious wine. Her energy and passion for a meaningful and well lived life are contagious.

Jerome G. I would like to commend you for your professional and aggressive performance in selling my home in Delray Beach.

I would strongly recommend you as well as your company which you represent very effectively. Thanks for making this sale an easy one!

Deborah R. What a relief! Elena was able to easily steer me through the entire sales and buying processes, from staging to negotiations to finding the right property to closings, her knowledge and work ethic were second to none. She was always on top of everything and made my experience as hassle free as possible. I would highly recommend her services to anyone looking to sell their home or purchase a new one.

Fiona and George S. We couldn’t be happier in our experience working with Elena Carissimo. Picking a realtor is such a difficult task and picking the right one can truly shape your life. Elena is truly the hardest working person in the business and we would know because on average we move every 3 years. Unlike other realtors, She took care of all the leg work and even helped me stage my house to make it more appealing. We knew we were being taken care of and she wouldn’t settle for anything but excellence. Elena came very prepared to our initial meeting and her professionalism and thoughtfulness continued throughout the entire process. She is extremely responsive, no matter what day or time. We were so lucky to have chosen Elena Carissimo and wouldn’t have any other realtor represent us after working with her.
