Selling or buying a home is never just a transaction — it’s a significant life moment. Whether it’s your first home, a long-planned investment, or the beginning of a new chapter, Ella is deeply committed to making that journey seamless, informed, and positive.

With over three years of real estate experience and a proven track record of going above and beyond for her clients, Ella brings a calm, confident presence to what can often feel like a daunting process. Known for her honest advice, tireless work ethic, and clear, consistent communication, Ella has earned a reputation for being the kind of agent who always puts people first — because for her, real estate is ultimately about relationships, trust, and doing what’s right.

Her high standards and attention to detail are matched by a strong moral compass — every decision she makes is guided by integrity and the best interests of her clients. From her first meeting with you to the final handshake (and well beyond), Ella is a steady hand, always working behind the scenes to ensure no stone is left unturned.

Having co-owned a construction company with her partner for the last six years, Ella understands the value of craftsmanship, presentation, and how to spot true potential in a property. Her earlier ventures — including running a successful cleaning business and working in hospitality and makeup artistry — reflect her natural drive to build things from the ground up and deliver exceptional results in every role she takes on.

Her background means she brings a rare blend of practical expertise, creative insight, and emotional intelligence — she knows that no two clients are the same, and listens carefully to what really matters to you.

Born and raised in Christchurch, Ella has deep roots in the community and a local’s knowledge of the region. She’s passionate about the city’s growth and is proud to help others build their future here.

Outside of real estate, family is her world. When she’s not working hard for her clients, she’s spending time with her children, enjoying great food and wine, or exploring the outdoors — hiking, road-tripping across the South Island, and making memories with the people she loves most.

Ella’s clients often describe her as warm, reliable, and relentlessly hardworking. But more than anything, they feel genuinely cared for — and that’s exactly how she wants you to feel too.

From the initial consultation to the final closing, Ella's professionalism, dedication, and expertise were evident every step of the way. Ella took the time to understand our needs and provided valuable advice on how to best prepare our home for sale. Her marketing strategy was top-notch, showcasing our property in the best possible light and attracting a large number of potential buyers. Throughout the entire process, Ella kept us informed and promptly addressed any questions or concerns we had. Thanks to Ella's hard work and negotiation skills, we received multiple offers and ultimately sold our home for a price that exceeded our expectations. We truly appreciate her commitment to ensuring a smooth and successful transaction. We highly recommend Ella Richardson and the team at Ray White Real Estate to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in Christchurch.
