Elise is so easy to work with. My husband and I both work fulltime and have a child under age one making our free time limited. She was readily available in the evenings and weekends when needed, and comfortable with three way calls which were often necessary. She followed our lead when it came to how we wanted to utilize our time looking at homes and selling our condo. She gave good advice when it came to negotiations and has an excellent understanding of the local market. Without her guidance the process would not have been so seamless.
Elise was an absolute gem in helping us to find a condo, and then helping us to sell our home of 25 years. We reached out to Elise, after several people had recommended her services, particularly in finding a condo. Elise had so much patience and so much presence throughout her work with us. We enjoyed her humor, and her willingness to allow us the space we needed at times, when decisions were hard to come to, and she patiently awaited for us to arrive at what was right for us. In selling our home, she distributed similar qualities, providing us with some helpful direction, and also honoring our long history in the home, and the feelings of saying goodbye, and still be ready to make the selling of the home a reality. Not only is Elise a wonderful realtor, but more importantly a kind, gentle and real person which was so helpful to have someone like her alongside us through what can sometimes be trying times in buying and selling real estate. We both feel a huge gratitude for all she offered us during those times!
Selling our Portland, Maine townhouse after 25 years was a daunting task. Reports of a changing housing market, coupled with a complicated & unfamiliar real estate process, made clear aEUR~For Sale by Owner was not an option for us. From the Vitalius Real Estate Group market reports & newsletters received in the mail, we determined Elise Loschiavo had the experience & knowledge to sell our condo. Elise didnt disappoint. Elise demonstrated the expertise on how to best market our townhouse and kept us abreast on each step, explaining the real estate process, terminology & contracts in terms we understood. Elises resource network, including a stager & photographer, was critical in making our townhouse competitive with other condos listed for our area. Appreciation of Elises services & resources grew when, after selling our condo, we relocated to Oregon switching to the role of Buyer. Exploring area listings on internet sites and onsite tours, we found several houses profiled the Sellers life in residence, not a place my wife & I could make our new home: * Oversized/numerous pieces of furniture giving a room a cramped look; * Personal photos or knickknacks throughout the home; and * Spaces, especially closets, filled with clothing, toys, storages boxes, etc. Thanks to Elise & her network of resources, our listing avoided these shortcomings by presenting our condo in a manner a Buyer could picture themselves living in. The Result: Our condo was under contract within two days and $20k over the asking price. Our cross-country move from Maine to Oregon required making numerous & daily decisions. One of our best decisions was enlisting Elise as our real estate agent to sell our Portland, ME condo.
culture of the city but also the changes that it went through. She met me where I was at, she didnt push locations I didnt like. I was working with a smaller budget and wanted a unique kind of property. I started with her in November of 2024 and closed on a house by june 2025. She was creative with the lender, and she just provided the knowledge when we looked at properties. She has a strong sense of the what makes a property a good property 8 regards to a heating system. Etc. she was creative with how we did the offer but made sure I felt comfortable. And overall shes fun and delightful!
We had an excellent experience working with Elise Loschiavo at Vitalius. Her professionalism, market knowledge, and dedication to client satisfaction truly set her apart. She guided us through every step of the process with clear communication and expert advice, ensuring we made informed decisions. Her responsiveness and attention to detail made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. She lived up to her reputation as the Condo Queen!
We had visited Portland for many years and felt the time had come to start looking for a second home condo. Where do you start when you live 3 states away in Connecticut? As many others do, we started looking on the internet and reading reviews and testimonials. When we read about Elise and the team at Vitalius, we felt we had to check them out. On a visit to Portland, we walked into their office without an appointment and were greeted immediately with friendly service. Brit Vitalius stopped what he was doing and listened to us ask all about the condo market. Brit passed our information to Elise and she contacted us within a few hours. Elise understood our situation and set us up with all the tools to keep an eye on the market from Connecticut. When we saw a property that interested us, Elise would immediately give us her honest opinion and at times she would visit the property without us and send us videos and pictures. We eventually found the perfect condo and that is when Elise really shined. We saw the condo on a Saturday and created an offer strategy with Elises guidance. Minimal negotiation and the offer was accepted on Monday afternoon. Our desired closing date was late December and we only had about 6 weeks to make this happen while working around two major holidays. Elise and her team immediately went to work and scheduled the inspection, attended the inspection for us, and followed up on the items that needed to be addressed. (How could we have done all this from 3 states away?) Also - Elise recommended to us a local mortgage agent that was familiar with the city and state regulations which made everything go incredibly smoothly. Elise is professional, attentive, patient, informative, experienced, friendly, and just wonderful to work with. We love our condo in Portland and there is no way we could have bought it without Elise. We would recommend Elise to anyone!
Elise has helped us buy and sell several properties. Her knowledge and skill are an invaluable resource to anyone looking to buy or sell a house or condo. Our most recent transaction involved a tight turnaround, and Elise made everything work smoothly and kept us calm throughout the process. Highly recommended.
Elise was an absolute superstar agent and invaluable in helping me buy my first condo. She came highly recommended by local friends, and I recommend her in turn to anyone buying in Portland, especially condos! She knows the area inside and out and has an amazing sense of the market. As a first time homebuyer, I appreciated her insights and expertise, especially when it came to negotiating--I trusted when she said something was fairly priced, or when she thought we could get a reduction if we pushed. She really took the time to get to know me and what I was looking for, to the point where I'm pretty sure that she knew before I did that I was going to fall in love with the condo I eventually bought. She called on all her local connections to make sure I was the first one in to see it--and the first one to offer. Basically, Elise is the best.
I was passed Elises contact info by a mortgage lender who recommended her experience with condo sales in Portland. We had an initial call and in person meet up and her calm deamenor had me sold. She had lots of experience with condos, had sold a unit in my building, and had experience with workforce units (which mine was), making her the perfect trifecta for me. Working with Elise was EASY. She answered my questions in a clear and concise manner and it felt like she was on my team and was always looking out for me. She was along for the ride with me at every step of the process, especially working with the city through the workforce housing piece. She helped me stay calm and collected at all times. Her calm, cool presentation really puts you at ease and removes the tension of stressful conversations. Her advice was sound and backed with experience and data at every turn. I was very impressed and have recommended her to so many people!
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed working with Elise and Vitalius Real Estate on purchasing and selling a condo in the West End. Searching for a condo in Portland during the height of the pandemic was no easy task, but Elise went above and beyond to find us exactly what we were looking for. Her knowledge of the Portland condo market as well as the health of condo associations was invaluable. Elise was always available, provided solutions when issues arose which was extremely helpful as out of state buyers. She always returned emails and calls promptly and we trusted her throughout the entire process. When we made the decision to sell the condo due to a family situation we knew there was no-one else but Elise that we wanted to work with. She got us top dollar and made the selling process a breeze. I highly recommend Elise to anyone looking for an accomplished realtor.
We bought a lovely condo on Monjoy Hill in Portland, Maine and decided to sell it this spring after almost 4 years of ownership. We were very lucky to have Elise Loschiavo handle the sale. We had several other well-known real estate brokers give estimates on the property and they undervalued it by hundreds of thousands of dollars. I have never run across such a calm, can-do, absolutely thorough and honest real estate broker. I have bought and sold in LA, NY and South America, so I have had quite a lot of experience with real estate investing and sales. Elise was very responsible and her follow-through on every detail was stellar. AND she got an excellent price on the sale of the apartment, for which we will be eternally grateful. Her office backup was equally excellent. All of these positives made me want to share the experience so others can benefit from the same kind of highly professional care we received from Elise and Vitalus.
We wanted to sell our condo and buy a bigger, more efficient condo nearby. After a misdirection, we were advised by a retired realtor friend that Elise knows the area better than any other realtor. Once we started working with her, we were not disappointed. Shes friendly, well organized, and available. She knew about properties that were beginning to think about selling. Her insights in making a deal were very helpful to us, and we decided, with her encouragement, on a property that fit our wish list. Elise is a very kind, friendly, and conscientious person and it all worked smoothly.
Elise is fantastic! She was referred to us by another Realtor. Elise took care of everything, kept us on track and walked us through the buying process. Communication is key and she was excellent. We moved to Portland from out of state and she showed us all the homes we wanted to see. After searching for a home for a few weeks, we selected a home and came under contract by the end of the first month and closed the following month. We love our new home and Portland is amazing. It was a relief to have Elise as our agent and friend. We knew we were in good hands.
Elise Loschiavo recently helped us sell our condo on Munjoy Hill in Portland, ME. The transaction was the smoothest we?ve had in our many years of buying and selling homes. She was open and professional ? from her market study to set the price to the easy negotiations and the closing. Her most important quality for us was her availability and clear communications. We always felt secure that the process was moving ahead as it should. We highly recommend her.
Elise is hands down the absolute best in Portland. Shes so on the ball, knows the scoop on everything happening in town (and often far before it hits the market!), and is hyper organized. Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, she is very relaxed and pressure-free to work with. I highly recommend working with Elise!

After working with and being disappointed in two realtors, I met Elise and knew, third time would be the charm. Elise knows every inch and cranny of Portland. She was straightforward and incredibly patient with all my questions. Elise actually listens, and she never wasted my time. It only took looking at 4 properties for me to find the perfect place. We viewed the condo on Wednesday and on Saturday, my offer was accepted. Her familiarity with the market and her strategic skills at negotiating make her an excellent realtor. Plus shes a lovely person!
Elise, Im sure recognized immediately that my husband was a knowledgeable carpenter, with a lifetime of working with real estate brokers. I sat there thinking about what she might be thinking as she listened to him that first time. Would he be difficult to work with? Sometimes a lot of knowledge can get in the way of smooth and quick sales. I was however, immediately able to relax as I could see she recognized a practical voice, that being his, and yet my more aesthetic one, without any problem. She was capable of hearing two voices at once. Elise was game. She looked us in the eye, responded to our concerns, in a quiet, thoughtful way. No hesitation from us recommending this company and particularly this woman. She will let you join her on this - your journey, and you will find that it will get you just where you want to be.
Elise was amazing from start to finish. Great communicator and really made the process as stress free as possible. Appropriately set expectations, was knowledgeable and effective. She would be your first call if you want I sell a home in Portland.
We worked with Elise Loschiavo on the sale of our house and were impressed with her professional attitude throughout the process. She was polite, informative and responsive to all inquiries by buyers, other brokers, and helped us deal with showing a house during COVID-concerns. The website, photographs and listings created by or at the behest of Vitalius were detailed and distinctive. We enthusiastically recommend Elise!
Elise and the entire Vitalius team went above and beyond helping me with the sale of three Portland condominium units. Weather you?re buying or selling, Elise?s knowledge of the market is an invaluable resource. I often recommend Vitalius to friends and family, and I look forward to working with them again in the future.

Elise Loschiavo did an incredible job negotiating the purchase of our new home. She thought of every detail, and made the process manageable and organized. She has recommendations for any person you may need along the way - from cleaners to painters. Elise is a top notch professional and I highly recommend her!
My wife and I worked with Vitalius when we hired Elise Loschiavo to help us buy our home. We were very happy with the firm and with Elise. We liked her so much that we recommended her to a friend of ours when it was time for him to sell his home, and Elise sold that sucker in 48 hours.
I approached Elise over three years ago with plans to buy a condo on the peninsula. The awkward deal required finding a property within the right area, the right price range, having a sitting tenant paying the right amount of rent, and a seller with the patience to work with us when they could otherwise sell quickly in a hot market. Elise worked with me through countless starts and stops and spent numerous un-compensated hours drawing up agreements and visiting properties only for them to fall over at the last hurdle. Eventually, we found a great condo in a great part of town which fit the bill and Elise, despite a constantly moving target, got the deal done. You could not be in better hands. Elise knows the town, knows the people and has important insight to the different association boards and can let you know what you might be in for if you decide to buy. I can not recommend her highly enough. A true pro!
Elise was wonderful to work with selling our townhouse. She was patient especially since we had some tight timelines. Her estimate of what our unit would sell for was very accurate. Communication is also one of her strengths. I highly recommend Elise and Vitalius Real Estate!!!
Elise and Brit are a wonderful team and are such a pleasure to work with. Elise helped me find and purchase a condo in Portland. They know the landscape incredibly well, and are sincerely out to help their clients, not just "make a sale." Before looking into large real estate organizations, I HIGHLY recommend dropping by Vitalius.
Last summer we purchased our very first home and were thrilled to have Elise as our realtor. She was wonderful and put minimal pressure on us, being super transparent the whole time. The company was very helpful in guiding us through the whole process, and we felt very informed and in good hands as we made this huge life decision. Highly recommended!
Elise Loschiavo our real estate agent (and friend, and house whisperer) not only lead us through this journey, but also is truly the reason we landed in our dream home. A random conversation in July set us on a path to this house that is exactly what we were looking for. Elise Loschiavo was there for us every second, answered every crazy stress text and always lead us in the right direction. If anyone is looking to buy or sell a home, she is your woman. Thanks for everything you did for us Elise.
I highly recommend Elise Loschiavo at Vitalius. As a first-time home buyer, she helped me through the process with honesty, kindness, and positivity. She is a great listener and was incredibly responsive to all my questions. She checked in frequently and helped me every step of the way, with expert advice and humor. Ultimately, she helped me buy my first home and I am very grateful for all her work and dedication. I couldn't have done it without her.
My fiancA(C)e and I used Elise to purchase our first home this past summer. Elise was wonderful to work with. She was incredibly patient with us as we looked at houses over a long span of time, and waited for us to find the right place, without any pressure. She is personable, knowledgeable about the market, and has a laid-back and calming style that was refreshing in the otherwise stressful home buying process. We would recommend her to anyone.
Thank you, thank you, thank you Elise!!!!! I am a first time home buyer and decided to go through Vitalius Real Estate Group. Elise was like an angel!!! I think it is important to note that I have a HORRIBLE time making decisions and was buying on my own. I often have to call a friend (or my mom) when checking out at a store just to make sure I am making the right choice. Elise was so knowledgeable, patient and helpful I never had fear. At first I thought I had all the time in the world to shop for the right place, but then my timeline changed and I was anxious to figure it out. Elise did such a nice job listening to my needs, while also providing her input. She steered me away from my impulses while validating my interests at the same time. I felt she had my back and knew I had no need to worry! I cannot sing enough praises for Elise and the help she provided me during one of the happiest and scariest steps in my life. I am so full of joy and gratitude in my new home. Thank you Vitalius. Thank you Elise!!!
Elise was a fantastic agent that handled the ups and downs of our ultimately successful search calmly and expertly. She is friendly, knowledgeable, available, and candid. She adapted gracefully to changes in our focus and budget over the course of the process and was never pushy. Elise is also just an awesome all-around person. I would recommend her highly to anyone looking for real estate in and around Portland, ME.
Elise and Brit walked us through our first home purchase with the best possible care. They helped us pin down the best neighborhoods for our needs and were stunningly responsive to every request and email. Elise's knowledge of the market was incredibly valuable to us and we were grateful for her humor and patience throughout our search. We are thrilled to be in our dream home now because of their careful advising but will miss working closely with this extremely talented team.
My partner and I recently purchased our dream home in Portland Maine. Elise showed us a property on a cold-call over the winter... a few months later she called to let us know she had a property that was a great fit. Of note is that Elise was not our real estate representative at that time. Elise and the Vitalius team exceeded our expectations. They were excellent with problem solving and helping us with contractor referrals. Highly recommend!
We cant speak highly enough of our experience with Elise Loschiavo. My girlfriend and I were first-time home buyers with very little knowledge about home buying and how to find the right place. When we met with Elise we knew instantly that she was the one for us. She is honest and hands-on, and she really helped to take the pressure off of us. We never felt forced to make an offer, and when we finally found aEURoethe oneaEUR?, Elise walked us through every step of the negotiations . We were very fortunate in getting connected with Elise, and ever since we have recommended her to friends looking for homes and thinking about selling.
We have worked with Elise Loschiavo as sellers and buyers. If you are considering selling or just starting your house search, I highly recommend working with Elise. I can't say enough about how hard Elise works! Buying/selling a house can be an overwhelming experience and Elise is just the person you need to be your guide through the whole process. She is patient, thorough and takes the time to make sure you understand everything. I saw her as our advocate through both the selling and buying process and she made sure we knew that we could call her at any time with concerns and questions. The house we ended up purchasing needed a lot of work and she worked with with us and the seller's realtor to get the best deal for us and stayed on top of all the contractors and details throughout the whole process. Elise loves what she does, she is passionate about the Portland area and will stick with you until you find the house that works for you. It was a joy to work with her!
My husband and I were extremely pleased with Elise. She listened carefully to our needs. She made herself available at all times during our real estate adventure. Elise also made us feel that she was genuinely interested in helping us find the right house for us. She is very knowledgeable of the Portland area housing market. We enjoyed her sense of humor and honesty. We highly recommend her as a realtor.
Working with Elise was great from start to finish. My first real estate agent didn't take the time to fully understand my needs. When I reached out to Elise, she had me come into the office to go over what I am looking for (must-haves vs. nice-to-haves), as well as outline the entire home buying process. As a first-time home buyer, this was extremely helpful and set my mind at ease. She was always very flexible schedule-wise and didn't push me at all during the process. Would highly recommend!
Elise was great! She listened to all of my wants and needs and was proactive about finding me great places to look. Elise had a great relationship with everyone you need to deal. She took care of everything. Elise responded immediately to all of my requests and was always easy to get in touch with. I found her to be honest and knowledgeable and always felt as if she was looking out for my best interests. I would highly recommend Elise to anyone looking to buy in Portland or Southern Maine.
Elise helped us through every step of our first-time home buying experience. In the end she found the perfect home for us and got us in to see it before anyone else. Along the way she took the time to talk us through every step of the process and drive to wherever we wanted. She clearly and thoroughly answered every question we had, and we had a lot. She put us in touch with an incredible mortgage broker, the best sewer inspector in Portland (and told us to get a sewer inspection which was critical!) and inspector. She made the whole process completely stress free, really. We feel so lucky to have worked with Elise and can't recommend her enough.
Elise and Brit are amazing realtors! When we needed something to happen during the process, whether it was reaching out to the seller's realtor, learning the details of the house, negotiating a price or working on a Saturday after hours to close the deal (which happened with us), they were always there. There is nothing more important to us than responsiveness and that is what you'll get with this team. In addition, they have incredible market knowledge, experience in the industry and are just genuinely good people to be around. We would highly recommend Elise, Brit and their team to anyone looking for a new realtor.
Elise Loschiavo was my buyer's agent and she is awesome! Elise was on top on things all the way through the process. She was proactive, scheduling whatever needed to be done, getting documents to me in plenty of time, and made me feel like I was her only client. I had limited time to find a place to live, and Elise had places all lined up to view, so we found the right one the first day of looking. Elise was very quick in answering my many questions and was accessible. I would highly recommend having Elise represent you.
I thoroughly enjoyed working with Elise and Vitalius Real Estate on my recent purchase in Munjoy Hill. I'm a recent retiree planning to move back to my home state from Canada and needed to work with someone who knew the Portland area well and that I could trust. Elise fit the bill perfectly. My requirements were somewhat complicated and Elise worked with me to ensure all my needs were met. She made herself available, provided unique solutions when issues arose, knew the local players and market, always returned emails and calls, and drove my complex deal to closure, always exceeding my expectations.
In a word: excellence. Brit is one of those people who endeavor to be the best person possible, in an inclusive manner. He is not trying to be aEURoebetter than anyone elseaEUR?, rather, that aEURoetogether we can achieve great thingsaEUR?. It could have been any trade but his chosen field just happens to be real estate. Not consistently after the almighty buck, he will tell you walk away if a house is not a good deal financially or the space is not optimal for your needs. And yet he is able to turn on a dime when the situation dictates, which is the case with the housing market in Portland right now. There is no mystery as to why he has many repeat clients-we bought 13 years ago, sold two years ago and bought again last year-because contact is maintained on all sides. Elise, his associate broker, is a testament to his method. She keeps up with the ever shifting requirements to closure and is aware, as is Brit, of all the various ramifications to home ownership, particularly regarding multi-units and multiple properties. Why use anyone else?
Elise is hands down the best realtor we've ever worked with. My wife and I decided to move to the Portland, Maine area and when we reached out to a community website, we were put in touch with Elise. She is an incredible resource about the city and house hunting. When we put an offer together on a house in Windham (from Portland, OR) she guided us through the whole process. Buying a house from across the country could have been an overwhelming process but she kept us in the loop and made us feel like we were there the whole time. We were unable to be there for any of the necessary inspections, but she made sure she was available and got the results to us in a timely manner. We would definitely work with her again.
Brit and Elise are the go-to real estate team in Portland. I am now in my fourth transaction with Vitalius (2 multi-unit purchases, 1 multi-unit sale and a commercial lease deal) in 3 years and will never go anywhere else. Their knowledge of the market and connections within it are unparalleled. Portland is such a hot market that responsiveness and availability is incredibly important. Working with two agents who make you their priority means you are never waiting and wondering - someone will always be there. I saw and made an offer on my first house with Brit & Elise's team within 24 hours of it going on the market. I trust them with anything and feel like they both genuinely care and understand my needs. You will be guided through the whole process, getting fed with information without ever feeling like they are leading you astray or being salesy in any way. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for real estate of any kind!
Elise Loschiavo seriously is a saint. I wouldn't have survived out-of-state house hunting in Portland last Spring if she hadn't been there for me. As I was a first time home buyer I found myself pretty befuddled by the whole process but Elise was there every single step of the way and answered all of my questions -- no matter how silly -- and she did so with the utmost patience and clarity. I have a huge folder of saved emails to prove it :) In my opinion she goes above and beyond the call of duty. If you're looking for real estate in the area you absolutely should connect with her. She's the best!
Elise helped us buy our first home, and the process was very smooth. She did a great job making sure we took care of essential tasks on time and was very helpful with all of our scheduling needs. I would be happy to work with Elise again.
