Meet Emily Russell

Emily Russell

NYS Lic. Real Estate Salesperson

Whether you are a first-time home buyer searching for your dream home or a seller looking to downsize, working with a dedicated real estate professional can make all the difference! My name is Emily Russell and it would be my pleasure to work with you.

A bit about me… I grew up outside Ithaca, left to attend Penn State, and upon graduation moved to Philadelphia to work at The Ritz Carlton Hotel. After visiting home and going for a beautiful sail with friends on Seneca Lake I decided to move back to the area. I changed career paths and spent nearly ten years working in fundraising for institutions like Cornell, Ithaca College, and the SPCA of Tompkins County. I joined my mother’s business, The Frame Shop, in 2004 and eventually purchased it. Owning and operating a successful business, I possess a distinct set of skills that can be applied to real estate, such as exceptional customer service, adeptness at negotiating, and proficiency in multitasking. I’m organized, honest and continually advocate for my clients for their desired outcomes.

I have always valued giving back to my community and to that end have served on my local boards and committees including the Tompkins Chamber of Commerce, Community Arts Partnership, Elizabeth Ann Clune Montessori, and Hospicare’s Women Swimmin’, among others.

When I am not working, you will find me at the baseball field watching my son play for Ithaca High School. I enjoy spending time on Cayuga Lake, hiking our amazing gorges, and visiting our wonderful wineries, breweries, and restaurants.

If you are looking for a helpful partner who has the backing of the experienced Jill Burlington Team, I am the agent for you.

Emily was essential to my success in purchasing my first NY home. She was personable, very knowledgeable about local real estate and process and always went out of her way to make my experience smooth and flawless. I am so grateful for Emily.

Emily did an amazing job with helping us find the perfect home. When another realtor dropped the ball with getting us a showing on a property, Emily stepped up to the plate and hit a home run! Since accepting Emily as our realtor, she has proven herself not only an amazing realtor but also an amazing person. Emily has gone out of her way, both figuratively and literally to insure that everything was completed in a timely manner. She supplied information and contact info for well drilling and septic companies in the Broome County area. She assisted us in acquiring an attorney that worked well for us. She even went as far as to help us unload our moving truck. Simply put, Emily is the best!
