About Me

Tom, a graduate of the University of Northern Colorado and Valerie, a graduate of Baylor University, both grew up on farms and ranches in Colorado. Patriotic to the core, Tom joined the United States Navy and was stationed in Rota, Spain.  It could be said that “Team Waitley” actually started when they married in 1992 and Valerie joined Tom overseas.  After some time as business owners on the West Coast, Tom and Valerie couldn’t wait to bring their beautiful daughters back to the southern grace of Texas and they now call the Waco area their forever home.  Through the negotiation, purchase and sale of multiple properties, both residential and agricultural,  “Team Waitley” has gathered experience and skills, both personally and professionally, as diverse as the great state of Texas.  Whether you are looking for the perfect home in town, need to relocate your family to Waco from across the country, are looking for long-term investments, or dream of the seemingly simple farm life, “Team Waitley” is excited to share their vast and unique experience to help their clients through the process.

Our Office Listings

We started the process of buying a home on December 2018 and quickly realized that it was going to be a little trickier than we expected. Ellen proved to us that she was open to explore possibilities, to train herself into an innovative programs that could sound scary and that had actually scared off other realtors. Well, I can gladly tell you that we got all we wanted. We have been happily in our “new” home for some months now and it is in a big part due to working with her. All this to say that we totally recommend Ellen to anybody, her commitment, local knowledge, contract writing, attention to detail, negotiation skills (very, very important and often underrated, she impressed us on this regard too, improving the conditions of our buy/sell in any way should could), availability to work with you, adapt to our situation and sit down and learn new ways, goes far beyond any other real estate agent that we came across. Thank you Ellen! – Luis David Ferro
