The best part of our entire experience was that he sold our house on the day it went on the market for more than the asking price. We can't thank you enough for providing this valuable service.

Work With the Best Real Estate Agents in Your Area
When buying or selling a house, you want a real estate agent who negotiates the best deal and treats you as their most important client. That’s what you get when you choose one of our Endorsed Local Provider (ELP) real estate agents.
They Care About You More Than the Sale
Our agents inspire and serve their clients first. Getting to know you on a personal level allows them to give a solid recommendation to you and your family based on Ramsey's proven principles.
We Hold Them to High Standards
Our ELPs close on more homes than 90% of other agents in their area. You'd never build a home without a blueprint. So why blindly buy or sell one without the best agent?
Your Values Are Their Values Too
You're not getting suckered into a deal you don't want. Our ELPs value relationships over money, they're fans of Ramsey, and they know what role your home should play in your budget.
Our ELPs are RamseyTrusted.
That’s right—RamseyTrusted. And it’s a big deal. It means the agents in our Endorsed Local Providers (ELP) program are the only people trusted by real estate and financial expert Dave Ramsey and the Ramsey team. Why? Our agents faithfully serve our fans every day and care about doing what's right for you.

What is the RamseyTrusted Endorsed Local Providers (ELP) Real Estate Program?
The RamseyTrusted ELP program is a nationwide service connecting home buyers and sellers with the top 10% of real estate agents in their area. We only endorse trustworthy, high-caliber real estate agents who are well-respected in their communities. Through RamseyTrusted, you get instant (and free!) access to the right real estate professional for your family.
How did the RamseyTrusted program get started?
About 20 years ago radio host and CEO of Ramsey Solutions, Dave Ramsey, noticed listeners of The Ramsey Show struggling to find professional help from people who actually understood his financial teachings—which is pretty crucial when making life-changing money moves like buying or selling a house.
Out of that, he launched the Endorsed Local Providers program to connect listeners with financial and real estate professionals Ramsey trusts to provide excellent service and help you reach your financial goals. Today, it’s known as the RamseyTrusted Endorsed Local Providers program, but that’s still our mission to this very day.
How are RamseyTrusted ELP agents selected to be in the program?
Our agents go through a rigorous vetting process. After applying, potential pros go through a multi-step interview process. First, we make sure they meet these minimum qualifications:
-
They’re in the top 10% of their market or close at least 35 homes per year.
-
They have been in the industry for more than four years.
-
They work with both buyers and sellers in all types of markets.
-
They’re full-time, full-service—in other words, this isn’t some side gig.
Next, we verify that applicants share Ramsey values—meaning they are on mission to serve you, have the heart of a teacher, and agree to work with you according to our financial principles called the 7 Baby Steps. Keep in mind that only about 3% of new agents who applied to the program last year ended up making it in, so this isn’t a cakewalk.
To stay in the program, agents must ace our Ramsey Pro Training Course and receive ongoing one-on-one and group coaching from our dedicated team. In addition, agents are scored by their coaches three times per year according to how well they served you. That way, there is a system of checks and balances in place to ensure that only quality agents get to stay in the program.
How can you find your RamseyTrusted real estate agent?
Connecting with one of our trusted real estate ELPs is as simple as telling us about your real estate needs, sharing your contact info—and that’s it! Seriously. We’ll take it from there and you’ll hear back from an agent within minutes.
