Ely Babb


Ely won the 2021 Zenith Award with Zolo Realty for being the top agent in Ottawa. Buying a home is more than just a big investment, it is also a life decision that you want to be comfortable with for many years to come. Ely Babb was born and raised in Ottawa and knows the city very well.

If buying, not only will Ely help you choose the right house to call home, she will also locate the right neighbourhood for you and your family to grow and enjoy. On selling, Ely will identify and promote all the attributes of your home and neighbourhood.


After completing the two year Photography Program at Algonquin College, Ely began her career as a professional photographer. The competitive environment of photography taught Ely about the benefits of providing passionate client service by understanding the client's interest and concerns. As a freelance photographer, Ely was photographing many of the property listings in Ottawa for other real estate agents in the city. To supplement her income and before committing to become a REALTOR®, she worked as a real estate assistant, resolving and handling all aspects of administration in a real estate office. This, combined with Ely's determination for success, was the driving factors for her to acquire a real estate license.


Ely will bring this same drive and determination to selling your property and/or buying your next home. When Ely views a property, she applies her eye and attention for detail to not just photograph a home (at its best angle), but she'll also observe those small details in the home that can be highlighted to make your property all the more appealing. This same eye for detail will also benefit you when buying a home.


Given Ely's education in graphic design and her current knowledge of social media, you can be sure that she will promote your property on the most noticeable of sites, using high tech marketing techniques, or she'll find that home you've been searching for! Whether buying or selling, give Ely a call. You will be glad you did.
