Elizabeth Courtiér

Making Historic Preservation Your Business
Matchmaker Award

A historic property is almost never as vulnerable as when it is changing hands. Elizabeth Courtier of Willis Allen Real Estate works to educate the real estate community on the importance of historic preservation. She takes extraordinary steps to link the right buyers to the right house, taking into consideration the buyer's sensitivity to the historic property. While most realtors screen clients primarily for their financial qualifications, Elizabeth goes much further, and qualifies the client to see if they should be allowed to own a historic home. She has spoken publicly amongst much controversy about the benefits of purchasing a historic home, and is now restoring her own historic home to exacting standards.
