About Robin

My name is Robin Gelfius. My email address is: robingelfius@remax.net. I live in Mt. Vernon, IL.

I have an outstanding work ethic and believe wholeheartedly in the REALTORĀ® Code of Ethics. I will be focused on you and your needs, not you and the opposite party! The buyer and seller need their own advocate in the buying and selling process. Just as you wouldn't hire an attorney to represent both parties, the same applies to real estate.

My son, Cole, is 27 and on active duty in the Air National Guard. He is an Instructor Boom Operator air-refueling airplanes. My beautiful daughter, Claire, 13, passed away in February 2016.

I am originally from Pittsburgh, PA, but moved frequently, attending 9 schools in 12 years! After high school, I worked at Disney World until joining the Air Force as a Security Policeman.

After the Air Force, I graduated from UNC/Asheville with a B.S. degree in Business. While there, I was an extra in the movie Dirty Dancing! :)

In 1990, I became a manager at The Grove Park Inn in Asheville, NC., responsible for all guest relations departments. My focus was on excellent customer service. I also taught computer classes at a community college in Asheville.

After four years at the hotel, I was offered the position of East Coast Customer Service Manager and Traffic Manager for Gerber Baby Foods. To familiarize myself with the trucking end of the business, I enrolled in tractor/trailer driving school and earned my CDL.

I married in 1996 and had two children. I stayed home for 20 years homeschooling both of my children. After my daughter passed away, I decided to pursue another career. Considering my strengths and personality, I decided on a real estate career. Then in June 2018, my real estate partner and I purchased RE/MAX Elite in Mt. Vernon, IL.
I now want to focus my attention on working solely with buyers and sellers, so I no longer own and manage a brokerage. I look forward to helping you through the process! Robin

Robin is the best agent in town! She helped me understand the home buying process so much better. She referred me to a great local lender. I would definitely recommend her if you’re looking to buy a home or sell one!
