About Melanie Sutton

Real estate shouldn't be a battle--it should be a partnership. I'm not your typical agent. No sleazy sales tactics, no pressure, and definitely no fluff. Just straight-up, honest advice and a game plan that works. Selling your home or land can feel overwhelming, but with the right agent (one who actually listens and works with you, not against you), it doesn't have to be. With 17 years of experience and a deep understanding of market analytics, I don't just throw your property online and hope for the best--I create a customized strategy to get it in front of the right buyers and get you top dollar. You deserve an agent who respects that this isn't just a transaction; it's one of your biggest assets. I get that. Let's skip the sales pitch--I'll stop by, no pressure, and we can talk about your real estate goals. My job isn't just selling property; it's building relationships that last long after the deal is done. If that sounds like the kind of agent you want on your side, let's connect.

With a bold, no-nonsense approach and a deep passion for helping people find their perfect property, I bring a unique mix of expertise, authenticity, and dedication to every transaction. Whether you're buying, selling, or investing, I'm here to guide you through the process with confidence and clarity. Having recently relocated to Guntersville, Alabama, I understand firsthand the excitement and challenges of making a move. My ability to connect with clients, combined with years of real estate experience, ensures that I go beyond just finding you a house--I help you find a place to call home. When I'm not working hard for my clients, you'll find me enjoying the outdoors, fishing, or spending quality time with my family. I believe in looking forward, not back, and keeping my focus on a future filled with success--for myself and the people I serve. Let's make your real estate goals a reality. Contact me today!

Team Shepherd and Franco are the best!! We were well taken care of the entire time. Communication was consistent and they were always 100% honest and open with us. We were moving from downstate, which made in-person tours difficult at times. The videos that Melanie and Frank made for us were went way above and beyond our expectations. They described every detail for us and gave information about the location, etc. Would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a real estate agent! Beyond being great at their job, they are both extremely personable and caring. That really makes all the difference in a difficult buying market. https://g.co/kgs/ERxPa9

Melanie review: When it came to home-buying, my other half and I were clueless, two stray cats would have had more knowledge than we did. Melanie was so patient with us and never made us feel dumb no matter how elementary our questions were, or how many times she had to answer the same question. She was also a fighter for us, pushing processes along when things were going too slow. She was able to find us a house that dropped in price and scheduled a viewing the same day, and she walked us through each step from putting in the offer to the final signing. We also loved that we could have Zoom chats/meeting with her, that was very helpful since we were located a few hours away. However my favorite thing about Melanie was the fact that she was working to find us our home, not just make a sale. If we were looking at house that she saw issues with she would always point out the issue and explain why that home wouldnt be a good investment. When we did find a good home, I could trust Melanies knowledge and opinion that the house is a good one. Overall Melanie made the whole home-buying experience easy and as stress-free as possible! I would recommend her to anyone, but especially first time buyers!

Frank was fast to reply, professional and easy to work with. He is knowledgeable about the area. The closing was done all online which was nice since we live over three hours away.
