Gather 'round, because I've got a tale to tell about the one and only, the real estate extraordinaire - Melissa! Cue confetti and jazz hands! So, picture this: I was just a regular homeowner, minding my own business, when suddenly, I HAD to sell my house. But oh boy, was I clueless! The mere thought of navigating the labyrinth of real estate was enough to give me goosebumps and butterflies all at once.

And then, like a shining beacon of light, enters Melissa - my very own superhero in a snazzy real estate cape! From the moment I met her, I knew this was going to be an unforgettable experience.

Whenever I felt overwhelmed or anxiety started creeping in, she was there with a smile and a reassuring word. It was like having a real estate therapist on speed dial!

In the end, thanks to Melissa's superhero powers and her never-ending well of positivity, we managed to sell my house at a great price.

Melissa was absolutely phenomenal with the sale of my house. She was responsive and walked me through every step. With her efforts, my house sold quicker and for more money than I hoped for. I'd 100% recommend her and, if I move back to the area, I hope to work with her again.

My husband and I were new to the process of purchasing a home since we've never moved before. We were lucky to have met Melissa. In our case, we purchased new construction and experienced a bumpy process. Right from the start, we were Melissa's main concern and she spoke in our behalf to ensure thorough walk-throughs and achieved punch lists. She was always professional, and it was because of Melissa, working with our dedicated builder that we purchased a beautiful new home we are thrilled with beyond our dreams. In addition, we appreciated her guidance during closing. She pointed out interim taxes included in settlement costs and what to expect with forth-coming tax bills and other fees as well. We are now looking forward to her guidance in selling our current home, and I can't imagine going this route without her. Without a doubt, I would highly recommend Melissa Collins to anyone making a real estate venture. They will experience consistent satisfaction and a successful journey beyond their expectations.

Melissa is very knowledgeable and was able to get us a great deal in such a tough market, we highly recommend her and will be using her for all our future home buying!
Took me a year to write this review and I still can?t say enough about how happy I am about my home and the service I received from Melissa. She?s an awesome realtor and she helped me navigate buying process as a first time time buyer with patience. She guided me and educated me along the way until I found my home. She?s very knowledgeable and I couldn?t be happier about my choice.
We worked with Melissa for about 6 months through the pandemic and shutdowns, and I can honestly say she could not have done a better job at making such a bumpy year go so smooth for us.She went to over a dozen homes with us before we found the perfect one; needless to say she is very patient and understanding, especially for first-time home buyers such as ourselves.We love our new home and would absolutely recommend her to anyone I know who is looking for a new home!
We had such a great experience working with Melissa. We were new to the area and Melissa really helped us to see a variety of neighborhoods and knew the pros and cons of each one. She really worked to learn what exactly we were looking for. She was always quick to respond when we had questions or concerns about a property. Through multiple offers, negotiations, and even the pandemic, we were always thankful to have Melissa?s help and knowledge in the home buying process. In the end, we found a beautiful home in a perfect neighborhood. Melissa led us through negotiations, inspections, and settlement with confidence, and we couldn?t be happier. We would highly recommend working with Melissa Collins!
Melissa is by far the best realtor I have ever dealt with. She put my families needs first and worked extremely hard to find a good home for us. We truly appreciate her professionalism and knowledge of absolutely everything. If she didnt know the answer she found out right away and stayed in track with everything and stayed with us all the way to the end. Thank you so much again Melissa for all you have done for my family your awesome
This was my first home purchase and I didn?t realize how much I didn?t know about the home buy process. Melissa walked me through step by step what to do and gave advice and education on every topic. She kept me in the loop the entire time and when things got rocky on the process she stepped in and fix everything and it worked out! Very thankful I met her and she helped me through the process!!
Melissa was great! She was knowledgeable about all parts of real estate even knowledge on home maintenance. Not only was Melissa extremely professional and easy to reach, she also was personable and easy to talk to.
Melissa has been fantastic through this entire journey. We are/were first time home buyers and met with her over a year ago to start learning the ins and outs. She has been with us through it all, gave us a few months break when we got overwhelmed, and after almost a year and a half of on and off searching, guided us to a great first home. She helped us deal with the worst seller ever and was just so calm and honest in everything. If you are looking for a realtor who is not going to pressure you to jump, or buy something outside of your comfort zone, then give her a call! She taught us about the prices to look at and how to asses what our comfort zone even was. It was a non-pressure buy, considering this is the largest purchase you can make, she made it feel pretty straight forward. And the team she has around her for lendors, inspectors, and such, were all phenomenal. I cannot express enough how grateful we are to have found her by chance on Zillow!
We have known Melissa for 3 years. She helped us find a rental, kept in touch with us about the housing market and stayed with us through the house buying process. She?s kind, helpful, knowledgeable, accessible and encouraging. I?m so thankful we had her through the process and would recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone looking to buy. We are so thankful for her!
Im a first time homeowner, so I was kind of intimidated by this whole process. Melissa was fantastic and answered all of my questions in the best possible way. She was really invaluable throughout the whole process, and couldnt possibly have been friendlier or more fun.
Melissa helped us with the purchase of our new home and the sale of the house we were leaving. She was professional and quite knowledgeable throughout the entire process. She assisted us with a few hurdles we encountered and assured us all would be well. She was available day or night and never got aggravated with our questions or concerns. If we were to move again, ( not happening) we would not hesitate to contact her again. Melissa is aces in our book!
I cant say enough good things about Melissa. From the very first day she took the time to get to know my husband and myself to find out what we were looking for in a home. She was able to get an answer for every question we had and was so easy to work with through all of our wants and needs. We are new to PA and it was nice to have someone who was knowledgeable and kind in our corner to get us through one of the biggest purchases of our lives.
Melissa was wonderful to work with! She responded quickly to our questions and was extremely knowledgeable. The buying process went smoothly because of her expertise.
Melissa very patiently and thoroughly walked us through the home buying process, as first-time home buyers. She worked diligently, responded in a timely manner and answered our questions before we could even ask them, always on the ball. Melissa helped us find and purchase our dream home, making the process seemless and easy. Would not have been possible without her.
My experience with Melissa has been nothing short of spectacular. Despite being first time home buyers and dealing with difficult sellers Melissa made the process of buying a home as simple as possible. I had no concerns that everything was done correctly. She is a highly ethical and knowledgeable individual who will go to bat for her clients 100%. If you want to buy/sell a home and want an individual who will actually care about what she is doing and not just be all about the money this is your person. Thank you Melissa!
We feel so lucky to have bumped into Melissa at a random open house. Working with her to purchase our first home was absolutely wonderful. We could not have asked for more. Melissa took the time to really listen to what we were looking for in our first home. She was very flexible and worked around our schedules, often making last minute appointments as houses would come up. She was knowledgeable about every step of the transaction and had everything organized so we did not have to worry about anything going wrong at closing. She was also very supportive through all of the ups and downs of finding the right home. I have already recommended her to friends and would continue to do so without hesitation!
Working with Melissa Collins for my first purchase was delightful. She worked with me on my schedule, so I knew Melissa cared for my purchase. I felt informed and supported throughout the entire process. She has also been tremendously helpful with advice anytime Ive contacted her. Buying a home is a serious venture and I without no doubt will be going with Melissa, when its time for the next move.
I would highly recommend Melissa Collins if you are in need of a realtor. In fact Ive already referred some friends to her. She is very knowledgeable and versed in real estate. She walked me through each step and never left my side. She was able answer all my questions without hesitation. She renewed my faith that there are good agents out there. She however is not just good, she is EXCELLENT!!!! Thank you Melissa!
Extremely knowledgeable and walked us thru every step, made our home buying truly enjoyable and flawless!! I would recommend everyone looking to buy a home to contact Melissa!
Melissa was a great help in our transaction, going above and beyond on several occasions. She took time to understand what we were looking for and continuously offered additional options as they became available. Once we selected a property, she briefed us on what to expect and assisted with every decision. She always had a wealth of well qualified resources to offer for financing, inspections, etc. She closed out the transaction as strongly as she started it, making several recommendations to help save us money and more completely understand the settlement paperwork.We give Melissa our highest recommendation . . . she exceeded expectations at every opportunity.
Melissa is the ***ABSOLUTE GREATEST*** and I would recommend her to anyone who needs to buy or sell a house. TEN STARS!! (Five is not enough) My Story: I was a first time homebuyer who started shopping for a house in the Spring of 2015. I had heard horror stories from my friends about their realtor experiences, so I was worried about finding a good real estate agent. After meeting dozens of agents, I finally picked Melissa because she was genuine, personable, intelligent, motivated, and very pro-active. Thank God I found her. Without Melissa my experience would have been a disaster. She was always on top of the paperwork, and kept me informed at every single point in the process. She ALWAYS knew what was going on at any given moment. People who have bad agents, like some of my friends did, wind up losing thousands of dollars because the agents miss deadlines. Some agents are lazy, some do not care, and some are just bad. This will never happen with Melissa. She will always keep you one step ahead of the contract, which is mind boggling considering how complicated the whole process is: offers, counter offers, inspectors, testers, appraisers, lenders, and on and on. I must also admit that I was not the best customer. I was picky, I was on a tight budget, and I asked to visit nearly every house on the market in my price range. I was probably the most annoying home buyer she had in 2015. Yet Melissa was always positive and upbeat, and never, ever, made me feel like a burden. She was always enthusiastic about my plan, and willing to go to the ends of the earth to make it happen. I cannot believe how much work she put into helping me find the right house, and how great it was to work with her. Not only that, but her expertise saved me hundreds of hours of wasted time visiting houses she knew I wouldn?t like, because she knew precisely the types of things that I cared and did not care about in a home. Finally, after months of home tours, open houses, inspections, and appraisals, I found MY perfect house. Melissa helped me negotiate the offer and counter offer, and I got the right price. And then, just when I thought I was going to close on my new home ? disaster struck. There was a huge problem with my bank approving the mortgage (which had nothing to do with Melissa, it was 100% a banking problem). The lender was supposed to close the loan in 60 days, but they dragged their feet and wound up taking twice as long. While I was scrambling around trying to fix the mortgage paperwork, Melissa helped me keep my sanity. Her calm demeanor helped keep me focused on solving the problem. Issue after issue kept popping up with my lender, and every time Melissa had creative and innovative solutions. It?s only because of Melissa was I able to buy my first home. I would have wasted thousands of dollars if not for her, and given up my dream of home ownership. She was the absolute best, and when I?m ready to buy my next home she will be the first person I call. You will not find a better home buying agent in the entire country.
Working with Melissa was an easy and stress free experience. As a first time home buyer, having Melissa walk me through each step of the process and explain exactly what was going on was a phenomenal help. During my search, she found me exactly what I was looking for, in the neighborhood I wanted and within my price range. Melissa kept me constantly informed throughout the process and was always available to answer any questions or concerns. Additionally, she was able to work with my busy schedule and meet when & where it was convenient for me. I would work with Melissa again and she comes highly recomened to anyone looking for a realtor in the Philadelphia area.
Melissa was awesome! In August she helped us buy a really great home. She was on top of all aspects of the tricky transactions at all times. Without her help to navigate the process, I dont know that we would have been able to get this house. She was always easy to contact, and quickly followed up on every issue as needed. There were many! It was our decision to buy, before we sold our first house. Of course we would contact Melissa again. When we were ready to list the old house she got to work immediately! Melissa provided great suggestions about getting the house ready for sale and we took her advice. We settled for a comfortable price in about 3 months.
Melissa was particularly helpful in purchasing a home that I was not able to see myself ! That takes a lot of trust and she made so simple for me. She handle all the negotiations for me and made document signing easy using an electronic service. Process was seamless.
I had the privilege of having Melissa Collins as my realtor. Selling and buying a house is a very emotional experience in general. In my case, I had raised my children in the house I was selling and had lived there for 24 years. Any time I felt anxiety overwhelming me, Melissa was always my calming voice. I was amazed at Melissas work ethic. She worked tirelessly marketing my house. Melissa didnt just stick her sign on my lawn and sit back and wait for potential buyers. She also helped me find a new home. She was always available for my many, many questions. When you are selling your home, ultimately the decisions are yours, but Melissa was able to give me the information I needed to make the best decisions for me.
