About Melissa Grady

Broker/PartnerThe Real Estate Group (20 years experience) Specialties Buyer's agent Listing agent Relocation Staging Landlord I LOVE Real Estate! Period. I come from an entire family of real estate salespeople and my parents, Pat and Betty Grady, owned and operated our family firm, Grady Realtors Inc. since 1969. It's in my blood! I grew up showing houses with my parents and listening in on appointments! I went to college to become an art teacher, got my degree and began teaching high school art for four years right out of college. I decided to take the real estate course and get my license to work part time after school hours and in the summers. After two years of working both jobs, I left teaching to pursue my career in real estate full time! Luckily, I have been able to use my creative mind every day since leaving teaching art. I have always been very active in community service volunteering time and also received a Community Service Award nominated by my peers of the Capitol Area Realtors. I have most recently served on the Board of Directors for the Springfield Old Capitol Art Fair, Springfield Art Association, Vachel Lindsay Association Board of Directors, the St. Patrick's Day Parade Board, the Junior League of Springfield, and was VIP for the United Cerebral Palsy and Muscular Dystrophy Association, and a regular volunteer for Christ The King School. I also was one of Springfield's first accredited staging professionals and I will always work closely with sellers to stage their home for a fast and prosperous sale! Moving is STRESSFUL!!! Each time I have moved I have grown a whole new appreciation for the hard work behind getting ready for the market to sell, and finding a home that is perfect for my family! I empathize in the stress that goes on behind the scenes! You may be selling your first home you brought babies home to, maybe you are upgrading to a bigger home, maybe you are selling your last home or even your parents home, a job relocation, family tragedy, financial reasons, the list goes on and on why we move. So... how about a no nonsense aggressive agent with a heart? I want to take some of the stress off your worry list! I feel a tremendous amount of responsibility to my sellers and buyers and I am committed to hard work and dedication every step of the way! This is a team effort and I am committed to cross the finish line with you!!!

working with allix was fantastic! she was knowledgeable of the many different areas we went to and patient with my husbands constant texts and emails (he is VERY detail oriented). she is relaxing and be around with a great disposition! i will say this all-in caps SHE KNEW WHAT WE WANTED BETTER THAN WE DID! the house that we ended up buying was not one that i was particularly interested in. i know now that if i had never seen it in person that i would have truly missed out on my dream home. thank you allix!! allix helped us negotiate a price below asking and my husband and i could not be happier. thank you allix for making our retirement dreams come through.

Jennifer did a great job. She has a great eye and tells you like it is. She understands the atmosphere of the housing market . The whole process took about 6 weeks.

When it comes to buy property. It is a big investment.We need to find reliable person to work with. Jackie is an honest person, quick to respond, and very helpful. We looked at a property in Springfield, and she gave us honest feedback on what we should be aware of as first-time homebuyers. If anyone is looking to buy property in the Springfield area, Jackie is the person you should work with.

I had the pleasure of working with Jennifer to find the house of my dreams, and I can confidently say that she exceeded all expectations. From the very beginning, Jennifer demonstrated an exceptional level of professionalism and dedication. She took the time to really understand my needs and preferences, helping me narrow down the options that best suited my lifestyle and goals. What truly stood out to me was her constant availability. No matter the time or day, Jennifer was always ready to answer my questions, provide valuable advice, and offer support when needed. She made the entire process feel seamless and stress-free, which I greatly appreciated, especially given how overwhelming the home-buying process can be. Beyond her expertise and responsiveness, Jennifer's friendly and approachable demeanor made working with her an absolute pleasure. She has a rare ability to balance professionalism with a genuine, caring attitude, which made me feel confident and comfortable throughout every step of the journey. Whether youre a first-time homebuyer or looking to make a move, I highly recommend Jennifer. Her knowledge, work ethic, and personal touch made all the difference in finding the perfect home for me. I'm so grateful for her hard work and couldnt be happier with the results. Thank you, Jennifer, for helping make my dream home a reality!
