Melissa was amazing with helping us thru this home buying process. She kept us informed on everything during the process. And even helped us after closing. Truly a gem in this field.

Melissa is Excellent!!. She is a great agent. Insightful,responsive. Her professionalism in her field goes above and beyond the expected working relationship with a realtor. Her knowledge base helped us navigate the complex process in buying a home while simultaneously enabling us to avoid pitfalls and adverse situations that sometimes affect home buyers. I can say with certainty that we wouldn't have bought this house had it not been for mellissa.

My wife and I recently bought our first home and are very thankful to Melissa for her guidance throughout the process. In addition to being highly knowledgeable about the local market (the greater New Haven area), she was very friendly and patient with us throughout the process and helped us find the right home for our needs and budget. I would strongly recommend Melissa to anybody looking to work with a real estate professional in this area.

Melissa Lawson is highly recommended. I have worked with multiple realtors over the years, and while all have been good--Melissa really went the extra mile. For us, we were moving from California to Connecticut, but due to COVID and having young children, we were unable to visit in person. First, Melissa took the time to get to know us and our family through multiple phone conversations, so she understood what we wanted and what we felt we needed. Melissa further took the extra effort to video-show multiple homes for us and walked us through all aspects of the home, pointing out positives and potential negatives. All in all we worked with her for a good 10 months until we found the right house for us--including looking in multiple areas adjacent to her primary working area--and she was always helpful and willing to show more. She even volunteered to represent us at the closing. Melissa was very knowledgeable and would point out considerations we would not have thought to consider and was able to help guide us through all aspects of the process. She was careful not to tell us what to think, respecting that everyone has different preferences, but did point out aspects for us to consider in making our decisions. She also did not push us to buy the first house we saw or to purchase the most expensive houses. In sum, we found Melissa to be responsive, hard working, accommodating, and the perfect balance of tough and pleasant. We would use her again, but we love our home and won't be moving anytime soon.

I cannot thank Melissa Lawson and Stacy Milner enough for the excellent guidance and care they took in selling our longtime family home. From start to finish they not only went above and beyond to ensure I received the best price for my home, but they also understood the emotional impact this sale had on me and instinctively knew what to do. From the preparation to the listing to the offers to the closing, Stacy and Melissa showed they are the best of the best.

Melissa is simply excellent. I am an overly thorough and cautious buyer, and she handled me with class... My wife and I were working towards to purchasing our first home and initiated our search with Melissa. We were very ignorant to the home buying process and required a high level of education (a polite way of saying that we required some "hand holding"). Melissa was glad to walk us through everything, every step of the way. More impressively, she never pressured us in any form to purchase or settle on a house. She proved that by graciously being available for us anytime we contacted her about a house of interest, for YEARS. Every year, my wife and I would periodically check the market to see if we could find our "dream home". But, each year the timing or inventory was not right. Regardless, Melissa was there... on time, pleasant, not in a rush, honest... she was always available for us. Until, finally, we found the house we wanted to pursue. And again, Melissa was there, through the whole process, providing the high level of hand holding that we needed. I knew that I could always get in touch with her, and depend on her to communicate with the seller's party on my behalf. Purchasing a home was an extremely, intimidating prospect for me and my wife, which is why we are so grateful to have met Melissa. She went above and beyond for us, and that is exactly what my family needed to get through the rigors of purchasing a home as smoothly as possible. What's even better is that we gained a friend in the process. I highly recommend Melissa. She's certainly a gem.

Melissa is easy to work with. She works hard to schedule appointments. Always arrives with information to take with me about the properties. She is ready to do further research upon request. Thorough and professional. Highly recommend!

We have been through four residential real estate transactions with Melissa Lawson. We would never even consider using anyone else. Melissa is smart, professional, responsive and always on top of the market news and trends. Despite her tiny build (lol) she is force to reckon with - she is strong, direct, a master negotiator and doesn't' take nonsense from anyone. If you are buying or selling, I would strongly recommend having Melissa Lawson in your corner.

I can't honestly say enough about how amazing this process and experience was BECAUSE OF Melissa. She is not only a wonderful person, but became a true friend in a very short period of time. She asked great questions to fully understand what it was that my partner and I were looking for - and was so honest when we saw places that she didn't think were for us. She made us feel so at ease, which I can't thank her enough for. Melissa is also SO knowledgeable, too. I learned a ton, felt heard and guided, while never feeling sold to or pressured at all during the entire buying process. My mind is honestly still blown that I experienced buying a house with minimal stress. I owe all of that to Melissa. I will be recommending her to all of my friends and family.
