I engaged Melissa prior to COVID-19 pandemic. We did not find the right house until after shut downs were in force. While maintaining compliance she did not miss a beat. We found d the right house and have engaged her again.

This is the second time we have used Melissa to sell our home. Nothing but good things to say, always responsive be phone, email or text. Willing to negotitate to suit our needs, not her own. She promoted our house in every way available to have a quick sell within just a few weeks!

Melissa exceeded my expectations. She always answered her phone, and is really knowledgeable. I told her what I liked and wanted she did not waste are time by showing me houses I did not want.. Melissa was not pushy at all and gave her honest opinion.

We did not know Melissa before the real estate transaction . We had gotten her name from an on air radio personality. She came to our home to do an evaluation for our possibly selling . We were impressed and when it became time to sell our much loved, but too large home we chose her.She used sales techniques we had never seen before. She narrated a walk through the house on YouTube . A drone flew over the property during peak fall colors. She had photos done at different times of the day and evening to show the house in different light. Because of her efforts (and a very active market) we had four offers in 6 days.
