Melissa pulled off a real estate miracle for us at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. We were not planning on selling our home, but we happened to come across a house that was coming on the market that we fell in love with. We made an offer on it and it was accepted. And without any prelisting preparations, we listed our house the next day. Within 24 hours we had 3 offers and the one we accepted wanted a 30 day closing (which is hectic in ideal market conditions). The week prior to settlement, the government started to shut down non-essential businesses. Melissa reassured us that everything would be fine...and it was. We closed on both houses as planned and everything could not have went more smoothly in such uncertain times. We highly recommend Melissa and her team!
Simply put Melissa is the best realtor we have heard of or come across. We could not have even imagined a better experience in buying our house. At every step of the process, Melissa guided us and always had our best interest in her mind. From understanding what our needs were to our concerns, she had it covered and put us at ease. It would be very fair to say that we would not have our dream house so quickly in this seller's market had it not been for Melissa. We have an equally great experience selling our old house as well. In spite of tight timeline she managed to get it up on the market quickly and succeeded in getting us multiple offers within a couple of days of being listed. We would recommend Melissa in a heartbeat.
We have bought and sold more than a few homes in the past and Melissa is the best we have worked with! She is proactive, responsive, extremely effective and a joy to work with! Melissa is nothing short of amazing . She always keeps the buyers and sellers best interest at heart and will go above and beyond to serve her clients.

I could not have asked for more caring, thoughtful realtor to help me sell my home. She knew that I had three children in the house, she went over and beyond my expectations. She also manage to sell my house within 24 hours of it being listed. Talk about an amazing realtor.
Melissa was a god send to my husband and I during the whole process of being first time home buyers. She was on top of everything and always available.
