Saving You Time & Money

There are constantly changing laws, ethical practices and practical considerations that you don't want to learn on your own through trial and error or relying on a book or information off the internet. It's just not worth the risk or liability. The National Association of Realtors reports that 89% of sellers were assisted by a real estate agent when selling their home. Your home is the biggest asset you will ever sell. It's important you do it right!

Testimonials
"We first started working with Melissa in 2016. She helped us sell our townhome. She gave us wonderful advice on what needed to be done to prepare to sell and how to price our home based on the market. We received a full price offer within the first 24 hours of being on the market! Melisa also held our hands as we went through the process of building our dream home. She came to our design meeting and helped us make smart choices for our new home. A few short years later, we decided to move to be closer to family in another state. Melissa was our first call! The advice she had given us while building the home and her wealth of knowledge all lead to another quick, full price offer. Melissa took the time to really build a relationship with our family and continued to remain in touch over the years. She continues to be in touch and wish us well on our new adventure. (Her Christmas card was the first one we got in the mail this year!) "
