Ratings & Reviews

Rachel Reibling

Melissa was second to none in the buying process. To start I was an out of town buyer and had only been to the area once previously just for a few days. I found a home that was FSBO and Melissa seamlessly helped both sides through the process. Not only was she thoughtful and thorough she went above and beyond in making sure we could get what we wanted and enlisted the best inspection companies to be sure we were not walking into an unsafe home. Melissa made the entire process so seamless and with the amount of stress it was moving the 3rd time in 3 years she immediately alleviated the stress by taking charge in the sale. 10/10 would recommend Melissa in the purchase or sale of your home. Her knowledge, persistence, organization and leadership will help you on either side of the sale.

Melissa is hands down the best real estate agent we could have EVER asked for! We were a nervous wreck and had no idea what we were doing before Melissa. Considering this was our first time purchasing a home and being a military family living in Alaska. We have also never been to Louisiana and didn’t know anything about the area. Melissa walked us throughout the entire process, to include which school districts she recommends for our three children. She went as far as recommending the best home inspectors, lenders, and anything and everything we could have possibly needed. Even after our home was purchased and closed, she continues to check in on us and make make sure we have everything we need. She even made us a new home owner manual to help us navigate this new journey.
We never felt stranded or lost once Melissa was on board with us!

Melissa was absolutely the best possible agent I could’ve worked with. I started working with her months in advance ahead of my PCS. She worked tirelessly and went above and beyond anything I could’ve ever expected to help find the perfect home for my family. She kindly did video walk throughs and made sure all my questions were answered as I was not stationed here yet which proves she understands the extra needs for Military clients have. She was on my side and weathered the storm when things got rough, and I had to switch directions but that didn’t stop her. She was determined to find a home that fit what I was looking for. She truly cares deeply about her clients. I am so grateful for her help, hard work, and friendship!

Melissa Forney has been a complete joy to work with in selling my MnL’s house. She obviously cares about her clients every step of the way. If you need a realtor you should definitely give her a call!!

Chase Miller

Was fortunate enough to find Melissa to help my wife and I find our home in the Bossier / Shreveport area. She was professional, quick to respond and understanding of the home we were trying to find. Within a few conversations she had 6 homes ready for us to tour. She always arrived first to the home and was quick to identify pros and cons to the home which made the buying process smooth and transparent. Melissa was such a huge help for my family. I would recommend her to anyone needing a knowledgeable relator.
