Ratings & Reviews

Melissa Yates was a pleasure to work with. She was knowledgeable of the local market and advised us appropriately on the price, staging and photos. She was able to negotiate effectively to make the selling process and ease for my wife and I. She handled it all, and explain the process every step of the way. If you are looking for an agent that has your best interest at heart, call Melissa Yates.

Melissa did a great job for my husband and myself in finding a great location and home to fit our needs. Did all of this while we were out of state. Can’t go wrong with trusting your journey with Melissa.
