Melissa is an amazing person and the best realtor! She makes buying or selling your home as easy as possible. Her drive and work ethic are stellar. She makes the experience personal while making sure everything is professional. You can tell she truly enjoys what she is doing. Melissa loves helping people, this is evident in her job and various volunteering platforms, she is a part of. I am thankful for her kindness, honesty, and genuine spirit.
