Ratings & Reviews

Patsy

Melissa was knowledgeable, thorough and represented as well. She was a great guide and what was unknown territory for us. So grateful for her help and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a well trained and trust worthy agent!

Douglas

Excellent Realtor, pays attention to details and will always have your back. She will make you feel you are in good hands when you lived with her. Gets things done, and we’ll go beyond the call of duty to help serve her clients.

April

Melissa was a great agent to work with. She went above and beyond showing us houses and working diligently to get us into our new home. We’d work with Melissa time and time again.

Jennifer

Melissa is amazing and someone you want on your side! We listed our home and had tons of showings. It was under contract in 12 hours!! She helped make the process easier and was always available for any questions or concerns! I highly recommend using Melissa Yates for your home selling or buying needs! We are now on the search to buy land, and she is also assisting us on that purchase.
