What do Clients Say?

Melia does not stop working for her clients. No matter the time or the day, she was always looking for houses I had an interest in and always kept me informed if any houses were about to hit the market I would be interested in. If you want an agent who will fight for you and search for houses 24/7, Melia is the agent you want!!

Unbelievable service, knowledge, care, and representation. I would highly recommend Melia and her team to anyone looking for a quality realtor that is going to make the process a smooth, and make sure you are taken care of throughout the process. If I could give a higher rating I would. My experience with her and her team was truly phenomenal.

AMAZING!! I have worked with Melia on two separate occasions. The first time selling a house, and then again buying a house. From the get go Melia was honest and upfront. She is a go-getter who will go out of her way to take care of your needs, but more importantly, she will always have your best interest at heart. The staff are also highly professional, checking in on a regular basis to see if you need help with anything. I highly recommend Melia Realty and will continue to use for all future real estate needs!!

Melia took my home under her wing and simply took charge guiding me through the process. Suggested a few updates and then offered quick resolution to get them done. She takes all the stress off the property owner and makes it her responsibility. Melia uses all the latest social media and professional networking to get your listing out to as many people as possible. It was amazing to work with Melia, I would recommend her highly. In fact she just sold a home for my son this past spring, again making his experience stress free and easy.
