What do Clients Say?

Highly likely to recommend | 5.0 Report a problem 03/12/2020 - kwikfut Bought a home in 2020 in Crossroads, Bellevue, WA 98005. Local knowledge Process expertise Responsiveness Negotiation skills Wow. I can't say enough good things about Melanie. I came into the process completely new with no prior experience as a first-time homebuyer. Melanie had been referred to me by a friend and right from the get-go, she explained how things could go. I was in a tight position with my lease up at the end of the month and looking for a place. It won't be too far off to say the process can be overwhelming without someone like Melanie to help one out. The first home we looked at, Melanie immediately told me, "We can do better." I wasn't sure as the market in the Seattle Eastside area is quite competitive. As things went along, I was a bit jaded in getting outbid on a couple of prospective homes I had a strong interest in. Melanie still had an excellent sense of how things could go and encouraged me not to lose heart. The very next day, Melanie sent me details on a home that had just gone to market. It wasn't even on my radar based on the criteria I had in mind. She encouraged me to just take a look. The moment I walked in, I felt right at home. We immediately made an offer. In less than three weeks, I had the keys in my hand. I feel emotional just writing this. I finally had my first home. I can't express how helpful Melanie was in guiding me through this process and what it means to me. There is a lot more to the process than I am detailing here, from finding an appropriate lender, to getting all the financial documents, to inspections, etc. I am truly, truly grateful to have had Melanie on my team and recommend her highly and without reservation.

We have used Melanie on multiple transactions as well as referring her to friends and family. There are not enough words to describe how amazing this gal is. She is the only realtor I know who hears compliments time and again from both sides of the transaction. Everyone loves working with her. She brings to the table years of experience, master negotiating skills, in-depth knowledge of the industry, and impeccable style above all else! We can't recommend her enough and we will continue to use her for all our real estate needs.

Melanie represented me in the sale of my shared waterfront home and the purchase of my condo on Alki. I needed the proceeds from the sale to purchase the new property. I found the new property prior to having my home under contract and the seller was unwilling to take a contingent offer. She managed to keep things in play until my home was under contract and we were able to make it all work out. I moved into my new place just days after my old place closed. Without a contingent offer!! Melanie handled the transactions with finesse and just the right amount of elbow grease to make it all work. I would definitely recommend for any real estate transaction!

My husband and I recently relocated to Washington from California and we met Melanie at an open house. From the moment we spoke I was very impressed with her. From our initial interaction moving forward, she never let us down. She was extremely helpful in offering up areas unknown to us, showing us homes, as well as answering questions and offering her feedback. Melanie's follow up and customer service is impeccable! She was there at the drop of a hat to show us homes and do previews for homes we were interested in. When we finally found our home, Melanie went to work. She was superb in her dealings with our builder and again, never waivered from the professionalism we experienced during our search!

We had to see many units on our short trip to Seattle from Chicago, and Mellanie showed great many variety patiently, which was very helpful for us to get a good sense of the area and the market.
