On behalf of both Derik and myself, we want to extend our heartfelt thanks for your outstanding work in managing the sale of our property. From start to finish, the entire process was crisp, well-organized, and as smooth as we could have hoped.
Your professionalism, responsiveness, and results-driven approach were evident every step of the way. We especially appreciated your patience and understanding of our unique situation—navigating the sale of a family-owned and occupied duplex while also managing the complexities of the rental property. When unexpected challenges arose, as they inevitably do with any plan, you demonstrated remarkable adaptability and provided swift, effective solutions to keep everything moving forward. Your resolve and resourcefulness made all the difference in ensuring the process remained on track. We’re truly grateful for your expertise and dedication. Thank you for making this significant transition feel seamless for all involved and for achieving such a great outcome.

"It was our pleasure to work with Melissa and Jake on the sale of our house. Having lived in our home for thirty years, the prospect of preparing it for sale seemed daunting. However, Melissa and Jake were up for the challenge. Their support was invaluable; whatever we needed, they had a contact or recommendation ready. What could have been a stressful time instead turned into a seamless transition to a new stage of our lives. We were continuously impressed by their energy, good humor, responsiveness, and extensive knowledge of the real estate market. We cannot say enough good things about the marketing of our house. From the onset, we were blown away by the quality of the pictures, videos, and other promotional materials. Melissa and her team delivered on their promises. We felt from day one that we were in good hands, and we were not disappointed. We highly recommend Melissa and her team. Their professionalism, dedication, and expertise made all the difference in our successful home sale."

"Melissa Mayer’s unmatched ability, dedication, and drive as your agent will
blow away all expectations you could imagine for a realtor. You have a
decisive advantage in the complicated real estate process when you have
Melissa and her team at your service.
We were crammed with our three children in our prior house that needed some
improvements to sell. It seemed overwhelming to even think about moving.
Melissa’s expert guidance got us into a stunning house and ideal
neighborhood, while astonishingly exceeding estimates on the sale of our
prior home. Melissa’s expertise and creativity were critical to us
purchasing our new house, which was had an ultra-competitive bidding
process. She worked with us to craft the perfect offer to obtain this
amazing house in the neighborhood we had been trying to get into for years.
I couldn’t imagine us accomplishing so much with any other agent.
Melissa always has a plan, is impressively forward-thinking, and is
ultra-responsive. We were amazed by the service from Cross Country Mortgage
and Mahoney Law Group. Nancy, Melissa’s go-to stager, added unmeasurable
value with her guidance and work. Nancy’s vision involved making only the
highest return investments in our house, and her transformational staging
of our house received countless compliments from potential buyers and our
neighbors. We were floored by the quantity and quality of the offers we
received.
Melissa’s agency, Compass Real Estate, provides 21st-century real estate
services that redefine the home buying process. Compass’s modern technical
offering made document signing and communication effortless. We were very
pleased with Compass’s Concierge no interest credit program. The Concierge
program was very easy to use and provided us with much-needed cash relief
for making critical home improvements prior to selling.
Looking around this astonishing new home of ours, we still can’t believe
how we pulled all this off. Melissa Mayer will meet you and establish a
vision for you to meet your needs. Her limitless drive, intelligence, and
experience will deliver you to your goal better than any agent you will
come across. We strongly recommend using Melissa Mayer as your real estate
agent.

"If you want to sell your house, Melissa is the agent for you. From start to finish, our experience with her was excellent. She is full of positive energy. Her listing materials are top of the line and technologically advanced (drone footage, for example, to showcase where the home is located in relation to important town landmarks). If your home needs any work to show it in its best light, she knows the all the right people for the job and everything gets done in a timely and professional fashion. She is also incredibly responsive to any questions along the way, answering emails and texts within minutes (and sometimes seconds). With Melissa we felt we were in good hands every step of the process! Thank you!"

"My fiancée and I had the pleasure of working with Melissa during our house search. Melissa is everything you want in an agent; she is knowledgeable, she is experienced, and she is very responsive. What really separates Melissa from other agents though, was her guidance and feedback during our decision making. We were searching for over a year for the right house, and throughout that process, Melissa was patient with us and continuously provided valuable insight. Buying a house can be a daunting and overwhelming process, but Melissa made the whole process very easy. Melissa was more than just an agent, she was a trusted partner, and we would highly recommend anyone searching for a home to partner with her."
