"When the COVID-19 pandemic hit delaying our wedding, we were seeking
something genuinely good in the purchase of our first home. We were also on
a very tight timeline (7 weeks). We were referred to Melissa by our
parents/in-laws after she helped them sell their current home and purchase
a new home. We literally cannot think of anyone else who would have been
able to get us to where we are today as new homeowners with as much grace,
enthusiasm and knowledge as Melissa did. From our intro call, to closing
day, Melissa guided us through every step of the process, and was
impressive in every sense. As first time buyers, navigating the process
during a global pandemic, we had so many questions. Melissa was always very
patient, quick to respond, and calming. We are so grateful to have worked
with such a knowledgeable agent, and a wonderful person who constantly has
your best interests at heart. We would highly recommend her to anyone
looking to buy or sell!"

"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 ultracompetitive 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."
