Reviews

Melanie advised us in regards to the right strategy and pricing for both [the buy-side and sell-side] transactions. Thanks to her, we were able to find our dream home and sell our existing home in a very short period.
— Bought and sold a single family home in the South End
Mel went to great lengths to understand our wants and needs. She was patient in waiting to present the right property to us and didn’t just spam us with every property that loosely fit our criteria. Mel is an excellent negotiator. She made sure our interests and rights were upheld. I can honestly say that without her, our transaction may not have crossed the finish line.
— Bought a condo in the South End
Melanie was fantastic work with on purchasing our first home. We were first-time buyers and had just moved back to Boston, so we had a lot to learn about the real estate market and the home-buying process. Mel was super patient with us and was an invaluable resource: going to open houses with us and teaching us what to look out for when touring a home. In a competitive market, she was fantastic during the offer and negotiation process, guiding us towards an offer that would get the owner’s attention and that ultimately landed the perfect home for us. Even after we closed and moved in, Mel has remained a friend and resource as we navigate all the “fun” challenges of living in a historic home. Overall, can’t recommend Mel enough!

Another thing to note about Mel is that she has a fantastic reputation among her peers, which is a great measure of her character. Plus, it was always fun to go open houses and hear stories about Mel from the listing agents!
— First time buyer in the south end
Melanie was outstanding. She was well organized, responsive and the consummate professional. With great local knowledge, she was able to highlight certain aspects of our home that made it desirable for potential buyers in our area. I highly recommend Melanie for any homeowner looking to sell or any potential buyer.
— bought and sold condos in south boston
We used Melanie to find/purchase our new home and sell our old home in 2018. Her knowledge of the Back Bay and South End markets was extensive. She was extremely knowledgeable with high integrity, and advised us in regards to the right strategy and pricing for both transactions. Thanks to her, we were able to find our dream home and sell our existing home in a very short period.

She was extremely responsive throughout the process and even after. She also was helpful in referring us to vendors we needed for the move.

She helped to make what was a stressful process more streamlined. We don’t plan on ever moving again, but if we were to move we would only use Melanie. And we would 100% recommend her to any of our friends who are moving.
— bought and sold homes in back bay & south end
Melanie was amazing to work with! We were looking for a new home in a different neighborhood so it was very helpful having her there with us. She is knowledgeable, experienced and a pleasure to work with! Her whole team was amazing through the closing process, we couldn’t have been happier!
— bought and sold off market in south boston & jamaica plain
Melanie is professional. She works hard to minimize the hassle of what can be a very stressful event - selling your home. She got our place sold without us needing to stage it. It was as low-key as it could have been. During the selling process she was on top of everything, to make sure the sale went smoothly.
— sold a condo off market in the south end
Melanie was simply incredible to work with, in every way possible. She was knowledgeable, responsive, creative and most of all, very easy to get along with. I had always thought that residential real estate brokers were unnecessarily middlemen in an otherwise simple transaction, but Melanie changed my mind about that - some brokers really can add a LOT of value!
— bought a single family and a condo in the south end
Melanie worked with us for over 8 months as tried our best to find our perfect home. We got discouraged - Melanie did not! She knew that with a little patience and a smart strategy, we would eventually make the offer that just could not be refused. In the end, we bought the best house of any that we saw and could not be happier with the outcome. Melanie was just great and we are so appreciative of her hard work and patience with us!
