This is out second opportunity to work with Melissa. The first time we bought a home and this time we sold one. Her professionalism, knowledge, and expertise was higher then ever!! She responded to calls or texts right away, providing insights and resources when necessary. We have bought and sold over 20 homes across the U.S. and our experience with Melissa stands alone at the top. Thank You Melissa

Melissa helped us find and purchase exactly what we were looking for!! She was extremely professional, but it also felt like she was family.
She was extremely responsive by phone, text, or email.
It was a pleasure working with Melissa and I know the next house we sell or buy will be with Melissa Kirk!

When we first met with Melissa we valued her knowledge of the lake home market. Her ability to offer suggestions to make our home show well and the offering of top notch photography to display our home were value added. She is very personable and we felt very comfortable working with her through out the process. Her Tuesday phone call gives you that chance to catch up on anything that is going on with your transaction. But that is not to say she was not available anytime we had questions or concerns. Comparing her to the other realtors we have worked with in recent years, she truly is a cut above.

As a former real estate agent, I could have sold my home FSBO, especially in this seller's market. I chose to hire Melissa for her expert knowledge on the marketing of my home for the best return on my investment. She provided home improvement suggestions, staging advice and furniture for staging too.
Once we needed to review offers and discuss next steps, she was responsive and professional in her advice. Loved the Tuesday weekly call for an update too. That was a really nice touch!
By hiring Melissa, I know that I walked away with 20k more than I would have had I sold FSBO and that is after factoring in the commission. I know that Melissa had my bottom line as her number one objective. Highly recommend!

I have bought and sold a house with Melissa. I can not say enough about her work ethic. She goes above and beyond in every aspect and is very professional. She makes everything so easy and is on your side 1000 percent. Melissa has been doing her job along time and it is very easy to tell she knows every little detail about it. It was a really easy decision to work with her the second time. Give Melissa a call.

Great pre-listing suggestions. Explained the entire process and completed pre-staging for the home house and showings. She worked with our schedule and house sold in 5 days.

We continuously use Melissa for any of our real estate transactions. She helped us buy our first home, and now a lot to build our dream home on. Each time we have worked with her she has been very knowledgeable, and offered many resources and solutions to our needs. I highly recommend Melissa to anyone and everyone buying/selling real estate.

Melissa was incredible! We could not have been happier with our process of finding and eventually buying our home. She was very patient, thoughtful, and personable. She provided us with a range of options to look at and consider and made sure we had the information necessary to make informed decisions. Once we found a home and started negotiations, she provided us with at least weekly updates that involved personal conversations, in addition to emails. She seems to have a great rapport with other realtors and professionals in the area. We would, without hesitation, recommend her to anyone looking for a home in the area she serves.

Looking for a realtor was a easy solution. Before I had property to sell I was impressed with the Facebook information Melissa had with property to buy and she sold. Her ads were informative of the market that was available. So when I had property to sell I knew Melissa was the person to call. She knows the market and is a expert to make your listing stand out. She is as close as a phone call away with any questions you may have. Professional,attention to detail and dedication was helpful in getting the property sold. I cant imagine doing a real estate transaction without her and Lindsay to help me every step of the way. Thank you so much for all you do to make selling real estate easy with your guidance. Thank you both for your help .

Melissa was awesome, she helped us every step of the way. Haven't sold a house in 20 years so we needed all the help we could get. She gave us great advice and staged the house nicely for us. Highly recommend Melissa, she will get the job done!

When we decided to sell our home of 49 years, the problem we faced was picking a realtor. We figured we have about 10 friends in the realty business. Not wanting to offend any or all of them we chose someone we didn't know, Melissa Kirk. We had seen some of her posts on Facebook and decided to give her a call. Right from the start she took over and advised us on everything we had to know and do. Melissa and her staff of Lindsay, Tiffany and others did all the work, made a virtual walkthrough of entire home and a drone video of home and property.
Thanks to Melissa and staff we couldn't be happier with the choice we made.
Thanks Melissa, we're already missing our Tuesday calls!

Melissa was a wonderful asset to us during the sale of our home. She provided us with not only suggestions but support during the entire process. From the pictures and videos to her check-ins with us to make sure we were doing okay - Her professionalism is above par and we'd recommend her without a doubt. We are beyond grateful for her expertise and dedication!

Melissa was a very professional agent. She solicited our house to sell and followed up to make sure our house transaction went smoothly, even though she did not officially represent us at the time. before our transaction was compleated Melissa worked with us to find a new home to purchase. While we found a house on our own she was glad to point us in the correct way to handle our own transaction. She went well beyond our expectations.

Melissa went above and beyond what we expected. She got our house sold when we thought there was no way! If we ever want to sell or buy again in this area, she is the only agent we will go with.

Melissa and her staff were awesome to work with! Melissa's Communication plan was perfect for us. She checked in with us without fail once a week on Tuesdays. If something came up sooner than that She would call us and if I had questions that couldn't wait, she would respond right away.
I actually called her directly when I saw one of her listings. We weren't really in the market to move so we weren't working with a realtor. She way so kind to show us the house.
Well, we fell in love with the house and the yard! We quickly went to work to get our finances in order and hired her to sell our house. I'm so happy that we did! She knows her stuff and explained everything so well. She was confident in the asking price that she recommended and was so reassuring that we could get the price we needed to move forward with purchasing the new house!
Lindsay, her right hand gal, was amazing as well! She is very knowledgeable and was so helpful to keep us on track!
We couldn't have asked for a better team! So happy that, on a whim, made that call! We are now in a home better suited for our family and lifestyle!
Thank you Melissa and Lindsay! You're the best!
