Melanie is an exceptional agent! She made selling our house a smooth and pleasant experience. She knew exactly what to do at every step of the process and gave us excellent guidance along the way. She was extremely helpful and responsive, we live in Ontario and selling our home so far away is not easy but Melanie made this such a great experience. She remained confident when we encountered challenges and always kept us on target. We sold our home above asking price! Thanks so much Melanie!! Highly recommended! - Danna
Reply: Oh Danna! Thank you for these kind words. I just loved helping your family to sell your Calgary home. Thank you for your trust and taking the time to share your experience working with me!
Melanie went above and beyond for me. As a single mom and working long hours she was always there to help with what ever it was that needed to be done. She always took the time to answer my endless questions and my time line on getting the old house sold. She was able to market and sell my old house on a very short time line. I highly recommend Melanie as she was very personable and so great to work with and trust when I could not be there. Besides being very personable Melanie’s is very well versed in the Real Estate industry I highly recommend her. - Twylla
Reply: Thank you so very much! It was a wildly fast process once we found your dream home, but with your trust and dedication to the process it went as smooth as can be and I am so happy you are both settled in your perfect new home!
Melanie worked with us for 2 years as we searched for our dream location and home. She gave us great advice putting an offer on a house that received multiple bids. We are now selling our house and she has been a great help with staging, setting a price, and understanding the market conditions. - Katie
Reply: Thank you very much for taking the time to write these kind words. It's been such an honour to help your family find a new place to make your very own. Thank you also for your trust in selling your current property. Looking forward to seeing what you do with your new home!
We discovered Melanie after having searched for a Calgary realtor with good reviews online since we were relocating from another province. We had very specific wants and a very specific situation going on also. She could have easily backed out but chose to accept this challenge. We definitely were not disappointed. She guided us and answered all our questions, set us back on track when we needed reassurance on our doubts of finding a place. She even answered us during her vacations (which she didn't have to do). She was always available , patient, and ready to answer any questions we had. My wife and I would recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone searching for a place .We are extremely happy now and are very appreciative for her help . She even got to represent the seller due to her good service and communication skills which was a win/win for everyone. Thank you so much Melanie for being you and helping us. We are extremely happy being here in our home. Marco and Heidy . - Marco and Heidy

Hi Mel, can you let me know where to send these words about our realtor that we adore to?! Melanie is incredible to work with! She is truly everything we wanted in a realtor: confident, knowledgeable, flexible, assertive, kind and FUN! She made us feel so equipped to sell our home with her expertise, guidance and consistent support. We are so thankful to have chosen Melanie on this journey - she’s truly the best! - Tammy Cetiner Jespersen
Reply: Wow thank you for the kindest words and time you took to express them. I am so grateful you chose me and that we could walk this journey together. Thank you!
Melanie was unbelievable to work with! She was so patient and educational throughout our home buying process. As first time home buyers in a very stressful market, Melanie was able to make it an enjoyable and fun process. We felt like family by the end and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell! - Tiffany
Reply: I am so grateful you guys chose me and that we were able to find you the perfect home. It was so much fun getting to know you both and acquiring fantastic new friends along the way! Thank you for taking the time to share these kind words. You guys are awesome.
There’s not enough good words to describe Melanie. A genuine, down to earth amazing person. There to answer questions and walk me through the process. I couldn’t ask for a better realtor.

The professionalism, knowledge, and determination that Melanie Cantius showed us during our home search this winter gave us the confidence to know that in the end we would be successful. Melanie found us a large ravine home in the NW and we could not be happier. We would highly recommend Melanie to anyone in need of help navigating the Calgary real estate market. In our opinion she is a cut above some of the so called top tier realtors in the city. Melanie Cantius is the best. - Gary Kolody
Reply: I am blushing! Thank you so much Gary! It was so much fun helping you guys and finding the perfect place for your needs. Thank you for choosing me and for these kind words. You are such lovely people and I am so pleased to know you and have worked with you!
We just bought our home in Calgary and had the pleasure to work with Melanie Cantius. She made what could have been a stressful and difficult process as painless as possible. Melanie cares passionately about her job and made herself readily available to show us numerous houses before we found our home. We really appreciate Melanie's efforts. - Jacqueline
Reply: Jacquie thank you so much for finding me on here and circling back with this kind review of your experience. I so loved helping you guys find your home and think of it and the gorgeous views from all those windows overlooking the ravine often. I am so grateful you chose me. Thank you!
Melanie has helped us to find and successfully acquired our "DREAM home" in a highly competitive market in 2021. It was a high-end built stylish show home and located right beside a scenic pond in a highly sought-after community. In a high demand low supply market, the house had many offers within the first day. We did not think we could get it. Melanie strategically guided us to make an offer that we wanted with conditions that would beat other buyers. She is very calm, never pushy, and knows the best strategies for execution. Not only we were chosen to purchase this dream home among many competitors, we purchased the house "below asking price". Our house value has already exceeded the purchase price before we moved in. I am a business professor and have purchased properties in Canada and US numerous times. I have encountered many realtors. Melanie is definitely TOP NOTCH! She is genuinely nice, patient, and SMART knowing how to execute the best strategies for her clients. I give her a honest A++. I would hire her over and over again. Melanie is simply the best there is for a realtor! - Maggie
Reply: Thank you very much for the kind words Maggie. It was such a pleasure assisting your family in securing the perfect place to call home. I couldn't be happier for you and excited for you to start your lives here in Calgary.
We bought and sold with Mel, both experiences were absolutely amazing from getting complicated answers addressed quickly to professional representation and thoughtful guidance in the negotiation process. We would not have met our goals independently. Simply put, Mel is second to none personally and professionally. The best person and the best realtor you'll find! - Rod Brown
Reply: Thank you so much Rod! I just love you guys so much and am so grateful you chose me to assist you with finding your stunning new home and selling your beautiful previous one. I am excited for you guys to have your first Christmas in your new home!
Melanie was our choice of Agent, was no pressure at anytime. Professional, but personal and caring. Would definitely refer her anyone needing and agent. Greatly appreciated the work Melanie did. - Nick/jennifer
Reply: Thank you so much Jennifer & Nick! It was such a pleasure working with you on the sale of your gorgeous ridge home. Thank you for being so incredibly focused as we worked to make your home stand out so we could get you top dollar! Wishing you both all the best in the path ahead.
Working with Melanie was amazing! We were under tight time constraints and had specific expectations on what we were looking to purchase. She was patient and professional and was able to find us the perfect house to purchase by negotiating a deal with a quick possession date. - Kathy Klassen
Reply: Thank you Kathy. We sure had a fast and furious mission - and we succeeded together! I am so thrilled for you guys to be moving into such a stunning home in a few days. Thank you for choosing me to be your partner in crime for this! Welcome home!

Remarkable agent. Knows her stuff inside out, personable, and effective. Works with top notch supporters to make a highly effective team. Sold our house in 2.5 days. She was highly recommended by our former renter couple who were out of towners and googled for best realtor in Calgary. - Meir Nawy
Reply: Thank you very much for such a lovely review. I loved the opportunity to sell your home and help you with all the details involved in selling from another country.
Im blown away by the quality of service that we’ve received from Melanie! She is amazing and made the process of buying our first home as easy and stress-free as possible! She made one of the biggest decisions in our life feel like one of the easiest! She showed us dozens of houses, wrote up multiple offers, and yet showed up to every showing with so much patience and a smile on her face. She’s so warm, easy-going, knowledgable, helpful, and professional. She went above and beyond in every area! I would highly recommend her! - Kayleigh and Spencer Paddock
Reply: We had so much fun finding you the best home to set your roots down. I loved helping you and am grateful you chose me!
Melanie was very kind and patient with our very first home purchase.She was able to guide us to viewing and advise us on issues to consider. We had issues with the broker We chose and Melanie did so much above what was required to get into our house .We would be happy to use her service again and would recommend it to anyone. - Austin
Reply: Thank you for the kind words. I am so glad I was able to advocate for you and go to bat for you when some things that shouldn't have happened took place. Ultimately we got you through a challenging situation and your home is perfect for you guys! Thank you for choosing me!
Melanie did a great job helping my boyfriend and I purchase our first home. During a hot market period she was able to show us homes on a few hours notice, as properties were selling the same day there were listed. She was honest and pointed out things to be aware of in each home we saw. She fought for us when faced with competing offers on properties and walked us through all the paperwork when putting together offers. - Alex
Reply: Thanks so much for choosing me. It was such a pleasure to work with you through a challenging time in the market and secure you guys the perfect place to call home! Thank you for taking the time to write this review as well. It means so much to me.
Melanie was invaluable to us as our agent, literally, as we were dependent on her to preview and assess several properties. We made our offer based on her input and pictures and other information she provided. Melanie worked well us, kept us informed, and set up appropriate conditions on the offer to ensure that we got good value. After acceptance of our offer, Melanie introduced us to some excellent contractor and painter support to transform our property into the finished product we wanted. - Geoff Goss
Reply: What an honour to assist you guys from afar and so different to only meet once the purchase was firm. What a huge amount of trust you put in me, and I appreciated it so very much. We were able to find you a spectacular home, and the changes you've made to it took it to the next level. Thank you for choosing me. I hope you are loving Calgary as you head into your first winter in your stunning new home!
Melanie is an extraordinary realtor! She listens to your concerns and make sure that you are involved in the process in whichever way you want to be. She is sensitive and kind and understands the emotion behind selling your home. You can tell this is not just a job for her she loves to help people! - Dayna
Reply: Thank you so much for the generous words and for choosing me to sell your magnificent home. I loved being a part of the big life change you guys made and seeing where it's taken you. Thank you again for choosing me!
Mel was an absolute dream to work with. Her communication was always prompt and professional. We really valued her opinion on our home and what would merit the most value from a buyer. She was genuine, honest and up front with us throughout the whole process. Anyone I know who is buying or selling a property and is looking for a realtor should use Mel for a professional, honest and personal approach. Thank you so much Mel! - Meghan Misquita
Reply: Thank you so much for such incredibly kind words. Thank you for your faith and trust in me to get your spectacular property sold. That was so fun to be a part of and I am so grateful you chose me.
Melanie is a wonderful realtor and one we are happy to recommend! She helped us navigate buying a home in a new city during a crazy market, with calmness and skill. We had a very specific wish list and from the start it was obvious Melanie was more interested in finding us the perfect home in the perfect community rather than just making a quick sale. Her patience, knowledge and thorough understanding of real estate and the Calgary area helped us find-and buy-a house we are happy to call home. - Shannon McKinnon
Reply: Thank you Shannon! It has been an honour to assist you guys in finding the right place. Thank you for taking the time to share these kind words.
Melanie was very professional, understanding, supportive and most of all, knowledgeable. We had other agents prior to Mel that didn't understand the area, market or intricacies of acreage real estate but Melanie was a true professional and we couldn't have done this without her. She has worked tireless, always in our best interest, and earned out trust forever. - Ivan Busic
Reply: Thanks so much for taking the time to write a review, and for your trust and loyalty. I am so excited to see what comes next for your lovely family.
Melanie is knowledgeable, patient, kind and did a great job selling our house after only a few days on the market. She was always there to answer our questions and to guide us through the process. She did a fantastic job communicating with us from start to finish. I highly recommend Melanie as their realtor!! She is efficient, honest and professional:) Thank you Melanie!!! - Melissa Gilders-Joseph
Reply: Thanks so much Melissa! It was such a pleasure helping your family. Though I really wish you guys relocated on our street and not out of province!
Melanie was amazing to work with. Her knowledge of the market and experience selling homes helped us to list and sell our home above asking price in only 3 days! I would recommend Melanie to anyone looking to sell or buy. She was available every step of the way! Thanks again for everything Melanie!! :) - Shawn Kyer
"I want to thank my friend and realtor Melanie Cantius for all her hard work selling my home, especially during the pandemic. Melanie was with me every step of the way to get the job done while I was a province away! A true professional and hard worker which makes her one of the best. - Rob L
Reply: Thanks so much for picking me to assist you Rob! Come visit soon!
Melanie was a dream to work with. I would highly recommend her to anyone. She was always super flexible and easy to book showings with, and would get back to you quickly for any questions/requests at any time of day. She is personable and offers a very honest feedback which is very genuine. We really enjoyed Melanie and look forward to working with her in the future. - Nicole Romeril
Reply: Thanks so much Nikki! It was so fun helping you guys find a place to call home and I can't wait to see what you do with the place!
Words cannot describe how grateful we are to have had Melanie represent both the sale of our home and the purchase of a new one. She is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and accommodating during all aspects of the process. She is honest and open with an amazing ability to take the stress out of both buying and selling in this very intense market. Her and her team of professionals helped us prepare for listing with amazing advice and showcasing our property at it’s very best made for a quick hassle free sale. I truly believe that we found our dream home only because of her experience and advice. Competing with three other offers for a home that we fell in love with was absolutely daunting, but Mel knew just how to navigate the situation and put us at ease. I would recommend her to anyone wishing to buy or sell a home. I cannot say enough positive about our experience working with Melanie, she truly is the best of the best. - Stephanie Castiello
Reply: I can't thank you guys enough for trusting me and letting me be the one to help you navigate the sale of your current home and the purchase of your fabulous new one. I truly miss seeing you all regularly and can't wait to give you the key to your new home in a few weeks. Thank you for everything. Love your family dearly!
Melanie is an absolutely amazing realtor. My partner and I had spoken with 3-4 realtors before her and she was the only one who we trusted as she was SO knowledgeable (great analytics), responsiveness, very professional, hard working and so nice! I would refer her to any of my friends and family. She is AMAZING. - Subiksha Subramani
Reply: Awe thank you so much for the kind words! I really appreciated the opportunity to work with you both. I can’t wait to do it again!
Melanie is by far the Best Realtor in Calgary! This is the 2nd house Melanie has successfully sold for me and this time within 24 hours of listing! She is a powerhouse.

Melanie was a hard working knowledgeable Realtor to whom I will recommend to everyone. She took all my pertinent info and began a relentless search which was ultimately very successful. - Wesley Martens
Reply: Thank you very much Wes! I love working with you and appreciate you choosing me out of all the agents out there!
Melanie was very helpful through the entire home search process until the final sale. She was flexible with times to view places, and always gave a unbiased opinion on properties. Melanie worked hard to find a home that met all of my needs. Once we found that home, she ensured that I was paying a market value price for what I was looking for. She was there throughout the entire process including the home inspection, and was always happy to give me her feedback and advice. Melanie was efficient and eliminated anxieties that accompany purchasing a home. I would highly recommend Melanie to anyone looking to find their new home! - Kyle Pearen
Reply: Thank you Kyle! I loved having the opportunity to help you buy your first home! Thank you so much for choosing me!
Mel is amazing. This was our first home purchase so we had a lot of questions and she answered all of them honestly, which we really appreciated. She also was able to offer insight on what potential renovations would cost (and she was bang on) and she recommended service providers when needed. We had lots of laughs along the way and never felt pressured. When it came time to put in an offer she prepared us for the process and it felt pretty easy. A couple of times the sellers were difficult to deal with, but Mel took care of it and really minimized our stress. She was always available and has been available even after closing when we've had questions about things that have popped up after. I won't hesitate to recommend her, she's the best! - Suzanne
Reply: Suzanne! I loved helping you find your beautiful home and all the laughs along the way! I am so grateful you picked me!
Melanie was wonderful! She helped us through every step of the process and was always available to answer questions or concerns. I will recommend Melanie to any of our family and friends. - Elizabeth Montgomery

Melanie was very professional too work with. I was very demanding on what I was looking for and the price I was comfortable with. Melanie found me a home that came in under budget and met all my expectations. - Brett Turner
Reply: Thank you Brett! I love a challenge and appreciate you choosing me to assist you with it! Thank you for taking the time to write these kind words!
Melanie is a true gem. She was very knowledgeable and beyond helpful. From providing advice on who to use as a professional stager as well as contractors who could do an RPR, to even mowing the lawn - she exceeded all expectations! She was also very knowledgeable about comparables and helpful as we navigated an estate situation. I would definitely recommend Melanie. - Heather
Reply: Heather it was such a pleasure! Thank you so much for choosing me and taking the time to share this generous testimony.
An absolute pleasure to work with. She actually mowed my lawn for a showing? Who does that? I felt like I was dealing with family or a friend, meaning she looked out for me as if she was. She’s genuine and super knowledgeable! - Ryan Kurtch
Reply: Thank you Ryan! It was such a pleasure working with you and I appreciate you taking the time to write such kind words about me!
I used Melanie for both the sale of my condo and the purchase of my new home. She was very honest, friendly and definitely fought for you as the buyer! The sellers realtors were not easy to deal with and she went above and beyond to make sure we were happy! Highly recommend! - Christie Romeril
Reply: Thanks so very much Christie! It's been such an absolute pleasure to get to represent you on both these homes! Wishing you endless joy in your gorgeous new home!
Melanie was great to deal with. She was patient with us and ensuring we were comfortable and understood everything. It was pleasure and we would recommend her to our friends and family - Daniel Leepack

Reply: Thank you lovely! It was so fun helping you find your new home! Thank you for choosing me and writing these kind words!
Sitting here at my computer a month after my house sold, it’s a struggle to put into words to accurately articulate what Melanie has done for me. My wife and I had separated, are attempting to sell our house together, and oh by the way, a once in a lifetime pandemic is coming. Add to this, I had a pretty healthy distrust of realtors from my previous experience of buying and selling houses. So with all this being said, our house is now sold, I’m in a new house, starting a new life and I will never, EVER use another realtor than Melanie. Buying and selling a home can be a very stressful time, and all I can say to anyone potentially choosing to use Melanie, is to trust her. She knows what she’s doing. And she doesn’t play games, use half-truths, or rely on gross/misleading sales tactics that I’ve experienced so many times before. She’s surrounded herself with a good team of other real estate professionals, you will be taken care of throughout the entire buying and/or selling process, and she’s always a phonecall away. Iif you are feeling stressed about the transaction, you always feel better after talking to her, because you know she’s acting on your behalf. So many realtors say they are, and I’m sure many do, but I guarantee Melanie’s priority is always her client. - Craig Zaychkowsky
Reply: Awe Craig! What an incredible review, this means the world to me. Thank you for taking the time to write this and most of all thank you for your trust. It was such a pleasure to assist your family and get you onto this new chapter of your life. Hope you are well and thank you again so sincerely.
I can’t say enough good things about Melanie, my wife and I just adore her and truly appreciate everything about her and her approach to real estate. We worked with Mel thru the 2018-19 market downturn in Calgary and surrounding area and when we finally closed in March 2020 (a mere 3 days before the pandemic shutdown) we couldn’t have been more mixed with our emotions to finally have sold but to not be working with Mel anymore. We couldn’t have asked for anyone better and I would recommend her in an instant to anyone! - Darren Ward
Melanie listened to what we said we were looking for. Lined up over 20 plus viewings in a short period of time. Was always available and provided timely responses to questions. Was very knowledgeable of the market and area. We cannot thank her enough for helping us relocate the area in such a short turnaround. I am sure I was not easy to deal with considering every time we walked in a house I was looking at the functionality of the home. Being a custom home builder for so many years, it was a challenge to find something out of a box. But with Melanie’s help, we found a great place that our son will grow up in and a place we can call home. Thank you. - Damon
Reply: It was a great time finding your such a fabulous place to call home and pure benefit to me to spend time with someone so knowledgeable on the components of a home that often are overlooked before the inspection. I know you taught me things that will benefit my clients for the rest of my career! Hopefully soon, you can get out and enjoy the community as well as your home! Thank you again for choosing me to help with your location. I loved having the opportunity!
"It’s hard to explain just how grateful I am to have had Melanie as my realtor. Melanie is first and foremost a genuinely wonderful human being. She was referred to me by my (incredible) mortgage broker, and from the first contact I had with her I felt like she had my back. The circumstances under which I needed to sell and buy a new place were far from ideal and terrifying for me, but she took it all in stride and just got to work. Within one week of listing, we had an offer and were conditionally sold. When that buyer fell through (through no fault at all of Melanie’s), she had us re-listed and conditionally sold again within 3 (!!!) days, and helped extend the deadlines on my purchase to ensure I didn’t lose the perfect new place for me and my kiddos. Throughout all the ups and downs of that, she was an absolute delight to work with. Her intelligence, integrity, honesty, and positivity truly set her apart from any other realtor I’ve ever come across. She also assembles the perfect team of people to assist with the fine details – from staging consultants to home inspectors, anyone she’s recommended has been amazing. Both my sale and my purchase are now firm, and without her nerves of steel and sense of humour I don’t know how I would have gotten through it all. I will only ever use her as my realtor and/or recommend her as a realtor for others. In summary and in conclusion, Melanie Cantius is more beautiful than Cinderella, smells like pine needles and has a face like sunshine. " - Carol Z
Reply: Carol!!!! This might just be my favourite review of all time! My humour? I think it's yours that pulled us through the challenges along the way! Thank you so sincerely for choosing me to help you out. It was an absolute honour and I could not be happier to know you have found such a perfect home for you and your beautiful little people to live in and love in for a very long time!
My wife and I met Melanie through my brother-in-law and wife. I am glad we did. We found a bungalow and after finishing the renovations, we decided to list with the realtor that we bought the house from. After listing the house it sat on the market for 3 months with no action at all. My wife and I were getting a little nervous about how long it was taking to sell the house. We decided to get Melanie's opinion on how we should make changes to sell the home. She suggested we keep the price the same but just stage it professionally, paint the fireplace, added fantastic photos and open houses and got an offer within the first two weeks. She was very professional and straight to the point. We took her advice and staged the home, within 3 weeks on the market the house was sold! She was bang on about the changes and we can't thank her enough. Then we decided to sell our rental property and advised us she was not happy with the staging and she made the necessary changes and our rental property sold with 2-3 months. Melanie is very polite and easy to talk to. She has exceeded our expectations as she went above and beyond regarding the sale of our properties. Again I cannot thank her enough! If we need a realtor in the future, we would call Melanie Cantius again!!! - Matt Taylor
Reply: Thank you so much for such generous words. It's been an amazing experience working with you and succeeding in meeting your goals because you were willing to take on some changes and tweaks to get you sold. We've formed quite the team and I have no doubt this is just the beginning of many successful sales together! Thank you for choosing me!
My brother and his wife referred Melanie Cantius to us as he had great success and experience when they sold their house. We were trying to sell our home that was on the market for 3 months with no success with a prior agent. We contacted Melanie and she was able to professionally assess our situation and offered the best advice. She was very pleasant, helpful and with her recommendations, we sold the house. From the initial date of signing the contract with the Melanie the house was sold in only 3 weeks and close to asking price. We are glad we trusted her judgment and recommendations which resulted in success! Our experience with Melanie has been outstanding. She is detail-oriented and has gone the extra mile in order to ensure the property got sold. If you want to sell your home, give her a call and it will be done!!! - Natalie Taylor
Reply: Natalie! Its the perfect combination when I get to partner with people like you that are willing to take on the best marketing strategies available to get sold! We've successfully done that together twice, in not very ideal market conditions. It's such a pleasure working with you and I appreciate your kind and thoughtful words! Thanks for choosing me.
Melanie was/is a dream to work with. Besides the fact that she makes all of this fun, she has gotten results. From analyzing the value of our home to selling it for that price, she was confident and strong in the process of achieving a sale that all other realtors we interviewed under analyzed in comparison. We look forward to our next purchase with Melanie's assistance. With that I can say that so far she has held strong to our desired purchase and reminded us at all times what market value the property holds. We find that her knowledge and experience has lent to our success in the process of selling & now we are confident in the same with buying. - Jacqueline Clark

Working with Melanie was like working with a really great friend! She was informative on things we should be watching out for before buying a house. Super friendly and nice! We never felt pressured or that she was just trying to make a sale. She truly cares and did all she could to make sure we got the best home for our family! I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy a house! - Jessica
Reply: Such heart warming words. I truly hope all my clients feel that way. It's so easy when I get to work with lovely little families like yours. Thank you for these kind words and taking the time to express how you felt. It means so much to me!
Mel Cantius is an incredibly hardworking and passionate realtor. She is clearly on a Dharmic path of uniting families to homes, financial opportunities/investments and security. As an independent mother of two, Mel helped us get into our own home within our budget. Not only did she help us find the perfect home she helped us get the most value for our dollar. She even provided emotional support when I started experiencing "buyers anxiety". Her calm and energetic demeanor truly made this stressful process a lot more manageable and dare I say enjoyable! She is patient, incredibly smart, intuitive, and absolutely fierce! Over a year later, my kids and I love our home more now than on day of purchase! We have come to love and appreciate our home in all ways she said we would! Mel Cantius IS five Stars!! - Melanie Cibula
Reply: I am so happy you love your home so much, I knew it was going to be fabulous for your family! It was so fabulous getting to work with you and I can't thank you enough for choosing me! It's a stressful time but you handled it all in stride and made wonderful decisions for your family! I am so proud of you and honoured to have been a part of that life changing event for you!
We've had the pleasure of working with Melaine twice, and wouldn't even consider anyone else in the future. Melaine treats you like family, she helps you and guides you into the best decision regarding sale and purchase. Neither of our transactions have been smooth as our bank was a nightmare but Mel was there with people to help us immediately! For Melanie it's not about commission and you can tell that from the start, it's about finding you the best outcome. It's about the connections she makes with her clients, where in the end it's more like friends or family. Paisley says hi to Daisy ♥️ - Sarah Reed
Reply: Oh Paisley! Daisy misses you! Thank you for the kind words, I have loved being able to work with your family and cherish these kind words! Thank you a million times over!
We were very fortunate to have had Mel as our Realtor. As we were not living in Calgary we relied heavily on her expertise and professionalism. She did not disappoint us! She always gave us great advice and we knew she had our best interests in mind. She went above and beyond. We are definitely using her again when we look to buy a house in Calgary.
