Melanie is the most wonderful, intelligent, and kind Realtor. Melanie takes the time to get to know you and works hard to make the buying/selling process as smooth as possible. Melanie and her team are always at the ready and provide clear communication which is essential in any real estate transaction. Thank you so much Melanie & The Conquer It team!!!! - Everest
It has been such a pleasure working with Melanie! She's so friendly and proficient in the housing market. She is also very knowledgeable about house conditions and can easily spot hidden damages or concerning issues that one might not be aware of, which is super helpful. Her eye for detail and meticulousness are second to none. I was impressed by her promptness and high level of professionalism. Melanie happened to be on a family vacation that she had planned long ago for her son's 18th birthday when we had to put an offer on the house we ended up purchasing. However, that did not deter her from remaining on top of things and excelling at her job as a realtor: she was constantly following up with us, answering all our questions so promptly, negotiating with the seller's realtor, and giving us the best advice while away- and all of that in less than 24 hours! I really appreciated all her support and dedication during her time off. I highly recommend Melanie; you will regret not working with her :) - Sibelle El Labban
Melanie is a talented, efficient and knowledgeable realtor. It was clear from the first time met that she values her clients regardless of the monetary value of their transactions (other realtors were clear that our deals weren’t worth their time). Her guidance through multiple sale and purchase processes has been invaluable. It’s a tough job balancing emotions, stress, wants v. needs, timing, budget, competing offers, etc. but she does it all with candor, grace and professionalism. Her recommendations were backed with market research and years of experience. Moreover, she is such an authentic person and searching for a house together was a blast! I’d be remiss not mentioning that she has an equally proficient team and that every service she recommended, inspectors, legal team, etc. have also been a dream to work with. She loves her job and surrounds herself with a network of likeminded people, which made the process very memorable for us. - Pria
Melanie is super knowledgeable and accessible. We had tight timelines in order to get the house we wanted and she was able to sell our house in a tough market. I highly recommend her! - Hal
Melanie was great to deal with through the whole process, she was very professional in all aspects. Melanie was very responsive to all of our questions and showed experience and knowledge in selling our house. All of the advice offered by Melanie was educated by experience and very beneficial to the sale of our home. I would use and recommend Melanie to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. - Matt
Melanie Cantius was an absolute star in selling our home. From the moment we met with her, we felt we were in incredibly capable hands. Her deep knowledge of the market, strategic guidance, and commitment to getting us the best possible outcome made all the difference. Melanie took the time to understand our goals and concerns, and her attention to detail ensured everything went smoothly. She communicated clearly, kept us updated at every stage, and was always available to answer our questions. Thanks to Melanie’s expertise and hard work, our house sold quickly and at a price we were thrilled with. If you’re looking for someone who is dedicated, knowledgeable, and truly cares about her clients, Melanie is the agent you want by your side. We couldn’t be happier with our experience, and we highly recommend her to anyone buying or selling a home. - Daphne Paddock
Melanie was recommended to me by my sister, who was thrilled about the help she received while purchasing her own home. I am very happy to have worked with Melanie. She was knowledgeable, personable, and minimized stress during the purchasing process. If/when I decide to sell my property, I hope to work with Melanie again. - Joel Butler
Melanie was great to deal with when I was buying a home. She was responsive and professional. She showed me lots of options and provided me good advice on my purchase. - Brady
Melanie was absolutely phenomenal to work with. As a first time home buyer, she helped make this process smooth and easy for me. She helped to explain the process every step of the way and was always readily available to answer any questions I had. She helped me find the home I was dreaming of and was willing to do what it takes to help me close the deal. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a realtor. - Bree

I just closed on my first house with the help of Melanie, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home! She was incredibly professional and went above and beyond every step of the way to help me find and secure a home I'm happy with. Her communication was excellent and she was very punctual as well. She provided an all-around great first home buying experience. - Aaron Williamson
Mel is very professional and personable. She brought good advice, strategy and staging to our sale which went seamlessly and resulted in an above asking sale. I can’t highly recommended Mel enough. - Sebastian Pizzata
We could not have asked for a better partner in this process than Melanie. I don't use the term 'partner' lightly - kind, direct, honest and thorough - these are the qualities one hopes for in these transactions. We didn't know her before this process, but her way has us comfortable right away - her integrity and forthcoming nature formed trust off the jump. The purchase was a seamless process - when we sell and buy again, she will be our person. - Jamie
We found our dream home and shared the listing with Melanie. She promptly arranged a showing and assisted us in securing our final offer. Melanie then faced the challenge of selling our current home on a tight timeline with a quick possession date, as we had already purchased our new home. Remarkably, she successfully sold our home twice, after the first offer fell through and at above asking price. Melanie is an absolute pleasure to work with, and I would highly recommend her to anyone! - Lisa Dunphy
My wife and I chose Melanie from a long list of highly rated agents and we are so happy we did!! Melanie was amazing and went above and beyond to help us find the right home for our move from Ontario to Alberta. We are so glad we found Melanie. We now consider her as 'our agent' and would recommend her unreservedly! Thanks again Melanie!! - Mike
Melanie was our realtor for our move from Ontario to Calgary, and she was absolutely fantastic. Not only did she find us the perfect home in a matter of days, but she also went above and beyond to make us feel welcome in this new city. Her expertise in the local food scene was a huge bonus, as she was always quick to recommend some amazing places to eat. One of the things that really stood out about Melanie was her genuine care for her clients. She made sure that we understood every step of the process, answered all of our questions, and was always available whenever we needed her. She truly went the extra mile to make sure that we felt confident and comfortable throughout the entire home buying experience. If you're considering working with Melanie as your realtor, I can't recommend her highly enough. She is truly one-of-a-kind, and you'll be in the best possible hands. Thank you, Melanie, for making our transition to Calgary so much easier! - Michelle & Mike Lowther

Melanie is super professional and we will strongly recommend her. She has done an amazing job. She sold our apartment just for one day. She responded to our questions right away. - Ludmila scvirenco
My wife and I recently moved from BC to Alberta, and we enlisted Melanie's help to find our new home. Melanie is incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and adaptive. When a last-minute listing came up, she promptly arranged a tour and ensured our offer was submitted in time. Her advice throughout the process was consistently accurate and invaluable. We highly recommend Melanie for her exceptional service and expertise. - Lance
After a year of being one the market with another agency, we pulled off the market. Hired Melanie and reset price on her advise and staging. Re-listed and had an offer in 2 days. Very pleased. - Derek

Mel was absolutely amazing. We loved working with her! We would recommend working with Mel to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. She helped us find and view homes in Calgary, Airdrie. Chestermere, and Cochrane. Her experience and knowledge really showed during each viewing we did. - Mike
All I can say is, Wow! Working with Melanie was such a pleasure and such an enjoyable experience from the first meeting until removing conditions on our offer. Mel brings a wealth of knowledge of real estate and an understanding of the current market, gives sound advice and encouragement, and knows what to look for as you go to viewings. She responds very quickly and has flexible availability to accommodate needs of her clients. I would not hesitate to use Mel's services again or to recommend her to anyone who is looking to buy or sell property. If you want a realtor who is knowledgeable, personable, responsive, and just plain fun to work with, then she's your lady! - Tristine
Melanie was beyond helpful and patient with my first time condo purchase. I would definitely recommend her to anyone buying and selling. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you’re feeling overwhelmed. - Morgan
We are returning customers of Melanie and can't recommend her highly enough. She is professional, effective and kind. We ran into some frustrations with our property managers and long past our patience ran out, Melanie was still courteous and pragmatic towards them, getting the job done in a timely manner. - Willem and Estelle
I found Melanie to be very professional, meticulous, courteous and prompt. I enjoyed working with Melanie. We owned a property in Calgary and reside in Ontario. But the process went smoothly. I would recommend her to others who could use her services. - Jeff

Melanie recently sold an investment condo for me. She was very responsive, available and professional. She was also very patient but persistent with the closing process, as it became very complicated by other parties. I would highly recommend her. - Carol
Melanie was friendly, professional, responsive and very effective. We could tell that she knew the market well and was able to facilitate a great outcome for us. We don't live in the area where she sold our property, so it was very reassuring to have somebody in our corner who we can trust to work on our behalf. - Estelle
Melanie was amazing to work with. She's genuine, personable, and professional. From start to finish our process took less than a month! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a new home. - Gabby
This sale was of an old, split zoned property that required a thoughtful sale strategy and patience to deal with bottom fishers and nurture authentic buyers. Melanie provided excellent advice throughout the process and we ultimately got what we wanted. - Richard
Melanie Cantus is a fantastic Real Estate Agent. She is organized, well researched, informative, helpful, responsive and is a lovely person.

Melanie was a dream to work with selling my townhouse. She brought in a terrific stager to help get the place in great showing condition. The first day on the market, we had 3 showings and two offers. We closed above our asking price. Her expertise in listing, marketing and negotiating was 10/10. Overall a total pleasure to work with. Highly recommend! - Emily Woolnough
Mel's commitment to providing kind and authentic service did not go unnoticed. She accommodated her services by conducting virtual showings for us while we were still in Fort St. John, provided a fair and thorough evaluation of the homes we viewed (the good, the bad, and the ugly), and was quick to respond to our questions. We worked with Mel for over a year as we dealt with our own personal challenges to get our move to Alberta lined up and we will always appreciate her dedication to us. She will be our realtor for this home when it is time to sell in 3 - 5 years! - Mindy Henyu

I loved the access to the website so we could look at all the options available, this gave us more information and time to gather our thoughts with Mel before we went and looked at houses together. When we decided on homes verses condos, Mel made sure that was the focus of our search and we had success within a couple of days. - Oden
We were starting this journey of looking for an investment property with a bit of knowledge and a lot of excitement. There were things we didn’t know, questions we didn’t know to ask where Melanie knew what we needed and what we needed to look for and what to have caution about. We had complete trust in her skills and knowledge each step of the way ans were able to secure the perfect starter investment property for us! Thank you Melanie for showing us the ins and outs of the fill process and making the process enjoyable! We would absolutely recommend Melanie for any seller, buyer or even curious market analyst. She knows her stuff! - Michelle
No-showed on an appointment. I drove in from BC to interview agents to sell my late Mother's condo. I had 3 agents to interview so obviously I didn't hire her. She said she entered the appointment for the wrong week on her planner and apologized profusely. Wasted my time nonetheless. - Nelson Miller
Moving across Provinces has added challenges and short windows. Melanie always found a way to accommodate our schedule to view homes when we flew out and answer any questions we had. She’s flexible, knowledgeable, and quick to keep things moving. She made helpful suggestions and went above and beyond keeping our toddler entertained while we looked through homes! - Anya
