Melanie is an exceptionally professional agent who truly cares about her clients. I would highly recommend her and will definitely be using her again in the future. - Tammy St. Pierre

As a realtor, Mel sets the standard for the word “professional”. I should know; she worked with me on finding a downtown condo I could renovate as an executive rental. On a purchase, she is someone you want on your side. She is able to move past the “smoke and mirrors” of a listing to zoom in on the guts of the investment. Her comparative analyses work, experience and negotiation skills got me the property I wanted for 20 percent less than the asking price (and we’re not talking about a big-ticket item). To close the deal, she brought in her collection of experts to perform the inspection of both the unit and the condo docs and introduced me to a dynamo of a mortgage broker. Mel was the one to recite the merits of the area in which I wanted to buy. She was the one who knew how future developments would affect the growth of my investment. She was the one to verse me on the benefits of having a great condo management company in place, a never-ending supply of hot water in the bathroom and a designated parking space. She was also the one who came up with a projection of what my condo could be worth after I renovated it (based on the numbers, my little condo has increased in value by more than 40 percent in the year since purchase). The most remarkable thing about Mel is her integrity and good humor – regardless of where the deal is going. She has nerves of steel and the ability to inject some meaningful quip that helps with the decision-making process. In one instance, she and the mortgage broker discovered that a building in which I was first interested wasn’t insurable by CHMC because of past structural claims. If that fact hadn’t been exposed, I would have been stuck with a lemon of property defeating all my aspirations of becoming a real estate tycoon before my next birthday. Maybe even more significant is her work ethic. The commission on my purchase was puny, but the effort she put into the endeavor was equal to what you’d expect on the sale of a $1 million estate. Talk to Mel. Hire her. Save yourself a little angst and a lot of money. I did. - Elisa White

We can't thank Melanie enough for the outstanding service she provided! She guided us through every step from staging to the final offer and happily answered our multitude of questions. Don't let her friendliness and bubbly personality fool you - she's a fierce competitor who knows her business like no one else we've dealt with. We were able to sell our home in a very tough market in under 3 weeks thanks to Melanie. We would never purchase or sell a home again without her! - Karen Babin

Melanie helped us out tremendously, we took her away from her family multiple times to go check out dozens of houses. She helped us out in so many aspects from the lil things to things we didn’t even know to look for! She made our experience a special one and would recommended her to anyone looking for a professional yet fun agent to work with! - Noel

Mel was amazing to work with! She made us feel like we were her number one priority and took us to every property we wanted to see, finally finding our dream home! - Kayla Eggers

Melanie provided excellent service, maximum effort and great advice throughout the entire process of purchasing our house. I am from out of province, so the process of purchasing a home was a lot more challenging. Melanie made the process very easy and was at our disposal 24/7. She goes above and beyond as she recommended lawyers, insurance agents and other services that I required. We were very fortunate to have Melanie as our agent. She was on top of every detail ,at all times! I highly recommend Melanie as a real estate agent! Melanie, thank you so much for making our home buying experience virtually worry free! You are so awesome and we couldn't have did it without you! - Greg and Rosa

Our home had a conditional sale in just over 50 hours after being listed! Wow! Melanie had cautioned us that under current market conditions we may have several months of work ahead of us. Her services in showing us comparable homes for sale, advice on staging, setting up online photos that showcased our home, guidance regarding price points, and managing the showings and interactions with other realtors were outstanding! Her warm and engaging personality complimented her attitude of service and attentiveness during an unsettling time. We were blessed to have come to know Melanie and will, when we have opportunity, recommend her to family and friends! She is 5 stars! - Greg Weir

Melanie was highly professional and eager to do whatever it took to find us our long-term home. After so many previous moves, it was important for us to find something perfect to be happy in for the long haul with our new, young family. She had great advice and knew exactly what to look for from start to finish including being there for our inspection while we were stuck in another city. There were so many stressors suddenly transferring cities with little children, but Melanie made sure to put us completely at ease and calming a frantic momma. I have so much trust in her that I suggested her to my family for 3 of their properties, all of which went amazingly. You won't find a more honest and hard-working agent!!! - Sarah

We bought & built our “forever” home 5 years ago. Since then we’ve grown from a family of 3 to a family of 5. We realized that we’ve outgrown our home so we decided to sell. We got referred to Melanie through our builder who raved about her. Before we decided with her we did some research & sought out 2 other realtors to compare to. However when we met with Melanie we instantly clicked. She was honest, logical, very knowledgeable & of course showed passion for her career. With 3 kids 4 & under & no support, she understood how stressful selling & buying can be. She did her best to be available whenever we needed her. We loved the effort that was put in to attracting potential buyers via real estate websites, professional brouchure & doing an open house. She also had unlimited access from trades people to stagers & referred us to our wonderful mortgage broker! It was such a pleasure to work with her. We highly recommend her! She will go above & beyond & strives to make the entire process as stress-free as possible. She keeps herself updated with current trends in the market place & knows the necessary steps to selling your home & getting the most out of your return. We sold our home just under 2 1/2 months! It’s a “buyers” market & with so many houses on the market you need the best. Thank you Melanie for everything you’ve done for us. We wish you continued success! - Joanna

After selling our house (with a different realtor that we didn’t really care for), we still hadn’t found the “perfect home” to move into, despite already looking for a year. We read glowing reviews of Mel online and made the switch to her. She certainly exceeded our expectations. From day one, she was committed, professional, transparent, and clearly explained everything we needed to know about shopping for and purchasing a home. It is clear that Mel has been in this business for a while and is passionate about what she does, as she is extremely knowledgeable. Every decision she made with us was logical and well thought-out (i.e., based on past experience or current market statistics). She helped us expand our search criteria (for example, which neighborhoods to search in), as it was so narrow that we just weren’t finding the right house for us. While looking at homes, she could help us critically think about both the features and flaws of each house so that we were making an informed decision. It didn’t take us long to find a house we loved, and Mel expertly negotiated an excellent but fair price (I’m writing this review from my new kitchen that looks out onto the ravine we were looking for..thanks Mel!). The whole experience was just excellent. With all of the choices of realtors out there, why settle for someone who isn’t an expert in the industry? The only regret we have is not finding her sooner so that she could have been a part of selling our house (which we had done a week before meeting her). Thanks again Mel! We love our new home and will never forget your kindness. - A & J

From the moment we met Melanie we felt the warmth of her personality and how she lights up any room she walks into with her smile. She is very professional and confident in everything she does. A true professional who achieved our goal in less than a month. We would highly recommend Melanie to any and all potential clients. She will work diligently for you. We truly loved working with Melanie! - Don and Kerrie Brazil

If Melanie is not your realtor, you are making a huge mistake! Everyone you talk to will always tell you that they know the BEST realtor, and are so quick to refer their realtor to you... It is so hard to make a decision when there is so many realtors out there. But please know, this woman cannot be compared to other realtors... She is literally life changing. She is the most kind, knowledgeable and professional person I have ever met. I've dabbled with other realtors in my past and there is no comparison to the hard work and passion that Mel delivers.. My #1 favorite thing about Melanie was that never once did I feel like she was pressuring me or just out to make a sale... Never once did I feel like she would have let me make a wrong decision. Never once did I feel like I was taking too much of her time. She kept in constant communication, read over my condo documents, came to all of my meetings with the builder, made phone calls to my broker, made phone calls to the builder, she really acted on my behalf even when not required of her and she truly went above and beyond in all ways. Home buying can be a very stressful experience, and Mel actually made it very fun and enjoyable. We laughed and had fun with the whole experience from start to finish. I remember when my boyfriend and I first met her over a year ago, she hugged us (seems like no big deal, but it was so much more friendly and trusting to us than like a business handshake), and then was helping us SO MUCH even though she knew she wasn't going to get paid for it... when we left, we talked about her the whole way home and were like blown away. That initial interaction is what made me settle on her for this home purchase and I have no regrets now that the deal is done. This is the type of person that you can connect with on a different level. There is trust, there is friendship, there is kindness, there is hardwork, there is passion, there is EVERYTHING. I'm probably repeating myself here, but I honestly do not feel like I can express how great Mel is as a human and as a realtor. My expectations were exceeded and I do not just feel like I've gained a realtor for life but a friend! She is such a positive and bright individual, she literally lights up the room when you are with her! All of my friends and my sister cannot wait to use her as well for their future home needs. Thanks again Melanie for everything!! - Kristy Kallenberger

Melanie has been a pleasure to work with. Many times you would hear that selling real estate is difficult or stressful. Never once had I felt that way while working with her. The entire process flowed very easily and I am very happy to have worked with her. I definitely recommend her services. My only regret is that this website only stops at 5 stars. If I could give her 10 stars, I would. Thanks again Mel for your hard work. - Romayne Eastmond

Melanie is a Lioness - Queen of the Real Estate Jungle! 2 days on the market and SOLD! I am proud and blessed to call her my dear friend! Her service and personal attention is exceptional. She truly is a high-caliber professional and her knowledge of the local market and negotiating skills were key in ensuring I received the best offer for my home. Regardless of whether you are buying or selling, I would highly recommend Melanie. I could not have asked for a better Realtor to facilitate the process of selling my home. Carrie & Rylan - Carrie Stokes

Sometimes in life you meet people that you are just meant to meet. This is how we feel about Melanie. In a time when we felt lost and in need of guidance with selling our home at the right time, we met Melanie. From day one, she presented herself in a way that assured us that she had the competence and the confidence to ease our fears and guide us through the very complicated task of selling our home and finding the right home that would suit our needs. Though it wasn’t an easy transition, Melanie was along our side every step of the way. She was very knowledgeable and extremely helpful with absolutely everything that entailed selling our home. Her honesty, persistence and down to earth personality reassured my husband and I that she would never give up on us until her job was done. I would highly recommend Melanie to any of our friends and family. She made a very difficult time into an exciting adventure that led us into our new home. I couldn’t be more thankful that we met Melanie at the right time and feel extremely fortunate that her capability allowed us to begin our new life together in our own space that suits our needs. Thank you Melanie for being there for us through all the many challenges and definitely exceeding our expectations! - Diane Leepack

Melanie exceeded our expectations and delivered in every aspect of our house sale. She is prompt, courteous, and uses every tool there is available to succeed. We will certainly continue to use and refer her to anyone who wants to be handled by a sophisticated real estate professional. - DJM

Melanie was amazing. The sale had many complicating factors that required extra research, time and effort on her part. She took on the challenges with a smile and had no problems getting everything in order. Her expertise with digital paper work was so helpful as I was not in the same province as the unit being sold. However, it did not feel like it was any extra work or could have been any easier if I was in Calgary. The best part of working with Melanie though was her true care for the wellbeing of me and my family. I felt no pressure to accept any offer that was not what we were looking for and always felt I was getting an honest opinion when we talked over options. She was creative in looking at every possible option to get the end result we were looking for. I could have not have been more happy with Melanie's work and will ALWAYS use her services in the future. - Heather O'Brien

This exceptional lady is the aficionado of real estate agents! The selling of my home had to be handled long distance and let me just say that Mel knows how to use the tools in her belt. She is an absolute dream to work with and the selling of my home was quick and stress free, all I had to do was hand over the reins and let her do what she does. I would highly recommend Mel for any real estate transaction and would definitely use her again! Thanks Mel!! - Robin Thompson

EXCEPTIONAL!!!! I honestly can not say enough good things about this wonderful lady!!! This was my first time selling property, and Melanie made it soooo very easy! She took the time to walk me through the process step by step. She was always there to answer my questions - and believe me I had a lot!! :) Melanie has such a great heart and REALLY cares about you and your needs. She really went to bat for me and got me the price I was wanting and needing!!! It was such a pleasure and an honour to work with her! I live in a different province which made the sale a wee bit more challenging (for me) but again this didn't phase her at all. I would absolutely recommend Melanie to anyone needing a realtor!!! It is VERY apparent that Melanie takes great pride and joy in what she does. This young lady...I now consider a FRIEND!! xo - Joyce Thomson

Meliane was AMAZING - she was always there for US. She made our family feel so great about all decisions and when I would get "STRESSED out over thing" like I do she helped me though it like a true friend, not like a realtor. She have amazing qualities that just made us feel SO comfortable at every stage. Three cheers for Melanie. - Michelle Shea

Melanie was absolutely amazing to work with right from the start. She cared not only about selling our home quickly and at a good price but also about helping us find the right new home for us. She was such a trooper driving all the way to NW to show us homes in the area we wanted to live. I would really recommend Mel to anyone. She feels more like a friend now than just a realtor. You can tell that she loves what she does and she puts in the effort big time. We got an amazing deal on the house of our dreams thanks to Mel. And our house sold in 11 days thanks to all of her efforts. - Laurene

Melanie went above and beyond for our family. Not only was she very professional she was amazing. Selling our home was an emotional time and she was so helpful with making the transition easier for us. She works so hard for her clients in a caring and professional manner. Her knowledge and advice was always right on the mark. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to purchase or sell their home because she cares about her clients and loves her job which makes her an amazing agent! I wish Melanie the best and will never forget her. And if I ever sell or buy again I will use her for sure. - Jen

Melanie helped me find exactly what I wanted in my first home. I would highly recommend Melanie to anyone looking to buy or sell their home! - Sean

We used Melanie to buy our first home and could not have been happier. The service was incredible and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend her. - Ashley Hamilton

Melanie was very helpful, professional and knowledgeable in selling our first home and helping us find a forever home. My husband and I had a lot of different requirements that our next home needed to have and Melanie was able to find that for us at a lower price then we were even expecting. She was easy to talk to and get a hold of at ALL hours. We love our new home and really feel like we lucked out finding Mel as a relator. We would use her again for sure and recommend her to anyone I hear looking to sell or purchase real estate. - Alyssa Fortner

Melanie is a by far the best agent I have ever worked with! She is a true expert in the field and her customer service is exceptional. She genuinely cares about her customers and it feels as though you are working with a family member who is protecting your best interest. I will continue to use Melanie for all of my real estate needs and will recommend her to everyone I know. - Natalie Noble

A great person to work with!! She puts the client first - elsie lewis
