Melissa was our realtor for buying our new home in Denville, NJ and she was an excellent guide in the home purchasing process. We had the challenge of buying a home in NJ while still living in MD. Melissa made the process easy. She helped guide us on the best times to come up for open houses. She was often able to schedule individual tours on Saturdays/Sundays so we could maximize our trips and see both a combination of open houses and individual tours. Melissa gave us excellent advice navigating the real estate market during the COVID-19 pandemic. I was most impressed by Melissa's knowledge about the homes in the area. She skillfully guided us through the various neighborhoods and helped us identify which properties had systematic issues that were concerning and which properties were great deals. We were able to grab a house for under asking, and with a few minor cosmetic improvements, the home is now our dream home. Melissa has great connections in the area and can easily connect you with contractors once the sale has been completed. Melissa was a pleasure to work with and always had our best interests at heart. She was there to listen when we were frustrated with the difficult housing market, cheer us on as we found homes we loved, and go the extra mile to make sure everything went through smoothly.
