Melissa Elliott

One of the best referrals weve gotten to date. Melissa was great to work with and relieved much of the stress of finding and buying our new home especially as we were moving across country and didnt really know the area. She was attentive and carefully listened to our needs and wants and helped us narrow down the search. We really appreciated her clearing her schedule to work with us over the couple days we had to view and ultimately pick a homeand the buying process itself was easy with her attention to detail and coordinating the various moving parts. Wed highly recommend Melissa to anyone in need of a knowledge, personable, and even patient agent.

Melissa was a tremendous help to my family while relocating from out of state! She was knowledgeable and professional throughout the whole process. We would recommend her to anyone!

When you need a house sold in the Raleigh area, Melissa Elliott is the one for the job! She recently sold my parents home after they moved into a retirement community. She has fantastic partners she works with who assisted my parents in selecting items to take with them, moved them and took care of the rest. Melissa worked very hard to get the best price for their house and kept my parents abreast of all activity. Any bumps in the process were handled quickly, professionally and with respect to my aging parents. It certainly took a load off me and my three brothers. Thanks Melissa for all you did to make this as easy as possible.

Melissa was extremely helpful from day one with selling our house and has continued throughout the process of building our new home. She has gone above and beyond helping us prepare our home to be sold and advertising. We struggled selling our house last year with it being on the market for 6 months, feeling very frustrated and defeated we removed it from the market. In March we decided to try again and found Melissa through a referral. Melissa sold our house in 2 days at an open house. The process of selling our home was simple thanks to Melissa! With her experience and knowledge she has been able to offer great advice (things we definitely would not have known to look for or ask) with looking for a new home and building.

It was a pleasure and a joy to work with Melissa. She was untiring in her efforts to find the right home for our family. She took a significant amount of time in understanding our needs and very ably translated them into a flexible but highly focused strategy. Melissa first helped us identify the neighborhoods which best suited our needs and then showed us several houses which met our initial criteria. Once we decided on our choice, she tirelessly worked with us answering numerous questions and serving as a persistent liaison with the sellers realtor. Her real strengths during this process were her fabulous communication skills and relentless pursuit of answers and solutions to any problem that arose. There were numerous steps all through the buying process that Melissa expertly guided us through, always exhibiting a professional touch and a smile, including addressing all of our questions to the sellers realtor and aptly interpreting those responses from the seller. Result: we were able to buy the house of our dreams! Melissas expertise with and referrals of competent local contractors have made this buying experience extremely pleasant and unmatched throughout our thirty years of buying and selling real estate. We highly recommend Melissa to anyone looking to buy or sell their home in the Raleigh area. You wont be disappointed with her knowledge of the industry or her communication and expert negotiation skills! Shes the best!

Melissa was amazing to work with! She is very outgoing and knowledgeable in her field. We have bought and sold homes over the years with different realtors, but this was by far the best experience we have had with a realtor! I didn't have to worry whether things were being taken care of because she was so proactive at every step, without being pushy about anything. She was consistently easy to contact and responsive to any issues that came up. We built a home this time around and it was our first experience with building. We had a major problem with the house that went undetected through the process due to no fault of hers or the inspector. We contacted her for advice in how to resolve the issue because it went so far beyond the scope of typical warranty repairs. We didn't expect much since we had already closed on the home and her job was really done at that point. Not only did she walk with us through each step of resolution, but she was very proactive and took the initiative to contact the builder herself. Her expertise helped significantly in negotiating a very difficult repair. The builder immediately responded and handled every detail in a timely manner. I think her focus on relationships is what ultimately has lead to her success as a realtor. We will definitely call her in the future for any real estate needs!

Melissa Elliott had the impossible tasks of selling our home in an area that was pretty stagnant in regards to home sales. We had previously signed with an agent for 12 months.... The one who claimed to be ahead of the curve with the "Coming Soon" slogan and repeated advertisements on the radio and TV. After two failed attempts of our home being under contract and then falling through, we were referred to Melissa Elliott by a family friend. Thank goodness we met her!Our initial meeting with Melissa was very impressive. Instead of telling us of how difficult it would be to sell our home, she listened to our needs, how things had progressed previously with our former agent and where we wanted to be in the future. She never pressured us to move forward with signing an agreement but rather wanted to make sure we were comfortable and completely understood what she could offer us. Once we agreed to move forward, Melissa was on the ball getting the appraisal completed, professional photos scheduled, and an open house event scheduled all along ensuring we were aware of what she was doing to get our home sold. We were impressed that Melissa kept in touch sometimes daily to keep us updated of potential showings and was always available for any questions we had along the way. After four months, we were under contract. And although the buyers' agent was quite difficult to deal with, Melissa kept her cool and saw us through the sale of our home and into our new one. Melissa had made what we believed was impossible, possible and we were soon moving and on our way to where we wanted to be. We believe Melissa has the best program to get your home sold with a thorough knowledge of the real estate market in the communities she serves.Even though we have been in our new home since January, Melissa keeps in touch with us. This truly demonstrates the importance of those relationships that she builds and how much she appreciates you as her clients. She is an impeccable agent; one who we without a doubt recommend to those wanting to sale your home with a trusted, caring, reputable professional.
