Melissa was an absolute pleasure to work with! She is extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of the real estate market, from staging a house to comparable pricing in the neighborhood. She is very professional and especially articulate in dealing with the often difficult and ignorant sellers (myself included!), whom I’m sure make her job more difficult than necessary.
I knew nothing about the pre-listing requisites of de-cluttering and staging and my only advice to others is to listen to your agent as she knows best, not yourself. Why on earth wouldn’t buyers want to look at my endless array of family photographs and trinkets, I asked myself, and marvel at the un-matching furniture that was in the house at the time, of which most and other items were completely displaced. Our house must have looked similar to a junkyard pre-Melissa and a beautiful up-market and contemporary, sellable house, post-Melissa.
Melissa’s staging advice was a huge factor in starting the ball rolling with regard to listing the house and getting traffic in the door, along with her excellent photographic skills.
For five long months I whined and complained about the various agents and their buyers not being serious, the inconvenient showing times and all my efforts to keep the house spotless for nothing, and all the while Melissa kept her composure and patience and really, I could not have done without her, she is so affable and can work people so well, and I sincerely thank her for her endless advice on house improvements, both inside and out; she sold our house, not us.
Helen Adams Realty is extremely fortunate to have Melissa Brown in their employ.
Feel free to use this testimonial wherever and however you can!
Sincerely,
Ever Grateful Caroline and Dan Isenogle
