What Our Clients Say About Us


Melissa (Missi) went above and beyond routine realtor services to help us to sell our house. After we had to move away from the area, she insured that our home was well taken care of while unoccupied (checking in after showings to make sure all doors were locked, taking trash to street after lawn care was completed, keeping plants cut back on walkways) along with much more. Will definitely recommend her to others in the Baton Rouge area looking to buy or sell!

Thank you, Missi!

December 2021 - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐- Sara Loquist

Words cannot express our experience with Melissa. She went out of her way on many occasions dedicating countless hours to assisting us. Always on point, Melissa was honest, & forthright, with an expert eye for detail. She was very knowledgeable about her profession & the area. She was always patient & able to take a phone call or answer a text, answering every single question we had in a quick & perceptive way. A very energetic realtor who won't give up. We never had to wonder what was going on because she always kept us informed. It was seamless with her expertly guiding us through the process. By doing this she greatly helped reduce the stress & anxiety that often comes with the process. She's a deal maker who gets the job done! We would definitely suggest her to our friends & family who wish to buy or sell a house. We were lucky to have her as our realtor and will happily utilize her skills in the future.
