Meet Melissa
Local, thorough, genuinely helpful
A Flagstaff REALTOR® who explains every step — and sees the details coming.
Melissa represents buyers and sellers across Flagstaff and Northern Arizona. She runs a transaction the way it should be run: deadlines tracked, paperwork organized, and complications addressed before they become problems — a habit shaped in part by roughly ten years of prior paralegal work.
It also means she is comfortable with the circumstances that make some sales harder than others — an inherited home, a divorce, an out-of-state family, a property that does not fit a standard template. And she is equally comfortable walking a first-time buyer through what a BINSR is, without making them feel behind.
Melissa is a licensed REALTOR® and is not an attorney. She does not provide legal advice.

When a sale involves more than a standard contract
Probate sales, estate administration and divorce transitions all add layers to a real estate transaction: additional parties, additional documentation and timelines set by someone other than the seller.
Melissa's prior paralegal experience, including probate and family-law work, makes those layers familiar territory. She knows what tends to be requested, how long steps often take, and how to keep a file organized while the attorney handles the legal questions.

Seller strategy
What could your Flagstaff home sell for?
An automated estimate does not know that your roof was replaced last year, that the lot backs to forest, or what actually sold two streets over. Melissa prepares a property-specific analysis and walks you through the reasoning behind the number.
