"Melissa does indeed make it happen!  We used another realtor to buy our home and that experience taught me how very important it was to have a realtor who is knowledgeable and who can be a partner in the purchasing or selling of your home.  After doing my homework, I decided that Melissa Murphy was the right choice.  Melissa helped me establish a plan for what needed to happen to put my home in its best light.  I followed her instructions to the letter and we listened to her guidance when it came to an asking price.  Our house sold in two weeks and the offer was great!  We will be forever grateful to have had her counsel.  She made what should have been a stressful situation into a true pleasure."

"Melissa Murphy is an excellent realtor. As first time home buyers we were quite nervous, but Melissa walked us through every step of the process, answered all of our questions and was incredibly patient and helpful. She worked hard to find the best house in our price range and never pressured us into a house that wasn't right. Once the offer was accepted Melissa continued to work hard to make sure everything was in place for a smooth closing. Additionally, we were thrilled by how plugged into the Bloomington community Melissa is. Her knowledge of the local housing market, businesses and service providers came in handy many times."

"Melissa Murphy was extremely responsive to our needs, going out of her way to find answers to our questions, returning calls immediately, and giving us advice that helped save us a lot of time and money.  We found her to be highly professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated to ensuring we were getting a good deal as both a buyer and seller. The icing on the cake was that our house sold in three weeks! We could not have imagined a better realtor and would highly recommend her!"

"Melissa has done a great job of guiding me through the first-time home-buying experience.  Her own knowledge and naturally inquiring style are backed up by excellent resources for answering any possible questions, as well as by an extensive network of service provider relationships that she can draw on for a client's benefit.  Perhaps her greatest asset as a Realtor, though, is her personality and ability to successfully interact with all of the parties to a deal.  I'm really pleased to be working with her."

"My experience with Melissa was most pleasant and financially rewarding.  My house had been previously listed for one year with very little interest shown in it.  Once that contract ended, I listed my property with Melissa.  She made some gentle suggestions and we moved in a different direction in terms of marketing and staging the home.  She had prepared the house and me for a different result, but I was astounded when it sold in SIX days!  We did not change the price, but now the showings were amazing and the home received more interest in one week than it had received in the previous year. I attribute this to the combined knowledge, commitment, and ideals of Melissa and the company she works with.  I was also grateful to be able to work with Melissa again in finding the investment of a lifetime in the purchase of my new "fixer upper".  Her faith and vision in the project was a real motivation."
