"We reside in the UK and have a very limited understanding of how the property market operate in the US, we had to trust fully in our Realtor, Compass Florida LLC. We had a few things to contend with along the way, but Melinda and her team dealt with them all in a very efficient manner, communicating fully with us throughout the process. In the end, we emerged having achieved our full sale price and very happy with the service we received. I cannot speak highly enough of Melinda and her whole team...Thank you!" - Ian and Kay W

"I know that selling a property can be a chore, which is why I came to 2 different real estate companies, but none of them were able to make any progress in the years I worked with them. The Luxury Homes Group was able to get the job done in a month. Ican't believe how easy the sale process was with your team. You have been fabulous the whole time and I would highly recommend anyone looking for a Realtor to work with LHG. Thanks again for everything you've done to get things done!" - Irina B

Is there a place for 10 stars??" - Gert W.

★★★★★
"Melinda was extremely friendly and warm, full of knowledge, and made us feel 100% secure with the process as first-time homebuyers. We ultimately purchased a home that we were unable to see in person, but Melinda was sure to do virtual tours with us (and did so for a few other houses until ours came along). Her attention to detail and honesty made us feel completely confident in buying a house we hadn’t even stepped foot in. We are truly in love with our new home and beyond grateful for Melinda. We would recommend her to everyone we know!" - Erin

I highly recommend Melinda to anyone looking for a flawless real estate experience." - Christie D

"I don't think there are words that can fully describe how wonderful Melinda is and how much she has done to help me. I have had three real estate transactions with Melinda in the past three years, two purchases and one sale. My husband and I decided that we wanted to get a place in St. Pete Beach to get away from the cold winters in the Midwest. We were looking at homes and realized if we wanted to be on the water, a Condominium was what we could afford. We were ready to put a contract in on the first one we saw but changed our minds as we were about to sign (did not have a realtor at that time) and Melinda was there as part of the transaction. We were so lucky as Melinda understood our concerns that day and without a plan, took us to look at three more units. Within that short time, she figured out who we were and what would work for us and took us to the one that felt right. We put in a contract and Melinda helped us every step. We knew no one in the area and she helped guide us through everything. Even after we closed Melinda helped with questions months later. While we were at our place in St. Pete Beach we decided this was where we wanted to be and would not move back to the Midwest. We decided since we would be there full time it would be nice to buy a unit in our building that was on an upper floor and more updated. Melinda helped us navigate the units that came up for sale, and again we found just what we wanted and put our current unit on the market. With Melinda's help our unit had a contract for well over asking price within 3 days. There is a lot of emotion that goes on during the process of buying and selling and Melinda was kind and caring throughout. For reasons I won't go in to, just a few days before closing on the new unit we had to cancel. It was a very challenging time, and again, Melinda was there, helping, caring and getting me through. The first unit was sold but there was no purchase at that time. After a few months I decided that it was time to try again as I wanted to purchase another Condo. Melinda worked with me, I saw countless units through zoom and in person and almost put in contracts on more than one occasion, but kept stopping at the last moment. I believe many realtors would have stopped answering my calls and texts, but Melinda always came through with kindness and laughter. After nine months and countless units (and did I mention that she has many clients, is always busy, but never makes you feel that there is anyone she's working with but you), the perfect one was found having everything I needed within budget. This wasn't an easy transaction but she was amazing, helped when I was panicking at the closing and was nothing but supportive throughout. She even helped remove items after the closing that shouldn't have been left. I know this is a long review but it's hard to get a full picture without some background. Melinda is absolutely the best Realtor in any location and she will always be my Realtor." - Mary

★★★★★
"And a huge THANK YOU to you. You made the condo sale so easy and we loved working with you. You went way above and beyond in EVERY aspect of the condo sale and after!

"We were looking to relocate from MA to FL. Decided to come out for a weekend and was referred to Melinda the day we arrived. Melinda contacted us immediately and we gave her some areas we thought we’d be interested in living in. In that short amount of time she arranged a full day of showings that met all our criteria in each town on our list. She was extremely friendly and warm, full of knowledge, and made us feel 100% secure with the process as first time homebuyers. We ultimately purchased a home that we were unable to see in person, but Melinda was sure to do virtual tours with us (and did so for a few other houses until ours came along).

"Exceptional, Professional, Knowledgeable! Melinda is extremely KNOWLEDGEABLE and understands this market in an unusual and difficult time - for both buyers and sellers. Wanting a beach house, we watched a shrinking inventory and changing prices for many months before the pandemic. Especially in the beach areas. So, we had to act quickly once we found our beach bungalow. Melinda is ORGANIZED and EFFICIENT, making sure to communicate and respond immediately. This is extremely important in such a difficult time when everyone is anxious about making real estate decisions. Having confidence in your realtor who understands time is of the essence is so important. We will be working with Melinda to list our gulf front condo. She knows this market and puts her clients first to get through what can sometimes be a frustrating process. Melinda’s EXPERTISE made our buying experience a complete success and stress free." - Frances and John F

★★★★★
"Organized, Timely and a Great Person! This is the second property we have purchased with Melinda. I highly recommend her to anyone looking in the area. I can't say enough about what a wonderful agent she is. We live out of state and she worked with us via phone, video and email to find our perfect home. She has made our dreams come true and can't imagine this journey without her. You WON'T be disappointed!!!!"" - Mike and Michelle G.

★★★★★
"Melinda Persuitte guided my husband and I through the process of buying a beach condo on Sand Key beach, and I cannot say enough good things about her. We found her to be open, honest, trustworthy, fun and extremely professional. No item is too large or too small for Melinda to handle. She was willing to schedule a viewing for anything and everything that we wanted to see, and I always found her to be honest in her opinion of the 'pros' and 'cons' of every property. We enjoyed working with Melinda, and we would definitely use her services again" - Dana
