"Melissa was such a great agent to work with. We initially set a call with her to simply begin a relationship with an agent as we were toying with the idea of beginning to look for a place. Things didn't go exactly as planned, and the 2nd home we went and saw in person we knew we had to have. Melissa jumped to action with getting everything done in record timing, she went above and beyond and even got our offer submitted by 8PM *(we saw the house at 5PM). The closing process was a seamless one without any issues or problems and she was great at making us feel good about the decisions we were making. I feel like I can trust Melissa as an agent and a friend! We absolutely would work with Melissa in the future and recommend her to others as well!" -Janette P.

"We worked with Melissa Pilon and we highly recommend her. She is enthusiastic, professional, fun to be with, and was absolutely dedicated to getting us the house we wanted. She worked morning, noon, and night for us, and was incredibly responsive to any emails or calls. We eventually found ourselves in a bidding war with 25 other offers on the table, and we truly believe that Melissa’s suggested game-plan won us our new house. She came up with great ideas to help us secure the property, and pushed hard to get us to the top of the offer pile. She has great connections with very good people who were able to help us with our mortgage and City Planning Department needs. She is wonderful to work with, and if she hadn’t just bought us our forever home we’d call her the next time we want to buy a house! It was great to have a professional with a varied skill-set ready to work for us on every aspect of the home buying process. Overall, we would whole-heartedly recommend Melissa Pilon for your real estate needs." -Holly R.

"If I could give Melissa Pilon a hundred stars, I would. Her passion for matching people with the home of their dreams is so heartwarming and inspiring. She's an amazing listener. She got to know me (and my wishlist!) well and helped me find a magical little spot to call my own. But finding, I realize, is the easy part in California! The next step is beating out all of the other people who also want your dream home. This is where Melissa's creativity, persistence and heart shine. Thank you, Melissa. You made it fun, exciting and so much less stressful than it could have been. I recommend Melissa to everyone!" -Stephanie N.

★★★★★
"Our house needed some updating prior to listing for sale. Melissa held my hand the entire step of the way. Our place was stunning when the work was done and it was staged. Then is sold for a price over our best expectations. Can't do better than that!! She is caring, understanding, and helpful. She will take the time to "get" you and work with your vision, needs, expectations." -Claudia B.

"Melissa has been an absolute pleasure to work with through our apartment rental as well as our home purchase later on in 2020. My wife and I moved from out of state, and Melissa Pilon was amazing with her responsiveness in getting to know our tastes in addition to stacking viewings for the short time we were in town prior to our move. In fact she was literally the only realtor who responded to us. After living in the south bay area for a bit, my wife and I decided that we wanted to purchase a home and Melissa was extremely professional and knowledgeable in teaching us about the home buying process. It was great to work with someone that understood our taste and style. Melissa made it easy to purchase our first home, beating out 13 other offers while not being the highest bid. We are so happy in our new home and Melissa helped make it a reality!" -Peter V.

Melissa was wonderful at overseeing the entire project, making sure we stuck to our timeline and communicating with us every step of the way. We would work with her again in a heartbeat and were ecstatic with her level of professionalism, promptness and honesty about the process from beginning to end. Melissa exceeded our expectations of what a real estate agent can do and offers excellent customer service. We are fans for life and hope to work with her again in the future.

"We would give 100 STARS for this amazing real estate agent! Patient, professional, passionate, knowledgeable, dedicated, kind, considerate... there aren't enough adjectives to describe just how incredible this agent is from start to finish. Our checklist for a new house (aka: our "Unicorn") was over a mile long and we also had to go through the daunting process of selling our former residence. Melissa Pilon made the process so smooth and easy, and communicated effortlessly with us every step of the way. She helped us sell our condo for a premium (we had a lofty number in mind which we also deemed our "Unicorn" number) and absolutely NAILED IT. I highly recommend the "Unicorn" Real Estate agent because she can help you find your dream home too! We will definitely work with her again!" -Matt P.
