Education
Licensed originally in 2006, she rendered her training through a top-producing Hall of Fame Team where her skills developed at a rapid pace promoting her to Official Team Negotiator for all incoming contracts and negotiations. It was only natural that she'd form a team of her own at Compass, Team Shaughnessy!
While the average agent sells 7 homes a year, Melissa's experience rendered a more aggressive approach handling 30 contracts/month and roughly 300 contracts/year. She's seen every transaction there is and aims to make her clients' buying/selling experience with her the EASIEST transaction of their life.
Melissa has an unparalleled reputation for getting listings sold that failed to sell previously, in record time, for top dollar, and often times even resulting in multiple offers. Melissa's background in home flipping and being a top listing agent for 20 years has made her acutely aware of exactly what will illuminate each home to its highest potential, netting her grateful clients the high possible profit on closing day.
Whether it's a home you wish to find, or a home you need to sell, contact Melissa today for the real estate experience you deserve!

"I was fortunate enough to start working with Melissa after struggling with another agent to sell my Midtown condo in early 2021. Up to that point, my unit had sat on the market for over 9 months with several price reductions and only a few showing interest over the entire period. When I finally made the switch to Melissa, she got to work quickly, recommending that we make a few changes, and re-listed my unit within just a couple of weeks. Within five days of being on the market, we had competing offers and were under contract shortly thereafter. In a matter of weeks, I went from a hopeless seller to a very happy one, all thanks to Melissa. I have since worked with her on a few other transactions with equally impressive results. I highly recommend her to my friends and family, all of whom have shared similar experiences. She is tenacious, meticulous, incredibly knowledgeable, and an absolute pleasure to work with. Two thumbs up, 5 stars! - Jacob (Seller/Buyer, Atlanta)"

"Melissa was amazing from moment one! She's worked with many of our friends with their home purchases and came highly recommended which now seems like a total no-brainer. Her knowledge of up-and-coming areas and how future city developments could boost property value was invaluable for first-time home buyers such as ourselves. Besides that she's funny, nice, and so easy to ask what I'm sure are absurdly pedantic questions :) After we closed she assured us that we could contact her with any questions and that she would advocate for us if we had any issues. We will most assuredly be contacting Melissa for all of our future real estate endeavors. Thanks Melissa! - Two incredibly grateful homeowners"

"Melissa worked with me for 6 months and found me my dream home. Her knowledge and expertise exceeding my expectations. She was always very available and willing to attend appointments when I wasnāt available as my work schedule is hectic. This was my first home and having Melissa on my side alleviated stressors that arose and made the process of purchasing a home as easy as possible. Thank you again Melissa :)

"As a first time home buyer , I was pretty lost on all of the knowledge and experience of the entire process. Choosing Melissa to represent me was the best choice I could have made. She not only found the perfect home for me, but it was everything else where I truly appreciated her work. She broke down EVERY aspect of the entire process to me. She was patient with me, but persistent and diligent in doing anything and everything I asked without hesitation. And in an extremely fast manner. I would never want to use anyone other than Melissa when going through a buying or selling experience"
