Kevin Rodriguez
Working with Melissa was a great experience for me. She was patient, never pushy, and was on top of getting all the information I needed. She set up all appointments and meetings so everything just went as smooth as can be. She also was very knowledgeable when it came to all my questions. Besides her experience, she is a very friendly and honest person who made me comfortable and confident in my purchase. I am beyond happy with everything and I would highly recommend her to everyone I know.
Ashley and Matt McLeish
My wife and I were long time renters and were nervous to enter the housing market. We were very excited, but knew we had no clue what we were doing. Thankfully, we were connected with Melissa who provided us guidance and mentoring through the entire process. Melissa was very knowledgeable, supportive, and responsive during our search. Sometimes we would see a house we liked and requested a viewing for the following day and within the hour we had a confirmation of our appointment, which was very helpful in a very competitive market. She also went above and beyond for us. Our search ended up spilling over to another state (where we eventually bought) and Melissa went out of her way to bring in other resources including herself to make sure we had everything covered. We enjoyed every minute of the process with Melissa and we are now happily enjoying our new home.
Diana and John
We purchased a house through Melissa at Deland Real Estate and strongly recommend her services. Throughout the process, Melissa was quick to respond and very knowledgeable regarding our frequent questions. We felt fortunate having Melissa represent our needs and goals during the back and forth negotiations which were complicated, due to the start of the pandemic. We were impressed with her dedication and attention and are grateful to have found our house. Thank you Melissa!
Madeline Struebing
I have had the pleasure of working with Melissa on both the purchase and, years later, sale of my single family home in Dorchester. Melissa is detail-oriented, exceptionally knowledgeable and focused on securing the best outcome for her clients. She goes above and beyond to make the experience as efficient and seamless as possible. I recommend her beyond a doubt and couldn’t be more happy to have her guidance and knowledge throughout the real estate process.
Terry and Tucker Aufranc
Deland Real Estate was a pleasure to work with from the inception of deciding to sell our home until the final day of the sale. Melissa Deland, with her partner, Jan Boyce, offered us their incredibly good advice throughout this process. Communicating with us in timely emails, texts, and phone calls kept us well informed on a daily basis as to how the sale was progressing. We have sold many houses over the past 50 years. This experience with Deland Real Estate was the best one we have ever had. I will happily recommend this team to all of my friends and family.
Casey and Cecily
We have had three wonderful experiences working with Melissa (2 as buyers, 1 as sellers) during which she has been upbeat, organized, super responsive, deeply knowledgeable of the Boston-area market, and, ultimately, greatly successful in meeting our needs. We have recommended her before and would unequivocally do so again!
Jamaal and Matthew Sebastian-Barnes
Melissa is AMAZING! We essentially asked her to move the sun, sky and moon to find us the perfect home that we could move into within a month, and she delivered in spades. We relocated from California to Massachusetts and had the keys to our beautiful new home within two days of arriving. If you're ever looking to purchase in Massachusetts we highly recommend her. Thanks, Melissa!
Charlotte Herrmann
I received very poor advice from a previous realtor resulting in my home not selling. Then my neighbors recommended Melissa as she had helped them both buy and sell. Working with her resulted in my home selling after only one open house. She was in constant contact with me throughout the process and answered all of my questions. She had all the knowledge and experience I needed. I would absolutely recommend her to any seller!
Kiran and Eric
We had a complicated situation where we were tasked with getting our dream home and trying to sell our old home, in a very short amount of time, in a less than optimal time of the year. Melissa gave us honest assessments of our options and helped us on both sides of the transaction. As a result, we feel that we got our dream home at the lowest possible price and received the best outcome on our sale. Thanks, Melissa!
Danny and Eliza
Thank you so much to Melissa for helping us get our dream home! We couldn't have done it without her. It's such a crazy process, but Melissa made it very easy for us. Thank you again for everything!
