Melissa handled the purchase of our new house with calm and assertiveness, both of which can be challenging when the other party is an unreasonable seller. Since then we've referred friends and neighbors to her and heard nothing but good things. Highly recommended.

I have used other realtors in the past, and Melissa was by far the easiest to work with and extremely accommodating. She also recommended a lender who gave us a great rate. I would definitely use her again and I have already recommended her to friends looking to buy.

Melissa is the first person I recommend to any of my friends looking to buy or sell real estate in the Chicagoland area.

Missy is always professional, knowledgeable, and very easy to work with. She provided high-quality photos for my listing, was flexible in meeting my scheduling demands, and ultimately sold my home at full list price in 3 weeks!!! Thank you, Missy.

My mom's house sold quickly and with multiple offers she got her full asking price! Not only did she sell my mom's house she also found her the perfect condo! From start to finish, Melissa was a pleasure to work with.

Melissa was a wonderful Realtor! We had two families selling one home and she was so understanding--always available when you needed her. She was able to not just sell out current home, but find us the perfect home no matter what. She was an amazing Realtor and a wonderful person…we would definitely use her again!”

My brother went through Melissa and was so impressed with her, that when I needed a realtor she was an easy choice. I was looking to move on the north side of the city, and she found me the perfect home in Andersonville. She knew exactly what I was looking for and made the process so easy. She even recommended a great lender and attorney! I highly recommend Melissa Nowak to all my friends and family.

Melissa was a wonderful realtor! She helped us find our dream home, and for that, we can't thank her enough! She made the process easy and didn't pressure us to make any rash decisions. She was always available when we wanted to go see the house we ended up buying, even if it was last minute and after normal business hours.”

My husband works in a volatile profession, moving is a frequent part of it. We were looking at our 3rd cross country move, this time back to the Midwest. Melissa was just the Realtor we needed. Shopping for houses in a market we knew little about was so much easier with her assisting us. She is extremely knowledgeable about the Chicagoland area

Melissa’s combination of understanding, during such pivotal time in life, combined with sincere honesty about what needs to be done, could be done, and what to expect were so refreshing. With her advice, timing, and price analysis, our place sold in less than a week and while we were on vacation no less. She handled everything exceptionally professionally yet without all the unnecessary formalities of some agencies.
