Goes above and beyond

I'm so glad that I was referred to Melissa and grateful for all that she did to get the home sold quickly and at the top of our price range! This was a challenging situation: the home was in a trust created by now-deceased parents and my co-trustee and live in separate states outside of California. Melissa handled this difficult situation with care and grace. Thanks to her, we started the updating process in February, listed the house in March, and closed in April. She suggested the updates that were the best investment to add value to the home, managed the workers, and spent her own time shopping for the items (such as plants, light fixtures, carpet, etc.) that we needed to make the house shine. She arranged for the staging, appraisal - basically whatever we needed to get this done. She did all of this without charging us anything above her selling commission. Her strong skills in managing renovations, marketing the property, and negotiating got us a price that was above what we had hoped for. We are grateful for her work!

I’m A naval officer now stationed in San Diego as of December 2022. Melissa came highly recommended by a few of my colleagues who've used her while relocating on PCS orders. I was stationed in JAPAN the last 4 years of my tour and received orders to San Diego. I wanted to buy a house and never thought I’d do it without physically being present. Melissa eased all my nerves and handled the entire home search, negotiations, inspections not to mention her advice was golden to me. She helped me make reasonable sound decisions with my purchase and negotiated an Unbelievable deal in a great location in a high rise located in downtown San Diego by PETCO park. She had my unit cleaned and met me with a large welcoming basket and Champaign! There is no questions her skills and expertise. She understood my language and worked with it. I will always recommend Melissa Huk to all my military friends. I can’t find all the words to thank her enough. Michael F.

“Super knowledgeable Agent”

She was an awesome help with everything! PCSed from Japan and she made the process so much smoother. She was my biggest asset while transitioning from my realtor, inspector, negotiator and exceptionally knowledgeable in her profession. Highly recommend her!

My experience with Melissa was awesome.

Melissa exceeded our expectations throughout the entire selling process. She was an ally, advisor, and consistently great communicator. Her previous experience was a huge benefit as we managed the market and our own expectations. She fully understands the nuances of buying and selling homes so she anticipated our needs, was proactive about solving potential problems, and navigated us through it with expert advice and a smile. We are grateful that we chose Melissa to help us sell our home. Not only did we get an excellent realtor, we also gained a friend.

Melissa is definitely an agent in a class all on its own. We had a very difficult situation as my mother has dementia and didn't really want to leave her home in Poway CA. However with her failing health and living almost 11 hours away just made things difficult in caring for her. This hasn’t been a very easy process for many months and yet Melissa was gracious and very patient rendering a helping hand wherever she could. We had a very difficult situation with an EXP agent who took advantage of my mother and had her sign a contract against my advice. I'm gonna spare all the awful details but I can tell you right now I will never use EXP realty they are a shady organization and difficult to get a hold especially the agents broker. Fast forward Melissa Huk came highly recommended so we ended up hiring Melissa as our listing agent on my moms zoo way property. My moms house was in dire need of updating. Melissa made some suggestions that I wasn't really sure would help us in this current market however, Melissa asked that I trust her process. I gave her full rein to do what she needed to in order to sell fast for top dollar. Melissa’s sound advice surely paid off! There isn’t any way we would have sold it for what we did in the condition it was in. If it weren’t for Melissa's expertise and her design techniques I know it would have just sat. Melissa had a whole team of people from contractors, stagers and painters that were able to get it up and going completely in 2 weeks. Melissa renovated and updated the home so beautifully. Her staging was above and beyond. Once my moms home went live we got an offer in less than a week over list price. We are truly grateful to Melissa for her experience and compassion while walking me through some of the most difficult things that I've ever had to deal with especially having to care for my mother. So, Melissa thank you for caring so much about us and the process!

Today, I closed escrow on the sale of my house! Exactly 4 years ago I was given Melissa Huks name as a buyers agent. Not only did she help me get a great deal when buying this home she became a good friend and outstanding designer. Melissa, designed everything from flooring, decor, kitchen, counters, lighting, painting and so much more. Melissa did an outstanding job so much that the buyers asked me to compliment her on the remodel. She has always stayed in close contact with me all this time always asking if I needed anything. Because I live alone, no kids or family local she has always invited me over for Thanksgiving as she also did with her other clients celebrating the holidays alone. So, fast forward 4 years I had made the decision it was time for me to retire from General Atomic’s as an engineer and start a new chapter in my life. I absolutely didn’t want to do this without the help from Melissa. Melissa educated me where we are in the market and she listed my home for sale. I have to say I wasn’t happy with how quickly the market changed for me as a seller which has be very difficult to swallow. Melissa Kept my expectations in check and the transaction on track. She didn’t allow the buyer or the market to dictate what she knew we could get and I had to trust in the process. She encouraged me to stay strong made tweaks here and there but she always knew where we were and how to move the home in such a tight market. Although we didn’t get exactly what I had hoped we got way more than what the previous buyers were offering and I credit Melissa for all of this. She is a cut above the rest especially with a shifting market. Melissa was always available to answer my calls and calmed my expectations and frazzled nerves. I can’t even thank her enough for her incredible negotiation skills market savvy knowledge and spot on market predictions. Thank you for everything Melissa I honestly can’t thank you enough!! I’m so grateful to you!

My review is one well worth writing. My wife and I are going through a divorce and both of us had to find independent agents to interview and provide to the courts. We interviewed 3 when Melissa came HIGHLY recommended. We both met with her during a 1 hr long interview and we both immediately felt she was definitely a well rounded agent extremely through and we both hired her on the spot. We lived in a brand new build for about 2 years and loved the community situated between Carmel mountain Ranch and Rancho Penasquitos. The market started to drop in pricing quickly and Melissa knew time was of the essence. Melissa made many suggestions to help us prepare and sell over our competition from Staging, light painting & artwork which definitely paid off. Melissa had her own interior designers and stagers who gave a great deal of time perfecting the picture perfect photogenic home. Melissa, never once let us down, she guided us through the process effortlessly and with great precision. Her negotiation skills were phenomenal at best. Melissa didn’t just sell our home she built relationships and the biggest one is the love my son has for her. When the stagers staged our sons room which was nice our son felt like he didn’t have his own room anymore and with they divorce Melissa was concerned he was losing something he needed during that time and it was his own personal space that was all his. Melissa made immediate changes making him feel like he was back in his old room again and even had him pick out his bedding and photos. I just can’t say thank you enough for helping me navigate through this difficult time and helping me transition to my new norm. You Melissa, truly are an exceptional agent!

I had just moved to San Diego after joining the...

I had just moved to San Diego after joining the Navy as an Officer and being stationed here with absolutely no knowledge of how anything worked was a big stressor. After talking on the phone once with Melissa, she set me up an easy profile that same day so I could start looking at houses. I wanted something close to work as I work down on 32nd street, but I am also a bit picky in regards to how I wanted the house to look. A part of me gave up my idea of getting a house that I loved within my price, but just as I felt that Melissa came to me with the house I live in now! Now I have a wonderful home which I love love love, and Melissa made sure I didn't have to compromise my price! If you are looking for someone who will walk you through every step of the process, has connections all around San Diego (she helped me get in touch with interior designers and organizers), and someone who truly wants you to find a home you love, Melissa is the one! She is so knowledgeable in her work and has an undeniable passion for helping people find homes. She made the process so easy for me and did all the hard leg work so I could just focus on moving into my house! MELISSA IS AWESOME! I could not recommend her enough!
