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!

More than just a realtor

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!

Expect The Best, Get The Best

Let me start by saying I'm not one to write reviews for much of anything, but I feel Melissa is absolutely worthy of one. The first time I met Melissa was roughly 13 years ago when I was one of those lookey-loos, wandering into an open house three doors down from my home. My intention was to glean home improvement ideas for my own home. I went in set with my rebuttal to dissuade her from trying to sell my home and buy something somewhere else in a house and neighborhood I couldn't afford. I made it clear from the moment I walked through the door that I wasn't interested and she welcomed me in with open arms, and cookies (REALLY good cookies, might I add.) Melissa never tried to sell me and because of her laid back, no-nonsense way about her, we instantly hit it off. For YEARS after our first encounter, Melissa went above and beyond to make it known she was thinking about me and my young family. Yes, she was building relationships to help her become successful in the future, only the smartest people do, but she also was building a genuine friendship. Because of this friendship, I had promised Melissa roughly 7 years ago that if we were to sell our home, she would be the only person we would call. I'm certain she didn't believe me because, let's face it, how many people say something like that but don't deliver? Fast forward to April 8, 2022. Our family decided it was time to get out of dodge and I called on Melissa to help us sell. The house went on the market and within a week an offer was bid and accepted for $55K over listing price! Melissa was in constant contact with me. If I had questions or concerns, she was quick to respond and find a solution. When you choose a realtor to help you make one of the biggest decisions of your life, that person MUST take that task seriously. Melissa treated the sale of my house as though she were selling her own home. She made sure we were happy and educated. For that, I am eternally grateful.

Our family was moving cross country and needed a solid realtor to guide us in the crazy San Diego ma

Our family was moving cross country and needed a solid realtor to guide us in the crazy San Diego market. From the first conversation with Melissa I knew she was the best person for the job. Melissa is one of the hardest working people I have ever come across and always on top of everything. She knows the market and is a skilled negotiator. On top of that, Melissa is a good human. She goes so above and beyond for her clients and truly cares. I felt 100% confident in her feedback and guidance throughout the process, which was so important for us navigating the process from the other side of the country. We knew we were in for an intense, and potentially lengthy process given the current market. After a challenging series of events on a home (including dealing with a really horrible realtor on the seller side, which made us even more grateful for Melissa!), she promised there was a better house for us out there. She was right. We are currently in escrow on our dream home and that is all thanks to Melissa! If you have the opportunity to work with Melissa, you are one of the lucky ones. I feel like we hit the lotto by working with her!

Melissa is a great agent that always had us covered and took care of everything. In today's market she was able to sell our house over market value and get us into another under market value. Anyone can fill out paperwork, but a great agent negotiates on your behalf and that's what Melissa did.

Melissa expertly and patiently guided us through the first time home buying process

Melissa shared information and knowledge that you cannot get from neither Redfin or Zillow. Her connections with the realtor community also made her manage the bidding process very smoothly. During our search she would give us pros and cons of the properties that gave us invaluable information for our decision making.
