  • I would with zero hesitation recommend Melanie as a relator to anyone in the Boston area. As first time homebuyers, she made the overwhelming process in a very tough market easy for us. We have been looking for quite a long time, and Melanie was extremely patient throughout the process, coming with us to showings, learning our preferences, and conferencing after each open house as we spent months and months looking. As she got to know us, she helped us develop a strategy to find the perfect fit - and helped craft a winning offer in an extremely competitive market. She was exceptionally responsive and patient through all the countless texts and questions, and was with us every step of the way. Her professionalism was next level and we could not have had a better experience!

  • My fiancé and I recently bought our first home together, and we can’t imagine having done it without Melanie. From our initial meeting, Melanie was attentive, proactive, organized, and thorough. She listened to our wish-lists and our constraints, and was able to curate a portfolio of listings that would work for us. As everyone knows, it’s a very hard market to be a buyer in right now, but Melanie made it feel easy. She was attentive and responsive and helped us through each step of the process. She found our dream home in an off-market listing, and used her amazing negotiation skills to ensure that we could call this place ours. We are so grateful we had Melanie throughout this process, and will 100% be using her for any future listings/purchases we might have!!

  • Melanie was a fantastic broker and I cannot recommend working with her enough. Melanie guided me effectively through my first home-buying experience and helped me find and get the place that satisfied all of my needs. Her communication was always prompt, thorough, and extremely responsive. She answered any and all questions I had about the process, made herself personally available at all times, and worked tirelessly on our behalf all the way through closing. What set Melanie apart from other brokers was not only her hard work and responsiveness, but her comprehensive understanding of the market. Her knowledge and tactics were instrumental in getting the home I have always wanted. If not for her, I am not sure I could say I would’ve been successful in getting the place I wanted. She took great care to ensure we were well positioned for success. I would highly recommend working with Melanie if you have the opportunity - she is the consummate professional.

  • The thing that initially drew my husband and I towards Melanie was her warm, and genuine but confident personality. Finding a real estate agent who provides closed loop communication and sustains transparency while also being extremely personable can be difficult to find, but Melanie is exactly that. The person who we met during our initial meeting was the exact same person who helped us buy our first home. Melanie’s knowledge of the metro west area and how to navigate the real estate market is far beyond anything we could’ve imagined and we are eternally grateful.

  • Please look no further, Melanie Gundersheim is an absolute rockstar and there is truly no one else we would’ve rather worked with than her. When starting our journey with Melanie she listened carefully to all of our needs, gave us great advice and completely dialed in the type of house that would fit our busy lifestyle. When we found our home there was no stopping her, she busted her butt reaching out to the sellers, touching base with our bank, & doing full detailed research on the home, so we were informed on every single detail. There are so many wonderful qualities to Melanie its hard to even know where to begin. I would say the two things though that really make her stand out would first be her knowledge of the industry. She knows all the ins and outs of the real estate world (which we all know right now is tricky to navigate) but when you have someone as experienced as Melanie all our questions got answered perfectly, correctly & honestly. The second greatest part about her would be her responsiveness and the way she would respond. Since this is my husband & I’s first home of course we had all the first home buyer jitters. Melanie’s calm, cool & collected tone would constantly put us at ease. There were nights where I would call her nervous about a step in the process and she would assure me how normal my concerns were and how it was okay to not know every single thing about homeownership, thats what she was there for. To help us and guide us through all the twists and turns. Our new home had some high interest which created a bidding war. But again the determined woman that Melanie is guided us to make the best offers possible and she made sure we were comfortable with everything that we were doing. She was never pushy and always made sure we felt comfortable with our offers and that we stayed within our means. When Melanie called us and told us we got the house you could hear it in her voice that she was genuinely ecstatic for us. Working with Melanie was a dream and trust me when I say you will absolutely LOVE working with her! Thanks Melanie!

  • Working with Melanie was by far the best decision we made in our entire home buying process! From the start, she was patient and informative while also being so personable and easy to talk to. Having someone who we could easily communicate with (text, call, email, etc) that wasn’t overly formal was really important to us - this is such a big decision and she clearly cared about us as people not just a potential commission. We needed up buying off market and Mel was so crucial in that process, staying in communication with the sellers without being overbearing or rushing them and being creative in our offer while getting us the best deal possible. Closing day was bittersweet for us because it meant we weren’t going to chat with her all the time anymore, but she was a wealth of knowledge for any other tradespeople we might need go forward. We couldn’t recommend her more!

  • My husband and I had such an incredible experience working with Melanie on purchasing our first home in the suburbs! We were so nervous going in and felt like there were so many unknowns. Melanie guided us through the process and was there to hold my (anxious) hand every step in the way after we found our dream home. Melanie truly inspires trust and I am so glad we chose her to help us. She managed emotional negotiations with so much ease, she is a true pro. We got the sense she treats every transaction personally, and I couldn’t be happier with where we ended up.

  • My husband and I bought a condo with Melanie’s help as first-time homebuyers, and we couldn’t recommend her more. Melanie is an excellent real estate agent with top notch communication and coordination skills. She has clearly worked very hard to build relationships in the greater Boston community — she was highly respected by every real estate professional we interacted with on both sides of our transaction. When we arrived at the open house for our condo, we were greeted warmly by the selling agent because Melanie had already laid the ground work and reached out to express our interest. By the time we were ready to make an offer, Melanie had lightning-fast responses to our questions and made time on a weekend to talk through the components of our offer. Her expertise during this stage of the process was second to none. She helped us develop a competitive, thoughtful offer that we were comfortable with. When our offer was accepted, she guided us through the inspection process with a steady hand. No question or concern was too small, and we had many as first-time homebuyers. Our closing happened as scheduled, with no hiccups, which we credit to Melanie and the amazing professionals she helped us connect with. Now on the other side with our beautiful home, we understand why Melanie has all of these long, glowing reviews and 5 stars. We couldn’t be more grateful to her!

  • Melanie Gundersheim was an exceptional guide in our first home-buying journey. When we were first interviewing real-estate agents, her style of communication and depth of knowledge around the home-buying process thoroughly impressed us. She was able to tailor the options we received and even coordinated open house visits for properties which were otherwise not available for showing. Over the months we worked together, she helped us with her resourcefulness by sharing excellent recommendations for attorney, mortgage lender, home inspector, and home insurance. Melanie's professionalism and effective negotiation skills were instrumental in ensuring a smooth process with the seller's agent. Her politeness, patience, prompt communication, and dedication to our needs made this complex process feel much easier. Her magic single handedly took us through from our first open house to signing the last document on the closing day. We wholeheartedly recommend Melanie to anyone navigating the real estate market!

  • What an absolute pleasure it is to work with Melanie! From our first meeting, I knew she was the perfect fit for me to sell and buy with Melanie! I followed her guidance and expertise and got over asking within a few days of being on the market after the first open house. She and her team guided me through all the paperwork for selling and buying - and made sure all T’s were crossed and I’s were dotted. Melanie was in constant clear communication with me throughout the selling and buying process.She made what was supposed to be a stressful and overwhelming experience-SO easy, SO seamless and SO wonderful.I can’t recommend her enough! She is amazing! (Shout out to Margie too!)

To our surprise, our second offer was accepted. Melanie walked us through each step of the process with knowledge and professionalism. She was easily accessible at all times and alleviated our concerns. We would highly recommend Melanie to anyone looking to buy a home!

She went above and beyond to get us into off market houses and do walk throughs before open houses were even scheduled. She was always extremely professional and responsive and we knew that we always were able to put our best foot forward with her guidance and advice.

  • Melanie was the absolute perfect realtor for us in our home search. From the very beginning, her warmth and professionalism wowed us. Melanie has a structured process with her clients, which was so satisfying as approach. Crucially, she listened to our concerns and desires in a home and was patient in educating us through the home buying process. She would weigh in with her expertise when we had questions and always left us feeling like we had all the information we needed to make a decision. Melanie always made a point of attending visits with us, despite her incredibly hectic weekend schedule! Even when we had a few disappointing moments in our search, she was there to pick us up, redirect our strategy and offer us encouragement. She stayed with us through the closing process and was always super responsive. Perhaps most importantly, she has amazing contacts for everything! Lenders, attorneys, contractors, inspectors - Melanie literally helped us with all of it and each referral was better than the last. We had such an amazing experience with Melanie and have full trust in her. We would highly, highly recommend to any and all of our friends. We can't thank or refer Melanie strongly enough!

  • Working with Melanie was undoubtedly one of the best choices I made as a first time home buyer. Melanie's communication skills are nothing short of stellar. She has a remarkable ability to articulate complex information in an easily understandable way that helped me feel confident throughout the home buying process.Additionally, Melanie's supportive demeanor made a lasting impression. She was patient, empathetic, and encouraging throughout our communication. Understanding my time constraints, she was efficient (and flexible!) in communicating with other realtors to gather information and set up showings. Her positive attitude and the genuine care she showed in ensuring my satisfaction were truly heartwarming. It was like having a trusted advisor by my side, ready to offer guidance and support whenever needed.Furthermore, Melanie provided great insight and resources that went beyond the standard support experience. She anticipated questions I hadn't even thought of and provided answers to them, demonstrating her proactive and thoughtful nature. She also connected me to everyone I needed to complete the home buying process, and these recommendations became an incredible team of knowledgeable, reliable, and supportive people that made this process a stress-free breeze. In conclusion, Melanie's exceptional service is worthy of the highest praise. Her great communication, informative guidance, and insightful support are a testament to her professionalism and dedication to excellence. Melanie, thank you for your invaluable assistance and for being such a supportive presence!

  • Melanie was recommended to us through a coworker who had a wonderful experience working with her on securing their first home. My partner and I also have only the best to say about her. As first time homebuyers ourselves, we were nervous every step of the way. Melanie really helped ease our process and was extremely professional, kind, and confident. She helped us with our search, establishing timelines, assisting with open house visits, available for late night phone calls, contract structuring, the whole nine yards. We'll be reaching out to her again in the future for any of our real-estate needs & recommending her to all our friends. Thank you, Melanie, for all your help - it was very appreciated! - Nick & Liz

  • I could not recommend a realtor any more highly than I recommend Melanie. My husband and I were first time home buyers, and she was so encouraging, thoughtful, and knowledgeable at every step. She always knew how to help us structure the most competitive offer and always listened to our needs and feelings on each property. She is attentive and always responsive available. I have no doubt we wouldn't be in our first home without her!

  • I found Melanie through a Facebook group after asking for realtor recommendations. My fiancé and I are first time homebuyers and we had NO idea where to start! The comments flooded with 15+ recommendations for Melanie, so we took a chance and messaged her. Almost immediately, she messaged us back and we were able to set up a consultation the next day. Melanie talked us through the entire process and made us feel comfortable. She is extremely kind & personable and I honestly felt the vibes like she had been our friend for a long time, she's just that kind of person. Any time we had a question, she would text us back within the hour and always followed through on - her communication is literally insanely good. Melanie also introduced us to our entire team including our home inspector, loan officer, insurance agent, and real estate attorney. I've read that you should choose different people than your realtor suggests, but we fully trusted Melanie and everyone was incredibly helpful. From our first meeting to making and having our offer accepted to closing was less than 4 months. We did have a couple issues with the seller's agent and Melanie handled them swiftly and professionally. Truly, I don't know how we could have done any of this and secured our literal dream home without her help. I will be recommending Melanie to all my friends for the rest of my life.
