A seasoned agent with over 21 years of experience and a gift for coaching buyers and sellers through transitions, Melissa Smith pours herself into every client, offering an elevated level of service that blends considerable market knowledge, a nurturing style and a high standard of professional integrity.
Exposure to the business through her mother’s interest in design and her father’s careers in banking and building nurtured Melissa’s passion for real estate from a very early age. She knew she belonged in a career that combined her head for numbers and strong interpersonal skills. After graduating from Florida State University with degrees in business and economics, she worked for a company brokering commercial space and later added a focus in residential real estate.
A resident of Cumming, Georgia, for 32+ years, Melissa’s strong area network and ties to the community make her a sought-after resource for a wide variety of needs, including residential resale, land for investment and commercial purposes, second-home investments and more. From first-time homebuyers to those needing guidance on real estate investing, Melissa enjoys finding a way to meet their needs. Her patience, her warm, generous commitment to treating clients like family and her insightful negotiation skills ensure that their interests are always front and center. A strong leader with a proven record of creative, outside-the-box thinking, she excels at providing grounded, supportive feedback that helps clients work through the emotional impact of moving.
Giving back is a priority for Melissa, and she financially supports Family Promise, in addition to suicide prevention and cancer prevention causes. A devoted wife, mother of three married children and grandmother of seven grandchildren, Melissa treasures time with her family when she’s not working with clients. She and her husband are active study leaders at Browns Bridge Church, and she finds relaxation in cooking, bike riding and boating. Secretly, she would love to work in a bakery!
