Fantastic experience: We recently decided to sell our house in Stafford VA while living in the Southwest. Selling a house remotely can be a daunting experience, however, Melissa made navigating these challenging waters easy. She helped us find reputable contractors to make repairs, remained available despite a 3 hour time difference and sold our house quickly. When difficulties arose, she made sensible recommendations and offered options. We have had quite a few homes over the years but this was the first one we sold for across the country and she made it as seamless as possible. Whether selling or buying I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again.
Fantastic experience: Melissa was fantastic to work with. She truly represented her client while consistently working toward a win-win transaction, even when things got tough.

Deals don’t always go perfectly in real estate, but knowing you have an agent on the other side, who stays solution-oriented and collaborative makes all the difference. Looking forward to the next one.

Fantastic experience: I worked with Melissa on a transaction that could have easily gone sideways. We had some issues come up on inspection that would have killed the deal with a less experienced and knowledgable agent on the other side. Melissa handled the issues with professionalism and grace.

We were able to quickly list our home and get an offer on the table within two weeks.

We agreed on a sale price that was absolutely in our range and the transaction was silky smooth. If you are looking for a representative that knows the business and is an amazing human being, then Melissa should definitely be your choice!

Fantastic experience: My wife and I have bought 4 properties so far all with different real estate agents. Melissa was and is by far the best real estate agent we have had. She answers my untimely calls to this day when I have a real estate question. One experience that showed her dedication to finding a client the right home was when we wanted to see a house but the door code was not working. In the middle of trying to figure out the code it started pouring rain. Melissa stayed outside in the rain to figure out the code even after we told her it was ok and we would just go look at the next house. She stayed until she got the code to work. If you have the opportunity to have Melissa as your agent take it. You won’t be disappointed. The next time we buy in Virginia it will be with her. -Andrew Burkhart

Fantastic experience: Melissa Longton was such an excellent realtor. She went above and beyond her duties as a realtor. She made the process of buying a home at the height of Covid a very enjoyable, stress free and fun process. She gave us honest feedback and made sure we had all the information about the homes we were interested in. She had our pocket books and interests at heart and was very professional. We have known Melissa and her family for over 20 years and are good friends, but she was able to separate the home buying experience neutral and professional with a flare of fun. We loved our experience with Melissa and definitely recommend her as everyone’s realtor. With so many great qualities, some of which are, professionalism, honesty, genuine, trustworthy, kind hearted, fun and such a joy to be around are uncanny! Who wouldn’t want those qualities when trusting someone with one of the biggest purchases/decisions of your life. We love Melissa Longton and are very grateful for her. We love love love our home! Thanks Melissa for guiding and directing us in the right direction and for making buying a home fun and stress free!
Fantastic experience: Best experience purchasing a house ever! Mellisa Longton went far and beyond in going the extra mile to find the perfect house for my family. Once we found it, she aggressively ensured that everything went smoothly, taking care of everything. She even set us up with a painter to have the house painted before we moved in, saving us over $10k for the painter. Mellisa is our realtor for life!!!!
Fantastic experience: Melissa is amazing! As a recently separated military member in the middle of covid I had a job lined up out of state from my home of record. However, I had no idea where to really start as a young first time homebuyer especially being on the other side of the US at the time. This is where Melissa comes in. I blasted out emails to many realtors in the area but none of them clicked with me like she did. She’s extremely knowledgeable, resourceful, and very honest. It was also nice that I never felt pushed to make a decision. Which was so important especially when going through such an important process. She made time out of her day to be able to talk to me from coast to coast with pictures and phone calls all trying to figure out what I was looking for to have some places lined up for viewing when my and my family arrived. Even after finding a great home for me and my family she is still easily accessible whenever I have had questions and even reaches out to check in. Melissa Longton definitely knows her stuff, is friendly and fun to be around, and makes sure she takes all of your needs into account as best as possible. As long as I will be able to, she will be my realtor of choice!
Fantastic experience: Where do I start. She was my eyes and ears at the beginning of my home buying process. I was away in another state when I found the home I really wanted, during that time she went by the house, sent photos, videos and gave me her honest opinions. She is straight forward and honest and I trusted her throughout the entire process. I will continue to use and refer her as my realtor.
Fantastic experience: Melissa is the real deal when you are looking for a realtor. She is super kind and patient, she always goes above and beyond for her clients.
Fantastic experience: When my wife and I were looking to purchase our forever home we called on Melissa. We had very specific timing, price and financing requirements during an extreme sellers market. Melissa never blinked. She worked tirelessly and made us feel like we were her most important client. She found us our perfect home. We were extremely pleased with everything she did for us and can highly recommended her.
Fantastic experience: Mrs. Melissa was amazing! She really listened to what we were looking for! We had tried other Realtors and they kept sending us listings that were in the wrong zip code, out of our price range, or just not what we wanted. When we found Mrs. Melissa I told her literally one time what we were looking for and where and within a week of looking she had us in, viewing homes that were exactly perfect! When we found our forever home she got us in before it was listed not only once, but twice in one day! She helped us put our offer in that same night. Because of Mrs Melissa we are in our dream home. We Love her! On top of finding us our home, she continues to keep in touch with us! Personally dropping off holiday gifts and sending a quick hi! It’s been three years and she hasn’t stopped! You will NOT regret using her as your Realtor! 100% best experience we’ve ever had using a Realtor!
Fantastic experience: I cannot say enough good words about Melissa Longton as a realtor! She made a stressful situation pain free and seamless and was an absolute joy to work with!

Fantastic experience: Melissa assisted me on a number of occasions in searching for a residence and when I placed my current residence on the market. Each and every time Melissa was there when I needed to speak to her and addressed all concerns I had. I have never worked with a more professional realtor as Melissa. Furthermore, she is caring, thoughtful and always looked out for my interest even if it meant undermining gains she may have obtained. I would never hesitate to use her again and I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants the best representation possible.
Fantastic experience: If you are looking for the best realtor out there look no further, My son was in the market to buy a home and Melissa Longton exceeded expectations throughout the entire buying process, She was an ally, friend, and advisor that helped him navigate a difficult time to buy a house! I feel like she kept him “ahead of the curve” in every step of the process, which was entirely due to her thoroughness, honesty, integrity and dedication. I was confident I didn’t have to worry that my son would get ripped off somehow, i cannot imagine he would have had a better experience with any other realtor, and cannot wait to refer other people to her! Thank you Melissa for all you do.
Fantastic experience: Melissa is an amazing and knowledgeable agent. Very detailed in the contract to close process. Touring homes pointing out the buyers wants and needs and having her fight for the buyers best interest.
Fantastic experience: Melissa is a top notch realtor! She helped me throughout the entire process from suggestions on how to stage the house to the final sale. She was always responsive to my calls and questions and I trust her completely. We had to move (out of state) fairly quickly and Melissa formulated a plan and executed it perfectly. We were overwhelmed with the amount of people at our open house and had multiple offers before the day was over. We then spoke and she explained in detail about the offers (I learned so much) so we could make a decision on which one to accept. I highly recommend Melissa if you want someone who cares about their clients and goes above and beyond in everyway.
Fantastic experience: Melissa helped us sell our home. It was our first time selling and we had no idea what we were doing. Melissa handled absolutely everything. It was a surprisingly stress free experience. Melissa was organized, timely, and kept us informed. We ended up getting a great contract on our house. I highly recommend Melissa!!
Fantastic experience: Exceptional Realtor! I had the pleasure of meeting Melissa at an Open House during my chaotic home-buying search during early COVID and cannot recommend her highly enough!! From start to finish, she demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and a genuine commitment to helping me find an amazing home in Stafford county during a time of true market sparsity and outrageous overbidding. Melissa was incredibly responsive and her timely communication made the process darn near stress-free. Melissa possesses an impressive understanding of the local market. When it came time to making an offer, Melissa's experience and negotiation skills truly shined. She advocated for my interests, coached me on realistic expectations and was able to secure a fantastic deal that exceeded my expectations. I have worked with other realtors in the past and what sets Melissa apart from her peers is her personal touch. She took the time to understand my preferences, ensuring that the homes we visited aligned with my vision and not just show me a bunch of houses and see "what sticks"... I appreciated that. In summary, Melissa is a phenomenal realtor and human being who goes above and beyond for her clients. It's going on 3 years since i purchased the home and she still reaches out and stays in touch, just an amazing lady! If you’re looking for someone who combines expertise with a warm and friendly approach, look no further -- I wholeheartedly recommend Melissa Longton for all your real estate needs!

Fantastic experience: Melissa is so much more than a realtor, she became a great friend and we still communicate to this day.
