I have worked with Melissa in several capacities and most recently she has assisted me in searching for a new home in the Issaquah/Sammamish area. She has provided me with excellent advice on pricing, the market, and what makes sense. Her non pressure approach, and open and honest communication has been so wonderful as I am looking for the "right" home not just any home. If you expect the best, work with the best, and Melissa is the best!!

We have been blessed with a wonderful experience working with Melissa Waller. It was a difficult time for us, as we were selling our daughters home as executors, after she passed at an early age. Melissa took on a heavy load helping to find contractors to preform modifications and repairs to prepare the house to show well. She was always professional, considerate, sensitive, thorough, and honest. We had a family member in the Sammamish area, but I was in Bellingham. We had a well-deserved high level of trust in Melissa and felt comfortable letting her handle the project, which saved travel time and hours on site. I am proud to offer this recommendation, and would be happy to discuss our experience with potential clients of Melissa.

Melissa sold our Fall City home in August of 2022. We were up against rising interest rates and the transition from a seller’s to a buyer’s market. Melissa did an excellent job marketing our home. She was always communicative, friendly, and professional. We got an offer and she negotiated it up to a great price in a changing market, all while helping to manage our stress along the way!
I would not hesitate to recommend Melissa to a friend or use her again in the future. Thanks Melissa!

Melissa helped pilot our house listing adventure through the challenging waters of the spring and early summer of 2022.
Throughout the whole process, she was a great resource and confidant – ready with suggestions about home improvements that made our house more attractive, suggestions about vendors, regular communication about market conditions, and helpful strategizing and calm. She’s a capable realtor, and best of all a thoughtful human being! ~ Doug & Jenny Whalen

We are so grateful to Melissa for her guidance in helping us optimize two transactions, including new construction, in a volatile market. She is not only an expert of all aspects of the buying and selling process, but she is also extremely thoughtful, committed, and trustworthy.
As we prepared to list our home, Melissa helped us optimize our space and prioritize small tweaks and updates to drive the most return. She provided customized silent-talker cards to highlight noteworthy features throughout our home, which made for a consistent and elevated experience for private showings. After we listed our home, we left town, knowing she and her team would check in on our home daily and take care of it as if it were their own.
Amidst the challenging housing market and rising interest rates, Melissa helped us negotiate strong terms on both transactions. And despite closing on our first home, and waiting for our new construction to finish, Melissa has continued to treat us as a priority. She and her team have been available to take us on construction check-ins and she has continued to provide invaluable advice throughout the process.

Melissa is perfection when it comes to a real estate agent. Aside from knowledge and expertise in her field, she is also kind and compassionate and will fight to the bitter end for her clients every need. She will fully ensure that every minute detail is taken care of and the end deal is in your favor. I cannot recommend her enough. If you are buying or selling a home, she’s the one!

When we decided to sell our home we interviewed a couple of agents. Melissa and her lovely family used to live next door to us, she knows neighborhood very well and we decided to talk to her as well. She gave us lot of insightful information and many suggestions on preparing our home for sale. We were skeptical about some of her advice, but decided to follow through. Everything worked out exactly as was planned. Melissa and her team helped us with removing some of the furniture and even found people that needed it. The sale process was quick and straight forward. After a weekend of open house, we had two very strong offers, both above asking. Melissa's team was very organized and closing went smoothly at the time and place that was convenient for us. Melissa did an excellent job and we highly recommend her as seller's agent.

I recently worked with Melissa on the sale of my how in the Klahanie Community in Sammamish. She is the utmost professional. From early discussions on listing and property prep, to staging for show, to all of the details of selling through to close, Melissa brought expert knowledge, attentions to detail, and a professional approach with excellent follow through. She guided me through the process, provided references to services that I needed to prep and move, and negotiated a substantial amount over list for the sale. I highly recommend Melissa if you are looking for a positive home selling experience.

Melissa Waller sold our house in Pine Lake, Sammamish. One of the hardest working people in the business. Melissa and her team treat you like family, and work as hard as they can for you. She was extremely responsive and very pro-active on communicating with us. She left us with a list of tasks to focus upon and prepare our home to show. This is where Melissa's connections started to add value. She brought in a stager to help us highlight the beauty of our home. And with our staging plan in place, she assisted in prepping the house for market. In addition, she knew how to market our home. The pictures on our listing made us almost regret selling the place! It blew us away when Melissa called just five days after hitting the market with a great offer on our house. We accepted the offer and Melissa was there to advise us every step of the way all the way up to closing. We put our trust in Melissa and it paid off. If you are going to sell or buy a house I highly recommend you go with Melissa and the Compass Real Estate Team. Good luck!

Watching Melissa work over the past few weeks has been awe-inspiring. Melissa knows the market in the PNW in such an intuitive way, and she has a plethora of connections that helped us through every step of the process. Her warm, inviting persona made us like her from the start. However, it was the way she explained how she planned to prep our home for the market that won us over. She helped us find the best time to sell, understand the changing landscape of fluctuating interest rates, and showcase our home in a way that allowed us to maximize profit. She staged our house (and coordinated EVERYTHING related to that) and helped us get a plethora of outstanding offers. The way she navigated our offers demonstrates her deep knowledge of the process, compassion for the people involved in the process, and savvy negotiation tactics. She helped us negotiate excellent terms all around, and in the end, we closed with a SIGNIFICANT amount over our list price. Melissa was always available when we needed her, and we are so thankful we chose her to sell our home. Melissa is genuinely one-of-a-kind awesomeness!

We had a wonderful experience working with Melissa selling our home! She was so patient with us from the time we first contacted her a year ago, to finally being ready to sell our house. She was there every step of the way, and was extremely responsive with all of our questions. Melissa shows a high level of professionalism and knowledge of the market, and she guided us on the best repairs and updates to make in order to maximize our dollars. We even used her excellent list of contacts to find the right vendors to prep and stage our home. We were thoroughly impressed with her negotiation skills, as we received an excellent offer despite some uncertainty in the market. Not only was she the one to get us the most money possible, but she was also so personable, accessible and just a delight to work with. During the process, she also helped our daughter purchase her first home in Seattle, negotiating the sale for under list price. We highly recommend Melissa Waller for all of your Real Estate needs!

Melissa is the best. She helped us prep for the market and then negotiate excellent terms and a significant amount over list price.

Melissa was both elegant and confident every step of the way. She sold my Squak Mountain home in Isaaquah for me at about 500% over what I paid for it.
She was knowledgeable about the process every step of the way and had multiple professional and/or reasonably priced people to support the process. Melissa was thorough, warm, intelligent…pretty much everything you would want in someone helping you to sell your house. She was also respectful of me and what I felt about the home I’d lived in for over 20 years.
You can’t go wrong with Melissa, if what you are after is good taste and results with a quick sale and a great price for your home.

My husband and I had Melissa Waller as both our selling agent and purchasing agent with our new home. She was very knowledgeable of the market, but very patient with all of our questions.

A shoutout to Melissa Waller who was my agent for selling my Klahanie house: Your easy, friendly demeanor mixed with your ability to completely take care of business while relieving the stress that comes with selling a home (her concierge service for contractors and scheduling inspection/repairs was such a weight off my shoulders!) and still being an adorable, hands on mom was inspiring… You are truly a #bossbabe that made me want to embark on this new adventure of real estate!
Can’t say enough about how her communication was on point… Reminders and all. Melissa truly gets the process.

In preparation for the overwhelming job of putting our home of over thirty years on the market, we interviewed four very capable real estate agents. Melissa stood out among them for many reasons. Upon our first meeting with Melissa, we found her to be genuine, personable and the most knowledgeable of the neighborhood and its market trends. It was clear that she was highly motivated to sell out home for top dollar. Her integrity was further confirmed by very high compliments we received from a fellow colleague. We also appreciated that she lived in the community and only a five minute drive away should we need anything. Her patience with our many questions was never ending!
Melissa did a fabulous job of getting our home in the best possible presentation for market. She made excellent suggestions (without going overboard!) and provided great resources to carry out minor jobs and repairs that ensured a successful listing. Choosing Melissa as our agent resulted in selling our home quickly, negotiating excellent terms and selling for a significant amount over the list price!
We are extremely appreciative for Melissa’s professionalism and highly recommend her services without reservations!

There aren’t enough great things to say about Melissa Waller! She is truly the calm within the storm that comes with selling a home.
As first time sellers, the process seemed quite overwhelming, but Melissa led us every step of the way. Her high level of professionalism matched with her compassion and empathy for her clients made her the dream realtor for us. Not only does she hustle, but her sincerity in wanting the best for my family was unlike anything I’ve ever experienced.
Melissa has centered herself around a stellar team of professionals that helped prep our home for market. She helped us come up with a realistic game plan and settled for nothing less than a flawless execution. Melissa’s guidance resulted in our home having multiple offers beyond asking price! Her support and devotion to my family didn’t stop after closing. Melissa lends her knowledge and expertise in all facets of the industry anytime you need it.
If you want the best possible outcome for buying or selling a home, you absolutely need to have Melissa Waller on your side. I’m lucky to have had her as my agent, and now as my friend.

We've been friends with Melissa for many years and watched her career flourish since she 'moved' into real estate. When we decided to sell our home, there was no question who would get us the best offer - Melissa has truly found her calling and is proficient and skilled at EVERY aspect of the process. She's built a great network of loyal contractors that enabled us to stage and list our home within 5 days!! Melissa educated us on what to expect, how to prepare the house for best showing, what dependencies we could proactively address, and ensured that we were informed and comfortable with each step. After we received multiple offers that were significantly over our asking price, Melissa negotiated a smooth closing and amicable terms for everyone involved! Thank you Melissa for your project management skills, attention to detail, sense of urgency (with a contingent purchase on the line), and passion for perfection. It was a pleasure to work with you and we wouldn't hesitate to choose you again and refer you to all of our current and future friends!

Can't recommend Melissa highly enough. We had a great experience with her as our sellers agent. We were moving fast due to an overseas move. But our dates kept shifting as well. Melissa was all over it and kept things moving forward.
Melissa gave us excellent guidance for steps we should take in preparation for staging and the listing going live. Listen to her. Her advice is top notch and put us in an excellent position.
Now I know the market was hot but Melissa kept us on the peak of the wave. When we received an early offer, significantly above list, Melissa provided excellent insights and advice on how we should approach it. We followed her guidance and are extremely satisfied with the results.
If you are buying or selling, go with Melissa.

I listed with Mellissa and within 20 hours I was under contract. The offer was significantly over listing price. I was willing to accept and move on but Melissa suggested we counter as we were about to go into the weekend and the listing was brand new. They not only accepted the counter but increased the offer beyond our counter. I could not be happier with Melissa and her team. We did everything remotely as we live in California. Definitely a five star team!

We were thoroughly delighted and impressed with Melissa Waller from before we even met her. We chose her to sell our house because of her great marketing strategy. From our first meeting right through until after our home sale was recorded her ambitious, vibrant personality met us with enthusiasm and determination every single time.
It was an absolute pleasure to work with Melissa and her whole team. We had very few questions because they covered everything from before market prep with excellent staging ideas, home photographs, brochures, excellent negotiating skills to get us a great price significantly over the asking price to completion and signing documents.
Melissa was there every step of the way and made the whole selling process seem easy.
We would very highly and enthusiastically recommend Melissa Waller and her team at Compass Real Estate.

After buying and selling several houses over my life, I found Melissa Waller to be the most skilled realtor I’ve ever worked with. She hired a company to stage the house, employed a brilliant photographer, and guided me through a pre-inspection in preparation for the sale. My house never looked so good. It went on the market on a Thursday morning and sold by Sunday afternoon. Melissa negotiated an amazing deal with excellent terms and a price that was significantly over the list price. She is professional, organized, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. I will be looking for a new home and there is no question what realtor I will hire to represent me - Melissa Waller. I highly recommend you hire her too!

The most crucial decision when selling your house is deciding which realtor to use. This decision defines the overall experience and level of happiness and satisfaction when all is said and done. After considering several agents, the decision for us was easy; we knew we wanted to put our trust in Melissa Waller. Melissa shows a high level of professionalism, drive, and care for her clients from the first moment you meet her. Melissa is very knowledgeable and strategic throughout the process to ensure her clients get the best possible offer. She positioned us to achieve the highest result in this market through her meticulous planning and preparation. Her expert negotiation skills resulted in multiple offers and ultimately a bid substantially over the list price. There is a reason Melissa continues to achieve record-breaking results for her clients. When we think about the word amazing, Melissa comes to mind.
We could not be happier and cannot thank Melissa enough for the service and results she achieved for us. We are confident Melissa will continue to provide excellent representation for her clients and achieve the highest marks.
We cannot recommend Melissa enough and will be telling anyone thinking about buying or selling a home to be sure and use Melissa.

Melissa is amazing to work with! We started our search last year but our search area was very restricted as we didn’t want to move out of Klahanie.
There was even a time when we were thinking to stop the search due to the nature of the market but she kept her focus on our requirements and was able to find us an off-market house in a very nice neighborhood.
She always responded quickly to texts, emails and phone calls. We really appreciate Melissa’s hard work in giving us a home to cherish for a very long time.

My wife and I have had multiple real estate related business dealings with Melissa Waller over the years. In response to having gotten to know Ms. Waller fairly well, and to having seen her in a variety of different, and in some cases quite challenging, situations; I say this: Sincerity cannot be faked. Melissa truly cares about the happiness of her clients. I, in fact, believe that this is her primary motivation and objective in her every work effort. She wants satisfied, happy clients. Attention to detail cannot be contrived. Melissa Waller is by far one of the most knowledgeable real estate professionals I have ever encountered (and I’ve tested her). I’ve never felt so comfortable and confident leaving the details of a close or of a financial transaction in someone else’s hands. I do not say this lightly, but my wife and I TRUST Melissa. This trust has been earned. We trust Melissa’s intention, her moral code, and her truly deep knowledge base. Melissa Waller is a very kind, refreshingly intelligent, extremely high-energy, well-connected in the real estate industry, humble, trustworthy professional who will pursue happiness on her client’s behalf until she reaches her and your objective. I do not, almost without exception, give recommendations. I very comfortably give this one today . Melissa Waller is an A+.

Having vacated the house during the five days of showings, I felt so secure knowing Melissa was there every morning and evening to take care of business and make sure my home was secure.

Melissa is an amazing real estate agent. We met with a few agents before deciding to work with Melissa, but deciding on her was easy – she clearly stood out because of her genuine interest in our family and what would make us happy, and her drive and determination to help us find our dream home. Through the entire process she delivered beyond our expectations.
Melissa went above and beyond by sending letters to numerous home owners that might be open to selling. She found and arranged multiple off-market showings and was amazingly helpful with understanding the considerations for an off-market home, which was new to us. When we finally found our new home, she again helped make us feel at ease while writing a strong offer that helped us get the home we wanted at a price we liked. We will definitely work with her again in the future.

Melissa is a fantastic agent for both buying and selling. As a buyer, this market moves very fast and Melissa was several steps ahead the whole time, which allowed us to buy our dream home with 6 other competitive offers and we won even with another offer coming in higher than ours. This was completely due to Melissa's meticulous work both with us the buyers and her work with the sellers agent. After buying our home, we then needed to turn around and sell our current home. Once again, Melissa helped through the whole process with preparing our house and listing it with great marketing. We were able to receive multiple offers in less than a week. We accepted a full list price offer after 5 days. On top of how great Melissa was with all of the technical aspects, she is just a great person to work with through the whole process.

It's easy to underestimate Melissa Waller. She looks like a cheerleader, absolutely lovely. But don't be fooled. There's an excellent brain beneath. She has skills in manipulating a market that befuddles many. We are getting older. Our cozy home on tiger mountain no longer worked for us. Once we decided to move in with our daughter and her spouse, we needed a real estate agent. At an open house,a Redfin employee pointed us to her. Mind you, this was a competing agent. We received a call shortly from Melissa and we have not regretted one moment.
She went through our house with a practiced eye, arranged for photos, including using an drone! She sold the house for $50,000 over the asking price! Did I mention it took her all of TWO days to do this.
Then on to buying a NEW house. We, along with Melissa, looked at many,many homes, all over the place. She never forgot what kind of home we wanted. She guided us through one disappointing choice, only to find an EVEN BETTER house. She fought, using a lot of knowledge, for us to get the house. Somehow, she beat out a cash offer and one other and we closed last week.
She answered every question and always listened. So, she sold one, bought one and the last sale of our daughter's home will be yet another success, brought about by this very professional and competent real estate agent.

We took a long time to decide on the agent that can represent us because we had some good and not-so-good agents in the past, and we knew how painful it is to work with "not-so-good" ones. And I am soooo glad that I decided to go with her.
She is not only insightful on the market including Klahanie area, but was very engaging and encouraging to advise us on what is the right things to do for my house. She was not afraid to stand up for our interest when we are dealing with contractors and other parties, and she always had our interest in forefront rather than her own. She helped so much on getting the house ready and be the real Single-Point-Of-Contact for all matters on this sale. She is very professional, knowledgeable, reliable, attentive, responsive and always available. (I often get her response within matter of minutes even if it is very late at night.)
I am highly recommending her to all my friends and I also recommend her for anyone who is looking for a long-term real-estate partner that you can trust.
She is, by far, the best real-estate professional!

We reached out to Melissa a few weeks before we wanted to put our house on the market. Melissa did a great job helping us get the house ready, hosting open houses, and highlighting the unique benefits of our home which resulted in several offers over list after the first weekend on the market and closing at $75k over list! She is a skilled negotiator and not only made sure we got a great price but also terms that helped the deal go through smoothly. She was super responsive to all of our questions in the process. Highly recommended!

Melissa was incredible throughout our entire process of purchasing a house as first time homebuyers. She ensured we understood what to expect, and was always very responsive. From the numerous phone calls and texts, to email exchanges, Melissa was on top of everything from the beginning and always made time for us!
When we walked away from the first house we were trying to purchase, she continued to put forth effort to help us find a great alternative that met all of our criteria. Once we found the house we really wanted, she provided great advice that helped us close the deal and purchase the house we wanted. We couldn't be happier for how smooth the negotiations, process, and paperwork went!

Melissa was so helpful during our search and home purchase process! She was extremely patient with us during weeks of searching for a home that met all of our "needs" and most of our "wants." She was available, responsive, easy to talk to, realistic and happy to reach out to anyone who she thought could be helpful. There were multiple offers on the home that we now own and she helped to ensure that our bid was successful. She also secured a repair credit for us in a very competitive market! We had an extremely tight closing deadline and at the last minute didn't appraise at purchase price due to a missing handrail. Melissa obtained a contractor on the weekend (next day) to come in and install one, and had the home re-appraised in time to meet our closing deadline (all while we were out of town)!

Melissa worked tirelessly with us over the last six months to help us find, secure, and close on our dream home. She put in the time and effort to send letters, knock on doors, and scour the listing services for just the right fit. Very few agents would go to those lengths these days!
With an on-market opportunity, she had a pre-inspection and contractor meeting lined up for us at the home within 24 hours to help us quickly assess the opportunity and be prepared to submit a strong offer. While we ultimately chose not to pursue that house, both the inspector and the contractor stayed committed to helping us on an off-market opportunity based on their relationship with Melissa. She, of course, stayed committed to seeing our purchase through, as well, and handled the contract negotiations and execution perfectly. Her impeccable attention to detail even caught a $9,000 error the title company made!
Melissa is dedicated to every client, readily available via email, phone, or text, and she is just an all-around nice person you enjoy spending time with. Yes, there are plenty of online resources out there to get real estate information, but you need to hire Melissa Waller to really get what you want for one of the largest purchases you and your family will ever make.

We used Melissa to purchase our 2nd house and we can’t say enough good things about her. She helped us get the winning offer on a house with multiple bids and the house even appraised for a significant amount above our offer! Her communication skills are amazing - we had a lot of questions and she was so good about answering our questions quickly and without hesitation. Her level of customer service is hard to find. She was willing to go the extra mile to find out details on the house and was so helpful with anything we asked. She is so sweet and personable too and overall a pleasure to work with. If you want an agent that is determined, hardworking and has your best interest in mind, then Melissa is your gal. We would definitely recommend her and we wouldn’t hesitate to use her again.

I would like to thank Melissa Waller for selling our house. Her attention to detail and her expert negotiating skills helped us to get $150,000. more than our asking price. She not only staged our house for the sale but her husband did some needed repairs around our house which helped us get our maximum value. If you need an excellent agent, call Melissa. Roger Reimer
