Melissa Deland

A fourth generation Bostonian, Melissa first made her home as an adult in Beacon Hill from 2003-2014. Committed to sharing her passion for the rich heritage and vibrant communities that Boston has to offer, she became a realtor in 2009 at Foundation Realty Group. While at FRG, Melissa built a reputation for being hard-working, reliable, trustworthy, and resourceful.

Three children later and a move to West Roxbury, Melissa realized another dream – becoming a broker and starting her own real estate company. Her priorities remain the same: working tirelessly to find the right home, at the right price, in the right community for each of her clients. For those clients selling their home, Melissa is determined to get them top dollar, while also acknowledging and sensitively managing the emotions surrounding the sales process. Melissa treats her clients as if they are her only one.

Passionate, knowledgeable, and patient, Melissa delivers personalized service and works tirelessly to ensure total client satisfaction.

Melissa is the kind of person you hope you get to work with when buying or selling a home. We first worked with her in 2019 when she helped us buy our first house and we absolutely adored her. This year, when life pulled us out of state and it was time to sell, there was zero hesitation about who to call. She’s thoughtful, reassuring, incredibly knowledgeable, and just so genuinely good to be around. She explained every step, celebrated the wins with us, and kept things steady through the ups and downs. More than anything, we felt taken care of not just as clients, but as people. We’re grateful for her guidance, her heart, and the friendship we’ve built along the way. For anyone planning to buy or sell, we would without a doubt, absolutely recommend working with her!

Over the past few years, Melissa has helped us manage a condo rental, sell that condo, and buy our new house, and there's a reason we've worked with her across each of those transactions. She is such an authentic, knowledgeable, responsive, and kind person and her communication style has always given us confidence during the oftentimes-hectic transaction process. Finding a house in the Boston area is difficult, but Melissa clearly understood what we were looking for and consistently presented us with great options. When we found the house we wanted in Brookline, she went above and beyond to secure a private showing on short notice, and she calmly coached us through the tense offer process. In all our time working with her, she anticipated and proactively resolved challenges to ensure everything ran smoothly from our perspective, and we wholeheartedly recommend her for anyone looking to buy or sell their home.

"Melissa was not only committed to helping us find a house, but she also offered guidance and support as we navigated the questions and challenges associated with getting into our ideal home. She encouraged us to keep looking when she had a clear sense that we were feeling resigned to make an offer on a place that wasn't right for us, and she demonstrated incredible patience in scheduling and traveling to see houses near and far. When we found the right home, her expert insight into the process and the dynamics of negotiation led to an amazing outcome, and we are incredibly grateful for the work she did to help us land in a perfect home for our family."

Melissa was a joy to work with, she helped us with both buying and selling homes. She was easy to work with and traveled all over to tour homes on our unpredictable schedule. Melissa was always quick to respond and answer any questions. Searching for a home while selling a home can be very stressful, but Melissa was there through the whole process making it as seamless and painless as possible. When it came to putting in an offer, she gave us solid and very useful advice. Melissa was thorough and thoughtful from start to finish!

Happy customer again! Once again, we reached out to Melissa for her expert assistance. This time for a local relocation. With her help we found the perfect new condo to accommodate our changing needs. That successful purchase naturally led to the sale of the home we were leaving behind. Melissa listened, found exactly what we were looking for and helped us settle in, successfully navigating the expected and unexpected. As part time residents in the Boston area we appreciate the fact that she has remained responsive to our questions and requests. And of course, once again, we ended up with a place that is "just right" for us. Thank you Melissa!
