"Melissa Matey of Miranda Real Estate is a fantastic resource for home buyers coming to the Capital Region. We purchased a home in the NY Capital Region near the end of 2019 with Melissa. Throughout the buying process she was very communicative and patient as we searched for just the right house. She is careful to educate us about the area, which was important for us as we were buying from out of state. She worked to learn our needs and desires and was constantly able to help us steer our search in the right direction. She provided an excellent list of local providers to assist with the inspection and buying process, all of her recommendations were professional and drama free. She is very comfortable communicating via text, email and phone which was extremely helpful to us as we were often communicating long distance and with a demanding work schedule. All the way though closing, Melissa was by our side as a coach and an excellent resource. Overall, we couldn't have asked for more!"

"Melissa was the agent representing the sale of the property my wife and I owned for 30 years. She guided us through the many phases of preparing and cleaning out our property as well as providing a list of recommended pre-sale home inspection contractors. This proved to be invaluable as we were able to nip some small problems in the bud prior to showing that could have discouraged some of the interest had they not been resolved. Working with Melissa was a relief because selling can be stressful at times but she was always calm, positive and professional."

"We did not know Melissa before the real estate transaction . We had gotten her name from an on air radio personality. She came to our home to do an evaluation for our possibly selling . We were impressed and when it became time to sell our much loved, but too large home we chose her.She used sales techniques we had never seen before. She narrated a walk through the house on YouTube . A drone flew over the property during peak fall colors. She had photos done at different times of the day and evening to show the house in different light. Because of her efforts (and a very active market) we had four offers in 6 days."

-Kate J, Client
"We can not recommend Melissa highly enough! As first time home buyers, she helped us through all stages of the home buying process. She dedicated a lot of her time to show us homes, sometimes multiple times, which helped us eventually find a home we absolutely love! Throughout the whole time she was always patient and helped answer all of our questions. As stressful as the home buying process can be, especially for first time buyers, Melissa guided us through the process with a high level of professionalism and expertise. When it came time to make a decision, she was there to guide but never overreached. This helped us feel like we owned the process of buying our home but at the same time it provided a high level of comfort knowing we were working with a talented and experienced agent. We are very thankful to have worked with her."

"I would like to personally Thank Mellissa for all the time she spend dealing with our situation in a short sale. I would call after work when she was off and she ALWAYS answered the phone. I would email information that needed to be submitted and I always got a confirmation call that she received it. I know it was a tough situation due to my divorce, but when my ex-wife did not do what was required I always got the courtesy call asking me how I wanted to handle the situation. I new going into a short sale that things would be extremely difficult and it would take a long time. Melissa kept me sane and well informed. During that time, I needed somebody watching out for me. I know I thanked her at the closing, but as her employer please, please, please just take 5 minutes out of your busy day to JUST SAY THANK for a GREAT JOB DONE. As a project manager in construction taking the time out of your busy day to thank someone is greatly appreciated. "

"I cannot recommend Melissa Matey too highly. She is a bright and cheerful person, a consummate professional, very knowledgeable about residential real estate, she sticks with what can be a frustrating process until there is a good result. We met Melissa Matey as the agent for a condominium we looked at early in the house-hunting process. Based on that encounter, we asked her to act for us as we carried on the search. This was a very good decision, in several ways. It took eight months to find the right place, including two deals that fell apart. Throughout the process, Melissa was always "on it". She suggested properties, followed up on our own discoveries, was always available on short notice to go see something with us. During this long process, Melissa maintained the correct professional approach -- she would provide guidance and advice when asked for, but was careful not to let her own views color the process. Her patience was quite remarkable."
