Outstanding. Melinda guided us through the entire process of selling our home. She helped in identifying improvements and staging recommendation prior to our listing. Melinda researched comps in the area and helped us is setting a listing price. She took personal responsibility for every step. She helped us negotiate a selling price well above listing price. In addition, Melinda provided excellent advice in the purchase of our new house. I will recommend her to all and I will use her in any future transactions both buying or selling.

Melinda Doutt is a rock star! We could have not been able to purchase our new home without her attention to detail, tenacity, grace and expert advice. My wife and I felt protected during the entire process, and she helped guide us smoothly and effectively. She was very attentive to our needs and questions and we were able to trust her answers 100 percent. We look forward to working with Melinda again and will recommend her to all our family and friends.

When my mother-in-law died, we had several houses to market. These houses had 40 years of deferred maintenance, so this wasn't a walk in the park. Melinda was with me every step of the way, going above an beyond what a regular realtor would do. I would not hesitate to recommend Melinda as a realtor. In fact, I did so a couple of months ago when my sister asked for names of realtors in the area.

Selling our parents' home was a sad and very stressful time for us and hiring Melinda saved our lives. While providing excellent real estate advice she provided skilled hand holding and refereeing, instilling confidence during the selling and closing processes. She is a generous and committed agent, always available to answer questions and address any concern in a timely and supportive manner, she is a thorough, knowledgable and a no nonsense negotiator. Melinda was respectful of our wishes while at the same time she helped us focus and keep things on schedule, very hands-on from beginning to end, attending to all the ugly details allowing us to focus on packing, sorting through our memories and tying up loose ends. Since selling the house, I have reached out to Melinda for real estate advice and she continues to be a generous and dependable professional and, dare I say friend.

We had the opportunity to work with Melinda buying our new home and selling our old home. In both cases, she was instrumental in closing extremely successful transactions. During both transactions she was responsive, attentive and so helpful in assisting us to make good decisions. We truly believed that our current house was out of our reach for what we were able to offer, but Melinda said she'd work her magic and she did; her involvement was crucial to having our offer accepted. When selling our current home, she worked tirelessly with each active agent that submitted offers and negotiated a selling price that was well beyond our expectations. We told her the price we were hoping for and anything else would be "gravy." We were swimming in gravy in the end thanks to her. She's the epitome of being a true agent for you in a transaction. Our experience with the buyers agent for our sold property showed us how lucky we were to have Melinda on our side. We heard about the issues, but never had to deal with any of them because Melinda made up the difference. Thanks Melinda for such an awesome experience on both transactions!

Today’s real estate market is a tough seller’s market. We were getting discouraged because we had already lost two bids due to fierce over-bidding before we started working with Melinda. We shared with her what we were looking for in a home, and she found us our dream home in a beautiful and quiet court at the price we could afford. She paid attention to every detail of our requests. And she kept us updated with phone calls and emails about every step we needed to take as we went through making and offer, home inspections, closing escrow, and taking ownership. She is extremely organized, works hard and fast! We are very thankful for her professional expertise and personal care. We strongly recommend Melinda to help anyone buy their dream home!!

Melinda is a true leader and so wonderful to work with, especially as a first time homeowner, she combines expertise, passion for her job, and energy to her work. Over the last year and a half I'd been in search of my home, and Melinda was very detail-oriented and actively advocated for my wants/needs, all while keeping my best interests in mind each step of the way. Without a DOUTT, go with Melinda :)

Melinda represented my wife, Kay, and myself in the sale of our residence in San Jose. Her insight into the housing market, the wants and needs of the buyers, the preparation and implementation of getting our home on the market and her negotiating skills led to a very successful sale of our house. She provides a very conscientious and respectful attitude and commitment toward the sellers' and buyers' concerns and maintains a clear understanding of how the process should be handled. Our home was in good hands during the open house and subsequent walk-throughs. The security and safety within the house was always a top priority to Melinda. Thorough document preparation and explanation kept the home-selling completion painless and thoroughly successful. Melinda even provided us with the tools, the leads and representation to successfully find and negotiate the purchase of a new home outside of the San Jose area. I can think of no one better to handle the sale or purchase of a property than Melinda.

MeLinda was incredibly thorough and right on top of everything as we went through the process of buying our home. There were some unusual circumstances in our situation and she did the research to help us figure out how to approach the situation. Her dedication to the client is wonderful.

Melinda was amazing at helping us find our first home, she was very friendly and honest. Being first time buyers and unsure of all the in's and outs of what buying a house entails, Melinda helped this be as stress free as possible. She was super knowledgeable and figured out exactly what it was we was looking for. I would recommend her in a heartbeat, really great agent.
