Melissa Emanuel’s Summary

I have been in the real estate world in one fashion or another for most of my life. My parents were always buying, fixing, flipping and so on. There was not a year when we didn't have some sort of remod happening at our house. This started the bug.
I have found real estate to be a very psychological and emotional business. I focus on creating a welcoming environment for buyers and try to make them "see" themselves living in a house I have staged.
I have staged houses in $35k range to $750k range. The size is different, the theory is the same - welcome home!

Melissa Emanuel’s Experience

  • Realtor

    ERA Classic Real Estate

    (Real Estate industry)

    October 2008Present (1 year 2 months)

    Being in real estate you wear so many hats - from marketing and promoting, cleaner, stager, friend, confidant, negotiator and many more. It is something I enjoy and it can be challenging. I'm with my clients from initial consultation to housewarming parties and beyond. I create a lasting relationship with my clients.

    I have been active in the real estate investment area for several years and MI Home Staging started as a supplemental service to my real estate clients. I have since branched off and offer a plethora of services to conquer the "honey do lists" for owners to get the maximum return on their property. Services include: staging a vacant house, redesigning a house to sell or to live in, personal shopping for redesign clients, general handyman work, painting, powerwashing, BPO cleanouts and more. We look at the property from top to bottom, in and out.

Melissa Emanuel’s Education

  • University of L.I.F.E. - Living It Fully Everyday!

    pursuing a masters , Universal studies of mankind

    True, this is not an accredited institution but shouldn't it be? As a person, don't we all study each other - our behaviors, quirks, morals, ethics and everything that makes us tick.

    I plan on being in this course of study for the rest of this lifetime. I look forward to meeting many more incredible people on the same path.
