    About Melanie Johnston

    Leaning on the principles of integrity and trust, I'm a fully licensed Realtor who is passionate about guiding others through one of the most significant journeys of their lives - finding their dream home. Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of guiding numerous individuals and families toward reaching their goals and have touched just about every side of the real estate spectrum. This ranges from the finer details in home sales to the more intricate aspects of commercial properties. Overall, my approach to real estate is shaped by personalized service and a deep understanding of market dynamics. In addition, a strong passion for demystifying the real estate process and ensuring that every experience is seamless, successful, and rewarding. Growing up in the Winter Park and Maitland area and now residing in Oviedo, my roots run deep within this community. This, along with my keen ability to understand and anticipate the needs of the local market, resulted in real estate being a natural progression for me. Prior to the transition, I spent 20 years in the legal industry as a Florida Registered Paralegal (FRP), followed by running my own business called Mela Pro, LLC since 2019. Here, I specialized in streamlining real estate transactions for Realtors, managing over 400 deals with precision and a client-first mindset. This, coupled with maintaining shared-value relationships with Realtors, title companies and lenders across the industry and establishing a firm hold on key markets within renowned sites like Zillow and Realtor.com. Applying those connections and insights as a Realtor myself since April 2023, I'm committed to creating perfect matches between properties and clients. What can you expect? A partnership grounded in mutual trust and respect, illuminated by my dedication to your goals and preferences. Whether you're buying your first home, searching for an investment property or ready to sell, I'm here to ensure the process is seamless, enjoyable, and tailored to meet your unique aspirations. I take on every transaction with a fresh perspective and am driven by the notion of never settling for anything that doesn't check every box. With me, it's not just about closing deals; it's about opening doors to new beginnings and empowering you with the knowledge and resources to make the best decisions for your future. Overall, my clients' wins are my measure of success, and every effort I make rests on ensuring those who work with me feel educated, stress-free, and confident as they navigate one of life's most significant milestones. Beyond keeping a firm pulse on the market and my client's ambitions, you can find me enjoying the quintessential Florida lifestyle with my four kids and pup, both here and in New Smyrna Beach where our second home is: deep sea fishing, time outdoors, traveling, sports. These moments with family and the beauty of Florida's landscapes are constant reminders of why I do what I do.

    As out-of-state buyers, we were nervous about purchasing a home in Florida remotely, but Melanie made the entire process seamless and stress-free. Melanie went above and beyond, providing virtual walkthroughs, answering our endless questions, and handling all the paperwork with incredible attention to detail. Her local expertise and constant support made us feel completely at ease. We are so grateful to Melanie for helping us find our new home and for making the experience so enjoyable!

    Betty was accommodating from the very beginning. My transaction was a little more complicated due to alot of moving pieces, Betty never made me feel as though it was too much and found the answers to meet my unique needs.

    I cant recommend Michael's work enough! From the very beginning, he made the home-buying process feel smooth and stress-free. He took the time to really understand what I was looking for and was always available to answer my questions, no matter how big or small. Thanks to his hard work and dedication, I found the perfect home, and I couldnt be happier! If youre looking for a realtor who goes above and beyond, Michael is the one to call.

    Melanie was absolutely amazing to work with! As buyers using a VA home loan, we knew the process could have extra steps, but she made everything feel seamless. From start to finish, Melanie kept us informed at every stage, clearly explaining what to expect and making sure nothing was overlooked. Her communication was excellent, her local knowledge was unmatched, and she always made us feel like a priority. Thanks to her guidance and expertise, what could have been stressful turned into an easy, straightforward experience. We are so grateful for her hard work and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dedicated, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring realtor!

    Incredibly professional and knowledgeable. She quickly found what we were looking for and was able to manage the correspondence with the sellers very well. She easily sets herself apart from other realtors in the Orlando area and I would highly recommend Shatondra as your realtor.
