    About Melissa Matey

    For professional expertise combined with a genuine, personal touch, I'm Melissa Matey, your trusted real estate partner in the Capital Region. I've built my career on one core belief that a home is more than a transaction, it's the center of your life and every situation is unique. Since 1997, I've had the privilege of guiding over 640 individuals and families through their real estate journeys with a career volume of over $125,400,000. Consistently ranked among the top three agents at Miranda Real Estate Group, I am a proud member of MRG's President's Club and have earned the Women's Council of Realtors Top Sales Performance award across multiple years. Clients say I'm approachable, detail-oriented, and tireless in my advocacy. I'm proud that their experiences show in the numbers with 100 online reviews all reflecting top ratings and stories of smooth moves, quick responses, and hands-on support. Helping sellers maximize their returns and buyers find the home of their dreams is my passion. I'm known for listening first so I can understand your why before mapping out the how. Providing clear, honest communication, so you're never left wondering what comes next; and creative strategies that showcase your home's best features or help you win in a competitive market. Many clients come to me because they're juggling life changes such as a new job, family growth, itching for a fresh start or need help navigating moves across the country. Whether you're a first-time buyer, upsizing, downsizing, or investing, I strive to make real estate relatable and empowering and understand the stress and excitement that comes with moving. My roots are in Woodbury, CT, but the Capital Region is home. If you want an agent who's got your back and who has the reviews and results to prove it I'd love to make your real estate journey a little less daunting and a lot more rewarding. I'm also an avid foodie, always trying new recipes, gardener, traveler, animal lover and massive fan of Trader Joe's. Let's make your next move your best one yet!

    I engaged Melissa prior to COVID-19 pandemic. We did not find the right house until after shut downs were in force. While maintaining compliance she did not miss a beat. We found d the right house and have engaged her again.

    This is the second time we have used Melissa to sell our home. Nothing but good things to say, always responsive be phone, email or text. Willing to negotitate to suit our needs, not her own. She promoted our house in every way available to have a quick sell within just a few weeks!

    Melissa exceeded my expectations. She always answered her phone, and is really knowledgeable. I told her what I liked and wanted she did not waste are time by showing me houses I did not want.. Melissa was not pushy at all and gave her honest opinion.

    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.
