ZillowVERIFIEDIf you're looking for a savvy, no-pressure, honest realtor who will act in your best interest in this wild and crazy real estate market, you have found the right realtor in Melissa. She understands if you want to buy a home but don't want to get caught up in escalation clauses, bidding wars and is not a realtor who is only in the business for the money. I was unsure whether to sell, hold, or rent out a home I'd recently purchased, and she was the one realtor who didn't immediately say "sell it" (so they could make the commission.) She provided sound, unbiased advice that helped me make a decision without telling me what decision I should make -- a rare find in the real estate world.

ZillowVERIFIED Need a realtor? Look no further than Melissa. Shes knows the local market inside and out, shes responsive, efficient, an excellent negotiator, and shes got the patience of a saint in dealing with my 4000 questions. She gets to know her clients and always has your back. Also the parallel parking is just straight ?? First time working directly with Melissa, but I can guarantee it wont be our last!

ZillowVERIFIED Melissa is terrific. She helped me to both sell a DC condo and buy a new one in DC. I appreciate her good natured approach as she guided me through the complications of selling, financing, and purchasing real estate. Throughout the process, she provided forthright answers to my endless questions and thoughtful advice. I recommend Melissa without hesitation.

ZillowVERIFIED Melissa was amazingly helpful in our home search. She was always very responsive at all hours , gave her honest and unflinching opinion of any house that we were considering, and was alternatingly encouraging and dismissive as needed. Would recommend.

ZillowVERIFIED We had a great experience working with Melissa! We bought during a crazy COVID market in DC, and she guided us through every step of the process on multiple offers. We ended up with a home we love and couldn't be happier. This wasn't our first time buying a home, but it was our first home in DC. Melissa has a really thorough understanding of the DC market--everything from neighborhoods, things to look out for on flips, etc. She demystified the process and made a chaotic market one that we felt confident navigating. We highly recommend working with Melissa!

ZillowVERIFIED Melissa was extremely efficient and courteous in assisting us with selling our DC Condo recently. She promptly responded to our inquiries and provided us with good data and counsel. She also protectively and proactively looked after our interests. We unhesitatingly highly recommend her.

ZillowVERIFIED We love Melissa! We worked with her about 5 years ago to purchase a condo and contacted her again when we were ready to purchase our first single-family home. As other reviewers have mentioned, she's a great negotiator, has an excellent network of reliable contacts in the home-buying space, and is available and straightforward. What we appreciate about her the most is that Melissa really listened to us and understood our needs, especially when we didn't have the vocabulary to be explicit about what we really wanted (like, ok, sure, the kitchen is nice, but you're really going to want a bathroom on the first floor when you're potty-training). Plus, she's really fun, and we like hanging out with her (our toddler still asks about "Mimi" sometimes). We've recommended Melissa to all of our home-buying friends, and we'd recommend her to you too!

ZillowVERIFIED Some of our friends referred us to Melissa and choosing her as a realtor was the best decision that we made as first-time home buyers. She was great about thoroughly explaining the process to us up front, attuned to what we wanted in our new place, and extremely knowledgeable about where to look and what was feasible for our interests and budget. On top of all of that, she was laid back, funny, and great at taking the stress out of the process. When we found the place that we wanted, she did a great job of negotiating the price, getting a two year home warranty for us, and making sure closing went smoothly. We've already recommended her to some of our friends and will definitely be using her the next time that we're looking to buy.

ZillowVERIFIED Melissa is a gem to work with. Very knowledgeable, extremely patient and above all honest with my very direct questions. I worked with Melissa for about a year and a half due to my limited budget and picky neighborhood (champagne taste, beer budget) and she delivered.

ZillowVERIFIED We worked with Melissa Terzis to purchase our first home. Melissa was fantastic, knowledgable, and has our highest recommendation. When we first met with Melissa, we were at the very beginning of our home-buying journey. She helped us understand the whole process, the ins and outs of of the DC area market, and most importantly, our budget. We realized we had more saving to do. Fast forward two years to when we were really ready to buy, and she was there to help us move forward. At every point, she was committed to helping us make the right choice for our family, at the right time for us. Her willingness to think this through with us, without any pressure, made her an obvious choice to work with when we were ready to dive back in. Our situation was unique, and Melissa was willing to go above and beyond to accommodate us. We bought our U.S. home while stationed in east Africa for humanitarian work. Buying from another continent is inherently stressful, but Melissa was always available for emails and calls across timezones, which really set us at ease. Melissa helped us identify the right neighborhoods for our family's needs and our budget. Things can move fast in this market. When we found a potential winner, Melissa was able to very quickly put together a video showing for us, and get our offer together in time. We came up with an offer strategy, and our bid was selected. We loved the house, but it required a lot of work. Melissa was amazing, using her relationships with vendors to mobilize a team of contractors to price out all the needed repairs, and help us include them in our budgeted cost of ownership. Once we eventually contracted the work, her recommended vendors did a great job at a fair price. Melissa is an honest and direct negotiator, and helped us figure out the right deal with the seller, taking into account the repairs needed. In the end, we came to a deal that worked for all of us, and got everything fixed up at the new house. Melissa is wonderful to work with, and we can't recommend her enough. It takes a lot of trust to make such a big decision from overseas, and we couldn't have picked a better partner to make it happen.

ZillowVERIFIED Working with Melissa was great! She helped us relocate from our loved DC condo into finding our new forever home. She was able to answer all our questions, brought up issues that I didn't always see right away and just hustled. I always felt like she had our back, it felt like a trusted family relationship. She had the appropriate amount of hand holding and seasoned real estate knowledge. She wanted us to make all the decisions, but certainly helped with the pros and cons. She has relationships with numerous vendors and contractors and inspectors and helped meet people at the properties and asked the questions that we didn't know to ask. Work with Melissa she's the best!

ZillowVERIFIED It was a pleasure working with Melissa. As we were searching for our first house my husband was very nervous. But Melissa assured us that she would find the right house for us. Week after week Melissa picked us up and took us to see multiple properties. (So many properties) Melissa went above and beyond in helping us find our home. We highly recommend her.

ZillowVERIFIED Melissa made first time home buying as painless as possible. She worked around my busy schedule, as well as her own, to find the place that was right aEURoefor meaEUR?. She is knowledgeable about the various markets in the area, and knows all of the neighborhoods and what they have to offer, allowing her to cater to the buyers preferences. Most importantly, she is trustworthy and honest about all things one asks her to consider. When the time comes to move again (years down the road), should it be in the DMV area, theres no other realtor I will turn to.

ZillowVERIFIED If you live in DC and you are looking to buy a home, I really cannot recommend Melissa enough. She is straightforward, honest, and will work herself to the max for you. She: spent a ton of weekends with us and our baby, held said baby when we traipsed through houses, never said "I told you so" when we ended up in the burbs, stuck with us when we lost three bidding wars, helped us traverse a very tricky situation with a bad appraiser, swooped in with the name of a great lender and helped us save a loan that was almost compromised due to this appraiser, met contractors for us before we took possession of our keys, and just hustled hard. She was absolutely wonderful to work with, we loved spending time with her and she found us a beautiful home we could afford in our wild DC market.

ZillowVERIFIED Melissa rocks. We decided to buy a condo for a DC grad school bound child. Since we live in Texas, Melissa had to plan out far in advance the entire buy side process. We used Melissa again when selling the condo post graduation and she went above and beyond. She was there for every phone regardless of day or time, visited our condo on our behalf countless times, and even recruited her husband to address a few minor condo issues. Highly recommend. A++

ZillowVERIFIED Melissa knows her stuff. She is well versed in neighborhoods and understands their ever-changing values, helping in the pricing and negotiation process. As an out of town buyer and seller, Melissa went way, way above and beyond, helping me with everything from painters and cleaners to appliance delivery. She makes you feel like you are her only client and her top priority. She has dropped everything and taken care of things for me, so I would not be inconvenienced. I could not have had smooth and successful transactions without all of her help. As someone who has completed numerous real estate transactions, no one else has gone out of their way to provide a complete service like Melissa has, all while acting like it was just part of her job. You will not just be another transaction or just paperwork to Melissa.

ZillowVERIFIED After I had been searching on my own for a condo for several months, a friend recommended I work with Melissa, and I'm so glad I did so! Melissa was a huge help, and helped me navigate the DC condo market and DC home-buying experience. She was responsive, helpful, and most of all, patient (I'm sure I was an annoying client). She gave great feedback on pricing and helped me hold a strong negotiating position to get my condo for $20k below list price. Added bonus: she's fun and funny, and I actually miss going around DC looking at condos with her.

ZillowVERIFIED I highly recommend Melissa - she is a very knowledgeable real estate agent as well as a fun person to be around. She spent time to answer all of my questions during the process and was available evenings into nighttime hours. She was also patient with me as I took over a year to find a house and completely changed my search area. Melissa did not pressure me to hurry up and make a decision, which made me feel like she was looking out for my best interest. When I finally found a house, she helped me through the closing process - finding a lender (worked out a bunch of math with me!), inspector, and title company. I really appreciated that I could trust her to find the best people because I was feeling overwhelmed at that point. She even helped me with some issues after closing. We still keep in touch even after the process has ended - that's the kind of relationships she makes with her clients.

ZillowVERIFIED Melissa is EXCELLENT!! Recently I was in charge of selling a home as a part of an estate. I originally contacted another realtor to do the work since he said he specialized in this sort of thing. Unfortunately, though we had a signed agreement he tried to change the terms and was slow to implement any marketing plan. I contacted Melissa and she was on it! Within an hour I had everything I needed to get the house listed and setup a time to see everything. This was an AS IS sale and to me the house did not look all that great. After I had the house cleaned out she had the photographer come in and they took some amazing pictures! I saw the brochure that was produced and almost did not recognize the house. They caught the charm and quaintness of the home and let it shine. Within 3 days of listing, she presented a signed offer for the full asking price and in less than 30 days we went to settlement. We had some issues with a past due utility bill during the process ando Melissa was on the phone with me negotiating away all of the fees which reduced the amount due. She didnt have to do anything, but she truly cares and will do whatever she can to make the process as simple and easy for you as possible. Hands down, I highly recommend her services. I will never call another realtor and recommend her to all my friends and family!

ZillowVERIFIED Ive worked with a few real estate agents in my time, and Melissa is by far the best. She knows the DC market inside and out, and because of her expertise, we were able to get well over asking price on the house we were selling and a competitive price on the house we were buying. She is an absolute professional who provided us with outstanding advice and service. I especially appreciate her straightforward manner, strong negotiating skills and tireless commitment to her clients. Shes also detail oriented, which helped all of our transactions to go smoothly. It was truly a pleasure working with Melissa, and I highly recommend her - Shes my agent for life!

ZillowVERIFIED I can't recommend Melissa enough. As a first-time buyer, she was extremely patient with and responsive to all my questions. It took a lot of time and a few rejected offers to find my place, and she was not deterred. She is knowledgeable about DC and its market, and she stays on top of trends to learn more. She is extremely smart and perceptive, which serves her clients at all stages of the process. Melissa goes above and beyond for her clients, and it really feels like she does it naturally, because she truly, personally wants to, not because of any standard professional obligation. If your search is like mine, you'll spend a ton of time with Melissa, and she is fun and funny so that is an added bonus! She has found her calling as a real estate agent, and her clients all know that we are lucky that she did.

ZillowVERIFIED I can't recommend Melissa highly enough. As a first-time buyer, I appreciated her perspective and advice throughout the process. Melissa was knowledgeable and helpful at every step. Her low-key, no-nonsense attitude was a real bonus throughout the ups and downs of the DC real estate market. She was always available to respond to my questions promptly, making the condo-buying experience a lot less stressful. Plus, I really enjoyed working with her!

ZillowVERIFIED Bottom line: Melissa adds value and cares for her clients. Melissa has a fantastic personality - very tell-it-like-it-is, a generous amount of grit, and a go-with-the-flow attitude that bodes well for the inevitable highs and lows of buying real estate. As first-time home buyers, she patiently put us at ease and was excited to walk through our journey with us. See a new listing that you love? Melissa will meet you for a showing ASAP. Want to run comps for a specific block that you have your eye on? Done within minutes. Need to scout out a parking spot in your preferred neighborhood? She's a pro at finding leads. Melissa will be in your corner, and provide loads of jaw-dropping and hysterical stories along the way to keep you sane. Melissa is an expert on the DC market - we were looking for a condo within a very specific part of downtown, and there are few buildings that she doesn't know. She's a longtime DC local with an inside scoop. You like this building, then you'll love that building just a block over! Melissa does not push you to buy - if you want to make an offer she won't stand in your way, but if you've made your wish list known she will honor your preferences to a fault. And if you need help thinking outside of what you know, she is poised at making recommendations for consideration. Also, she's not interested in having her clients overpay - under her guidance, we felt balanced in being competitive for the here-and-now and being wise for the long-term. Melissa did not fall off the map after she earned her commission - she has consistently shown interest in making sure we are off to a successful start in our new digs. Our power team (Melissa as our agent and John Gibbins at George Mason as our lender) helped us land our first home at our dream location within budget. We highly recommend Melissa.

ZillowVERIFIED Melissa was an outstanding real estate agent from start to close. She has a great sense of humor and was a master at finding parking for not only herself but also a second trailing car that included my parents as we were house-hunting. She helped us deal with an incredibly dishonest selling agent who did unethical things to try to sell the condo for more money. Her negotiation skills are especially impressive, and you get the idea that she really really cares about you and is really representing you to the fullest. I have no hesitation to recommend her.

ZillowVERIFIED Melissa is smart, savvy and no nonsense, three values anyone should value in a real estate agent. She knows the market and process inside and out and delivers her expertise in a no nonsense, yet relatable, funny way! She's seen it all, so nothing surprises her. She's happy to provide insightful guidance, but never to her benefit. She wouldn't let me overpay for a one bedroom, no matter where it was in DC. And, when I fell in love with the first place I saw (which would have been a quick win for her!), she told me all the reasons I should be cautious about the property. She's patient and realistic the buying process and will move as quick or slow as you want to. When it came to closing, I truly felt like I had an ally on my side. She went above and beyond and made sure all of the details were taken care of, even when they weren't her responsibility.

ZillowVERIFIED Melissa is a no-nonsense real estate expert. She has plenty of insight --- but is not trying to force her opinion on you. She allows you to explore your own needs and evaluate the property without any pressure or urgency to move toward a buy. Her direct, supportive approach was terrifically helpful in finding the ideal property for us quickly. Melissa was super helpful and positive; responsive in all manner of things and extremely knowledgeable. I would be thrilled to work with her again at any time!

ZillowVERIFIED I'm not sure where to start, Melissa is just fantastic! When we decided to sell our 1 bedroom condo we were living in it with our 9 month old son. You can imagine how excited we were about keeping it in show-ready state and working around showings. She managed to help us sell it before we even put it on the market. She is open, honest, professional and an all around good person. She is deeply knowledgeable of the D.C. Real estate market.

ZillowVERIFIED Melissa is a great person to work with and was the best realtor for me. I like that even before I was completely sure I was ready to buy a house, our first meeting was very informative and I was taken seriously. This made me come back 5 months later when I was ready to begin the process. I didn't know enough about real estate to be nervous going in and the process was made even better with Melissa's responsiveness to questions at all times and any time. Would highly recommend her to anyone.

ZillowVERIFIED We had rented in the area for a while before finally deciding to buy our first home. If we had known about Melissa and how easy she would make the home buying process for us, we would have done this much sooner! Melissa understood the specific area and the type of home we wanted and she worked from day one to help us get there. She is quick to respond, happy to answer any questions (plus knowledgeable and thorough in her answers), and proactively negotiates on her clients behalf. After we found our future home, she communicated with the sellers agents frequently and advocated for us throughout the process. After our offer was accepted, she walked us through everything we needed to do, and made us feel at ease. She was happy to contact other partners in the buying process for us, and even called our inspection company to make a scheduling request change. After the inspection found some minor issues, she explained what would make sense for us to handle after closing, and what we should push the sellers to repair (and of course, she was tireless in negotiating to get those closing costs and repairs made)! Even after closing, she has been in touch to check in on how were doing, and to offer additional advice and check if we have any questions. If its not clear, Melissa is a fantastic agent and, as a bonus, fun to work with. We wouldnt hesitate to recommend Melissa Terzis to anyone buying a home in the DC area.

ZillowVERIFIED The one word that sums up Melissa is outstanding. Responsive, extremely knowledgeable from a real estate and construction perspective, but she also really understands her customers and what they are looking for (possibly better than they might understand themselves!). Effective, direct, honest - she clearly is in this for the long-term, as first-time home buyers get the same attention as high-end. She really goes above and beyond the call of duty. She also made excellent referrals across the board, from lender to inspector. I very much look forward to working with Melissa again, and I strongly recommend her to anyone.

Review for Member: Melissa Terzis
ZillowVERIFIED Ridiculously good. I mean it, this is as objective as it gets and the other reviews on here are definitely something you should go by based on our experience. Before moving to the US, you hear so many terrible stories about agents being money hungry ('closing deals') with as much interest in your satisfaction as I have in coming up with a smart analogy. We tried one agent who pushed us to purchase when we were clearly not ready, so that put us off real estate companies, until my wife found Melissa online. Attentive, willing to go the extra mile, understanding and honest about budgets. Melissa understood we wanted to wait a year before making a buy decision and helped us find a condo in less than a week. Her job was done, but she insisted on making sure our move was as seamless as possible. She'll save you a ton of heartache looking around DC for rents and sales. It's been a month since we moved in and she's still checking in with us. No one does that.

ZillowVERIFIED Melissa is by far the most impressive and knowledgeable agent I have ever worked with. Rarely does a seller make that statement about an agent that represented the opposite side of a real estate transaction. Melissa not only went above and beyond for her clients, she was extremely fair and reasonable with me as the seller. That balance is not common. As a local developer, I have had my fair share of experiences with a variety of agents, some good and some not so much. Melissa, however, is in a class of her own. Any buyer or seller looking for an honest, fair, and extremely knowledgeable real estate professional, look no further. Melissa Terzis is the best choice you can make.

ZillowVERIFIED I usually avoid telling my age, but for Melissa Terzis, I will let you know that I'm 57-years old and have been buying and selling homes since my mid 20s. I have never had a real estate agent like Melissa. She was there whenever I needed her. She was fierce in her negotiations on my behalf and was simply a joy to work with. She is, by far, the best agent I have ever had and I would not hesitate to recommend her. If you want an agent that is always working for your best interests, Melissa is the person to have on your side! Sandra Kerr

ZillowVERIFIED Working with Melissa was one of the best decisions we made as first time homebuyers! We were so grateful to have her years of experience to lean on while deciding on neighborhoods, narrowing down our must haves, weeding out non-quality properties and guiding us through the whole process. It was always clear that her priority was helping us find the right house for us. This included steering us away from a couple of properties that blinded us, as first time buyers, with their shiny renovated kitchens but thankfully Melissa made us focus on the details of those homes that would have made them, either not right for us or a bad investment in the long run. Melissa was always there for us throughout every step of the process. Having her in our corner ensured that our home buying experience never turned into the stressful experience that it could be but rather that it was always the exciting experience that it should be. Thankfully all her hard work paid off! We now own our first home, it's everything I could have hoped for and I have Melissa to thank for that! We may never need a realtor again but I know who it will be if we do!

ZillowVERIFIED Melissa is great! We had a long distance move from out of state & we needed to sell our previous house in order to buy in the DC area. The whole thing was pretty complicated and there were a lot of moving parts, so we really needed an agent with a steady hand, a good knowledge of the area, and a willingness to go above and beyond. Melissa surpassed our expectations and took care of us from the beginning of the process through the very end. We would have no hesitation recommending her to anyone buying in the DC area, including Northern Virginia or Maryland. Melissa Rocks!! :-)

ZillowVERIFIED Melissa is absolutely without a doubt the best real estate agent I have ever worked with. I not only bought my house with her but after 5 years of ownership I worked with her to sell my place. She is very thorough and meticulous with every word of every document. When I bought my place she actually reviewed every page of the 1000 page HOA documents. Melissa also works with great agency of experts who have seemingly endless resources to get the job done In a true professional manner. I would recommend and trust Melissa Terzis as a real estate agent for everyone. I have worked with other agents in the past before I met Melissa and let me tell you! Melissa is a true professional and an expert in real estate!! Can't wait to work with her again in the future.

ZillowVERIFIED We were referred to Melissa by our West coast realtor...and we were so relieved that on meeting her for the first time she understood our requirements to a T. Melissa is not your typical realtor...she is extremely efficient,searched out properties that fit our parameters,her communication skills are second to none,but was not in the least pushy or aggressive with us during our property search,which we appreciated. However,she is extremely tenacious when going out to bat for her clients whether it be during the negotiations or in our case dealing with an inefficient mortgage company,that despite being an international bank did not understand the vagaries of the DC realty market. Melissa gave us concise explanations for each step of our home buying process in DC and it didn't matter what time of day we contacted her with queries,she was very quick to return calls,texts and emails. We would totally use her skill and expertise in the future if we were to purchase or sell in DC....and would have no hesitation in recommending her to others.

ZillowVERIFIED I was a first-time home-buyer in a competitive market and wanted my first home to be perfect. Melissa was by my side through the whole process, answering every question at record speed, taking me on endless property visits, but never pushing me into a property that wasn't exactly right. Our patience fianally paid off and Melissa was able to help me negotiate a fantastic deal on home I love. The combination of her down-to-earth, direct manner, personal contacts in banking, inspections, and contracting, and 15+ years of experience in the field made the whole process totally painless. City Chic really cares about their clients, and I would recommend the firm and Melissa to anyone looing to buy/sell a home.

ZillowVERIFIED I have worked with several other agents in the past, and all I can say is that City Chic blows everyone away! I had Melissa as my agent and we have seen over 40 homes together. When we first started, it was to get a feel for the market and Melissa was very effective in guiding me to the right neighborhood without ever feeling any pressure. She was very honest in her opinions and input, which is so rare for agents in DC. I never felt forced or pressured and even after I found a place, she asked me if I still want to go through with it. Even after the closing, she still keeps in touch and answers any questions I may have. I highly recommend this group over the other bigger names in the DC area. I could not have been more pleased. If you want an honest and efficient real estate agent, look nowhere else

ZillowVERIFIED Melissa was an amazing realtor! She understood the competitive DC market so well and was willing to go above and beyond to get us a home. Throughout the whole process, Melissa was supportive and easy to get in touch with. She answered all of our many questions as first time home buyers and even knew what else wed need to know, though we didnt even know to ask. When we were feeling discouraged by the crazy DC market, Melissa helped us refocus and regain our enthusiasm. We cant imagine someone who could be more dedicated to getting us a place that we love and cherish than Melissa Terzis. We highly recommend her!

ZillowVERIFIED There was so much information to process as we tried to buy our first home. Fortunately, Melissa Terzis seemed like she was available 24 hours a day to guide us, and it was amazing to have a real estate expert totally invested in seeing things from our point of viewaEUR"while providing critical advice about what we could get and where we could get it within our price range. Not only did she personally guide us all over the city and through a sometimes confusing DC real estate market, she answered our questions and worked on offers at all times of day and night. There are just so many buyers looking at every listing, and I dont think we would have gotten our lovely new condo without Melissas attention to detail, work ethic, and just general sharpness. The level of personal attention we got as Melissas clients blew us away. I would recommend her enthusiastically to anyone looking for a realtor in DC.
