We worked with Melanie on both the sale and purchase of our homes in Edgartown and had a great experience both times. She was instrumental to us from the beginning of each process ot the very end. Her deep knowledge of the nieghborhoods and real estate on the island and her advice were extremely helpful. She was incredibly organized, responsible and courteous in working with us on all the steps needed to get to close. Very highly recommended!!
