I became a Realtor because I love helping people make their dream of home ownership a reality, especially in Durango. I was fortunate enough to be born and raised here and can’t imagine a better place to own a home. I grew up playing soccer, raising Guide Dogs for the Blind and learning the importance of balancing work and hobbies. While attending Fort Lewis College, I took advantage of their Junior Trimester Abroad program and spent six months studying business in Europe. After earning my Bachelor’s Degree, I spent a summer in Minnesota working for Outward Bound. My time away from Durango was just the experience I needed to realize that this amazing, unique community is where I want to live, work and raise my family. I would love to listen to your story and help you see the benefits in buying or aid you in selling a home in the Durango Area!

Melanie was recommended to us by a friend, and we could not have been happier. As first time home buyers we had a lot to learn, but Melanie was so patient and informative. We felt supported throughout the entire process. If we found ourselves in a position to buy again, we wouldn’t hesitate to work with her again. Would recommend to anyone looking to buy a home in La Plata/Montezuma County. She’s from the area really knows the unique market here. 10/10 experience.

Mel is amazing and was absolutely instrumental in helping buy and sell at the same time. She helped us work through complexities and very timely and diligent in her efforts. She absolutely demonstrated the value of having a strong realtor and I would highly recommend working with her! Six star rating!

Melanie has been wonderful to work with: from our sale of land in Costilla County, the purchase of a townhouse in Montrose County, the sale of our home in LaPlata County and continuing to find us our forever hobby farm North of Red Mountain Pass. We love working with her- she is forthright and vets out the right inspectors for the jobs. Appreciate you so much Melanie!
