Heart-centered, highly intelligent, articulate, effective, and relational. Everything rises and falls with leadership, and Mel is world class. She is a fierce advocate for those in her fold, and she commands trust because of the way she consistently shows up. Any agent would be lucky to work with her, and there is no doubt that you will be taken care of at the highest level when you choose to hire The Avenue Home Collective for your real estate goals.
This was our second home purchase with Melissa Sofia and her incredible team — and once again, they delivered above and beyond. Our first experience was a long-distance purchase, and they handled every detail with professionalism, care, and ease. It felt effortless — like having trusted friends guiding us the whole way. So when we found our dream condo, Melissa was our very first call. And once again, the entire process was smooth, fast, and even joyful. These women had our backs at every tu...
We had a great experience working with the Avenue Home Collective. Melissa Sofia and Amanda Lee were so helpful, knowledgeable, and patient during this entire process! They took the time to understand our wants and needs and helped us realize our dream. If you are looking to buy and sell property you have to reach out and discuss with them. Best in the business!
Melissa Sofia exceeded our every expectation in so many ways. We purchased a condo over 10 years ago at the height of the market. When it finally seemed like it had recovered from the market drop, we decided it was time to sell. We reached out to Melissa after being referred to her from multiple sources. From our very first conversation to our most recent, we have always felt like she had us as her first priority. She always advised us based on what was best for us and no one else. The sale of o...
I can’t say enough good things about Melissa Sofia! Throughout the process of buying our house Melissa was professional and friendly. I never felt like I was anything less than her top priority – she returned phone calls, texts, and emails quickly. It was her idea to push for more credits from the seller – which she got – because she knows the real estate business and looks out for her clients’ money like it’s her own. Toward the end of the deal when we came up against some challenge...
I don’t know how you could give Melissa or her company anything less than 5 stars! This women works tirelessly, day and night (er middle of the night, I should say) to get things done. She recently sold our home in RB and helped us find a new one in Oceanside… both closed concurrently! No problems or snags, and she and her staff went above and beyond to make it all happen! She returned texts, emails and calls within record time, and she always did it with a smile and made things fun! We coul...
Moving to North County San Diego from Los Angeles. We had to commute to look at homes and absolutely could not have done it without Melissa’s help. We found our dream home on the first weekend and were able to close in 21 days. Melissa and her team are incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and great to work with. She took the stress out of the entire process and I can’t recommend her enough!
We’re all settled in!! Melissa was a fantastic agent to work with!! She made this experience for a first time home buyer so easy!! I travel every other month for work and my wife is in nursing school. Melissa made herself available on short notice at hours well outside of the normal work day. She stuck by us through the ups and downs of a very dynamic 2015 and landed us our amazing starter home in 4S Ranch at a fantastic price! We will be giving her a call when the time comes to expand as our ...
