Melissa Mooney has been my real estate advisor for well over 10 years. She has helped me execute at least 4 residential related transactions, and one commercial deal that was the most consequential of my life. I trust her implicitly. Her character and
integrity are beyond reproach. She is the person that you want on your side of the table.
Melissa is great to work with. She listens, responds timely to messages and follows-up quickly with answers to questions. If she doesn't have an answer, she goes and finds it. Melissa also has great market knowledge and plenty of resources to help buyers
throughout the process of purchasing a home. We are very glad someone recommended Melissa to us, as we were struggling with a well known but very lethargic real state agent. Merci Melissa!
I would highly recommend Melissa Mooney and NextHome Mountain Life! We had the pleasure of working with Andie Zielinski and Melissa Mooney throughout our home search and purchasing. They were integral in navigating the process of buying a home in Missoula.
Melissa and Andie were happily available to answer any questions, prompt scheduling of viewings, provided guidance, and informed us of any market conditions or inventory forecasting throughout our search for our first home. Melissa was a wonderful advisor
and advocate during contracting and made herself available for all of the key milestones. I felt very well cared and advocated for, knowledgable, and in control of the process while taking sage advice and leadership from Melissa and Andie. If you are looking
for representation, look no further than NextHome Mountain Life. We were very happy with our experience - cannot say enough about the quality of agents, information, and guidance through every step of the way!
We have worked with Melissa for several real estate transactions, all of which have been positive. Her innate understanding of market conditions and familiarity with the local area was a tremendous resource.
Beyond the professional expertise, Melissa's compassion and kindness solidified our desire to be repeat clients. Her flexibility and willingness to work with you, especially considering outside circumstances, buying/selling with a family or children, and helping manage the myriad tasks associated with real estate transactions are a testament to her credentials as a real estate professional. We would certainly work with Melissa again in the future.

Melissa has been helping me since 2016. First to buy a house in the mountains in the Bitterroot valley and recently to sell that house and buy another in town. I have totally depended on her and she has always been nothing but professional and always concerned
about my needs and wants. The last sale and purchase was not without stress and she always knew exactly what to do and what was required. She has become a dear friend and I would never use anyone else.
Purchasing a home in Missoula, Montana these days can be a difficult task especially for those that are from here as we are. It can be stressful, and overwhelming at times. Luckily we had Melissa to guide us through this process. Melissa's knowledge, professionalism,
and genuine care for her clients established the best framework a person needs when purchasing a home. Melissa's trustworthy, and kind demeanor created a pleasant purchasing experience. She advocated on our behalf removing the stress of dealing with certain
situations which was impressive to witness. Her communication was impeccable, always responsive and willing to talk through any situation that may arise. Melissa, and her team offer the genuine local experience you want when buying a home here in Missoula.
She knows this city and its people. She knows what community means and values it. She is the Real Estate Professional you want when looking for a new home and we can not recommend her enough.
Melissa and Andie did an amazing job with the sale of our home and the purchase of our new home. Their kindness and professionalism during the hectic and sometimes stressful process went above and beyond our expectations. I highly recommend them for both
buying and selling your home!
The perfect realtor to assist in either purchasing or selling a home. Not living in state, she assisted in everything we needed in getting the house presentable for sale. She is able to answer any question that might come her way and make sure you understand
the answer she was giving you. She has a knack for knowing when open houses should be done, price reductions might be necessary and how much and is in constant communication with you during the entire process. We cannot recommend her highly enough for anyone
needing to deal in real estate!
As first time property buyers Melissa did a great job explaining the process to us. Every part of the transaction went well and was stress free.
With years of experience, Melissa knows her trade well and is very knowledgeable of the Missoula/Bitterroot market.
We will definitely choose her in the future when we need assistance again.

Melissa was so helpful with navigating the purchase of my property. She stayed in contact with me, and the seller throughout the whole process. As a first time property buyer, I am so thankful that Melissa was my agent!
