Wonderful Experience!!!!! Very knowledgeable about the area. For our first house we had to deal with a bank, so our emotions were like a roller coaster. Mel and Jake worked together and made it a fun and exciting experience. After some life changes a year and a half later we had to sell that house. So we used The Simmons Sales Team again. They suggested some smart and easy changes that helped us get an offer on our house in 2 weeks! Then we used them again to buy another house. Mel was very flexible with her time to show me houses all over the area. She found me the perfect house, for now!!!! LOL. But we will use them again for our next home.

My husband and I had a great experience with Melissa. She took the time to give us all the information we needed as first time home buyers. We received daily updates as new homes were put on the market and she willingly worked around our schedule for viewing homes. We found the perfect home for our family in no time at all.

Hands down the best in the business. Any question I had they answered. I called one day and asked about the buying process, Melissa made it so simple and pain free for me.

The Simmons Sales Team was amazing during the process of selling our home. We made a last minute decision to sell, and within the first day had several families look at it, and 1 making an offer that now occupies the home! We were very blessed to have such great people help us along in the sometimes dreadful process of selling a home.

"The Simmons Sales Team is amazing!! They helped me buy a house back in July and it went very smoothly, thanks to Melissa!! But, there were a few things that the sellers didn't get finished in time for closing. Melissa and Kim assured me that they would take care of it. One thing was my back basement windows needed window well covers. They were very hard to find but they promised they would get some to fit. I noticed this week I had brand new windows well covers installed! I was so excited! They made good on their word months after my closing, and I am so grateful for their honestly and trustworthiness! This team goes above and beyond and will work hard for you, even after your closing. If they say they're going to take care of something, believe it. I highly recommend them when you're ready to buy or sell a home!"

e only worked with Melissa, however she was very much a professional. She worked very hard in finding us homes to look at. Even though we had other things going on she was considerate of our situation and worked with us and was understanding.
She communicated very effectively with us and stayed on top of the other parties, when it came time for inspections and signing of paperwork. We would highly recommend Melissa as your representative.

Jake and Melissa where and still are wonderful sales professionals. Just being able to put up with my wife and I through our 2 year search for a house proves how dedicated they are to the people they help. If my wife and I ever buy another house we will be going through Simmons sales team again.
Thank you for all of your help and advice Jake and Melissa.

Jake helped us sell our home and find the perfect new home to move into. Our home sold in 23 days, and we were able to move into our new home right before the holidays. Perfect timing! Jake does a great job of communicating with all the people we had to deal with and making sure they are staying on top of things so we could close on schedule. Thank you for all you have done for us!!

You will LOVE them! After unsuccessfully trying to sell our home with another Realtor, we turned to the Simmons Sales Team. We quickly learned just how important it is to find someone who is going to work for you and not just create a listing. They advertised like crazy using social media, newspapers, mailings and more. They are also very active in the community working on committees and such. During open houses they would find ways to support local businesses by setting out samples of food from a local shop, etc. With their help we were able to sell our home and start our search for a new one!
Jake and Melissa are both great and always worked around our schedules to show us homes, day or night. Never once did they make us feel rushed into making a decision. In fact, they encouraged us to look at plenty of homes so we could make an informed and confident decision. They were always available to answer our questions and concerns. We had a long list of wants for our new home as we wanted to plant some roots but Jake and Melissa were patient with us throughout the whole process and respected our needs/wants. They are great at what they do and it shows! You won't be disappointed!

The Simmons Sales Team are TRUE PROFESSIONALS of the real estate industry. They have a deep understanding of the real estate market, and they're hard-working folks like the rest of us to boot! Jake and I had discussed listing my house before and I was hesitant to pull the trigger. One day he called and told me he had a buyer looking in my price range and that if I was serious he could show her the house; sure enough, we had a great offer that very same day- before we even put the house on the market! Let me reiterate- they KNOW the real estate industry thoroughly. On top of everything else, Jake actually spent a day in my crawl space working with me to correct issues the buyer had requested be fixed. Now that's dedication. I can't say it enough- they are a hard-working family who truly care about their community and the people in it, and excellent real estate agents.

We listed my mother's home for sale with the Simmons Sales Team and primarily spoke with Melissa. She was always very professional, friendly, courteous, and helpful. She had a strong knowledge of what needed to be done and how to get it done. When there were repairs that needed to be done to the home before the sale could be completed she did a massive amount of leg (phone) work to make the repairs happen. She located a reputable contractor at a reasonable cost that was able to complete the needed repairs in a few days. All we had to do was give our approval for what she had arranged and the house was SOLD. I cannot say enough good things about this hard working lady.

Melissa Simmons was an amazing Realtor for our family! It was our first time buying a home and she helped us understand what we needed to do to buy a home. She recommended a wonderful lender. Right before it was time to close on the house our credit score went down a little. My family had already told our current landlord that we were moving. So we hit a very big speed bump. We had to be out of our apartment but couldn't move into our home yet. Much to our surprise Melissa had a family member with an empty house. She allowed us to stay there for a month until we were able to move into our dream home. We were so lucky. If I could do it over again I would pick Melissa every time!

without a doubt the BEST!!! I've heard awful stories of home buying! Thankfully I never experienced this! We heard from Jake almost daily. He was always very specific of what we needed and how to get it. I strongly believe he went above and beyond making many sacrifices to get us the perfect home. Not only has he helped us with buying our home in 2011, he still checks in on us to ensure were satisfied and if he can be of any help. Jake and Melissa are young and hip, they bring that to the market and actually listen to what you are looking for! I've told many friends our story of home buying they are in such awe of how smooth and easy it was. My husband and I had to make a home must have list, set a budget and sign papers. No lie this is how simple it was. We would NEVER go anywhere else for any home buying or selling. Thank you Simmons sales team for not only being great realtors but friends along the way!

Jake and Melissa Simmons went out of there way to help in the very painful process of helping me and my family sell our grandmother's house. We had several bumps in the road but Melissa was always right there to guide us in the right direction and get us through it. She went above and beyond her job duties to help us complete the process and it was deeply appreciated. I would highly recommend these two if you are thinking about buying or selling in the future. Thank you Jake and Melissa for a job well done!

Melissa was fantastic to work with. I could not have picked a better agent to work with. My home buying process was very long and I was picky. We also got out bid several times. All the while she was patient and remained interested in my feedback on each deal. You could not ask for anyone else that cares about her clients as much as Melissa. I would recommend her and her team to everyone they are knowledgeable and can guide you through the process. While she was my agent I now consider her my friend.

The Simmons sales team are excellent to work with. They are very knowledgeable of the area and are very available to meet at any time. They wrote our offer the day we decided to purchase and being new to home buying also walked us through all the paperwork. I would highly recommend these guys to everyone.
