A resident of the Tampa Bay Area for over 35 years, Melissa De Maria has been selling real estate since 2004 when she started with Keller Williams.  A single agent averaging $8-10M for most of her career, her team started growing in 2016 when her youngest daughter joined her as her buyer’s agent.  Melissa enjoys helping people with their primary home purchases and sales, but she gets particularly excited about assisting and teaching investors how to invest in real estate to build wealth. Melissa has the Certified Distress Property designation, is a Certified Property Manager and is a member of the Luxury Marketing Institute.

While Melissa has been a part of the ALC many times, she discovered her passion for teaching during her first stint when she joined her market center’s Education Committee.  As an instructor for FES, she looks forward to bringing her knowledge and experience to the region’s market centers via classes designed to take agents’ businesses to the next level.

Melissa is a talented agent who really enjoys her business, but her first love is her family.  She is the proud parent of 2 beautiful daughters and 1 grandson and has been married 30 years.

Feedback from FES class attendees

“Great energy and material. Agents will put those tools into practice right away. She also supported agents with Kelle at the beginning and she did a video to help promote the class before hand on Facebook.” – Robert Carbuccia, TL Ft. Lauderdale, Win With Sellers with Melissa De Maria
