Melissa Hammond is a New York State–licensed esthetician turned real estate agent, blending nearly a decade of skincare expertise with a passion for beautiful spaces. After 18 years in California’s vibrant communities—from Hollywood to the Sunset Strip—she settled in Watervliet, where she cherishes local charm and historic architecture in Albany and Troy.

Melissa’s client-first approach—honed at Spa Mirbeau and through years bartending and waitressing—ensures every home‑buying experience is personalized, calm, and stress‑free. She loves envisioning how a house can become a warm, inviting home and matching clients with properties that reflect their lifestyle.

When she’s not guiding buyers, you’ll find her paddleboarding on the lake, kayaking, attending live music events, or road‑tripping with friends. At home, she relaxes with her miniature pinscher, Oscar, and two rescue cats, Momo and Rox.

If you want an agent who listens closely, values community, and brings contagious enthusiasm to every showing, Melissa Hammond is your dedicated partner in finding the perfect home.
