Meet Melissa Bailey

Hi, I’m Melissa Bailey — a proud Arizona native and real estate professional with a real passion for helping people build the life they want through real estate. Whether you’re buying, selling, or investing, I’m here to make the process straightforward, well-planned, and truly worthwhile.

With over 200 personal career sales and years of hands-on experience across Mesa, Phoenix, Buckeye, Tempe, Gilbert, Chandler, Goodyear, Queen Creek, Avondale, Apache Junction, and San Tan Valley, I’ve seen just about every kind of market — and I’ve helped my clients navigate them all with confidence.

My approach is simple: clear communication, smart strategy, and concierge-level service from start to finish. I’ve built a team of kind, capable professionals to support you every step of the way, and I personally stay involved to make sure every detail is handled right.

I’ve been honored to be recognized as a top 1% agent in Arizona, named Woman of the Year by Homeowner Magazine, and featured as Best of Zillow — but what I value most is the trust my clients place in me. I also lead the Femmevestor Academy, which helps more women get into real estate investing and build long-term wealth.

At the end of the day, I love what I do because I get to be a guide through some of life’s biggest transitions — and help people come out stronger on the other side.

Ready to take the next step? Let’s embark on this journey together!

FAQ

Common questions

Sharing particular information when connecting with a real estate agent can help give you an idea of your home’s value in today’s market. The in-person expertise of a real estate agent will give you a more accurate opinion of your home’s value.

Your first step is to hire a real estate agent you trust. Together, you will set an asking price, prepare your home for listing, list and market your property, negotiate an offer, and close on the sale.

A real estate agent is paid as part of the closing costs, which comes out of the sale proceeds at the end of the process.

A professional appraiser will inspect a property and compare it to other similar homes in the area. From there, a fair market value is determined. Unless you plan on paying all cash for a property, you will likely need a home appraisal.

There are many factors that affect the housing market, but understanding what to expect – and being prepared beforehand – can make buying and selling a property at the same time possible.

Any fixture that is ‘attached’ or built into the house typically remains. For example, if your house has built-in bookshelves, they typically stay with the house. The same is true of kitchen or bathroom fixtures, and fireplaces. Exceptions and details can be discussed during the negotiation process.

Factors such as the time of year and market conditions play a big role in how quickly a property sells. How you price, market and stage your home are also very important variables that will affect how long a home remains on the market.

When selling a property, it is incumbent upon the seller to disclose any details about the home that might negatively affect its value.

If someone is selling a home that needs repairs – yet chooses not to fix them – they may choose to list a property as-is. Disclosures and inspections are typical steps in the process. In an as-is sale, a buyer is willingly purchasing the home in its current state with full knowledge of its condition.

In most cases, the buyer pays for the home inspection.

The goal is to make your home as appealing as possible to the most potential buyers, before photos of your home are taken. Staging your home can include anything from redecorating to rearranging furniture, cleaning or other aesthetic strategies to present the home in the best possible light. You can do it yourself, have your real estate agent guide you, or hire a staging company.
