About Melissa Grady

I LOVE Real Estate! Period. I come from an entire family of real estate salespeople and my parents, Pat and Betty Grady, owned and operated our family firm, Grady Realtors Inc. since 1969. It's in my blood! I grew up showing houses with my parents and listening in on appointments! I went to college to become an art teacher, got my degree and began teaching high school art for four years right out of college. I decided to take the real estate course and get my license to work part time after school hours and in the summers. After two years of working both jobs, I left teaching to pursue my career in real estate full time! Luckily, I have been able to use my creative mind every day since leaving teaching art. I have always been very active in community service volunteering time and also received a Community Service Award nominated by my peers of the Capitol Area Realtors. I have most recently served on the Board of Directors for the Springfield Old Capitol Art Fair, Springfield Art Association, Vachel Lindsay Association Board of Directors, the St. Patrick's Day Parade Board, the Junior League of Springfield, and was VIP for the United Cerebral Palsy and Muscular Dystrophy Association, and a regular volunteer for Christ The King School. I also was one of Springfield's first accredited staging professionals and I will always work closely with sellers to stage their home for a fast and prosperous sale! Moving is STRESSFUL!!! Each time I have moved I have grown a whole new appreciation for the hard work behind getting ready for the market to sell, and finding a home that is perfect for my family! I empathize in the stress that goes on behind the scenes! You may be selling your first home you brought babies home to, maybe you are upgrading to a bigger home, maybe you are selling your last home or even your parents home, a job relocation, family tragedy, financial reasons, the list goes on and on why we move. So... how about a no nonsense aggressive agent with a heart? I want to take some of the stress off your worry list! I feel a tremendous amount of responsibility to my sellers and buyers and I am committed to hard work and dedication every step of the way! This is a team effort and I am committed to cross the finish line with you!!!
