Hi, I’m Mel Abbott, and I am incredibly grateful and excited for the opportunity to work with you! Whether you are exploring the housing market for the first time, looking for a second house, or interested in selling your home, I am committed to providing a joyful and professional experience, ensuring the process is as smooth and pleasant as possible. I am deeply passionate about real estate and even more passionate and devoted to providing clients with a positive, personalized experience that begins with our first meeting and extends beyond the day of closing.

My professional and personal ventures have afforded me a unique perspective and skill set that lends itself to helping clients at all phases of the real estate process. After seven years of working in elderly subsidized housing, I understand and appreciate how meaningful it is to have a place to call home. When purchasing my first home and then selling it eight years later, I learned the importance of having a trustworthy, energetic, organized, and caring partner who understands varying housing markets and is committed to exceeding client expectations. I am dedicated to serving clients and the community with integrity and am a member of the National Association of Realtors, New Haven Middlesex Association of Realtors, and Smart MLS. 

In addition to real estate, I also love writing, organizing, hiking with my husband and our rescue dog, Hazel, and spending time with family and friends. Born and raised in Connecticut, I have lived in several towns - Wallingford, North Haven, Guilford, and Madison, to name a few. I love our state from the northwest hills to the shoreline and everything in between; Connecticut is a wonderful place to call home! I look forward to getting to know you and learning more about your real estate dreams so together we can turn them into a reality.
