About me
Melissa Tippey – Mortgage Specialist, Family Advocate, and Your Go-To Guide for Home Financing
With over a decade of experience in mortgage and real estate (2011 started), I’ve built a career rooted in resilience, precision, and genuine care. I’m proud to have earned the Resilience Award and multiple Cleanest File Awards (2019–2021) for submitting mortgage files with the fewest client conditions—proof of my commitment to making the process smooth and stress-free.
But beyond the numbers and accolades, my greatest achievements are personal: raising two incredible children, nurturing a joyful household, and building lasting relationships with clients who return time and again for guidance and support.
When I’m not helping families secure their dream homes, you’ll find me:
- Fishing, camping, and golfing in the great outdoors
- Collecting vinyl records that spark childhood memories
- Caring for my tropical “happy house” plants
- Spoiling my three dogs (ask me about the story—they’re stars in their own right!)
- Tackling home improvement projects, inside and out
- Coaching kids and helping them grow through sports

Testimonials
Melissa Tippey was very personable and professional, she worked day and night to get us pre-approved and to get us the best rate. Also no matter what day or time I could message her and she would give us advice or quotes on the homes we were looking at. When we wanted to put in an offer on a house she worked after hours to make sure we had our pre-approval letter ready and worked closely with our realtor. She is truly one of the best. We will Definitely be referring our friends and family.
Oh my, where do I begin? This is my first home, and I've been putting this off for YEARS. I mentioned this to a good friend of mine early this year and she told me to contact Buddy. She had such a great experience with him and the people around him when purchasing her home. I contacted Buddy and was contacted by Melissa, and she made this experience... AMAZING. There was no pushing, no stress (from her- now from me that's a different story), lots of updates and follow ups. For a minute there I thought me finding a place I would want to call home wouldn't happen this year, but she always had words of encouragement. Well, now I'm hopefully, just a couple of weeks from closing. She made recommendations for things she learned from buying home(s) and I asked for those things as well, which I wouldn't have known if it wasn't for her. I have nothing but great things to say about her. To top it all off, my credit score was I want to say in the 650s when I first talked with Melissa. She recommended a great credit repair company and yesterday my credit score went up again and I'm sitting at a 739 (according to Experian)! So, yea, I would recommend Melissa and her team 100 times over! Thank you for being so kind and the patience you’ve shown. Not sure of the exact time frame but I've been working with Melissa since February of 2025 and today is October 9, 2025.
Right from go Melissa has shown above & beyond help and very caring. I'm in a hardship to start & she has guided & shown support from the beginning. I'm looking forward to finish out my journey with her. Highly recommend!
Melissa was outstanding to work with! Her clear and consistent communication made our home purchase loan process easy and worry-free. We strongly recommend her!
Melissa is very professional and willing to help in any way possible to make for a good buyers experience. I would recommend her to anyone buying a house in her area it will be a good buying experience.
My business dealings with Melissa have always been fantastic! She’s smart, knowledgeable, professional, and she gets the job done! There’s not enough stars in the sky to rate her. Give her a shot, you won’t be disappointed!
