Your dedication, commitment, and professionalism you displayed throughout this process was exceptional
On behalf of Diane and myself, I would like to thank you for the outstanding job you did for us. Your dedication, commitment, and professionalism you displayed throughout this process was exceptional. I sincerely hope this is our last property that we buy. However, if the need ever arises and we should require the services of a real-estate agent, you will be the first to know.

I would like to thank you for your efforts in selling our country home
I would like to thank you for your efforts in selling our country home in Dunany. We had more visits with your listing then with previous ones with different agents. I don’t know what you did different, but it worked! We were thrilled that we had 3 parties interested in the home, and 2 ended up submitting offers. You were also the first to request an updated certificate of location even before offers came in. This request turned out to be very smart indeed, as it took a very long time to get a land surveyor to complete the certificate.
Cathy Fleischmann
Thank you for all your hard work

A renowned Sotheby's and the dedication of Melanie Clarke, have made that we sold the house in 2 months and a half
A renowned Sotheby's and the dedication of Melanie Clarke, have made it so we sold our house in 2 and a half months, at the third offer, having refused the first because of the dates of possession. And the second offer was terminated after the specified date.Appointments, meetings, follow-ups, everything was done with professionalism ...I would recommend you, which I have done many times.

Melanie Clarke, a name to remember
Melanie Clarke, a name to remember,It was during our search for a haven of peace in the Laurentians region that we made the choice to contact the Sotheby's site for the quality of the houses that they represent. This is where we met the famous real estate agent Mélanie Clarke. A broker of incomparable professionalism.Our experience with Melanie Clarke was exceptional, always present on call as needed despite the many homes we visited from St-Adele, Val-Morin, Val-David and St-Agathe des Monts. Mélanie masters the Laurentian region and has never hesitated to advise us, inform us and support us in our research. Her professionalism, her discretion and her dynamism brought these fruits and took us to finally find our home.A big thank you Melanie for your services and I will advise all those looking for a home to contact Melanie Clarke at Sotheby's.

Superstar Sotheby’s Real Estate Agent
When we first decided to contact Sotheby’s Québec to handle the sale of our family property on Lac Archambault in St Donat we were worried they might not want to list it: we knew our property wouldn’t be an easy sell. Even though it has a beautiful and unique red pine forest, with close to 500 feet of rocky waterfront, and is one of the last large properties on the lake, it isn't the typically sought after postage size lot with easy beach access with a ready-made four season chalet. Our cottage is a charming but small three-season teardown. No, we knew our property would be a tough listing for any real estate agent, and it would take a special buyer with a love of the land and vision.And it would take a special real estate agent with tenacity and vision as well. Fortunately at Sotheby’s Québec Melanie Clarke specializes in higher-end properties in the Laurentian and the Lanaudière region. And we can’t thank her enough: her skill, patience, expertise, and willingness to go way beyond the call of regular duty at every step of the way of what proved to be a difficult sale to navigate, more difficult than any of us could have imagined, made selling our family property in the end a reality. Neither my sister, nor my sister-in-law, nor myself could imagine anyone else being more wonderful to deal with. Melanie addressed the numerous problems that popped up with patience, persistence and aplomb. Her guidance and assistance were invaluable. She was a consummate professional and we can’t recommend her highly enough. Thanks to Melanie and Sotheby’s our property did find the special buyer it was waiting for. Merci Melanie!

I found her to be most professional, friendly, organized, encouraging, and approachable
I would highly recommend Melanie Clarke as a superb realtor. I found her to be most professional, friendly, organized, encouraging, and approachable. During our time together, working through the rollercoaster details of our property, she was practical, helpful, straightforward, and thorough. She was also available at any time in various ways, which was a plus because of our different time zones. My sister and I could count on her assistance and practical advice from before our contract right through to the tricky finish. We are most grateful and impressed.

Our experience with Melanie was the best we've ever had with a real estate broker
Our experience with Melanie was the best we've ever had with a real estate broker. The company we used previous to Sotheby's only brought in one prospective buyer. Melanie brought in a continuous stream of prospects. She was extremely responsive returning phone calls and emails almost immediately.Our property is far from her office and even so she made numerous trips readily seeing any prospects who showed interest.She helped us determine the real value of our home and negotiated well with the ultimate buyer to provide us with benefits not normally enjoyed by sellers.The is very detail-oriented and helped us provide all the necessary information to list, sell and conclude the sale of the property.It is clear that Sotheby's is a first-class company and Melanie is one of their exceptional people. She helped us sell our property in the country during a difficult time in the market. I would recommend her without exception.

Melanie is an excellent broker. She is an intuitive, generous person who really cares about her clients.
Melanie is an excellent broker. She is an intuitive, generous person who really cares about her clients. For my husband and me, she was the perfect person to help us find our dream home. Originally, my husband and I had differences of opinion in what we wanted, but she listened to both of us and offered us listings that allowed us to discuss and converge on a common vision. When I told her that I had fallen in love with a specific lake, she made sure to call me first when a house became available. The house she found for us is a dream come true. She was patient, understanding, and very intuitive. She made the whole experience extremely easy and comfortable. I am happy to give Melanie my highest recommendation!
Joanna Berzowska
Melanie is a dedicated professional and very effective
Melanie has been a great support for the sale of our property, she is a dedicated professional and very effective. In a competitive market such as Laurentides, it can make a difference. I recommend it without hesitation.
Michel Thériault & Sylvie Sénécal
We will always be grateful to Melanie for her support and commitment to help us achieve our goals
“When you live 3,000 miles away from the house you are trying to sell it is crucial that you have an agent that you can trust and will work hard to achieve a sale. Melanie delivered on both these counts. Throughout the time she acted for us, Melanie made herself available at any time to keep us informed and to discuss what our next steps should be. She was totally honest in her views which I very much appreciated. On a personal as well as professional level we will always be grateful to Melanie for her support and commitment to help us achieve our goals.”

I truly believe anyone who is fortunate enough to meet and contract with Melanie Clarke will be 100% pleased
It is my utmost pleasure to tell you about my experience when working with MELANIE CLARKE.I heard “from a neighbor” that a young woman by the name of Melanie Clarke sold her home and they were very happy with this agent. I made an appt. to meet Melanie and it was “immediately a good connection”.From the first day I met Melanie till the day we signed for the sale of my home at a lake in the Laurentians, Melanie was a true professional – I was trying very hard to be strong as my husband had just passed away and I didn’t want the house anymore without him. Melanie was kind and considerate and fortunately sold my home (at a lake in the winter) within four months. I think (if memory serves me correctly) my home was the only lakefront property to sell that yr in that area.I truly believe anyone who is fortunate enough to meet and contract with Melanie Clarke will be 100% pleased.

Melanie immediately got the feel for what our needs were and found us the perfect home and right in time for the holidays!
I was looking for a property in the Laurentians for quite a while but I never seemed to find the right home for our family. Luckily, I found Melanie by following up on one of her listings. Although that first home was not the right fit for us, Melanie immediately got the feel for what our needs were and found us the perfect home and right in time for the holidays! This wasn’t our first time buying property and the next time we do, we’ll be going right back to Melanie. I suggest you do the same!”

Robin Duquette and Manon Belair
She immediately knew how we were as people, what we were looking for in a property and intuitively understood our concerns during the purchase.
We had the experience of working with Melanie Clarke in the purchase of what has turned out to be the home we always dreamed of having outside of the city. We met Melanie when we were casually browsing homes, seeing what was out there in this market, something completely unknown to us. She knew immediately what we were like as people, what we were after in a property, and had an intuitive understanding of our concerns in the purchase, our wants in looking for a space for us to enjoy outside of the hustle and bustle of our city lives.We gravitated to her immediately and asked her to help us look for a property – which she helped us find almost immediately. She seemed energized by the challenge, and was focused and enthusiastic, even as the nitty-gritty of the details of the eventual purchase would have likely started to wear us out. The whole experience seemed to fly by, and before we knew it, we were sitting in our new home.We’re sitting in there right now!Thanks, Melanie!”
Jen and Jeremy
She was professional, well informed and quickly grasped what we were looking for
We had the pleasure of meeting Melanie Clarke this spring, when we visited one of her listings. She was professional, well-informed and quickly grasped what we were looking for. Following that visit, we engaged Melanie to help us find the perfect chalet for us and she did. She is an excellent listener, she responds quickly, either from her vast knowledge of the Laurentians or from research she would conduct to ensure that we were provided with accurate information. She was always patient and never pushy, even when we were being difficult and, following a lot of visits we found exactly what we were looking for. She guided us expertly through the negotiation/purchase process and was always on our side. If you are looking for an agent to look out for your interests, Melanie is the person for you!
Donald Olds
She has always been competently, professionally and empathically involved throughout the process.
Mrs. Clarke was our broker when we sold our house in St-Adolphe. She took the time to understand our problem and knew that the process would be long and difficult. She was perseverant. She has always been competently, professionally and empathically involved throughout the process.

We were impressed by the sensitivity she showed as we went about the very emotional process of selling a property which had been in the family since 1930.
Our cottage in the Laurentians was recently sold. Melanie was our agent, and over the one-year process, we were impressed by the sensitivity she showed as we went about the very emotional process of selling a property that had been in the family since 1930. She respected our feelings and our expectations, and always responded immediately and kindly to our questions and concerns. She found what we feel is the perfect family to move forward with this property. We are very thankful that we were able to have Melanie as our agent.

With her patience, guidance, and vast knowledge of the surrounding areas of the Laurentians, she guided us to the perfect place which we can now call our own.
We recently purchased a country house in the Laurentians after a lengthy search to find the perfect setting and house for our family. After meeting Melanie early in the process, we knew right away that she was the right real estate broker for us.We can’t speak highly enough of our experience with Melanie. Over the course of about a year, she arranged many visits and repeat visits at our convenience, even on short notice. With her patience, guidance, and vast knowledge of the surrounding areas of the Laurentians, she guided us to the perfect place which we can now call our own.We enjoyed her smile and great disposition and she was always a pleasure to work with. She was very hands on (and even carefully climbed over fences and walked in the deep snow while pregnant at the time) to show us all the details of the homes we were visiting.Melanie never pressured us to make an offer, and didn’t get impatient as we went through all the pros and cons of each home that we visited. It was important to her that we would fall in love with the place we would eventually buy.When we were finally ready to make an offer on a home we loved, she took care of everything flawlessly, and made the whole experience stress-free. We can’t thank her enough for all the effort it took to make our dream a reality.We highly recommend Melanie for anyone looking to buy or sell a home! You will definitely be completely happy with her service.

Once an offer is accepted, Melanie takes control of the final necessary documentation needed and assures that all commitments are met by both parties in order to proceed with the transaction.Finally, she is present at the closing of the sale or purchase and works closely with the Notary to assure a clean transaction is concluded.In my experience of over 35 years in the Real Estate Market as an investor, Melanie Clarke is without a doubt the most professional, pleasant and effective person I have encountered.
