Melissa Schilk is a Michigan Realtor with more than 10 years of real estate experience. She helps buyers and sellers across Southeast Michigan navigate major moves with clarity, confidence, and practical guidance. Known for being straightforward, responsive, and highly involved, Melissa stays engaged from the first conversation through closing.

Her approach reflects the belief that successful real estate involves much more than finding a home online or placing a sign in the yard. Melissa helps buyers evaluate options, understand the steps ahead, prepare competitive offers, and negotiate effectively. She also guides sellers through preparation, positioning, negotiations, and the details that keep a transaction moving. Throughout the process, she works to identify potential challenges early and give clients the information they need to make sound decisions.

Melissa serves first-time buyers, experienced homeowners, and families preparing for their next chapter. Whether a transaction is straightforward or complicated, she focuses on honest communication, careful follow-through, and strong representation. Her knowledge of Southeast Michigan communities helps clients consider not only a property, but also the location, lifestyle, and practical factors that shape a move.

As the wife of a Detroit firefighter, Melissa has a personal connection to the first-responder community. She created a dedicated First Responder Home Program to give back to firefighters, police officers, EMS professionals, and other first responders who serve their communities every day. Eligible clients can access special benefits when buying or selling a home with her.

For Melissa, real estate is built on relationships rather than transactions. She aims to provide every client with the level of service and communication she would expect for her own family. As a Realtor with Epique Realty, Melissa combines experience, local market knowledge, and hands-on support to help Southeast Michigan buyers and sellers move forward with confidence. Her goal is to make each move feel informed, manageable, and well supported.

Beyond real estate, Melissa is a devoted wife, proud mother of two teenagers, and dog mom. Family is at the heart of her life, whether she’s cheering on her children at sporting events, spending time with loved ones, or making memories together. Outside of her busy schedule, she enjoys traveling, exploring new places, and making the most of life’s experiences. Her appreciation for family, community, and meaningful relationships carries through into both her personal life and her career.
