Melissa Klipowicz

I am a proud member of the D. MottL Realty Group and Southwestern Michigan Association of Realtors.  I have been a resident of Southwest Michigan since 2008 and immediately fell in love with my hometown of Buchanan.  My husband Kevin and I chose Buchanan to raise our three daughters and couldn't be happier. I have personally been through the buy/sell process several times as we finally found our forever home.  I also hold a professional license in Life, Health, Property and Casualty insurance and have spent over a decade in retail management.   In my spare time you can find me volunteering for school events with our daughters, digging in our gardens and raises chickens and goats!  PURE MICHIGAN at its finest!

 

I am a realtor at heart and I truly understand the stress of buying and selling a home.  Let me find your forever home or right now home - I promise I will make it an amazing experience for you!
