About us


As an ICON agent and real estate investment rock star, I specialize in helping investors find cash-flowing properties along the stunning Emerald Coast of Florida. Whether you're searching for flips, long-term rentals, or short-term rental opportunities, I am passionate about uncovering lucrative real estate ventures that align with your goals. My own experience as a property owner—including short-term rentals and single- and multi-family properties—allows me to offer valuable insights and guidance for maximizing returns.

In addition to working with investors, I also assist sellers in successfully marketing and selling their properties. With a deep understanding of marketing strategies and a commitment to showcasing properties in their best light, I help sellers achieve optimal results in today’s competitive market.

With a JD in Law from Texas Wesleyan Law School and over 26 years of legal experience, I bring a unique perspective to real estate investment. My legal background equips me to navigate complex transactions and ensure that my clients’ interests are protected every step of the way. I thrive on helping people achieve their investment dreams and secure financial success through strategic property acquisitions.

When I’m not immersed in real estate, you’ll likely find me cheering on the Dallas Stars or enjoying the serene beauty of the beach. I believe that every great vision begins with a conversation, and I’m here to help turn your dreams into reality.

Let’s connect and discuss how I can help you unlock the potential of real estate investment!

If I could give Melissa 100 stars, I would. She is hands down the BEST realtor that I have ever worked with... and I have worked with MANY. We found Melissa on Bigger Pockets and after a thorough review of her experience and client reviews we felt confident that she was the right choice for us. We were buying our first investment property, and while we had spent months researching investments, I knew we needed a top notch and seasoned realtor to guide us through this process. Melissa exceeded every expectation. She is extremely knowledgeable in real estate investing as she is an investor herself. She has been doing this for years and was able to help guide me to the perfect property. Not only does Melissa have all the knowledge and expertise to help guide new or seasoned investors, but she is also very prompt in responding to any text or email. I honestly don't know how she does it. Every time I would send her a new property that I was potentially interested in, she would respond (usually within minutes, sometimes an hour) with all of the information that I could need to help inform my decision process. On the rare occasion that she couldn't get me all the information within the hour, she would respond just to let me know she was working on it. She has a fantastic attitude and is always right there to help with any questions or issues that arise. She was there every step of the way through the buying process and even preformed our walk throughs and other tasks that were difficult for us to do as out of state investors. After the purchase was complete, she provided a fantastic list of contacts for everything we needed to get our STR up and running. She is a gem of a human and I am SO SO glad that we made the choice to go with her! She will be the only realtor I ever work with if we purchase more properties in the panhandle. Do yourself a favor and go with Melissa!

Melissa excels at assisting real estate investors, particularly those who are new to the market. She is so prompt that it is hard to keep up with her :-). She offers great assistance when purchasing remotely. She gives you the information you need to make decisions and offers excellent advice without being overbearing at any time. She is the best choice for the PCB/Destin area.

I cannot express how happy we were to work with Melissa. From the first text to the closing of the deal on our house Melissa responded immediately to every question we had and always made herself available to take our calls. The negotiations went very smoothly as she had our best interest in mind, even managed to get the closing moved up for us! She is very knowledgeable in the housing/investment market. Melissa has a large network of contacts who work closely with her that made the buying process a breeze. She handled all the inspection appointments and went above and beyond getting some repairs taken care of before closing. Since we are in another state, it was also very helpful that she gave us lots of recommendations of other companies/individuals who could provide work for us in the future. We will definitely be working with her again on our next investment property!

Melissa was a pleasure to work with. She was extremely quick in securing a contract and worked with the seller’s to meet my requests. She worked well past traditional business hours to ensure that we met the set closing date. Working with not just the sellers and myself, she took care of all inspection appointments, repairs, and worked with my lender for information. Melissa sets the standard for what a real estate agent is supposed to be. She went beyond what I thought an agent should do and got me into a home with less stress than I planned for. Give her a call if you want to work with the best!

We can’t say enough great things about Melissa Haworth! She was an absolute rockstar during our military move to Niceville, Florida. From the moment we connected, Melissa was professional, fun, and incredibly responsive to our needs. She made the entire process smooth and stress-free, which was no small feat given the tight timeline we were under. Melissa’s deep knowledge of the area and her keen understanding of the market helped us find the perfect home in Deer Moss Creek. She took the time to listen to our needs and made sure every detail was covered. Her communication was top-notch, and we always felt like a priority. We would gladly work with Melissa again and recommend her to anyone looking for a dedicated, knowledgeable, and friendly realtor. Thank you, Melissa, for helping us find our dream home!

I was connected to Melissa by someone in her network and I’m so grateful. She is a knowledgeable guide, a firm advocate and a bit of a bestie when I needed one. She kept us on top of paperwork and glided us through a short escrow. I moved into my new townhome today thanks to Melissa stepping up. I ain’t moving for a while but when I’m ready Melissa will be the first one I call.

My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Melissa during our home buying process, and we cannot recommend her enough! She was incredibly informative, punctual, knowledgeable, and kind throughout the entire experience. Melissa went above and beyond to ensure that we understood every step of the process, which was invaluable as first-time buyers interested in investment properties. Not only did she explain things clearly, but she also ran the numbers to help validate the investment potential of each property, which was incredibly helpful. Her dedication and attention to detail made us feel confident in our decisions. Melissa truly went out of her way to provide exceptional service, and we’re so grateful to have had her on our side. If you’re looking for a real estate agent who genuinely cares and will give you the best possible experience, look no further than Melissa. We couldn’t be happier with our experience!

I knew of Melissa from my time as a BiggerPockets employee. She and helped me sell my STR in Panama City Beach in a time when properties weren't really selling quickly. She was creative in her approach and she really went above and beyond to help my wife and I! I would absolutely recommend working with her for your listings and when you're looking to buy. I will be using her again soon!
