About Melissa Dunham

My Pittsburgh roots began in a quiet, quaint neighborhood called Deerfield Manor in Upper St. Clair, and over the years I’ve built a life in neighborhoods from Bridgeville to Shadyside, Wexford to Robinson, and Coraopolis—each one adding to my understanding of what makes this region feel like home.

I’ve earned six professional certifications and designations—each requiring significant time, cost, and commitment. While many agents stop at the basics, I believe in going further to better serve the people who trust me with one of life’s biggest decisions.

I’m proud to work alongside the Michael & Nicole Reed Team—widely recognized as one of the most trusted, results-driven teams in the region. Our collaborative approach and depth of expertise mean our clients receive unmatched service and representation.

I may be a diva when it comes to my standards—but you want the diva. The diva has high expectations, doesn’t settle for less, and ensures you’re getting the best of the best when it comes to vendors, contractors, and service. I take pride in holding myself to a high standard because my clients deserve nothing less.

When I’m not working, life is all about the people who give me purpose—my kids, Remington and Vivienne. They bring joy, laughter, and beautiful chaos to my world. I love finding the latest DIY classes from cooking to candle-making, discovering new restaurants, and swirling a glass of wine while pretending I know what tannins are. Yoga classes? I google them, more than I actually go, but the intent is definitely there. I’m endlessly thankful for my partner, who matches my hustle but somehow still manages to get dinner on the table and keep the house running—true superhero status.

Advocacy is what truly sets me apart. Whether I’m standing up to an unethical agent, confronting a bully, or holding my ground in a crowded room, I won’t back down. I love helping people—whether it’s mentoring an agent on my team or holding a friend’s hand while cheering them on.

Lastly, I’m lucky enough to have the greatest woman assisting me in my business—Carrianne. She’s a fellow realtor on our team and an essential part of why I thrive. I’ll never forget when she first joined the Michael & Nicole Reed Team and told me, “I hope to be like you someday—where I choose the client, not the other way around.” That moment stuck with me, and now she’s right beside me, making it happen.
