Melissa Hetherington has spent her life making people, places and properties look good. As a presenter with Channel 7 for over a decade she worked on iconic lifestyle shows including Melbourne Weekender, Sunrise & Coxy’s Big Break, she presented some of Australia’s most unforgettable travel locations…while as an actor and sports broadcaster she was known for making every play memorable.
From her earliest days in the entertainment industry, it’s been Melissa’s job to forge the connection that takes people on a journey of interest, involvement and ultimately, action. This ability to connect has taken Melissa around the world - writing, producing and presenting her own material, backing herself to succeed in the tough United States market…and successfully ‘selling’ her innate understanding of what audiences want at home and abroad.
So it’s no surprise that when she made a much-anticipated move into the real estate industry, Melissa’s natural ability to create connection and build on benefits became her sales superpower! Melissa is the agent other agents collaborate with to produce superstar videos that sell. She’s the presentation professional they call to discuss strategy and technique. And she’s the colleague they trust to add star-power to the sale.
Channelling her charm and energy into presenting the benefits of vendors’ properties has seen Melisa add real value to their selling prices …achieving beyond-expectation results and building lifelong connections with vendors and buyers alike. It’s no surprise then, that Melissa is currently training to become an auctioneer…taking her ability to add value to an all new level!
For Melissa, property and presenting the benefits of properties, is a family affair. Working in real estate is a lifestyle choice that enables Melissa to regularly collaborate with her husband Matt to produce and polish her vendors’ productions…while providing the time they need to work together on their most successful collaboration to date – their two young children!
