Melissa Challis

I have a deep love for Texas, living most of my life in this great state. I moved to Forney in 2018 and fell in love with the small town that has boomed over the last few years making it a mecca for real estate. I am a stay at home mom, an HR manager for our family business JM Junk Removers, and I do real estate on the side. I love to push myself mentally and juggling all that's on my plate has definitely pushed me to grow, all of which have furthered my experience with sales, marketing, customer service and more! I graduated from Brigham Young University in 2011 with a Bachelors in English which has been an asset in reading and editing contracts within real estate. I am also bilingual, being that Spanish is my first language. My goal is to give each client individual attention, great communication, and a seamless experience when purchasing or selling a home.

What My Clients Say

Melissa was awesome to work with. I had spoken to several other agents and none seemed to listen to my specifics about selling my home. Melissa listened and understood my needs. She came up with a great plan for my situation and was great with communication. She got the sale done as quickly as I needed and for the value I hoped for. I wont hesitate to contact her again for my future real estate needs and to recommend her to anyone who asks!

Melissa is absolutely amazing!! We were a little nervous our house would take a while to sell because there were so many houses on the market but she helped up get a good price and under contract in less than 24 hours. The entire process was stress free, I would recommend her to anyone!! Thank you Melissa!

A RARE FIND IN STARWOOD! SPACE, PRIVACY AND OVER $150,000 IN RECENT RENOVATIONS. Set on an oversized .33-acre lot, one of the largest currently available in Starwood, 5143 Stillwater Trail offers something that simply cannot be recreated through renovation: land, mature trees and exceptional privacy. The backyard feels like a private retreat, with lush established landscaping surrounding the sparkling pool and spa, generous lawn, multiple areas to relax or entertain, and remarkable separation from neighboring homes. Inside, approximately 4,600 square feet has been extensively updated, combining the character and generous proportions of established Starwood with the finishes today’s buyers want. Solid red oak hardwood floors extend throughout the first floor, complemented by fresh interior paint, designer lighting, plantation shutters, replacement windows and fresh carpet. The renovated kitchen features quartz countertops, an oversized center island and abundant workspace, opening naturally to spacious living areas overlooking the backyard. The first-floor primary suite includes a beautifully updated bath, while a private executive office provides dedicated work-from-home space. Upstairs, additional bedrooms are joined by both a game room and media room, providing exceptional flexibility for family and guests. Renovated bathrooms, new (2025) water heaters, updated lighting and extensive cosmetic and mechanical improvements make this home truly move-in ready. Outside, the combination is increasingly difficult to duplicate: an oversized homesite, mature landscaping, exceptional privacy, pool and spa, expansive lawn, 3-car garage and porte cochere—all behind the gates of one of Frisco’s most sought-after communities. You can renovate a home. You can’t recreate the lot. At 5143 Stillwater, you don’t have to choose between the two.
