About Melissa Wilton
How I'd describe myself
Selling a home rarely happens on a quiet week. It usually lands in the middle of everything else life is doing, and it deserves someone who notices the details you do not have time for.
I am a senior sales consultant at Hartles & Co, a twelve-person team working across Hamilton and the wider Waikato.
Consistently recognised as one of Lugtons Top Achievers, I have been doing this for close to seventeen years, and what keeps me here is not the transactions, it is the people and the connections. I have had the honour of having clients come back to me time and time again, or send someone they love my way. That is the measure I trust and appreciate most, because it only happens when people feel properly looked after, not just sold to.
I believe the best real estate is quiet, considered, and thorough. Not the loudest campaign, but the one that gets the details right the first time. My attention to detail goes further than most: I have been known to get out the leaf blower before a photo shoot, run the vacuum through one last time, even make a bed if it needs making. There is no task too small if it means your home is ready to be seen in its best light.
Behind every campaign sits our Engine Room, a dedicated support team managing the marketing, the detail and the moving parts of your sale, so nothing depends on one person's diary. You get me, fully across the detail, backed by a team who make sure nothing is left to chance.
If a move is on your mind, even if it is only an early thought, I would love to talk it through with you. I will notice the things that matter, so you do not have to carry them alone.

Testimonials
Listing our property was not as straight-forward as we would have liked. Other agents brushed us off, however Melissa walked us through the process, leveraged her contacts and was upbeat, positive, extremely hard working, yet realistic. Selling our property was a joy. Melissa’s strategy, price point and approach were spot on. Melissa did not cut corners or compromise standards. We appreciated Melissa so much, we enlisted her with our purchase. Again, through the whole buying process Melissa was professional, level-headed, positive and always did the right thing. At all times she was professional, listened and sought to understand before offering advice. Melissa was always available and answered our emails and calls promptly and made us feel as though we were her only customer - which of course we weren’t but she made us feel like we were. We chose Lugtons through a recommendation and will stay and recommend Lugtons to others because of people like Melissa. Thank you for creating a culture where people like Melissa can thrive and provide exceptional service like she did with us.- Tim & Emma

"Brilliant service, no pressure, followed my instructions. The service of a real estate agent can often be referred to as "pushy". This was not my experience. I was asked what I was wanting in a real estate agent and that was respected. Melissa worked 100% for my interests and as a result I am very happy with my investment. - Tim N-
Melissa goes above and beyond in everything that she does, her communication, her kindness, her professionalism. Her genuine care exceeds any other agent. We thought this was the “norm”, but certainly Melissa is one of a kind and we have been so fortunate to work with someone who makes a stressful process an absolute pleasure. Melissa not only cares about sellers but we also saw this care towards her buyers. It is so comforting to know you can actually trust Melissa and we will use her for sure in the future. Melissa is such an asset to Lugtons. Thanks for having such a star shining in your team!"- Phil & Jess-
