ABOUT MELANIE

Melanie Bauer, ABR, CPS

Real Estate Consultant | Certified Pricing Strategist | Accredited Buyer's Representative

Melanie Bauer is a top-performing real estate agent in the Greater Greenville, South Carolina area, known for her deep local roots, relocation expertise, and creative problem-solving that gets even the toughest transactions to the closing table.


After more than a decade of relocating in and around the Southeast—eleven moves in thirteen years—Melanie knows firsthand the excitement and stress that come with buying or selling a home. Now happily settled in Seneca, she loves being close to Greenville, where her oldest daughter and two grandkids live—her favorite reason to stay rooted in the Upstate.


As both a local expert and Accredited Buyer’s Representative, Melanie brings unmatched insight into Greenville, Seneca, Anderson, and the surrounding Upstate lake and mountain communities—as well as the scenic mountain and lake regions of Murphy, North Carolina, where she continues to help clients buy and sell with confidence.


Whether it’s a lakefront property on Keowee, a mountain retreat near Murphy, or a downtown Greenville condo, her clients benefit from her sharp negotiation skills, market knowledge, and out-of-the-box approach to problem solving.


When she’s not matching clients with their perfect homes, you’ll find Melanie outdoors—cycling mountain roads, hiking with her dogs, or paddleboarding and boating on the Carolina lakes she loves.


Her clients describe her as innovative, tenacious, and genuinely invested in their success. Melanie doesn’t just sell homes—she helps people write the next chapter of their story in the Upstate and beyond.
