Licensed Florida broker Allison Melvin has a jaw-dropping sales portfolio spanning the gamut of $16,000 retirement condos to $9-million luxury estates. The former Boston native and registered real estate appraiser relocated to Florida -- via California -- in 1994 where she quickly established herself as a million dollar realtor whose oceanfront, golf and country club listings are regularly featured on WorldProperties.com. In keeping with today's current real estate trends, Allison also works with investors active in the short sale and bank owned properties market while continuing to service her regular client base. She is certified as a specialist in both the Luxury Collection and Transnational Referral fields. Those who know Allison recognize that she is as passionate about her travel as she is about her career. She has crisscrossed the globe from the capital cities and back waters of the U.S., Canada, Australia and Europe to the ski slopes of New Zealand. Her love of the open road once landed her in Spearfish Canyon, South Dakota, for a Black Hills Indians charity ride with Kevin Costner. Yet another time she rode her BMW R1200C motorcycle cross country from Palm Beach, Florida to Sturgis, Wyoming, Montana and back to "show men how to weather a mid-life crisis!"
