Melanie Dodge Email and Phone Number

I am a small town girl who grew up in the snowy ski town of Telluride, Colorado. While it was amazing, It was my personal goal to never live near, around, or in the snow ever again. I have lived in some amazing places including Santa Barbara, Scottsdale, and Playa del Carmen , Mexico. I am extremely passionate about traveling, wine and beer, food, running and the beach. We ended up in Sarasota, FL where we have opened our dream bar in Siesta Key. I found myself working in the Escrow/Title Industry in Scottsdale, AZ right after graduating UC Santa Barbara, in California. I was a Senior Escrow Officer with Old Republic Title for 11 years and I loved being the final piece of the puzzle for buyers and sellers. Seeing the excitement on their faces when they signed their loan documents was priceless and such a good feeling knowing that I helped make their dreams come true.My path took a dramatic change as my boyfriend and I decided we wanted to travel more and relocate abroad. We sold everything, packed up our cars and two dogs , waved goodbye to our family and friends and headed to Playa del Carmen, Mexico. We lived in Playa for 2 1/2 years and sold real estate with an international firm. I absolutely love being a Realtor and I’m constantly thrilled with the opportunity to help others through the home buying process. I find it challenging and rewarding to be entrusted with this task, and I am grateful for the opportunity.In 2018 we returned to the states where we landed in the beautiful, quaint city of Sarasota and we are thrilled to be back. If you are looking for a professional to be by your side who is trustworthy and knowledgeable please get in touch with me. My direct number is 805-451-2131.I look forward to hearing from you.
