FEEDBACK
JOE HENRY, REALTOR
I would like to take a moment to commend Melissa for her exceptional assistance during two recent transactions. Her extensive knowledge and expertise proved invaluable, particularly in navigating the complexities of these challenging sales. Additionally, her connection with a proficient loan officer facilitated a smooth closing process, which was no small feat given the circumstances. I cannot express enough how grateful I am for her dedication and support throughout these transactions. Melissa truly exemplifies professionalism in the real estate industry.
Melissa Vine has always had a passion for business, having been involved in start-ups, acquisitions, and real estate development. She also led a nonprofit that provided recovery housing for women rising out of homelessness. She is both a licensed mental health counselor and a licensed attorney and has integrated her skill sets of business, psychology, and law to launch The Capital Vine.
Her mission remains the same: to increase access to resources for all.
Along this journey, she is grateful to have been named the Nexstar Media/WHO-13 2022 Remarkable Woman of the Year, a 2021 member of the Business Record's Forty Under 40, the 2018 recipient of One to Watch, and the 2014 recipient of Service Business of the Year. She has spoken for the FDIC, Business Record, Arts Midwest, Iowa Finance Authority, Small Business Summit, and University of Kansas Medical School and has authored an article published by the American Bar Association.
She works internationally while living in the Midwest; her four (almost) grown sons attend San Diego State, Iowa State, and Central Academy.
​
She is honored to come alongside you to bring your dreams to fruition!
