Let's find your dream home

"We hired Melissa as our selling agent for a last-minute out-of-state move, and we were nowhere near ready to put our house on the market. Our home, post-pandemic, was in no shape for showings. Melissa came in, assessed the situation, and provided a detailed list of changes and fixes to make our home more appealing to buyers. Somehow, we managed to complete them all, and three weeks later, our house was ready to list.

Throughout the process, Melissa answered countless questions and went above and beyond—literally. The night before our listing photos, she even helped me carry a couch (that our dog had destroyed!) to the car to take to the dump! At that point I started calling her by her true name “Melissa above-and-beyond-Cowper-Smith”

Melissa truly knows her stuff. We were nervous about selling quickly, especially since we were rural and didn’t want to be stuck with two mortgages. But we trusted her expertise, followed her guidance, and had multiple offers above asking within 24 hours of listing. We closed in under 30 days. She helped us price our home perfectly to generate immediate interest and attract serious, high-quality offers.

Selling a home is stressful and full of unexpected drama, but Melissa provided invaluable resources and even emotional support along the way. If you’re selling in Arkansas—especially a rural property—I can’t recommend a better Realtor than Melissa."

"I just bought my first home and would recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a realtor. Melissa is incredibly patient and thoughtful. She is a very thorough realtor who really cares about finding something that meets all your needs. I also really admire her commitment to building community and highlighting small businesses. She was very attentive throughout the whole process, and checked in on how I was feeling about it. I was definitely a bit nervous and she was very understanding about wanting to take my time. It’s been a month since my closing date and she still checks in and makes sure everything is going well. Can’t say enough nice things about her!!"

"We had a great experience working with Melissa, we made a 12 hr trip to see a property, although it wasn’t what we had hoped for she was so very pleasant and patient with all of our questions and concerns. She is very compassionate and truly loves her job. We look forward to working with her on our future property investment. After spending a great deal of hours with her, I found out that we both have a love for horses and trail riding. If you are looking for a property please contact Melissa as I know she will truly work hard to find your next dream home. "

"I wanted to say how amazing Melissa was in my quest to exit Florida and find a great retirement home in Arkansas. She listens and remembers everything you want and don’t want in your search. I never had to wait on a response from her as she always responds promptly and professionally. I found the perfect home and area for myself and my horse. If you are looking for the BEST realtor in central and western Arkansas, then contact Melissa! You won’t regret it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

"Melissa Cowper-Smith: The Horse Whisperer of Real Estate in Central Arkansas!

If you’ve got hooves in your future and you’re traipsing through the pastures of Central Arkansas, or you’re just looking for a forever home for your family, Melissa Cowper-Smith is the realtor you didn’t know you needed. This woman isn’t just selling properties; she’s curating personal paradises. She’s even making sure you have a new kitten for the barn that you may not even have yet!

From the get-go, Melissa understood that our four-legged family members were just as important as our two-legged ones. She listened to our needs like she was on the same wave length with Jackson, our Aussie.

Her knowledge of horse properties in Central Arkansas isn’t just comprehensive; it’s downright mystical. She knew the best spots for grazing, the barns with the most character, and even pointed out which fields had the best sunsets for my evening rides.

Melissa’s service is as smooth as a well-oiled saddle. She handled all the paperwork with the finesse of a dressage rider, making what could have been a chaotic process as tranquil as a morning trot through dew-covered fields.

And let’s talk about the properties she showed me – each one was more perfect than the last. It was like she had a direct line to my horse’s Pinterest board.

The clincher? She negotiated a deal that felt like winning the Triple Crown. I’m now the proud owner of a home that feels like it was tailor-made for us.

In the world of real estate in Central Arkansas, Melissa Cowper-Smith isn’t just leading the pack; she’s miles ahead. Whether you’re looking for a home that’s horse-approved or not, Melissa is your go-to gal."

"Melissa was a great realtor for us! We had never been to the Little Rock area before and she was able to show us housing options in multiple different neighborhoods around the city. I think the best part for me is that Melissa also is a horse person so she was able to suggest horse properties for us to look at and also point out potential boarding options for my horse."

"I would like to give a shout out to Melissa, she was amazing to my wife and I. We came through to learn about the area and general horse keeping in this region.
Melissa went above and beyond. She showed us a couple of houses so we had an idea of the real-estate in the area. (Zillow does not do these properties justice.)

She also put us in contact with 3 different barn owners and boarding facilities where they were so incredibly generous with their time to answer all of our numerous questions.

She knew going into this that this was a scouting mission for us, and she was absolutely incredible. She showed us around, networked for us, and afforded us an amazing opportunity to learn about the equine network in Arkansas from vets, farriers, and boarding facilities.
Everyone was extremely friendly and welcoming.

Overall I felt if you buy a home with her, the help she gives you won’t stop at the sale of the house.
I shared with her that a big concern for us is leaving the network we have. (This would be a major cross country move for us.) She said,"You show up, we will be the network.”
I believe her 100%.
I cannot recommend her enough.
Thank you for everything Melissa!! You gave us your most valuable asset, your time, and you gave it freely."

"Melissa Cowper-Smith is a smart, clear minded person whose assessment of situations and places can be trusted. She speaks honestly and forthrightly which is such a valuable asset to those who are choosing her help when buying a home."

"I am so excited that I have chose Melissa as my Realtor! She has taken time to listen to my wants & needs. She has sent me listings that fit exactly what we have discussed. She has been super patient with me through this process. She is knowledgeable with ‘horse properties’ and understands what I am needing for my horse. I look forward to continuing this search with her and have every confidence in her that she will find me the perfect property for me and my horse!"
