Meet The Team
Senior professionals. No hand-offs. No junior agents. Just results.
The Excel Executive Listing Team
Every client at Excel Real Estate Experts works directly with a senior agent from the first conversation through closing. The agent you meet is the agent who sells your home.
Melissa Samsell
Melissa is the heart of the Excel Real Estate Experts listing operation. With over 23 years of experience in the Maple Valley market, she has personally guided hundreds of families through the selling process — from the initial pricing strategy to the final walk-through at closing.
She is the single point of contact for every seller she represents — the person who answers your calls, attends your showings, negotiates your offers, and stands next to you at the closing table. No assistants. No hand-offs.
Jeremy Mellick
A Maple Valley native and Tahoma High School graduate, Jeremy founded Excel Real Estate Experts over 23 years ago. His goal was simple: build a team that delivers measurable results, not just promises.
That commitment has produced a track record that speaks for itself: Excel’s clients sell for an average of 4.2% more than the market average and close 46 days faster — the result of a disciplined, data-driven approach to pricing, preparation, and marketing.
Buyer Representative Team
Dedicated to guiding buyers through the Maple Valley and South King County markets — from the first property tour to the closing table.
April Fleming
April works closely with buyers to understand their priorities, search the market strategically, and craft winning offers in competitive situations. Her focus is making the buying process clear, organized, and actually enjoyable from the first showing to keys in hand.
Matthew Gerken
Matthew guides buyers through every step of the purchase — from initial consultation to closing day. His clients rely on him for sharp market insight, steady negotiation, and honest guidance in a fast-moving Maple Valley market.
Support Team
The people behind the scenes who keep every transaction on track — so your agent can stay focused on selling your home.
Rylee Amann
Rylee manages every contract-to-close detail — tracking deadlines, documents, and disclosures from the moment an offer is accepted through closing day, so nothing falls through the cracks.
Angelina Downey
Angelina prepares every Excel listing for market — coordinating photography, staging, MLS entry, and the marketing rollout so your home launches flawlessly on day one.
