I’m Melissa Tierney, REALTOR® and KW Real Estate Planner™, serving Santa Barbara, and the Central Coast with a strategic, client-focused approach to real estate.

Whether you're buying, selling, investing, planning a 1031 exchange, or preparing for your next chapter, I provide the market expertise, guidance, and personalized service needed to help you make confident real estate decisions.

My background in strategic planning, data-driven market analysis, and modern digital marketing allows me to position every property for maximum exposure while helping clients navigate today's ever-changing market with clarity and confidence.

In addition to traditional residential real estate, I specialize in trust sales, probate properties, downsizing, and major life transitions. I work closely with families, trustees, fiduciaries, attorneys, and financial professionals to create thoughtful strategies that align with both immediate needs and long-term goals.

Through educational workshops, market reports, and a trusted network of local professionals, I help clients understand their options, avoid costly mistakes, and move forward with a clear plan.

Real estate is more than a transaction—it's often one of the most significant financial and personal decisions you'll make. My role is to provide expert guidance, strong advocacy, and a seamless experience from our first conversation through closing and beyond.

If you're considering buying, selling, investing, or simply want to understand your options in today's market, I'd be happy to help. Let's start with a conversation.
