Why Work With Melinda Walencewicz?
I'm Melinda Walencewicz, a REALTOR® with eXp Realty serving Connecticut and Polk County, Florida. As a U.S. Navy Veteran, Probate Specialist, and AI-Certified Real Estate Agent, I bring a calm, organized, and strategic approach to every move. I have worked with residential buyers, sellers, and investors since 2006.
I am licensed in two states, Connecticut and Florida, and I serve four Connecticut counties: Tolland, Windham, Hartford, and New London. In Polk County, Florida, my primary service area includes Lakeland, Winter Haven, Auburndale, and Haines City. You can search available properties through two dedicated home-search pages, one for Connecticut and one for Florida.
Whether you're buying your first home, downsizing after many years, managing an inherited property, or relocating between states, you don't have to figure it out alone.
My goal is to give every buyer and seller a clear plan, honest guidance, and the time they need to make a confident real estate decision.
