Prime Real Estate Group prides itself on staying a cut above the rest in your local choices for real estate brokerages. Owner and top-producing agent, Melissa Murphy, began in the industry over a decade ago. “I felt the old-fashioned, antiquated way of business-as-usual as a barrier to growth. I felt resistance for new ideas, limitations for creativity, expansion, and evolution with the market as it changes so very rapidly,” says the Designated Broker.

Murphy built an environment focused on the exceptional client experience, industry innovation and a support staff to keep us as agents doing what we are best. Since then, Prime Real Estate has skyrocketed to the top of the local real estate market. Prime is the #4 Independent brokerage in Spokane. With offices in Spokane and Coeur d’Alene, a growing property-management division and a growing clientele of loyal clients, Prime is positioned as a leader in Spokane and North Idaho.

Prime prides itself on being students of the market and utilizing the information to be the best stewards of our clients needs. We research market data to ensure skillful negotiations and give our clients the leg-up on their real estate transactions. At Prime, we understand that the client’s needs come first. Every transaction and every sale is different, so there is no “one size fits all” client or broker. The approach of superior service, informed by statistical data, sets us apart from other real estate brokerages in our market.

A Spokane native, Melissa Murphy graduated from Gonzaga University with a bachelor’s degree in political science and received her Master in Business Administration in 2012. During her tenure as a top agent, Melissa has listed and sold hundreds of properties throughout Spokane and North Idaho. She has been a predominant player in the world of real estate by evolving as the market has. She has maintained a consistent reputation for high customer service and client success. Most recently, Melissa received a nod from Catalyst magazine for Business Woman of the Year.
