Here are just a few things that our clients have said about Red Hills Agents:
"Trying to sell our home and being out of town over 600 miles away, a 10 to 11 hour one way trip and having health issues makes for a very stressful process. But with Melvin and Jill Upchurch's assistance, they put our worries and frets at ease. They did everything and more. They made a very stressful process go quickly and smooth.
We were most blessed to have met Melvin & Jill and we think they are the best both professionally and personally. After placing a telephone call to Red Hills Realty Saturday Jan. 10th, I received a return phone call from Melvin within twenty minutes was most impressed. I immediately picked up on his charisma and professionalism. We were impressed with his vast knowledge and insight in the Real Estate business. He took time to explain how the current economic recession was affecting the Real Estate Market but yet he was not gloomy or negative. He was most positive and very enthusiastic that he could sell our home, giving us hope for a quick sale. Melvin immediately had an aggressive marketing plan for selling our home, and we were real pleased with his attitude.
We listed our home with Melvin & Jill Jan. 13th, via fax and email and they had a contract on our home Jan. 15th, and the closing took place Feb. 27th with us being out of town. Melvin and Jill stayed in touch with us via phone, email and faxes. They kept us up to date just about every day. They went far above and beyond the call of duty of what one would expect. They were always right on top of everything, offering wise advise, even handling things that we should have done if we were in town. (saving us trips home) We knew we were in good hands and put our trust in Melvin & Jill - as they had never let us down and everything they seemed to tell us came to be.
We knew from the first telephone conversation with Melvin, we had made the right decision in listing our home with Melvin & Jill. And we are glad we listened to them and took their advice.
We would highly recommend to any and everyone having a house for sale to list it with Red Hill Realty via Melvin and Jill Upchurch. We were most impressed with their professional hands on approach, their wisdom and knowledge of the Real Estate Business and the contacts they have in the business. They know
Real Estate! They are the best bar none and we are most grateful for all they did for us.
If we ever decide to relocate back to Alabama, Melvin and Jill will be the first and only Realtor we call on." Gregg & Brenda E.
“Melvin & Jill’s knowledge of real estate was obvious in every step of the home-buying process. They not only know real estate, but they also know how to do business in a tenacious, tactful, and respectful manner. They helped me understand the details along the way, down to the smallest of concepts. They acted as if I were their only priority in the whole world and were available as often as I needed them. They answered my questions patiently and explained situations clearly when I needed help understanding. There was never a time when they were too busy to meet me, take my phone calls, or respond to my many emails. Their responses were immediate, thorough, and well researched.
I would highly recommend Melvin & Jill Upchurch. They possess excellent business and people skills and are efficient and thorough in everything they do. They take a complicated process and make it simple enough for even the greenest. Plus, they are fun to be around, which made an otherwise stressful process into a very positive experience! I would definitely use Melvin & Jill in the future because they have proven to be experts in every aspect of the real estate field. They are obviously well respected in the real estate business, and I trust them completely to conduct business in a way that looks out for my best interest as their client. They get the job done and do it well. I have total confidence in Melvin & Jill and would not hesitate to use them in the future.” E. Fox
"I am so happy to have found my realtor, Judy Theriot, of Red Hills Realty. With her help, I was able to purchase the "perfect home" from 1,100 miles away. Her exceptional service made my transition from Massachusetts to Alabama a smooth and stress-free one. Judy and the staff of Red Hills Realty definitely went above and beyond my expectations. I would highly recommend Red Hills Realty to anyone looking for a realtor in the Birmingham area." Nora F.
"I have a beautiful condo in Homewood thanks to the patience and hard work of Melvin Upchurch and Red Hills Realty. I was able to continue to work at my job, while Melvin did all of the paper work and trouble shoooting for me. I was never confused by what was happening or what I was signing. The closing was delightful and fast. This can be one of the most complicated issues in one's life, and it was made simple by a very good realty company. I recommend Red Hills to all of my friends. Thank you all!" Jacque M.
Melvin & Jill listed our property and had it under contract in one day. They also had a full price backup offer in one week. So what you may ask? They did this after our previous realtor had it on the market for over 6 months, including the summer months, when activity is greater. Their marketing strategy is aggressive and obviously effective. They are confident and knowledgeable. I will never buy or sell another home without their representation. KB
"Melvin & Jill Upchurch of Red Hills Realty were very helpful to us; they were extremely patient when showing us different houses. At one point, Melvin said that if they had to show us 100 houses in order to find one that we like, they would do it, and I believe him! There was never any pressure at all, no rushing to get to the next house or speeding us through each house. My wife and I had a very nice house buying experience with Red Hills Realty." Travis and Jennifer R.
"From the first time my wife and I met Donna Montgomery, we knew she was much more that just another real estate agent. After our initial meeting, we realized that she was an individual who was genuinely interested in our desire to purchase our home, and consistently did everything in her power to make purchasing as simple as possible. In fact, other agents find you an affordable place to live with little or no regard to the area you would like to live, style of home you want, or adhere to one's overall specification. Donna went the extra mile and presented us with properties that I know she thought we could truly call 'HOME.' This was the passion she expressed and that is exactly what she found for us... it was HOME." Mark M.
Donna was highly recommended by one of my work associates. I had a lot of questions about buying a home, and Donna was great at answering all of them, and making me feel comfortable about the entire process. She is knowledgeable, friendly, and fun to work with. I would definitely recommend Donna to family and friends because I know they would get the same professional, caring treatment I received!" Stacy
"No matter if you are buying or selling a hundred dollar house or a million dollar house, the keen attention to detail and personal attention is there, nothing is over looked. Amy Maziarz took all of the guesswork out of selling my home, and made the buying process so much easier!" Jennifer P.
"In helping my wife and myself to purchase our first home, Melvin was not content to do simply what he had to do - he always went the extra mile in helping us to get our affairs in order and to keep them that way. At our closing, all those who met in the attorneys' office - ourselves, the seller, the mortgage advisor, and the other realtor - all agreed that in some way Melvin had helped them to do their part better. I could not recommend any professional more highly than Melvin Upchurch." Daniel M.
"Melvin and I had one of the smoothest transactions I have experienced! He was on top of everything for his buyer. He treated them like family.
I would recommend him to any buyer or seller! He was very professional, caring and a joy to work with. He was also very knowledgable. He taught me about a product in the mortgage/real estate market that I was not familiar with. I have since then been able to explain it to several of my clients.
I look forward to having more transactions in the future with him!" Realtor from another Birmingham Real Estate Agency
"Melvin did a great job for me as a real estate agent/broker. He followed up on all leads and kept me informed of the progress. He represented me in a very professional manner. I would certainly use Melvin's services again and recommend him to anyone selling or buying a property in the Birmingham area." Richard M.
Amy was extremely sensitive to our needs and did not pressure us to do anything we felt uncomfortable with. She was always available to show us any house and extremely patient with our own personal situation. I would recommend Amy to any friend I new looking for a home. She was informative, insightful, and knowledgeable about each property we viewed. I would use Amy in the future because my husband and I trust her and worked well with her to meet our goal of purchasing a home.
William & Lorita F.
Amy was very knowledgeable. Good tips on how to organize and decorate the house for “showing”, creative ideas to get potential buyers in the house in a down market, and also excellent negotiating skills in the home purchase process.
When I asked Amy to have some open houses at our home, she responded quickly to schedule them. She always followed up with a potential buyer’s agent for feedback on each showing, and kept me informed of all communications. Amy was also very accommodating when showing us houses to purchase as well.
I would recommend Amy to friends because we had a first-class experience in the both the sale and purchase of our homes with a down market working against us.

"Melvin Upchurch is a true professional in every sense of the word. Over the years, I have been fortunate enough to work with Melvin on many matters involving title to real property. I am consistently impressed with his ability to not only identify potential title issues for his buyers/sellers, but also his ability to solve problems and resolve matters in an extremely efficient and timely manner. Melvin's attitude is second to none - he is always such a pleasure to work with, no matter what the circumstances!
I would definitely recommend Melvin to anyone seeking a conscientious, capable and highly motivated real estate professional - he's as good as it gets." Amy N.
Amy Maziarz guided me through the entire purchasing process. She was able to answer all my questions. She was also very knowledgeable about the market conditions in Homewood. Amy helped to make the negotiations and closing a very easy process for me. Amy responded to my every request almost immediately. I was on a tight timeline and Amy didn’t blink when I wanted to look at 10 houses in 2 days! She took the time to talk to me about all the pros and cons of each house. She called almost every day to check on me during the process. Amy is very thorough and attentive. She is also a very nice and compassionate person, which makes a stressful process much easier to handle. I would not hesitate to recommend her to my closest friends and family. Amy wants her clients to be happy and does whatever it takes to make it happen. I trust that Amy is always looking out for my best interest. I will not hesitate to call her the next time I need a real estate agent! Jennifer W.
I had previously tried to purchase through larger realtors. As a first time buyer and with a lower price range, I was treated like dirt. When I first approached Jill Upchurch about buying, she let me know immediately that my business would be valuable. She showed me numerous properties, via email, in my price range and worked with me to refine the search process to find just the right areas and properties. Donna Montgomery started showing me properties, she showed the enthusiasm and professionalism I needed to believe my dream could become a reality. Donna found my home and walked me through every step in the purchase process. She treated my wants like needs and my needs like givens. I have already given referrals to friends and even to my brother. LeeAnne M.
Judy Theriot was very knowledgeable in the areas of town in which we were interested, and showed us a wide variety of properties. She was available whenever we needed her. She also showed us the kind of houses we were really interested in, and not just any house. I would recommend Judy to a friend because she was very helpful in the whole process. Judy was amazing—I would definitely use her in the future!! Judy really wanted what was best for us. She guided us and held our hands through the entire process. Words can’t express how happy we are with our new home! Natalie and Ben
