Why we feature Melissa Allman for East Sacramento
East Sacramento runs east from Business 80 to the Union Pacific levee, with Highway 50 on the south side, according to the boundaries the East Sacramento Community Association files with the city. Most of it falls in ZIP codes 95819 and 95816. Zillow's typical home value for the neighborhood was $770,878 in September 2026, up 3.5% in a year, against $470,552 for the city as a whole. Much of that premium sits in early 20th century houses on tree-lined grid streets around McKinley Park and in the larger lots of the Fabulous Forties, where condition and original detail move the price as much as square footage.
Melissa Allman has sold homes in Sacramento since 2003 and names East Sacramento and Land Park as her two core markets. Her website's East Sacramento guide covers the 95816 and 95819 ZIP codes, the J Street and Folsom Boulevard corridors and McKinley Park, and her profile lists the Certified Probate & Trust Specialist designation, relevant to probate and trust sales, a common route by which long-held East Sacramento houses come to market. That focus is why we chose her for this page. It is a recommendation, not a ranking, so interview other agents who sell here as well.
Melissa Allman's license, brokerage and designations
DRE license 01397300
The California Department of Real Estate's public lookup lists Melissa Marie Allman as a licensed salesperson, license 01397300, first issued August 21, 2003 and valid to August 23, 2029. The record shows no disciplinary action and no other public comments. Her website shows the same number.
Her current brokerage: Tenth Hall, Inc. (GUIDE Real Estate)
On the DRE record her responsible broker is Tenth Hall, Inc., corporation license 01976964, at 1610 R Street in Sacramento. Her website footer lists that same license number under the name GUIDE Real Estate. The DRE shows two earlier brokers: Mega Bliss Real Estate Inc, her own company, from March 2018 to August 2024, and California Real Estate Corporation from August 2024 to July 30, 2026. A press release on her site still names Re/Max Dream Homes, so confirm the brokerage on your listing or buyer agreement.
MegaBliss Real Estate and her designations
She is the founder of MegaBliss Real Estate, based at 730 I Street, Suite 200, in downtown Sacramento. Her profile lists the Pricing Strategy Advisor, Military Relocation Professional, Accredited Staging Professional and Certified Probate & Trust Specialist designations. Her press page lists an Expertise.com award (December 2024), Sacramento Bee "Sacramento Favorites" nominations for MegaBliss in 2023 and 2024, and a Sacramento Magazine "Women Who Move Sacramento" feature (December 2022).
Her sales record and what clients say
On her own site she reports more than 158 career transactions and over $79 million in sales, with 21 transaction sides and over $12 million in volume in the most recent 12 months. She also reports a Sac Real Producers Top 500 listing for 2025 and 2026 and the Best of Zillow designation from 2019 to 2026. These figures are self-reported and we have not checked them against MLS records.
Her portfolio page shows recent sales close to East Sacramento, including a pending listing at 4889 V Street in 95817 at $1,145,000, just south of Highway 50 in Elmhurst. Ask her for a list of her closed East Sacramento sales with dates, since the portfolio does not show them.
Two testimonials published on her website, quoted in full:
"Melissa is wonderful to work with. She is thoughtful and caring, and always kept me up to date on progress. I liked her so much I used her to purchase a home and again years later to sell! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for great service with a personal touch." (Jessica S.)
"I worked with Melissa to purchase my home in Sacramento and she was always very responsive and committed to getting me what I was looking for. I never felt rushed and felt like her team listened to what I indicated my priorities were. It was a good experience and I would recommend her and her team for other future home buyers!" (Liz G.)
What to ask Melissa Allman about an East Sacramento home
Selling an older East Sacramento house
Many homes here were built before 1950 (the Census median year built in 95819 is 1950). Ask which repairs she would make before listing and which she would disclose and price in: sewer laterals, knob-and-tube wiring, foundations and original windows are the usual questions. If you inherited the house, ask how she runs a probate or trust sale and how long court confirmation is adding in Sacramento County right now. Ask her to price the home against sales in the same ZIP, because 95819 and 95816 behave differently.
Buying in a quick East Sacramento market
Houses in 95819 sold in a median of 12 days in the three months to September 2026, at an average of 100.9% of list price, with 46% of single-family homes selling above asking, according to Redfin. Ask how she sets an offer price, which inspections she would order before offering, and whether the home is a city landmark or eligible for a Mills Act contract, which the city's Mills Act page explains (applications are due July 1).
Commission and buyer agreements
Since 2024, buyers sign a written agreement with their agent before touring, and the fee is negotiable. Ask her to explain her fee and what it covers in writing. Our California commission guide covers the rules.
East Sacramento market figures
| Measure | Figure | Source and period |
|---|---|---|
| East Sacramento typical home value | $770,878 (up 3.5%) | Zillow, September 2026 |
| 95819 typical home value | $740,399 (up 2.9%) | Zillow, September 2026 |
| 95819 median sale price, single-family | $812,795 | Redfin, three months to Sept. 30, 2026 |
| 95819 homes sold | 61 | Redfin, same period |
| 95816 median sale price, single-family | $692,325 | Redfin, same period |
| 95816 median days on market, all homes | 16 | Redfin, same period |
The two ZIPs differ. Census figures for 2020-2024 put owner-occupied homes at about 71% of occupied units in 95819 and 29% in 95816, which takes in more of the apartments and older flats near Midtown. Redfin's 95816 single-family median fell 15.6% from a year earlier on 29 sales, so a handful of sales can move it. See the East Sacramento neighborhood guide, the 95819 data page and the 95816 data page.
