Melinda Hardin is more than just a Realtor—she’s a visionary, a creator, and a connector with a deep passion for preserving the heart of Shelby County while helping shape its future.

Beyond real estate, Melinda is a writer, entrepreneur, and Airbnb investor, managing three boutique lofts on Main Street. She contributes to a local magazine, is working on her first book, and holds degrees in English (University of Kentucky) and Holistic Wellness, along with several nutrition and fitness certifications.

💡 Her Approach to Real Estate
“I bring energy and diligence to everything I do. Real estate isn’t just about transactions—it’s about relationships, trust, and the excitement of finding the right home. I want to lock arms with my clients and make this process as seamless and rewarding as possible.”
