STR Investment Specialist
Melissa Young
About Melissa Young
Melissa Young is a St. Louis-based real estate professional with a mission to turn overlooked Midwest markets into high-performing short-term rental destinations. After purchasing her first vacation rental in 2022, a secluded log cabin in Missouri Cave country that quickly earned 100% 5-star reviews, she was hooked. That success led her to launch a co-hosting and consulting business, where she now helps other investors achieve the same level of excellence. Melissa specializes in guiding buyers through every step of the STR process, from identifying the right market and property to optimizing the listing for maximum revenue. With a 22 year background in sales and marketing, she brings a unique edge to marketing, design, and brand visibility. Her client-first mindset, operational systems, and eye for detail make her a trusted partner for both new and seasoned investors. Now a proud member of the Savvy STR team, Melissa is focused on helping investors capitalize on the momentum building in the St. Louis market and surrounding areas - markets she believes are on the edge of explosive growth. When she’s not analyzing deals or helping clients launch standout listings, you’ll find her knee-deep in DIY renovation projects or hiking with family and friends.
