About Melvin Upchurch

Hi, I’m Melvin Upchurch!! I am a U.S. Air Force Veteran that used my GI Bill benefits to pay my way through college ( Millsaps – Jackson, MS). I began my career as a CPA with KPMG & worked my way up the corporate ladder to become the CFO of a local bank and the President of a regional mortgage company. I left the corporate world to pursue my passion for real estate in 1997. My real estate career has included being a Realtor since 1998, acquiring a home builder’s license, building custom homes, flipping hundreds of homes, creating a large residential real estate rental portfolio which I managed for over 20 years, and assisting hundreds of buyers and sellers in buying and selling homes. I am originally from Mississippi, but I have lived in the Birmingham area for over 30 years. I have 2 adult children, Ali & Zac, and a grandson, Fitz. My wife of 23 years, Jill, is a Pittsburgh native that played tennis for the Nebraska Cornhuskers. She came to Birmingham to be the tennis pro at The Country Club of Birmingham. We have a 15-year-old son, Bram, who is a competitive golfer. Our lives revolve around our Church and Bram’s golf tournaments. Family time is our favorite time. I am a health enthusiast and a big believer in personal growth & having a growth mindset. I have over 250 verified 5-star Zillow reviews from very appreciative clients. In this tough market, I have been very successful in helping my buyers win the bidding wars! I also co-own and I am the Broker for LIST Birmingham a full service/flat fee brokerage. My average seller saved over $10,000 in commission in 2023. If you are interested in being professionally represented in the purchase of a home or, it is time to sell your home, I’d greatly appreciate the opportunity to speak with you. All the best, Melvin Upchurch

Testimonials

Melvin is a seasoned real estate professional who manages every detail for his clients. Out of necessity, we worked long distance with Melvin and the transaction was seamless. He is tops in his field.

Bill Stone

Client
Melvin was absolutely great to work with. We trusted his expertise and got 2 offers in 2 days. The process was so smooth and we loved Melvin’s flat fee approach. Would use him again - no question!

Deborah Howell

Client
Melvin recently sold my home in Homewood. I think the LIST model is a tremendous value - all the time, attention and effort of a regular agent, but at a reasonable cost. I've referred my friends and family to Melvin and (though I'm in the business and have a real estate license myself) think it is far and away the best way to sell a house in Birmingham.

Matthew Whitaker

Client
Melvin was absolutely AMAZING. If it weren’t for him, I truly don’t know if we’d have gotten the house we really wanted in our dream neighborhood (at the price we wanted). He was an excellent communicator, timely, and found us fabulous options within our budget. Can’t recommend him enough!!!

Sara Burris

Client
Working with Melvin was an incredible experience. His knowledge of the market was second-to-none and made my wife and I confident moving forward with a complicated purchase of our home. Working with Melvin was incredibly valuable and I would absolutely recommend anybody I know to work with Melvin when buying or selling their house! I can't say enough great things about the process.

Alec Hersh

Client
Our experience with LIST Birmingham was top notch from start to finish. Melvin and his team are incredibly knowledgeable about the market and kept us updated on a regular basis. We wouldn’t change a thing about our process and would use him again without hesitation!

Stacy Townsend (Stacywit

Client
Melvin runs a top notch program. Beyond the very reasonable agent's fee, they provided great advice for listing and then fantastic marketing for our house. He and his team were very communicative, even late hours and weekends! Do yourself a favor, and go with LIST Birmingham!

Kathy Henderson

Client
Melvin and the realtors who work with him have been nothing short of amazing. We moved to Birmingham from across the country and were pretty stressed about the move. We knew nothing about the area. Melvin made us feel like he genuinely had our best interest in mind from the start of the home buying process through closing and beyond. He demystified all the confusing parts of the process through incredibly helpful personalized videos. We felt taken care of and important to him and ended up with a home we love. I'd recommend Melvin wholeheartedly.

Sidney Hoyle

Client
From the first moment we contacted Melvin, we were very impressed with his organization and knowledge of the Birmingham/Hoover market. We made numerous visits over the year to look at homes & Melvin was always able to accommodate us. When it was time to make an offer, his in-depth analysis of the market & the home proved a huge asset for not overpaying or under bidding. Therefore our negotiations went smoothly & we will shortly be moving into our new home. He walked us through every aspect, even though this is definitely not our first home purchase. We would highly recommend Melvin Upchurch for any real estate needs.

Catherine Dorosh

Client
Melvin was an absolute blessing to work with as first time home buyers. He genuinely cared about us and what home would be best for our family. We toured maybe 15 homes over the year and some Melvin flat out said “I can’t let you buy this home.” He is a wealth of knowledge on the neighborhoods of Birmingham and was super helpful in helping us find our home. He negotiated the heck out of our contract and not many agents would have done that! I can’t say enough great things and we will definitely be working with him in the future.
