Merissa Alexander, a 35-year-old single African American mother of three, luxury real estate professional, and one of Chicago’s rising industry powerhouses, is raising the bar once again. Born and raised on the Eastside of Chicago to Jamaican immigrant parents, she has built an impressive 7-year career with more than $10 million in closed real estate de als—and now she is launching a new VIP Luxury Car Service that is transforming her clients' experience across the city.
The service is an exclusive white-glove transportation experience for all clients—no matter their budget or background. At the core of Merissa’s new VIP Experience Initiative is a premium black car service designed to eliminate stress, increase convenience, and elevate the home-buying and selling journey. Clients can now be picked up and chauffeured to showings, closings, and appointments in a professional luxury vehicle—never worrying about traffic, parking, or logistics.
“Every client is a VIP — not just the top-tier or luxury clients,” said Alexander. “Whether you're buying your first condo or selling a multimillion-dollar estate, you deserve to feel important, comfortable, and truly taken care of.”
From the moment clients book an appointment, Merissa ensures the experience reflects her personal motto: “Treat every client like the kings and queens they are.”
Unlike typical “VIP programs” reserved only for high-net-worth buyers, her initiative was intentionally designed for all types of clients, including first-time homebuyers, sellers at any price point, investors, relocating families, as well as returning and referral clients.
This inclusive approach reflects her deep appreciation for the people who helped build her career—clients she says she will “never stop pouring back into.”
Before joining Coldwell Realty, Merissa earned major accolades at Berkshire Hathaway as Top Earner of the Year, and she continues to be known throughout Chicago for her knowledge of the market, powerful negotiation skills, and warm personal touch. Her journey from a young Eastside mom with big dreams to becoming one of Chicago’s most respected agents serves as a powerful example of resilience and excellence.
She credits her achievements not only to hard work but also to her community, her parents’ Jamaican work ethic, and her three children, who inspire her daily.
