Consistently goes above & beyond with A++ service

I have known Matt O'Brien for the past 7 years and have found him to be an honest top notch realtor who not only cares about his clients but consistently goes above & beyond with A++ service. Matt is polite, efficient, and knowledgeable in all things real estate. Matt and his team transformed my property into a showplace which resulted in a whopping 85 showings and 29 offers in 2 days. I was completely overwhelmed ! Thank you so much ! !

More like a partnership rather than just being another client.

Matt is an amazing realtor who partners with you in finding the right home. I was a first-time home buyer and he was incredibly patient in answering all my questions, addressing concerns, and highlighting problem areas I didn’t even consider. My house hunt felt more like a partnership rather than just being another client, never feeling pressured to move forward on a home that wasn’t what I wanted. Matt’s vast amounts of knowledge, professionalism, and genuine passion for house hunting removed a lot the stress of buying a new house and got me the perfect home. I highly recommend Matt for any of your real-estate needs.

he made us feel like the most important people and still does to this day

We’ve had Matt help us find two homes and sell one over the past 13 years. I have honestly never met anyone with his patience, enthusiasm, and knowledge. We had to visit over 100 properties to find our first home as we are very particular. Matt never once gave up nor let us give up. The end result was our first home and it met every crazy request we had given Matt. Fast forward 7 years and Matt helped us sell our first home for above list, all cash and 17 day close in 3 days (1 open house). So naturally when we moved back to the area with a larger family we sought Matt’s help. We ended up finding our current home for well below asking price and have loved watching our children grow up in our current home. He always maintains contact even when we may not. Whether it be through emails, phone calls, St Patricks Day cards or meeting you for our favorite pizza, Matt is always there for our family. I highly recommend him. We are not easy clients nor cash cows, yet he made us feel like the most important people and still does to this day.

Matt guides you through the process and steers you clear of trouble.

Matt guides you through the process and steers you clear of trouble.

Matt is more of a Sherpa than a Real Estate agent. He guides you through the process and steers you clear of trouble. He brings up things you wouldn't even think of and is incredibly patient! Answering questions was helpful, but also he was incredibly knowledgable about all kinds of related topics to buying a house - from use of space and design, to HOA's, taxes, inspections and disclosures and everything you need to know to get to a successful closing. I've bought property in other areas, but California is different and Matt skillfully manages the quote process which is helpful to ensure you actually get to an accepted offer. And he remembers what features are important to you, no matter how many properties you've seen. What a great guide and partner for the process! I'm happily enjoying my new home and wishing the best to those seeking to make a purchase.

And he remembers what features are important to you, no matter how many properties you've seen. He's incredibly responsive and helpful. Not only did he keep me on top of all the paperwork that's needed, he responded to texts immediately and almost always picked up my calls right away. One thing once you land an offer, you have to meet deadlines or you could lose out, for example losing a rate lock or not realizing the inspection contingency is about to expire and you still have questions. Matt makes sure you don't fall into any of those pitfalls by staying in contact with you so you can focus on the most important things, one at a time. In this state, it's a cumbersome process and having Matt's help was a blessing. What a great guide and partner for the process! I'm happily enjoying my new home and wishing the best to those seeking to make a purchase.

Fantastic partner when buying or selling a home.

Matt is a fantastic partner when buying or selling a home. We recently purchased a home in San Diego and I was very nervous about the whole transaction because of a past real estate disaster I experienced. He was knowledgeable, professional, incredibly patient and answered all of our questions in a timely fashion. He treated us as if we were his only clients! I definitely recommend Matt O'Brien for your real estate needs.

Matt provided the best first-time home buying experience I could imagine. I was walked through the whole process step-by-step and had all of my ridiculous questions answered as soon as they popped into my head. He has my full confidence and recommendations for anyone looking to buy a home in the San Diego County area. I look forward to doing business with him in the future, should I choose to purchase another property!

Matt represented my wife and me in the selling of a condo in Friars Village. He helped us to get the unit into sell condition and staged the unit during the sale process. We received multiple offers and were very happy with the end result. Matt was always there to help us and made the overall process easy to go through. I highly recommend Matt.

Matt O'Brien was everything we were looking for in a realtor: honest, responsive, kind, knowledgeable, connected, funny, and great with other agents. At every step he had an idea, connection, or suggestion. We had so much fun exploring creative renovation ideas with him as we walked through homes. Matt's support ensured that we never felt like we were doing it alone. Matt was a true partner in our home-buying process. With his help, and fantastic sense of humor, we were able to breeze through. We will be coming back to him for all of our real estate buying and selling. You'd be lucky to work with him!
