Matt somehow made what we expected to be a stressful, anxiety-filled first home buying experience (in a very hot real estate market, in the middle of a pandemic) as straightforward and smooth as these circumstances could possibly afford. We knew Matt from church, and my husband and I ultimately chose to work with him after interviewing two agents. While the other agent was also great, we appreciated Matt's organization, attention to detail, knowledge of the areas we were looking at, and the research and experience he brought to the process.
Matt helped us create a process of looking at homes that worked for us and quickly set up a "practice run" house tour for us to get a sense of what to look for and what questions we'd want to ask. Before we went touring, he walked us through the buying process without being too overwhelming, but still very thorough. Long story short, after touring several homes, we ended up putting an offer on the first home we toured that day! Though we weren't planning to seriously look for a few more months, Matt worked quickly to help us come up with a competitive offer and we closed on the home shortly after. We appreciated that Matt took the time to discuss strategy and explain the advice he shared. When we wasn't available, he made sure to find someone on his team to step in for us. He always made it clear this was our decision and wanted to give us all the information and options for us to choose what was best for ourselves.
What made working with Matt even more special were the many touch points and support he offered, from the beginning of the process to a few weeks after we moved in. We also loved supporting Choose 180 and their work through our home purchase. We highly, highly recommend partnering with Matt for anyone looking for a home, especially first-time home buyers!
