Matt is exactly the type of person you want helping you with a such a major decision like buying a home. There are so many brokers in Seattle. My husband and I were new to the city and weren't sure who to pick. I must have reached out to 8 different ones. Matt came highly recommend by a coworker and now that we're on the other side of the process with our new home, I have recommended him to ALL of my friends looking for houses. I can't recommend him highly enough. I reached out to Matt pretty stressed out and overwhelmed by the whole house-buying process, not knowing what to expect. I could tell Matt was used to handling all sorts of situations and clients. He patiently educated both my husband and myself on the entire process in a way that was reassuring and comforting to us as first time buyers. Other things we loved about working with Matt: -Matt is so flexible and accommodating. My husband and I have crazy work schedules, and with how quickly the market moves in Seattle, seeing houses ASAP can make a difference. There were several times I saw a house go up for sale and Matt would make sure he was available to show it to us THAT DAY, sometimes within a few hours. -He made us feel like we had his undivided attention and that we were super important to him, even though he is in high demand and we didn't necessarily have the highest budget in town. We always felt like his most important clients - so important when you are making a big purchase! -He was honest with us, and would tell us when he saw issues with a house or didn't think it was the right fit. This meant a lot to us being new to the whole process. -He's organized and thorough. We never had to worry about meeting deadlines or having forms in on time. Matt was on top of it, and made sure all details of the process were clicking along smoothly. -He's a genuinely kind and caring guy with principles and integrity. He does the right thing and went to bat for us. We can't thank Matt enough!

This was our first time buying a home and we wanted an agent with top-notch service to educate us and walk us through the difficult parts of the process. Matt was able to guide us on creating a competitive offer that ended up winning us the first house that we felt really good about (after seeing lots of homes on the market that we felt pretty "meh" about). Matt is kind and professional and fun to talk to & hang out with. We couldn't have asked for a better agent to work with and have already recommended him to various friends who are beginning to think about purchasing a home.

Matt is the best!! If you are thinking about buying a house or selling a house this is your guy!

Not only does Matt come with an abundance of knowledge and experience but he is also very kind and patient. Matt will listen, understand and empathize with any need you could have. He will let you chose the pace and aggression level you are comfortable with moving at, all the while educating you so you feel confident in the choices you are making. My husband and I have had the pleasure of working with Matt twice. Originally, Matt helped us sell our home. When we unexpectedly moved back to the area a year later we knew we wanted to work with him again buying our next home. If the opportunity arises where we would sell and buy again in the future we wouldn't settle for anyone other than Matthew Chapman.

Matt was super helpful in finding perfect home for our family. Matt was ready to stretch beyond his busy schedule to visit homes with us. He's an expert in looking for all details about the home and provided honest suggestions and recommendations to add to our confidence when submitting offers. We're so glad we worked with such highly empathetic social realtor! Thank you Matt!

As a first time a had a lot of questions about the home buying process as well excitement and of course some skepticism about what I was getting into. Matt was able to answer anything and everything I threw at him in a concise and straight forward way while also adding pieces of knowledge that were really helpful throughout the process. He was always professional, prompt, a great communicator, and a tenacious ally. What sticks out to me most about Matt is his matter a fact way of going through real estate. He let me know what to expect, what was reasonable, and when the time came helped me shape a competitive offer that landed me the condo I wanted. No padding, no b/s, no sugar coating; just the facts and his honest opinion when I asked for it. If you're considering buying a home he should be at the top of your list. And I'm sure he'd be just as helpful to someone who has been through the home buying process before.

Matt was kind, personable, professional, hard working, knowledgeable, easy to work with, always available to talk, took the extra steps to make sure our house sold for the best price and as quickly as possible. Matt included my husband and I in making the best decisions to market our home. We would definitely use Matt again!

Matt is an excellent agent. My wife and I rented in the area for a few years and had a rough idea what we were looking for. Matt did a fantastic job applying his local real estate knowledge to fill in the gaps and help us get into our first house! He devoted time to understand our priorities and guided us through each step of the process, offering thoughtful advice at just the right times. He promptly responded to our questions and was patient as we learned exactly what we were looking for. He absolutely lived up to his reputation as a trustworthy, knowledgeable and hard-working professional. I would choose Matt again in a heartbeat and highly recommend him.

Matt helped us sell our townhouse earlier this year at asking price and we had an amazing experience! Matt's calm, easygoing, and knowledgeable manner helped to set us at ease during the whole process. He always led with his honest assessment of what was possible based on both his own experience and the collective experience of his office. Then, we came up with a plan together and he backed up that plan with positivity and lots of hard work. Matt managed all of our freak outs, including an unexpected week-long snow storm the week before we were originally set to list and our first buyer backing out, with reasoned calm, grace, and flexibility. He was always available to take our calls even on nights and weekends. We were also impressed by his excellent slate of service providers--from painters, to cleaners, to landscapers, to handymen, to stagers--that made our house stick out from the rest. (In fact, seeing everything come together for our first open house made us second guess whether we wanted to move!) If Matt's expert guidance weren't already enough, the fact that we were able to donate a portion of the proceeds to our favorite nonprofit made the whole experience unique and especially meaningful. Matt Chapman has our wholehearted recommendation!

Not only was Matt thoughtful and attentive to us, he also had the savvy to navigate the Seattle market, which in our case meant competing with six other offers. In the end, we got the house we hoped to find in a tough market. Matt did a good job helping us know when it would be good to let OK but not ideal options go and focus on the house that would fit our budget and criteria. It’s hard in a hot market to stay focused and Matt was a great companion and agent all the way through. I really trusted Matt with the negotiation process. Can’t recommend him highly enough!

Matt walked me through the process of buying my first home. He's patient, knowledgeable, accommodating, and an all around great guy. We had some great conversations while touring homes. With Matt's help, I was able to quickly get an offer on a great home submitted and accepted, despite a sudden deadline due to a competing offer. Matt predicted exactly how the seller and other buyer would behave, making sure I didn't overspend. Highly recommended.

I was a first time home buyer looking for the perfect home and Matt was super helpful and informative during the entire process answering all my questions on the best areas to buy in Seattle that would be safe, build equity, the finances involved, offer process, and applying for a loan. He was available at all times, even during the weekend and weeknights to discuss options and tour some potential homes I was interested in. He's patient, understanding and takes the time to understand your needs and sends weekly emails with potential home options and follows up on a regular basis. All in all, the level of professionalism and proficiency has exceeded my expectations, and I was able to seal the deal in a very tight closing time frame with our first offer, and I felt supported throughout the whole process. I couldn't ask for a better agent to work with. Thank you Matt!
