From start to finish, Matt demonstrated unparalleled professionalism, positive energy, efficiency, and dedication to ensure a seamless buying experience. He organized property viewing days within my time windows and with route optimization in mind. His knowledge of inspections and ability to foresee potential issues were truly impressive, giving me peace of mind throughout the process. This commitment to satisfaction extended throughout the closing process as Matt kept me informed every step of the way and ensured transparency in all dealings. After closing, I had limited time to dedicate to fixing up the property. Matt didn't hesitate to step in. He sourced trustworthy workers, personally met them, and provided regular updates on their progress.

  • "Where do I even start with singing the praises for Matt and his work?! My husband and I were thinking about moving from out of state to CA and knew next to nothing about the areas we were targeting and what would work for us. In comes Matt! He was gracious to meet with us last minute when we were in town to get to know us and our wants and needs. That afternoon he was already sending us listings that were dialed in on what would work for us. His communication was spot on every time when we had a question but he was also proactive in explaining the process to us as first time buyers in what to expect as moved forward in the buying transaction. Matt was an absolute delight to work with, fought hard to get us a deal under asking price and closing within 17 days and made himself available to be at the inspection and final walk through because we were out of state. If you are looking for an agent who makes you feel at ease and knows what he’s doing, Matt is your person. We even heard feedback from the sellers agent and loan company on how awesome he was to work with as well! We will, without a doubt, refer anyone looking to buy or sell in CA to him. Thanks Matt!!" - Cassandra P.

  • "Matt is so incredibly knowledgeable. He recently helped my wife and I sell our place in downtown San Diego and was SUPER easy to work with. He has a particular knack for making you feel like there are no bad questions and gets back to you with answers very quickly. He has a great team working with him that is also very communicative about what documents need to be signed and corresponding dates. We had moved by the time we were selling our place, and Matt went above and beyond to ensure the photos, listing details, and unit itself was show ready. He knew exactly what to price the unit at to garner the best offer and once we accepted the offer, he continued to stay on top of the buyers ensuring the timelines were met and we got what we wanted out of the deal. My wife and I walked away feeling great about the process and like we got the absolute best deal. Working with Matt was the best choice for us hands down. We have met quite a few agents and I cannot speak highly enough of this particular experience with Matt. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to both friends and family." - Marcus M.

If you are a buyer or a seller in this market you need to work with someone that has the experience to navigate this difficult market. Matt is your guy!" - Corey H.

  • "Matt helped us tremendously in getting our place sold! We were previously renting the unit for a year and had since moved to a different city. Not living in the area of the place you are trying to sell can be very difficult when it comes to smaller listing details, photographs, and final tweaks in preparing our unit for an open house. However, Matt put our minds at ease and took care of every step with a particular attention to detail which exceeded our expectations. He was very communicative in explaining the home selling process, as we were first time home sellers with many questions. Nevertheless, he was able to provide a clear outline of what needed to be done. Matt clearly knows the market very well and guided us to listing our property at a price which created a great turnout for our opening weekend. We were ecstatic with the offer we received (after our first showing) and how quickly it came. Without a doubt it was due to the help and expertise Matt provided that we were able to sell our property so quickly, and for that we can’t be more thankful and appreciative to have him as our listing Agent. My husband and I strongly recommend working with Matt and his excellent (and equally communicative) team! When we are able to return to San Diego, Matt will be the first person we contact to help with finding us a place to live!" - Kelley E.

  • "I don't often write reviews...but my recent real estate experience necessitates spreading the word. My wife and I are extremely happy with Matt as our buying agent, and will use him for all future transactions. I realize that he must service many other clients in order to make a living, but we always had the feeling that Matt was doing nothing other than tending to and anticipating our needs. Last minute text inquiring about a property? No problem, he's got you a showing in an hour, and he'll be there with a smile. Questions for the listing agent? Don't worry, he's already their best friend. Updates on new to market properties? Somehow he will meet the perfect balance of urgency and patience. Matt treated us professionally and with respect, answered all of our questions, hustled, pushed when he had to and ultimately got us what we wanted. Great experience all around, can't recommend him enough. You will walk away from your transaction happy that you trusted Matt with your business and hard earned money, a feeling I have had very few times in my life. Thanks, Matt!" - Mike A.

  • "Axe is a ROCKSTAR! He's super easy to work with and is very knowledgeable about the local housing market. Not only is he a down-to-earth guy up front, but when it comes to setting his clients up for success, he's a bulldog at the negotiation table. He'll ask the hard questions and keep everyone informed throughout the entire process of the home purchase / sale. With Matt, you'll always win." - Andrew S.

  • "Great and awesome experience working with Matt! From the very beginning he was extremely professional and showed immense knowledge in what we were trying to get accomplished.
