Client Testimonials

Matthew was everything and MORE than we could have hoped for in an agent. This being our first home purchase, he made us comfortable with each step of the process and made himself available to us at all times. Matthew was kind and energetic, and he was highly knowledgeable in the Charleston real estate structure, rules, and trends. When we asked for his opinion, he provided a realistic, understandable, and unbiased viewpoint. Even after we purchased our new home, Matthew has continued to work with us and be available to help in any way. We have and will continue to recommend him to other buyers, and when the time comes, we will use Matthew for future real-estate needs, both buying and selling.

Matthew was referred to us by a client of mine who also happens to be Matthew’s father. We could not have been more satisfied with our choice of agents to find our home in Mount Pleasant. After extensive research on the internet and phone calls, my wife, Theresa, flew from our current home in San Francisco to look at properties in Charleston and Mount Pleasant. He even found renters and managed a cash flow positive lease through August, 2018. Matthew has the great listening skills, people skills and property knowledge needed in your profession. On Theresa’s tour with Matthew, he only showed homes based on our wish list, timing and budget. He helped us through the financing and made local recommendations which we have used. We will continue to work with Matthew in the future as we have become friends in additon to being clients. His positive attitude and passion for his clients is impeccable. He practices my core business principal: “First Class Business in a First Class Way”

Steven and Theresa Saulque

Matthew was instrumental in not only the purchase of our new home in I’on but also navigating the complexities of a relocation from the northeast to Charleston. With our very limited knowledge of the area, we were the worst of clients because we not only did not know what we wanted, we actually thought we did. Our initial must have list and neighborhood requirements were 180 degrees from what we actually needed but instead of telling us that he knew better than us what we needed (which wouldn’t have worked) he took the time to show us what we didn’t want and helped get us to what worked for us without us ever feeling like he was pushing us. Once we were set on the home he expertly negotiated the sale and inspection aspect which again was very different than up north. Matthew was always available to us and looking back at the several months it took to find our home he answered his cell literally (and I am using literally correctly) every time I called him. I have no idea if he even has voicemail since I never got it once. In the end we ended up in the perfect neighborhood, on the perfect street and in the perfect home. I can safely say that had we dealt with almost any other agent we would have not had the outcome we did. I fully endorse Matthew and will only work with him if we ever move.
