A lot of people are afraid to buy a home, so I wanted my friend Matt to come in and talk to us about his home buying experience.

Matt and his wife were newlyweds in 2016 and wanted to buy a house right away. They had a nice sum for a down payment, but wanted to make sure they found a good Realtor. A friend mentioned our name to him, so he gave us a call and we got to work.

The process of searching for a home was enjoyable for Matt and his wife. We gave them a list of homes for sale that fit what we were looking for. I’ll let Matt take it from there:

“Once we found a good home, we got outbid the first time. The next time a great home came up, we wanted to make sure we got in right away. We helped them put in an offer right away, and it got accepted. We crafted the offer in a way that got them the home without having to pay the highest price.”

Matt and his wife had a very enjoyable experience.


It’s been a year and a half since they’ve been in the new home. They paid $140,000 and now it’s worth nearly $175,000. They've been keeping up with updates and they’re excited to have such a great investment in their possession.

Thanks to Matt for joining me. If you have any questions for us about the home buying process or anything else related to real estate, don’t hesitate to give us a call or send us an email. We look forward to hearing from you soon.
