We recently purchased our forever home in North Scottsdale with the help of real estate agent, Matt Horton. Having relocated for work across the nation several times, we know first-hand how critical it is to have a really good real estate agent in both the buying and selling process. This most recent relocation from Colorado to Arizona did not include the normal relo package from my employer, so I was even more anxious about selecting just the right realtor. However, from the moment I met Matt I knew he was the right choice. My husband was in Colorado the first time I went to look at houses with Matt. As a woman, that can be a little scary but he demonstrated just the right balance of professionalism and humor that quickly put me at ease. I was immediately impressed with how many questions he asked to make sure he had a really good understanding of what I liked, what I was looking for in a home, and what our plans were for the future. Never once did he talk down to me or make me feel uncomfortable, which is something I’ve experienced in the past with other salesmen. When looking at homes, I really appreciated how honest and forthright Matt was in his feedback and his willingness to explain the why behind things. What I think I appreciated the most was his resolve to not allow me to purchase a home that he knew either wasn’t the quality we were looking for or was something he knew we’d have issues with in the future based on our plans. I told my husband he was going to like Matt. When he had the opportunity to come to AZ and we went to look at more homes, they immediately hit it off. From that time on, it was more like friends going to look at houses than buyers with their realtor. We experienced some stressful situations while selling our home in Colorado and Matt was there for us each step of the way even when we had to temporarily step back from a purchase in Arizona. It was during this time that Matt called and said he found us the perfect house and he was right, it was everything we were looking for and more. Matt was quick to put the wheels in motion with all key parties so we wouldn’t lose the opportunity to purchase our forever home. We really admired how Matt ensured the sale was a win for all parties and it was the smoothest home purchase we’ve ever experienced. If you’re looking for a realtor that genuinely cares, demonstrates the highest level of integrity and trust, puts your best interests ahead of their desire for a sale, knows Arizona especially the North Scottsdale market, and is just downright “fun”…Matt is your man! Give him a call, you’ll be glad you did and you’ll gain a friend in the process.
