ZillowVERIFIEDAwesome realtor!!! We wanted someone knowledgable about the competitive LA market, and experienced enough to take us with confidence through the entire journey. I feel truly fortunate to have been given a referral to Matt. He guided us through every detail and made the process much more manageable and enjoyable. He had a subtle way of steering us away from some of our more risky or impulsive options, and towards what I can honestly say is our dream home. He's also just a great guy, which made the whole experience a lot less stressful. Grateful to have had Matt Helganz as our realtor, highly recommended.

ZillowVERIFIEDEXCEPTIONAL would most aptly describe our experience with Matt. He was confident in his understanding of the market and professional in his handling of the sale from start to finish. What an amazing advocate to represent us as the sellers. We would not hesitate to recommend Matt Helganz for any real estate need! He's simply the best.

ZillowVERIFIEDMatt is an amazing realtor who I would recommend to everyone! Matt helped my husband and I search for our first home in LA. After taking the time to get to know us, our lifestyle, and what we were looking for, he was able to recommend the Pasadena and Altadena areas. These were areas in which we hadn't previously considered but Matt was confident these areas would fit us best. After spending time in the area we realized how correct Matt was in his assessment! Overall, Matt was energetic, prompt, and provided us with constant updates. The houses he chose to show us were picked thoughtfully and efficiently. He did a fantastic job of walking us through the process of obtaining a mortgage and signing all documents. He regularly communicated with our loan officer to ensure the process was moving smoothly and promptly. Additionally, Matt walked us through the inspection and due diligence process. He was there every step of the way and we couldn't be more appreciative!Matt even went above and beyond - after we had closed on the home, we found some gas leak issues. Matt helped us contact the Home Warranty company and connected us with a plumber he uses and trusts. Helping us with this issue was beyond the scope of his duties and we were so impressed to find that he truly cares about making sure his clients are happy once they get in their home!I would highly recommend Matt to anyone.

ZillowVERIFIEDIt was a great pleasure working with Matt. He helped us to sell our condo. Matt was very communicative throughout the process, explained to us every step in details so the whole transaction was very smooth and clear. You don't really have to worry if you chose him as your agent!

ZillowVERIFIEDAs a first time homebuyer I had a lot of questions and wanted to see a lot of homes. Matt was there every step of the way, answering questions and giving advice. He went with me to a ton of properties over many weekends until I finally found a place I loved. The sellers were difficult and the deal looked like it was going to fall through at multiple points, but Matt always had a new strategy to try. All the while, he took the time to explain complex real estate questions (sometimes multiple times when I was still confused) and he referred me to a lender that saved me a LOT of money over the one I found through my own research. I'm no big time client - I might even be considered small potatoes in this real estate market. Didn't matter, Matt was great!

ZillowVERIFIEDMatt was absolute the right person at the right time for us. From the moment we met with Matt, via telephone (a reach out from me due to a marketing envelope we received from him), Matt was responsive, professional, kind, and extremely patient. He gave us the time we needed to decide when to sell our house, truly understood what it meant to sell our home after 31 years, walked us through every step, answered questions multiple times sometimes, was always available by phone or in person, and is simply a wonderful person, and a person of integrity. We have always considered ourselves blessed to have met Matt Helganz when we did, and without hesitation recommend Matt for any real estate needs you have.

ZillowVERIFIEDMatt Helganz is an amazing Real Estate professional! This was my parents property they owned for over 65 years. They were the original owners so it was near and dear to me. It was time to sell after my mom passed away and I couldn't have done it without Matt's knowledge and guidance in the area. The term "going above and beyond the call of duty" definitely applies with Matt. Always called when he said he was and follows through with his commitments. I couldn't' recommend Matt more highly! You will be in good hands!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe would absolutely recommend using Matt for either buying or selling your next home. He was incredibly patient, thorough, and accessible. We toured several properties and Matt was able to react quickly and offer sound advice as the market dictated. We are extremely pleased with the results and love our new home!

ZillowVERIFIEDMatt was professional, personable and awesome to work with! Not at all controlling or pushy as I have heard some realtors can be. He listened to my concerns and moved forward with those in mind. He actually managed to close escrow prior to the 30 days. I had already moved to my new home in Ventura and Matt worked with escrow to submit any documents possible in Docusign format to save me the additional trips to LA. Matt asked me to trust him and I did. He made what could have been a very stressful experience into a successful business transaction.If you are thinking of selling or buying property, I would highly recommend you take the time to meet with Matt Helganz personally.

ZillowVERIFIEDMy investment partner and I were looking to sell one of our rental properties in the Pasadena area. I had listed the property casually on Zillow with a Make Me Move Price to see what kind of attention it would draw. Matt was probably the 2nd realtor that I had interviewed and there was something about him that gave me confidence in selecting him. Matt is efficient and thorough, while being attentive to his clients' needs. During the process I've come to get to know Matt as a friend and there will definitely be future business coming his way soon.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe can't say enough good things about Matt! He's simply great at what he does and helped us sell our beloved house and buy an equally impressive one - all at the same time! Matt has extensive knowledge about the Pasadena/South Pasadena/Eagle Rock/Highland Park areas which was quite helpful. He is skilled, meticulous, compassionate, patient, responsive, and aggressive - all qualities that were needed throughout our process. Our deal had a lot of moving parts and Matt negotiated and managed all of it with ease.

Review for Member: Matt Helganz
ZillowVERIFIEDMatt approached me from a "Make Me Move" listing which I posted on Zillow. What made Matt stand out from the other FIFTY realtors who approached me from Zillow was his continued interest over a 6 month period of time, "gently" checking in with me from time to time, offering to help when needed. Most of the other realtors where "here today and gone tomorrow". Furthermore, this was a distressed property and not a typical candidate for market analysis, photos, brochures and open houses. Matt was neither negative nor deterred from this type of listing. In fact, he was enthusiastic! With his strategy, we had a good offer within four days and closing within 2 weeks of listing. He pushed the buyer through escrow and rode this sale to the finish line. What stands out for me is that I felt Matt was truly on my side. I would use Matt's services again and I highly recommend Matt!

ZillowVERIFIEDMatt is a high caliber real estate professional. His persistent, highly effective communication skills ended up connecting us on the sale of our home, all generating from a cold call. Throughout the entire process of selling our home, Matt did everything he said he would do for us. The multiple offers Matt brought to the table all were legitimate contenders. We hit a home run with an exceedingly over asking price offer. Matt displayed his passion for real estate while only representing our interests during the entire process of the sale. From the listing contract to closing, we felt excited, safe, and confident. Highly recommended. Bravo Matt!

ZillowVERIFIEDI have a condominium that I rent out in Alhambra, CA that Matthew has gotten tenants for over a 4 year period. The first tenant was there for 3 years and only moved out because his fathers health was failing. The most recent tenants have been there a little over a year and are great people. Matthew not only got top dollar for my unit but each time it became available it was only on the market for a few days, he got it rented quickly! Matthew has earned my total confidence, he does a thorough screening/background check and gets solid people in. He manages the unit and gets reliable contractors to come and provide services when needed. Thank you Matt!Although this review is about my rental, he was also the agent that got my new home in Long Beach, CA! I shared with Matthew that I was interested in purchasing a home near the beach in a safe neighborhood and he suggested Long Beach, CA., specifically around Cal State Long Beach University. We met at his office and he showed me a variety of homes that not only looked to be in great neighborhoods but fit my budget. Within a couple of days he had scheduled a Saturday for us to look at 5 homes in the Cal State Long Beach area. After a busy day of house viewing and driving through some wonderful neighborhoods I really fell in love with Long Beach. Not all of the homes we looked at fit my wants but knew that this was where I wanted to live. We started to head to the freeway to go home when Matthew said hold on I have one more place that sounds to be closer to what it is you're looking for. It just so happened that there was an open house going on at that property so we stopped in. Matthew asked if I was interested, I said absolutely! Matthew spoke with the agent, was told the asking price, we talked, he immediately went and made a lower offer, surprisingly the agent agreed to the amount. Matthew wrote up an official offer when he got back to his office, sent it to the agent and it was accepted. Matthew made the whole process absolutely trouble free, it was like buying a car. Another smooth transaction!! By the way, my property value went up considerably in just a matter of months! Great timing! Thank you Matthew for directing me to the beautiful and safe city of Long Beach, CA

ZillowVERIFIEDChoosing a real estate agent to sell or purchase property is very critical to satisfaction with the process and end result. We have lived in our area for approximately 40 years and watched many residences change ownership. Most changes were without much problem, but few told of a wonderful experience. Fortunately we chose an ideal agent to sell our residence located in the Linda Vista area if Pasadena, CA. Many agents in this area have many years of successful experience, so too long in that their energy and desire may be softened by that past success history. Mr. Matt Helganz represents a fresh, new class of dynamic, personable and dedicated agents that knows the work needed to be completed to take a property sale to the marketplace at a price point that is in line with current market prices.Matt's knowledge of the law, document requirements, home staging, combined with his never ending energy and warm personality make him a candidate for consideration by anyone looking for an honest, hardworking agent that takes into account the needs of both parties involved in the transaction. Matt works well with other real estate agents and uses social media to maximize property exposure.It is very difficult for us to outline all of Mr. Helganz's attributes, but those in need of a fresh, honest, very personable and dynamic real estate agent that walks with a spring is his step, one would be well served to call on Matt Helganz and his support team that includes an excellent in house, competitively priced escrow agent to control the paperwork if his client should desire such service.We were fortunate to sell our home with Matt's professional assistance during the most difficult time of year for property sales.Mr. Matt Helganz deserves a five (5) star real estate professional rating which we are proud to provide and thank him for his guidance and support .Byron and Loree McIntire

ZillowVERIFIEDThought selling a home when out of state would be quite challenging. Especially when the tenant at times would not cooperate with the sale. But Matt handled everything in a way I wished all professionals in any field would do. He kept us appraised of all situations. Never in the dark at any time. The quick sale and the closing of escrow went smoothly with his expertise and help. Highly, highly recommend Matt.

ZillowVERIFIEDA few of the qualities I look for when working with a real estate agent are promptness,honesty, integrity,and knowledge of the market. These are all qualities you'll find in Matt Helganz. Matt helped me purchase my home back in 2012 and fought for me all the way until the end of escrow and got me in the home I wanted and at competitive price. When it came time to sell the home I again tapped on Matt's expertise. After going over his professional evaluation of my homes' value, he then brought a professional photographer in and took some absolutely amazing photos for the marketing packet he put together. After deciding on a competitive price we listed the home and in only a few short weeks the home was in escrow, thanks to his hard work and dedication. Matt's integration of technology into his business model helps me as a client get through all of the steps of filling out paperwork in a fraction of the time. Matt works closely with other trade professionals in both escrow photography marketing, pest control.... and other fields that helped make my experience flawless. I would highly recommend working with Matthew Helganz. I look forward to working with him in the future. Sincerely Joseph G

ZillowVERIFIEDI was a first time home buyer and had little knowledge about real estate transactions. I was so fortunate to have Matt as my agent. He understood my need, listening patiently before offering any of his opinion. During my house searching in such a very competitive housing market, Matt never offered any misleading information. He always stood on the buyer's side in any steps of the transactions, from negotiation to inspection and escrow. Sometime I felt he was buying his own house. He was an extremely good problem-solver, which sometimes made me worry that potential buyers may propose too many problems for him to solve. As an excellent realtor in the profession, Matt is knowledgeable, efficient, and responsive. In person, he a dear friend. Honest, reliable, and considerate. I highly recommend him to any potential buyer.

ZillowVERIFIEDIf you have a piece of property to sell or rent, definitely give Matt a call. I used Matt to rent out my house and I could not have ask for a better realtor. He made everything so easy and was able to negotiate above asking price in a very professional manner. Everything was taken care of which allowed me to focus on getting the house ready. He was also a tremendous help on telling me where to spend as well as where not to spend.He is friendly, reliable, honest, punctual, and knowledgeable on your housing needs. One of his best traits is his communication skills. He was always just a phone call away to answer my questions or guide me through the process. He is very pleasant to be around and always came dressed and groomed impecabaly. While I'm sure I wasn't one of his biggest clients, he made me feel as though I was. I took a chance on using Matt so you won't have to. It was the smartest decision that I made. My wife and I plan to buy our own home together next year and Matt will be the first call that I make.

ZillowVERIFIEDMy husband and I were looking for a home in Los Angeles several months ago and while driving around the areas we were interested in (roughly in and around Pasadena), we stopped to look at a house that was listed by Matt Helganz. After contacting him, we learned that the home had recently been purchased and was already in escrow. In any case, we decided to continue our search with Matt's help and are so incredibly glad we did. With Matt's knowledge of the area and real estate expertise, we found the perfect home in Highland Park that meets all of our needs. Throughout the process, Matt was professional, communicative, punctual and tenacious in his quest to find just the right home for us. Thanks again, Matt!

ZillowVERIFIEDMatt was the perfect agent for us. His knowledge, ability, and professionalism were integral in finding and landing our home in a very competitive marketing area. Low inventory and high demand stretched our search over a year; throughout, Matt stood by us, providing his insight, and advice, and answering every question and concern before, during, and after. Our Highest Recommendation - Matt is my agent, you'd be fortunate if he was yours.

Review for Member: Matt Helganz
ZillowVERIFIEDIn all honesty, we would not use Matt again. On the up side, the property my spouse inherited did sell, but I feel the reason we got the price we got for it was because I asked him to raise it. This whole sale didn't settle well in the end as after Matt received his sale, he absolutely was not responsive as he was when he wanted to sell the property. There were post issues that really left us disappointed with him because we felt he got his deal and didn't have concern for what we thought we were his clients. If I was to review two week ago, I would have given one star, but he did overall sell the property and we can move forward. There were some unprofessional instances throughout this where I feel that if you are looking for a professional agent who is going to stick by you till even after the end of the transaction (cause some issues do tend to arise) then I would not recommend Matt. At least it wasn't a match for my spouse and I, but possibly could be for someone else.

ZillowVERIFIEDMatt knocked it over the fence for us! He did a great job through the entire process, from advice on readying it for sale, to pricing it, to marketing it, to getting more than our asking price. He really went above and beyond when he helped us deal with with a very challenging tenant. We enjoyed working with him, and and we'd be happy to work with him again.

ZillowVERIFIEDMy husband and I purchased our home recently. Matt was our agent and it was wonderful to work with. Matt is amazing. He is knowledgeable, patient, and extremely helpful at every step in the process. He is aware of the myriad of details from the sale to the financing to the required inspections to the closing paperwork. He walked us through the entire process from start to finish. He worked seamlessly with our mortgage lender and escrow company to remove any barriers as well as he was always one step ahead when something needed to done. As a result, we closed on our home in 23-days. We enjoyed the process of purchasing our house very much and will enjoy the house for many years to come. Thank you, Matt for making this journey a pleasant one.In conclusion, I would highly recommend Matt to anyone looking to purchase a house!

ZillowVERIFIEDMatt is AWSOME! This is our 3rd transaction within a year: 1. purchase of our rental property, 2. sales of our townhome, 3. purchase of our new home (the last one is Milan). The fact that we are using him repeatedly tells you something about his work!For our last transaction: me and my wife were planning to make offer above asking price, but Matt talk us out of it and went out of his way to talk to the seller's agent to "feel them out" before we made the offer, allow us to get a close to 10% below the asking price. Unheard of in the South Pasadena area!! Good job Matt! Will work with you again when we are looking again!!

ZillowVERIFIEDMatt helped us leased an investment property (which he also bought for us at a great price under multiple bid situation) in downtown. We really felt that we found a great partnership in Matt when it comes to our real estate investments. He truly looks out for our interest. When we were prepared to accept our first lease offer at a lower price, he advised against it saying that we should be able to get a better one and he is right!! We got a much better one just couple of days later. Matt is a true professional, thorough, detailed with exceptional people skill. We couldn't be happier with his service!!

Matt is the person you should see before you make decision with whom you want to work with. Good luck.

ZillowVERIFIEDThis is our second purchase with Matt. We got our first downtown loft 1.5 years ago through Matt, it was a multiple bid situation, we did not think we could get it, but Matt did it for us through his amazing negotiation skill and people skill. For this second purchase, Matt did it again, same multiple bid situation...miraculously, we got it...again. He communicates promptly ,effectively and works seamlessly with all parties. Always on top of things and never pushy. Both times, he managed the purchasing process smoothly, patiently and problem free. We are so happy with Matt and our purchases. We have worked with quite a few real estate agents with our other real estate transactions before, most were a disappointment and we never use them twice . Matt is by far the best thus the second purchase. For sure Matt will always be our agent of choice when it comes to our Real estate transactions. We highly recommend him! He will make your real estate dream come true.

ZillowVERIFIEDMy husband and I recently purchased our first home together. I had a lot of questions, and Matt was patient and very knowledgeable, making sure to answer all my questions in a thorough and timely fashion. The purchase of our new home could not have been more seamless, Matt made sure we got the best deal possible. I really appreciate all the work he did for us in regards to working with our limited budget and schedules. He even was present for the inspections that we could not make it to. I would recommend his services to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. I love our new house, and cant wait to move in. Thank you Matt you did a fantastic job, and we will most definitely call you down the road when it comes time to buy house number 2.

ZillowVERIFIEDMatt was referred to me by a trusted source at my bank through upper management. This was my first property which was also an investment/income property so I wanted to work with someone who knew income properties well. From the beginning he got right back to me and was able to share his knowledge of the market, which gave me confidence in the decision making process that lay ahead. We then immediately started viewing properties that fit my criteria and offered value. I never felt pressured or overwhelmed by Matt but rather reassured with his follow up and constant communication. After looking for a short time Matt was able to spot an excellent value (well below my budget) on the market that we jumped on right away. His quick response time and rapport with the other agent secured us the deal early in the process, which was critical because several offers came in behind us for much more money.When it came time to perform inspections and our due diligence Matt was sure to help me get as much complete information as possible. There were some questions with the City Occupancy which he made every effort to clear and make sure we were good to move forward with before I started spending time and money. Then we had several inspectors and contractors visit the property so that the underlying issues were clearly spelled out to me. I knew exactly what I was getting into and what the cost for any future repairs might be. When it came to closing time he had to go out of town unexpectedly, but always arranged for the necessary paperwork and access to the property as well as being available via phone/text/email.This property was considerably under my budget and Matt went outside of the box to find me a great value, not just to find me the most expensive thing to generate a higher commission. I truly feel that he had my best interests in mind during this process. He is professional, knowledgeable, and honest....exactly the kind of qualities you would look for in a real estate agent. I would strongly recommend Matt to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate! I will be using him again for my next purchase.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe recently were able to close escrow on a home that we loved only because of Matt's fantastic negotiating and interpersonal skills. First, we had some issues because the sellers only wanted to allow us 10 days to remove contingencies as they were in a rush to close the escrow. Not only did the home need multiple inspections but the seller's relator was only available five days into the period. Matt was able to negotiate a longer period. Then, there were issues that arose and a verbal exchange between seller and buyer over a repair and the deal was off. Matt intervened and smoothed over the bad feelings and negotiated a very large credit for us and we were in the deal again. He always returned phone calls promptly, was on time for all meetings and made sure we completed all our paperwork, Most of all we appreciated his ability to coordinate all the pieces and keep our emotions under control. We really, really wanted this house and we are so grateful to Matt for making this happen. We have bought and sold six houses in our lifetime and by far Matt was the best realtor we have known.

ZillowVERIFIEDMatt was very knowledgable about the Pasadena and East Los Angeles area. He was also very accessible to use throughout the whole process. We felt as though he had our best interest at heart. He gave us his opinion but did not give it in the sense to steer us in a certain direction. Matt's ability to communicate with his clients is exceptional. He would always let us know what was going on, what steps were next and what we could expect in the future throughout our process. When buying or selling a house I would definitely use Matt again
