For nearly two decades, Matt Stone has transcended the role of a mere real estate broker - he has been a trusted advisor, innovator, and out-of-the-box thinker, consistently delivering exceptional results for his clients and agents. With over 18 years of experience and transactions exceeding $1.5 billion, Matt's expertise is unmatched. In 2023, Real Producers Magazine ranked him 2nd out of 8,000 agents in Charlotte, a testament to his remarkable results. Matt's entrepreneurial journey began at the age of 13 when he started a car detailing business from the parking lot of his father's church. By 16, his cold calling efforts had landed him an internship with a custom homebuilder. At just 18, Matt became one of the youngest licensed real estate brokers ever in the Carolinas. In 2009, he founded his own brokerage and rental management business, quickly amassing a portfolio of over $100 million in properties under management. To expand his expertise, Matt obtained a general contractor's license in 2014 and has since remodeled and built homes across the Carolinas, Florida, and Spain. Matt provides a breadth of knowledge that is unmatched. From insights encompassing construction, budgeting, timelines, and local regulations to having personally renovated numerous properties and guided developers on projects of varying scales, Matt brings a unique perspective and vision to the table. As an investor himself, he possesses intimate knowledge of property pro formas, landlord-tenant law, use optimization, 1031 exchanges, and tax implications. Today, Matt leads a powerhouse team of brokers, meticulously selected and trained to meet and uphold 'The Stone Standard.' The team's success is achieved, in part, by leveraging cutting-edge technology and our bespoke property marketing program, "The Stone Selling System." With nearly 1,000 five-star client reviews across various platforms, the team is steadfast in its mission to deliver an unparalleled client experience while preserving the personal touch.

Working with Matthew Coles and his team was a pleasure! From start to finish he made the process easy, answered all of our questions, responded in a timely manner, and worked hard to ensure we found the right house to meet our current needs. Considering the challenges with us currently living out of state, Matthew did a great job working with us on our timeline to enable us to find and close on our house quickly. Thank you Matthew and Stone Realty Group!

I am so thankful God put Michelle in my path! She was such an encouragement. She kept me updated every step of the way during the sale of our home. By the grace of God (and Michelles expertise), it is officially SOLD!!!! She truly went above and beyond. Thank you, Michelle, again and again!

This man delivered on every promise that was made. Always polite and incredibly knowledgeable. He walked us through the process step by step and was there when needed, even when we were just feeling out the market for 6 months

We had such an amazing experience working with Gabe. From start to finish, he made the entire process feel easy and stress-free. He is beyond niceaEUR"truly one of the most personable people weve ever worked withaEUR"and he was so good with our kids. What really stood out was his confidence and ability to handle any situation that came up. No matter what, he always had a solution and never made us feel worried or uncertain. He clearly knows what hes doing and has aEURoepeopleaEUR? for everything, which made every step of the process seamless. We always felt taken care of and supported, and we couldnt have asked for a better person to guide us through buying our home. Highly, highly recommend to any and everyone.

We want to take this opportunity to thank Mackenzie for everything she did to help us find the home of our dreams here in Mooresville NC. What started out as a hopeful search turned into over a year of showings, offers, negotiations and two heartbreaking deals that fell through at the last minute. Throughout this long year, Mackenzie never wavered. Her patience, expertise, and genuine care kept us going. She truly was the one saving grace during a very stressful year. Were now settling into our beautiful home, and Mackenzie continues to reach out to see how we are doing! We feel we not only found our new home but also found a friend here in NC! If you are looking for someone who will give you 110% throughout your journey, then Mackenzie is for you!! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Were so lucky to have found her and Matt Stone Realty!!
