Matt is a great realtor - weve never had such an easy open-and-close home buying experience. We never had to lift a finger, and stress was non-existent throughout the process. His expertise and connections in the industry helped us get into a competitive home, and wed recommend him highly if considering buying in the Syracuse area!
