Matthew H.

This was our first investment property and honestly I was nervous going into it. My husband and I had so many questions and I wasn't sure we were ready. Matthew was patient with all of it. He never rushed us, never pushed us toward something that didn't feel right. He'd text us updates before we even thought to ask, and he made sure we felt good about every decision before we committed to anything. That made it way less stressful than I thought it'd be. What I didn't expect from a real estate agent is how well Matthew understands design and space. I have a strong design eye myself so I notice when someone can actually see what a property could become - and Matthew has that. He broke down what it would take to get there and showed us the numbers on what we could expect in appreciation. I knew exactly what I was investing in and why it made sense, which meant I never felt like we were risking money on something we didn't fully understand. I don't think we would've found a property that fit us this well without someone who understands design and construction the way he does. That's what made the difference for me. I tell people all the time - if you're buying in LA or looking at your first rental property, talk to Matthew before you do anything else. He genuinely cares and you can feel it from the first conversation!

My partner and I were relocating to LA and had no idea where to even start when it came to finding the right neighborhood. Matt was incredible from the very beginning. He took the time to really understand what we were looking for and taught us so much about the different areas around Los Angeles. What stood out the most was his attention to detail. When we'd look at a place, he wasn't just showing us the property, he was breaking down the whole neighborhood. Walking distance to shopping, which grocery stores were nearby, even things we wouldn't have thought about like traffic noise from nearby streets. He genuinely cared about us ending up somewhere that felt right, not just somewhere available. We spent a lot of time together looking at different options across multiple areas, and he was always patient, always knowledgeable, and always honest about the pros and cons of each location. For anyone relocating to LA and feeling overwhelmed, if you want someone genuine, authentic, and someone you can really trust with big decisions, Matt is just that. We never once felt pressured and we always felt like we were in good hands.

I'd been looking at investment properties in LA for a while and honestly struggled to find an agent who got what I was trying to do. Most of them were geared toward owner-occupied buyers and just didn't think the way an investor needs them to. I met Matthew at an event and we got chatting. Turns out we both work in Beverly Hills. I knew pretty quickly he was different. He actually gets the investor side of things. He wasn't just showing me listings, he was breaking down the upside potential, talking about where the neighborhood was heading, and helping me figure out where we could add real value. That's not something most agents do. And I'll say this - I'm never afraid to ask Matthew a question because I know he's going to give me the honest answer, even if it's not what I want to hear. When you're putting that kind of money on the line, that's everything. We ended up buying a value-add property in West Adams and it's now running as a short-term rental. It's performing better than we projected and I couldn't be happier with how it's turned out. The part that really got me though is what happened after we closed. Matthew didn't just move on to the next deal. He helped us plan the renovation, brought in contractors he trusted, sourced materials, and even helped get the Airbnb management set up. Most agents hand you the keys and that's the last you hear from them. Matthew's not like that. If you're buying an investment property in Los Angeles and you want someone who actually thinks like an investor and genuinely cares about whether it works out for you, call Matthew. He's the real deal.
