Matt was exremely helpful to us. With his help we were able to find a home within our budget that we were happy with. He worked hard negotiating on our behalf and communicated with us explaining what we had to do each step of the way. He answered all of our questions and explained things in a clear and understandable way. We were able to find a house and close on it within a short period of time. He was friendly and took the time to get to know us. Based on our experience working with Matt we would highly recommend him to help you find the home you are looking for!

It’s hard to even put into words how skilled Matt is at his job. Entering into this process for the first time in 22 years was quite intimidating. From the very beginning of the process he put our minds at ease that he would guide us through each step and he totally lived up to that promise. His knowledge, experience and patience were far above any expectations that we could have had. Not sure we could have gotten through this without you, thanks so much Matt. The rating system for this site needs to be changed because a mere 5 stars isn’t enough for someone of this caliber! Don’t hesitate for a second if you are lucky enough to have Matt on your team.

Matt did a superior job as a realtor. Not only was he able to find a home that is located in the right neighborhood with the right qualifications at the right price, but was able to do so in an expedient manner. His experience with flipping homes, construction practices, contract knowledge, and network of related professionals proved to be indispensable assets. My only regret is that I did not happen upon his services sooner.

Matt is an outstanding agent and a great guy. We met him as a selling agent on a house about two years ago. Coming from a renovation background his attention to detail while walking through s property was very helpful. As a first time buyer and dealing a market that was absolutely ridiculous Matt helped guide us through to find the right property after years of looking. Matt’s professionalism was top notch and he went above and beyond, even giving local recommendations for contractors. I highly recommend him as an agent.

This wasn’t my first time purchasing a house, but it was the first time I have ever seen a realtor so involved and knowledgeable in every aspect. Matt is very personable, makes himself available day or night. His knowledge from lending to construction have made possibilities endless. He oversees the entire process never leaving your side. I highly recommend Matt.

This was my first house I purchased. Matt made this journey so smooth. I felt so comfortable and assured that I was making the right decision. I have moved in my house and finally took a deep breath and realized what a great real estate agent. I had to get me where I am today. If you want professional service, I suggest that you use Matt.

Like all our previous acquisitions together, Mr. Heikkinen was exceptional in every way. His lengthy and diverse background in all things real estate, especially investments, continues to pay off for our private equity group. He identifies potential long term rentals that are optimal money-makers and negotiates on our behalf quite successfully. I look forward to the next one Matt finds and handles for us!

Matt is a GREAT agent and person. I called him many times to look at multiple houses, until we found the right one for my family. Without hesitation he was would say we can look at it the day I called. Some houses he said this may not be right, (because of the work needed done). To me he seemed to have our best interest at heart. Would work with him again if need to, But I found the house with pretty much everything I wanted. So with that said hopefully I wont need him in the future. But would highly recommend him. Thanks again Matt

The Realtor You Choose Does Make A Difference!!!! We were (& still are) thrilled with Matt Heikkinen in the NEO/WPA area. With Matt we sold for more than we expected vs having tried with a diff realtor who botched a much lower offer in a 2.5 month debacle. Not only did Matt guide our process in a realistic, friendly, fair, and efficient manner, he answered our Qs quickly, was pro-active with our offers, and sharp about the nuaunces of the deals.... yes offers and deals.... Matt brought us 4 offers before the end of the first week we were signed with him !!! I especially love that Matt understands that we don't get the full process, so he clears out the noise and lets us focus on just the important elements. Matt's background with both residential and commercial real estate gives his clients a double advantage. I am so so so glad we connected with Matt. Thank you Matt!
