“I met Matt in First Class on a flight from South America to Miami, where I could be staying for a few days before flying home to Los Angeles. We discovered that we frequent a lot of the same restaurants in Medellin, Colombia, where my second home is. I expressed interest in owning an oceanfront condo at the Ritz Carlton-Sunny Isles and Matt offered to help me find the right one. We looked at a few units in the building, and the one I wanted was priced a bit higher than what I wanted to spend, but Matt told me to let him on work on it, and so I did. After a few weeks of negotiations, Matt was able to get the Seller to commit to a price that I was comfortable with, we closed quickly, less than 30 days. I was very pleased and will hire Matt again in the future.” "My Wife and I had been looking online for an Oceanfront Penthouse on Miami Beach but could not find anything that suited our needs. We live in a Penthouse Apartment in New York overlooking Central Park, so we like a view that really wows us, and we are very particular about interiors, floor plans, and space. We were referred to Matt by a very close friend who suggested we speak with him. I did not want to hire a Broker because I didn’t think one could find what we really wanted. To my surprise, Matt found an amazing 2-story Penthouse on the beach that had everything we wanted. Because of my work schedule, I was not able to view the property in-person, and my Wife was traveling and could attend the showing either. Matt did the showing with us both via FaceTime and we both felt very comfortable. We went straight to contract the next day, completed the transaction long-distance, and were very happy with the space when we arrived for the first time. Matt met us in the Lobby, took us to the Apartment, and even set up a VIP Dinner for us at Sexy Fish Miami that evening. He took very good care of us every step of the way and we were very satisfied with his work."

“I live in Mexico City, and owned a condo at Park Grove, in Coconut Grove that I wanted to sell because I had purchased a larger condo to meet the needs of my growing family. I found Matt on social media, and we scheduled a meeting for the next week. Matt provided a very detailed analysis of the market in Park Grove, and overall, along with his plans for marketing and his recommendation for pricing. My unit presented a very nuanced assignment, since it was in the most popular line in the building, but on a low floor. Matt assured me that if I followed his advice on pricing, he could get it sold, and he did. He even helped me to close out a permit for remodeling that had been left open for years, and which I did not know about. We closed early, and for a great price. This was the fifth transaction Matt has handled for me, and I will continue to work with him.”"I listed my Ritz Carlton Residences condo with a Broker. She rarely showed my condo, so after a couple of months, I decided to make a change. Someone suggested that I speak to Matt Van Wie. I set up a meeting with Matt over Zoom, since I live in Europe. Matt was very thorough at the meeting, providing a lot of data about the Real Estate market in Miami, as well as the market at the Ritz Carlton, and a detailed plan about how he would market my property and find someone for it. I listed the property with Matt. He organized a nice Launch Event, which had a big turnout, and produced a very professional Property Tour Video. He showed the condo several times, and always provided updates and feedback to me. Then he contacted me to let me know he had a client who was ready to take the condo at a price that I was very happy with. He handled the entire process from start to finish, from paperwork to closing. I was very pleased with how he handled everything, especially with me being overseas. I would work with Matt again."

“Matt came recommended to us by a trusted source, and we brought him in for an interview. He showed us examples of other units that he has sold at Park Grove, and examples of how he promotes his listings. We interviewed several Brokers, and felt most comfortable with Matt. We also loved the fact that he is also an Attorney and has more expertise than the average Broker. Matt brought us a Buyer in two weeks. There were some challenges during the inspection, but Matt brought in the right team of experts to get it resolved to the Buyers’ satisfaction, and we were able to close fast-just three weeks after going to contract. We highly recommend working with Matt!"My Husband and I decided to sell our Waterfront Home in Pompano Beach, Florida. We were nervous because it was an older home, and a lot of other homes in the neighborhood were for-sale. We had worked with Matt in the past and decided to give him the assignment. Matt got our home onto the market very quickly and brought a lot of potential Buyers through the door in the first 3 weeks. We were under-contract with a Buyer in just 28 days, and although some issues arose from the Inspection, Matt was able to successfully negotiate a resolution, and we closed on time."

We found Matt online and emailed him. He responded within minutes. We set up a phone call, discussed our needs, lifestyle, and budget, and he began sending us homes. We flew down 4 different times, each time thinking we had found the right fit. But each time we flew back feeling like it wasn’t 100% what we wanted. I was concerned that Matt would get tired of us, and maybe think that we were not serious, but he did not. He kept sending us properties. We finally saw one we absolutely loved and flew down (again). This time, we knew it was the right home. Matt took care of the paperwork, and even resolved a few disputes we had with the Seller leading up to closing. He also took us to the country club and helped us set up our membership. We closed, moved down full time, and have been very happy with our new home in Boca."

“I live in New York City, and my Wife and I decided we wanted a condo on the beach in Miami. We had a very specific wish-list. We wanted a Penthouse, right on the beach, and we needed a certain amount of square footage, and a view that we loved. We were referred to Matt by a close friend in New York. We had looked at everything online and didn’t think a Broker would be able to find us what we really wanted. To our surprise, Matt found us a two-story oceanfront Penthouse in Miami Beach that had everything we wanted. I could not attend the showing in person, because of a work obligation, and my Wife was traveling, so Matt showed the unit to us via Facetime. He was very detailed, answered all our questions, and we went to contract the next morning and closed long distance. We were a bit nervous when we arrived, since we had closed sight-unseen, but were very happy upon seeing the unit for the first time in person. Matt even set up a VIP dinner for us that evening at a nice restaurant in Miami. Since then, we have closed other transactions with Matt, and we will continue working with him.”"I live in Mexico, and I purchased a condo at Park Grove from the Developer in 2018. Matt reached out to me and told me he had a Buyer for my apartment. I was not considering selling and told him I would only sell if he could bring me a certain price. Although nothing had sold yet for the price I wanted, Matt brought it to me and we closed early, on all cash terms. It was a seamless process and Matt handled the Inspection and Walkthrough for me, since I live out of the country. If I ever need to sell another one of my properties, I will use Matt."

“My Husband and I decided to sell our house of 25 years and move into a condo since our kids had moved out, and it was just the two of us. We really liked Park Grove, in Coconut Grove. We found Matt online, and started talking by text, which lead to a phone call, which lead to an appointment to see units in the building. Matt showed us a 2 Bedroom at Park Grove that was just the right size, and we loved the layout, and large balcony. We were concerned about the price, as it was a bit more than we wanted to spend, but Matt was able to negotiate a price that we are very comfortable with, and we took it. He helped us with the application process, and we even closed and moved in early. It was a great experience!”
