I received a call from him, he was interested in knowing what I was looking for, what kind of price range I had, and promptly started the process of assisting me. I didn't get much chance to experience his property showmanship, but that was because I had taken the reins and was giving him numerous properties that I would like to see/hear more about. Mr. Matthews was timely at getting me to see the properties that I wanted to- even if the listing realtor was being obtuse. He was also knowledgeable about any issues I might encounter, especially when dealing with older homes. I would highly recommend Brian Matthews if you are looking to purchase a home in the Norfolk area. ”
“Mr. Matthews was an angel sent from God to assist my wife and I with our house buying experience. He is many things in one. He is the head coach for your team and he plays to win. He is a great adviser. And for me it was fatherly advise since my father is not around. I really appreciated that. And finally he is a friend you can trust and confide in. So he has moved from a friend of the family to just family. I'm go to share something with you that he once said to me."When you make your mortgage payment. You want to make that payment on a house you like and want. One of the worst things in life is making a mortgage payment on a house that you do not want to be in." Now was that fatherly advice or what. We thank you so much Mr.Matthews and we will see you at our house warming gathering. ”

I would recommend Brian to anyone, any day”
“Mr. Matthews is quick to respond, very personable, honest, and overall just a great guy. I found him on Zillow and he responded to my request immediately, and followed up the next day (on my terms I might add). Once we talked I felt like I was talking to a mentor and friend that wanted to do the best for me, as opposed to someone who was only interested in a sale. I look forward to having Brian in my corner when the time comes for me and mine to purchase a home, and I know he will fill us full of knowledge in the process.”

“We have had a fantastic experience with Brian. He has been honest, professional, friendly, and helpful. We could not have asked for a better agent to help us buy our first home. ”
“I've had one meeting with Brian Matthews, and there were four things that really struck me: His knowledge of the industry His professionalism His willingness to share and educate His honesty If you are in the market for a home, I would not hesitate to give him my highest recommendations. ”
“Brian Matthews is experienced in all facets of real-estate to include Fannie may/home path properties which truly helped me to navigate the different obstacles I had in my search. His knowledge and advice's are extremely valuable. He never pushed me to bid as high as I could; and he did not rush me to get into a deal - to the contrary, he encouraged me to look at all pros and cons, would point to any things that could possibly be an issue, inconvenience or even big problem. Brian takes good care of his customers, not only helping them to get a house, but extending his care beyond: recommending contractors and home inspectors, reminding of getting flood insurance simply put he offered great moral support! Brian is extremely precise, meticulous and sharp when working on the offer. Even though I realized that I was not his only customers, I never suffered from the lack of his attention. He would spend as much time with me as needed to go over every sentence in the offer and disclosures to make sure that I was crystal clear about everything. Overall I was very impressed with Brian Matthews, his style of work, knowledge and skill as a realtor. Im recommending Brian to my friends and colleagues who will be looking for a house in the near future, and will be glad to work with him again someday. ”
“Brian was very very helpful and knowledgeable. Although we are not purchasing a home at the moment, we will be using him when we do. His amount of respect was amazing & we appreciate all the help! ”
“Brian was very nice, understanding and honest. If we asked a question and he did not have an answer, he immediately found an answer and either emailed us or called us with the follow up. Brian kept us informed as to the status of the home as to whether or not it was still available for rent. Brian followed up to see if we were still interested in renting and continued to work with us until we made a decision. ”
“Brian, how would I describe Brian. I will begin with he is the utmost professional, very personable, knowledgeable and responsive to the needs of my Father and empathetic to my concerns for my Father's welfare. Brian always made himself available if I had questions, he went above and beyond as an agent. Since I no longer live locally, Brian took the initiative to visit a property I questioned and took over 60 pictures that told a much different story about the property. When I did have the time to visit one of the properties, he took his time and we walked through the property, sat down and discussed all the options. And the CMA was soup to nuts. It contained all the information I needed and some I did not think to ask about. What was really personable and appreciative was my birthday - Brian remembered and gave me a birthday card! Yes, Brian is someone I will definitely recommend - he goes above and beyond. ”
“Technically I met Brian by mistake. Best mistake in a long time. I had initially requested some information and a tour of a condo, which he then showed up perfectly on time. I though he represented the builder only, but he was there to represent us. He answered a lot of questions we had about the entire buying process. This is my first home. We laid out a plan, a schedule, and proceeded forward. Within days, he showed us more locations which we just LOVE, LOVE, LOOOVVVEEEDD. These were properties we never would have found without him. Overall his patience, and expertise was what won us over. We felt so comfortable asking him any questions we had, like he was a friend of the family helping us out. I hope that if anyone else is searching for a property to buy, sale, rent, they have the opportunity of working with Brian. ”
“Brian is absolutely amazing. Knowledgeable and an amazing ability to cover all aspects of buying a home. From the second we sat down to talk to him about a prospective house, we KNEW he had our best interests at heart. Brian is an amazing realtor and person, and after a couple hours it felt as if we were just hanging out with an old friend. Being very uneducated in this area Brian sat us down and explained everything in a way that was very easy to understand. I have no doubt that anyone who ever has the opportunity to be represented by Brian will be more then satisfied.”
“We have just started the process to buy our first home, and having Mr. Brian Matthews as our agent make us feel that we have started with a firm step. On our first meeting, he took the time to, patiently, explain all the buying process in a clear and simple way. (He also brought us supportive information: a magazine, book, and handouts that had been very useful). As of today, couple of meetings had being held and we are glad we are going thru this process not only with an experienced person, but with a trustful, honest and a caring gentleman that shows the best interest at heart for us. That's what we were looking for. ”
“Hands down, the best real estate agent that I have dealt with. He is thoughtful, knowledgeable and respectful. He is a true people person and has an extremely bright future. If I would ever be in need of another agent, I would never have to look anywhere else. I would recommend Brian to anyone either looking to buy or rent. You won't be disappointed! ”
“Brian Matthews has incredible knowledge in the real estate industry. He is helping me find and hopefully purchase a property in the Virginia Beach area. Also, he assisted me with finding financial funding and always has my best interest in mind. He will always answer and/or follow up a call or message. A very reliable real estate professional. I would definitely be a repeat customer and highly recommend him to other home buyers or sellers. Thank you Zillow for linking me with Brian. Sincerely, Agnes”

As new home buyers, my husband and I are very glad that friends had recommended him. We will continue to recommend him to our friends for years to come! ”

Initially, the selling agent seemed to be leaning towards another offer, but Brian convinced her that if the offers were similar we were the better choice. He knew quite a bit about the loan process, and was able to aid us throughout it. He even suggested the bank we used, and discussed differences in mortgage rates. Brian was able to set up our offer entirely online. He also created availability to meet up with me when I decided to visit the area, without too much notice.

Brian is helping my husband and I find an income property. We've been looking in the VA Beach area and have an offer out at the moment. Hopefully I can update is review if/when we close but so far so good. Brian is very knowledgeable and super friendly, never pushy and only wants the best for his clients. We don't feel pressured to do anything and he keeps us in the loop about everything which I like very much." ”

From the evening we met him, Brian has been straight forward and, while offering advice, never made us feel pressured or that we were not in control of the situation.

He was genuinely interested in me, learning about my situation and taught me a great deal about the buying process and also showed me that I was not ready to buy a home. He gave me recommendations on steps to take to get ready. I would recommend anyone seriously contemplating buying a home, especially if it is your first time or do not understand the process, contact Brian.

“"It's only been a few weeks since I first started working with Brian but I've been very impressed thus far. He responds very quickly and has been on top of every step of the process. With very minimal notice he was able to line-up 6 houses for us to view over the course of a morning and really helped us work through questions and really begin to hone in on what we want in our next home. Although we've just started the process I do highly recommend Brian for his knowledge, experience, and overall exceptional customer service." ”

“"My wife and I recently started our home search on Zillow and found a place that we love. We filled out a contact form and Brian's response was swift and professional. He was able to show us the property the very next day and was more than knowledgeable about the home, the area we were in, and about the process we would be taken through since it was our first time with a short sale. Brian has been nothing but helpful and transparent during our transaction and we would highly recommend him to anybody that we know that is looking for a new house to call home!"”
“"Mr. Matthews is a highly professional realtor extremely knowledgeable of the real estate market in the Virginia Beach, Va area. He worked diligently helping me to locate a property with property in my price range. He did this by setting up filters of the MLS that specifically identified properties meeting my requirements. He was very responsive in answering my many phone calls and promptly followed through in completing the myriad of paperwork required to make an offer and complete the contract. His efforts saved me valuable time in the successful purchase of my property. I highly recommend Mr. Matthews to anyone looking to purchase a property in Virginia Beach"”

“"Upon meeting us at the hotel, Brian sat down with my sister and myself and explained so many issues that we were unaware of but were very important. His knowledge was mind blowing and he spoke in layman terms that were easy to understand. He showed us several properties. He was engaging, informative and, quite frankly, very amusing. He treated us as people and not just two possible commissions. Immediately we could easily tell that Brian loved what he was doing. A super super nice person. If my sister and I do decide to move to Virginia Beach, Brian is the only realtor that we want to use. Perhaps he can also become one of the first people that we befriend in that great state.It was truly a pleasure to start our search with Brian"”
“"Brian was amazing. He met my brother and I and spent many hours with us. Not only was he knowledgeable about the real estate in Virginia Beach but very forthcoming about Virginia Beach, revealing both the positives and negatives. He is personable and energetic and I look forward to seeing more homes with him in the very near future. He made my short stay in Virginia Beach very memorable."”
“"When my wife and I first met Brian, we were very appreciative of his candor. Over time, we have found that in addition to his candor, he really knows what he is talking about. He has made the whole process of selling our home and finding a new one pretty seamless. Every one of our questions have been answered and through his knowledge, we feel that we are fully in charge of the process. Also, buying and selling a home is stressful, but his positive outlook has kept us from worrying needlessly. With all his experience, he has been able to tell us what is going to happen, so, there has been no surprises along the way. Lastly, we were very thankful of his patience as we searched for the house that we really wanted. We will, without hesitation, recommend him to any and all."”

Brian took a tremendous amount of time sorting through properties that fit our budget, needs and desired location. He was very patient with us during the entire process. He is extremely honest and pulls no punches- we loved that! If you are looking to purchase a home in the Virginia Beach area, I highly recommend working with Brian- you won't regret it! We look forward to working with him again in the future. Now if I can just get him to come pack up my house and move me I would give him 6 stars!!"”

We truly can never thank him enough!"”

Brian is a genuine, stand-up guy who will always tell you what you need to hear and not what you want to hear and that is what I needed with this experience so I am fortunate to have had him help me through this search. Thank you!"”

He has been extremely patient in not only navigating us through the home buying process but educating us along the way. I still cant believe how lucky we are to have found such a wonderful professional. He didnt throw a bunch of houses at us to look at wasting our time and his. Brian listened to what we were looking for and focused on the location that we knew we wanted to be in well as the type of home we hoped to find.

“"Without a doubt the best decision we made was choosing Brian as our agent. We were selling a house in California and buying here in Virginia and could not believe the difference in agents. Brian won "Hands Down" in every category. He made a tough situation much easier. After looking in the Virginia Beach area for a few weeks decided to check out Williamsburg, 50 miles away. Called Brian and 15 minutes later were on the road. He was always quick to respond to all questions and has the knowledge and contacts to close in 11 days, yes 11 days. If we move again, I can guarantee that we will call Brian to be our agent."”
“"Brian was an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the entire home buying process. My wife and I were first-time home buyers and Brian was always there to answer our questions and never pushed us to hurry or make decisions we weren't comfortable with. Brian listened to our needs and actually cared that we found a house that we loved and WITHIN the price range we asked for. 10/10 would absolutely work with Brian again because we had such a great experience."”
“"Brian is an excellent realtor and great person. He really presented us with the information we needed to get the house we wanted. He was a real person and let us be real with him. He let us wander the house ourselves like we wanted, rather than the "showing" of the stereotypical realtor. Excellent. 10/10 would recommend."”

By listening he brought us to homes which were a possibility and didn't waste our time.Brian was VERY responsive Brian was an honest person with integrity and heart. By the completion we felt we could trust Brian because of his actions and deeds. Brian is just a really good guy."”

His knowledge of the area was superb, he gave us amazing guidance on everything, and always told it like it was. If anything was even more impressive than all of the above, it was his communication and responsiveness.I don't think Brian ever stops working. He's available almost any hour of the day or night, answers questions promptly via phone, text or email. He was able to help us find a wonderful Townhouse and we should be closing this week. Thanks so much for all of your help!"”

“"From the moment Brian called me i knew this was gonna be special. This is my first time buying a home, and my wife and myself had no clue what we were doing. Off the jump Brian was like a superhero whose super power is helping people like me buy a home. Brian didn't push other homes on me but focused on getting me into the one that i wanted to look at. I inquired about the house on Thursday, it had been on the market for a matter of hours, and we set up a meeting for the next day to go look at it. We walked through the house and Brian was very honest and up front about not only the house and what he thought but about the process as well. When we told him that this was the one, he made sure that we were able to get a offer in immediately. The offer was put in on Saturday with Brian advising me about the best way ahead following his expert advice our offer was accepted the next day. From this point forward i was on the phone with Brian constantly. He always took my calls and never told me to wait. His masterful guidance and adept enthusiasm helped my wife and me close on our first house in exactly 15 days. During the home inspection Brian and myself scoured the house for any discrepancies while the inspector did his work. After the inspection Brian made sure that if it needed to be fixed it the seller was fixing it. Brian doesn't play games if you are serious about buying a house or you want some advice as your dipping you feet in call Brian you cant go wrong. I don't know about all those fancy jingles with Kris Weaver or ill sell your house in 30 days Lonnie Bush but remember this name BRIAN MATTHEWS! Here is the bottom line if you want a realtor that will make sure that you are happy then you will love finding a house with Brian Matthews!"”

“"Brian has been more than helpful since day 1. I never expected so much help looking at the ins and outs of a house. And I certainly did not expect to find the perfect property my first time out. He helped us scope out good neighborhoods, and point out major/minor faults in property and the surrounding area that I would never have noticed on my own. Best possible guy for a first time buyer, or anybody in fact. I thought I liked a house and he said "it is a nice one, but let's look at a few more. Sometimes you'll love a property and feel like this is the one. Until you walk up to and into a property and immediately drop everything else and say this is it" I didn't know how true that would be until it happened exactly like that. And at the end of the deal, he managed to snag us up a Lowes gift card to finish off the missing appliances. Great guy, great personality, recommend for anybody and everybody. Especially if you are military. He knows everything and has all of the connections you will ever need to properly use your VA loan."”
“"Brian wan an excellent agent. He was available around the clock and responded promptly to our calls and texts. When we found a house weliked, he stayed up late to work on the contract. He was on it and we got the house we wanted! I felt like I had made a friend by the time it was over. Hes got a big heart. I would definitely use him again and refer him to someone else."”
“"He was great, very patient with me. We he kept me in the loop with everything, was very informative on how the process worked. As a first time home buyer he made the process painless. I would recommend Brian to anyone."”

“"We live in N.Y. and decided to invest in Virginia Beach. We called several real estate firms in the area. The only agent that called backwas Brian Mathews, We explained our needs and expectations and he immediately gave us access to his MLS and made himself available to us 24 hrs a day. He advised us where to invest and what areas he felt were up and coming. We have been working with Brianfor less than 3 weeks and have already closed on our first property and in contract on a second. He has made the process a pleasure from contract to closing. He was there and provided us with all the contacts we needed to get the property going. His work ethic and professionalism is unsurpassed. I'm glad the other firms never called back."”
“"Brian has definitely proven he knows the housing market. He was able to provide insight outside of just purchasing a home, i.e. investmentopportunities, where to buy furniture at great discount prices. He was instantly responsive to text msgs and phone calls any time of day, even at 5am. This is an agent who works extremely hard and fast to make sure you get the house you want in a bull market.Thank you so much, Brian! Wishing you the very best!- ARTEROs"”

“"Being in the military when my wife and I were looking for a home in another state prior to moving it was overwhelming. I contacted Brian Mathews who I never met before and he helped my wife and I find our home. I was skeptical on whether to buy or rent and he had our best interest in mind the entire time. Brian went to multiple homes taking hundreds and I am not kidding hundreds of pictures of each home helping our decision. We finally made a choice and purchased our home. After my wife and I bought our home in 2016 through Brian Mathews I thought our time was done. We stayed in contact and became friends during my tour in Va. When it was time to sell it was an easy choice to have Brian sell our home when we received orders back to Jacksonville. Well after listing our home Brian got us a full price offer in 3 days. The process was smooth and effortless. When I had to come back to Va to check out of my Command he even let me stay at his house because ours was sold. Brian is committed to to his clients in my case friend. I 100% recommend Brian Mathews as a Realtor to anyone looking for someone committed to their best interest.
