My career in Real Estate began after a number of years of sales and management in the food service industry. I started at Royal LePage Benchmark, which gave me the training and experience to be a professional realtor. In 2010 I started a team with Brad Van De Walle, at Re/Max Real Estate (Central) called The888SOLDTeam. Brad and I have become close friends, close business partners, and have the same drive and passion for our work. Our goal is to “Redefine Your Real Estate Experience”. We treat every client with the same level of care as our own family. Brad and I created the Greater YYC Group to demonstrate our team’s energy; we are transparent and authentic, who we are in real life is who we are in Real Estate; fun, passionate, and driven.

SELLING EXPERIENCE SELLING EXPERIENCE WITH INFILL HUB You have decided to sell your home. You’re anxious to start the process, but you really want to make sure you have the right team working to sell your home for all it’s worth. Before anything else, it is a good idea to sit down with a member from our team to clarify your motivations and draw up a basic time frame and detailed outline of the selling process. But first, there are a few questions you may need to ask yourself before listing your home. WHY SELL? Why do you want to sell your property? Do you plan on simply moving to a larger home or property, or do you plan on moving to another neighbourhood, school district, city or province? You might think your reasons are obvious, but it would be helpful for you to consider the implications of each option for your lifestyle, opportunities, and finances. Being clear about your intentions for selling will make it easier for the agent to determine the most appropriate option for your specified financial, lifestyle, and real estate goals. WHEN SHOULD I SELL? You should immediately establish your time frame for selling. For many sellers, it is an urgent matter, and for others, not so much. Obviously, serious sellers would like to sell as quickly as possible and for the most amount possible, however, it is good to know what the most effective plan of action is before listing your home. If you need to sell quickly, we can speed up the process by giving you a complete market analysis and action plan to obtain all of your goals. If there is no pressing need to sell immediately, you can sit down with us to thoroughly review the current market conditions and find the most favourable time to for you to sell.

Market Exposure - Infill Hub has a proven market presence; our Buyers know that we are the premier site for all stages of infill construction in Calgary because we are always reminding them! Through Social Media, our Buyers are able to watch progress videos done weekly by our sales team, receive Instagram updates and Facebook posts that showcase your homes. We also market the community you are building in to help buyers see the value of a location. The more exposure your projects get, the faster they’ll sell. Market Knowledge - Builders need to be aware of what’s listing and selling around them. Current listings and sales in the resale market by product type and price point should be continually analyzed. At Infill Hub this is part of what we do on a daily basis and as the experts in this field we work alongside you to not only build an exceptional product but help you build the most desirable home in the community. We have a team of experts dedicated to doing this analysis for you and helping you make the right choices during construction. We are committed to keeping you up to date on market climate and trends. MARKETING PLAN Our comprehensive marketing plan will get your home seen by thousands of motivated buyers. Ultimately, our goal is to get your home the most exposure necessary to highlight the best qualities of the home. THE RIGHT PRICE We’ll quickly put together a custom marketing plan with an effective price. A well priced home often generates competing offers and drives up the final sale value. Our market analysis takes into account the most actively searched prices and home values throughout your area, including expired listings and properties still on the market.

OUR MARKETING EFFECTIVE INTERNET MARKETING In addition, we’ll use the Internet and our innovative website to make your listing highly visible. With more than 80% of buyers checking the web first when looking for a home, this is a part of your marketing strategy that you can’t afford to miss. THE BEST DEAL When we list your home, we do so at no additional cost. When you start to get offers, we can represent you during the emotionally charged negotiating process and ensure that you get the best price, and favourable closing terms that are clearly spelled out. As your professional aides, we also oversee all paperwork related to the sale. OUR MARKETING PRODUCTS Advertising is important. Exposure is key. Having the right products not only helps define your home, but also helps highlight the great qualities of your home. However, great qualities cannot be highlighted in poor products. They go hand-in-hand. YARD SIGNS A great way to advertise the availability of your home to people with an interest in your neighborhood or those who are becoming acquainted with your community. A yard sign is the #1 way to show your home is for sale. The EXP Realty yard sign is one of the most trusted real estate symbols in Canada. BROKER TOURS & OPEN HOUSES The broker tour opens up your home to agents from other various firms. It is a great, most effective, and most convenient way to expose the great qualities of your home that may be otherwise missed and for other agents to bring their buyers in to see your property. We help show off your home by bringing the best out of your home. VIRTUAL TOURS & WEBSITES Creating a digital experience for home buyers on the local, national, and international market with personalized property specific websites. Property websites are one of the innovative ways the Infill Hub Group markets your property to its fullest. We believe it is important to use the resourceful tools necessary to give your home the exposure it needs and ultimately sell your property.

TESTIMONIALS WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING ABOUT US... Matthew came highly recommended by a family member who had used his services to purchase a home. He took extra care to analyze the current and past market to make sure our home was priced properly and that all the best features were highlighted and listed. He documented accurate measurements and took amazing photos to show the house to the best of its ability. Within hours of being on the market, we had numerous showings and a high level of interest. We received multiple offers within the first 24 hours and although the initial sale fell through due to unforeseen circumstances on the buyers end, within 2 days back on the market it was sold! Matthew’s friendly and caring approach made the entire process easy and painless. He worked around our family’s schedule and always placed our needs first. He was willing to help out wherever he could by making himself available for any questions and/or concerns we had no matter the time or offering help where needed. I would highly recommend Matthew to anyone who is planning on selling or buying a home. -Kyle and Danah Hey Brad and Matthew, We’re just sitting in the backyard, enjoying a nice wine with the fire-pit going and swinging in the hammock, and we want to say thanks. You guys rock. The whole experience of the purchase of a home and the selling of our house has been great. The brochure was fantastic, the photos great, the quick and ongoing communication is unmatched, and the service you provide can’t be compared to any other REALTOR®. We enjoyed the honesty and directness from both of you. You gained our trust and we do not just consider you our REALTOR® but a part of our family. Thanks for everything. -Darren & Diana
