Real Estate Solutions from an Investor Who Gets It

About Matt McCormick

My real estate journey began in 2004 when I started selling homes and bought my first property in Tacoma at just 20 years old. Within nine months, the market shifted and the home I had just purchased was worth half of what I borrowed. Instead of walking away, I got creative—remodeling the basement to add bedrooms and renting them out to stay afloat. That experience taught me to think strategically and shaped the way I approach real estate today.

During the mortgage crisis, I began working with investors to acquire distressed, bank-owned properties. I pitched banks on the idea of cleaning and renovating homes before listing them, which led to a successful partnership and hundreds of completed projects across the Pacific Northwest. After renovating properties for banks I eventually moved into renovating my own properties and have renovated everything from single family portfolios damaged during hurricane Katrina to distressed multifamily buildings in the Pacific Northwest. That journey eventually led me to help scale a tech-driven private equity fund in the Bay Area, where I led the acquisitions & dispositions of over 1,000 homes per month across the Midwest.

Today, I’ve shifted my focus to building my own portfolio. I’m an investor and landlord, actively buying and selling real estate across Washington State and the Midwest. I work directly with homeowners who are considering selling, offering flexible, no-pressure solutions backed by decades of hands-on experience. Whether you're looking to sell a property as-is, explore your options, or simply understand what your property might be worth, I’m here to help you make a confident, informed decision.

Why Sell To Me?

I buy homes in as-is condition, meaning you don’t need to do any repairs, cleaning, or prep. I pay cash, cover closing costs, and can close on your timeline—whether that’s in 10 days or several months. I specialize in helping long-time owners, landlords, and families navigate tough transitions or minimize tax exposure through creative solutions. I’m not just an investor—I’m also a licensed real estate agent who’s here to help you explore the best option for your situation.

  • Single-family homes and portfolios, duplexes, and small multifamily buildings

  • Properties in any condition — even with deferred maintenance or tenant issues

Testimonials

  • Working with Matt to sell our South Hill home was great. We got excellent advice regarding the merit of various improvements and fixes presale and received continuous updates on the showings and buyer feedback. He worked with us to develop various contingency plans which weren't ultimately needed and it was comforting to be on top of the process the whole time. He's really experienced with a lot of insight into every step of the transaction, and was a super negotiator on our behalf. We sold within five weeks and couldn't be more satisfied with the services Matt provided.

  • If you are looking for an awesome realtor in the Spokane area or Washington state, look no further!! Matt is your guy!! I will start off by saying that I have had some pretty frustrating experiences with realtors in the past, to the point where I dread having to call one when I am house hunting. One of my biggest issues was their pushiness when I wasn't certain or ready. From day one, I could tell that working with Matt was going to be different. He was genuine and approachable, focused more on offering help and answering any questions that arose. I ran into Matt while he was showing another couple a house I was interested in on the South Hill and asked if I could tour that house and another one nearby later the same day. He was very accommodating and made both happen.

  • Working with Matt to buy our new house and sell our old house was an absolute pleasure! He brings a wealth of knowledge and experience as a long-time real estate agent and was outstanding at every aspect. Communication was top-notch and constant (including daily recaps), response time was immediate about everything, advice was absolutely spot-on, and knowledge of houses, the market, and buyers/sellers/agents was invaluable. He's a detail-oriented person and a kind human being. We could not have asked for an easier experience and we'd recommend Matt to anyone looking to buy or sell a house in our neighborhood (or elsewhere)!

  • To say that Matt was helpful in our house hunt and recent purchase is an understatement. In addition to his knowledge about the real estate market, he has a breadth of knowledge and expertise in all things related (e.g., septic design, construction, county utilities, etc.). Simply, without Matt, we would not have closed on our first home yesterday. His patience, determination, creativity, and knowledge enabled us to make a dream a reality, even at times when it seemed impossible. Matt is without question, the most dedicated, knowledgeable, thorough, and unflappable agent out there! He made the home buying experience so much more enjoyable and was such a delight to work with. We give Matt the highest possible recommendation (20 stars!) and truly cannot say enough positive things about him and his practice!

  • I feel so grateful to have had Matt McCormick as my representative in my recent home purchase process. He was truly everything one would want in a realtor. His negotiation skills helped me to get $30k off the asking price, the sellers paid closing costs, and they also completed about $5k worth of repairs. All because Matt understood the market value of the home and the area, intrinsically. His knowledge of the market and of the home purchasing process were paramount to me ending up with the right house at the right price. He was always available by phone, email, or text to help facilitate a smooth transaction. He's also a genuinely nice person. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

  • Matt was everything we were looking for in an agent. He was always available, very knowledgeable and a good listener. He put together excellent home options for us, actually LISTENING to what we were asking for. Once we found the home we wanted to make an offer on, Matt made the process easy and was an excellent negotiator regarding our final price for the home. We were extremely happy with Matt and his service!

    ~ Trisha A.

  • Matt McCormick served us very well in our search for our new home! He really did a great job of listening to our list of important items, and filtered out the homes that did not meet our needs and did not waste our time. Each house he presented was a good fit, and was really thorough in searching the MLS daily, and finding the new listings. I really appreciated the way that he listened to Jill's input, as we have had bad experiences in the past with agents not really hearing what we wanted. He was very respectful of our budget, and did a fantastic job in helping us negotiate our purchase. He even stayed in daily contact with us by text and email while travelling abroad! Fantastic service, hard worker, and genuinely nice guy. We would give him six stars if possible! Thank you again Matt!

    ~ Bob & Jill G.

  • Matt helped us locate and purchase a home. He was always accommodating, honest, and insightful. He found a house in the best neighborhood. He is well versed in local and state regulations and was an extremely effective negotiator through a difficult negotiation. We couldn't be happier and highly recommend him.
