Tahoe Truckee Homes, Inc

Wanting to move to Truckee from the Bay Area, I asked friends who live in the area for advice. Without hesitation they referred me to Matt Hanson of Tahoe Truckee Homes. From the very first phone conversation with Matt, I knew I had found someone I could easily work with and trust. Rather than «sell me» on certain properties, Matt interviewed me to understand what I was looking for and educated me about the neighborhoods so that I knew where to concentrate my search. In person, Matt drove me through the possible neighborhoods and showed me many properties that met my criteria. The more we looked at properties the more he (and I) understood what I was looking for to the point where if I asked him about a property I had seen on the web, he would frankly tell me whether or not it was worth my time to see it. For example, I saw a beautiful place advertised on the web. When I asked Matt about it, he told me that I probably wouldn’t like the neighborhood. Undeterred I drove by the property myself. He was exactly right, the beautiful new place was in the middle of a neighborhood in which I wouldn’t have felt at home. After that, I followed his lead and we found a house that more than met my needs. He walked me through the negotiation process and assured me that we’d settle on a fair price. Although more than what I had originally budgeted, I closed on a house that was more than what I could have hoped for in a fabulous neighborhood. Even better, the day I moved in, the value of the house was more than what I had paid. His service didn’t end there. He recommended local inspectors, handymen, cleaners, window washers, window covering people and more. He’s very generous with his time and care, shoveling a foot and a half of snow off my driveway the day I moved in, lending me a shovel until I could buy my own and even delivered a gallon of gas when my car was delivered almost empty. I not only found a great realtor, I found new friends in Matt, his wife Stephanie and their adorable dog Chai. Don’t look elsewhere, just give Matt a call and tell him I sent you.

Matt Hanson and his team at Tahoe Truckee Homes did it again! They have now managed almost every real estate transaction you can think of for us (from leasing to buying) — and have done so with admirable skill and great success. They continue to impress us every step of the way. Our most recent success was closing on our house, thanks so much to Matt! This could have been a tough deal due to outside parties out of our and Matt’s control. He took those challenges and turned them into opportunities while keeping our best interests at heart. What realtor do you know can do that?! Prior to us finding Truckee Tahoe Homes, we worked with other realtors we liked. But Matt broke the mold 10 times over. Our family and friends agree. They are exceptional! We would have never known how a complex delicate process could go smoothly and efficiently if it wasn’t for Matt and his team. They are absolutely amazing, truly! Matt says he takes his business personally. That clearly shows through his and his teams outstanding and unending efforts, knowledge, ethics, creative out of box thinking, attention, efficiency, honesty, trustworthiness, reliability, friendliness, efficacy, help, and going above and beyond principles. We could actually go on! Choosing Tahoe Truckee Homes was and continues to be in our very best interest, beyond our expectations (and those can be outrageous). If you want what’s in your best interest with ease and efficient progress while maintaining confidence in your agent and peace of mind, then call Matt Hanson. He honestly wants what’s in your best interest too — and he’ll achieve it with exemplary expertise and hard working (winning) skills. With the utmost gratitude for Matt and everyone at Tahoe Truckee Homes!

We used Matt to help us find a home in Truckee this Spring. Matt is very competent, patient and detail oriented. The most important thing to us was that Matt lives in the area, so he is very familiar with various neighborhoods, resources, contractors, etc, which was invaluable as we were out of town. He spent a lot of time with us, gave us valuable input on living in an area with snowfall, and is a well respected business person in the area.
