Wow! The experience with Matthew Merrill was more than exceptional!!! He was available 24/7 even in his vacation time! That is why I choose him!!! I had been out there looking for quite awhile and had encounters with few people, but Matthew's responsiveness disarmed me to not look any further! I could not have had a better experience. I am truly convinced! He went miles to make sure that he got the best deal for me!!! Honestly, I don't think there is anyone better than Matthew. If there was a little issue coming from the seller, he dealt with it with my realtor without me even knowing and worrying... they made the problem go away and told me later with ease. I could tell more amazing-ness, but I'll stop to let others have their own experience!!! ;-) Thank you, Matthew!!!! I owe you one!

Matthew Merrill was outstanding. I've already referred him multiple times and cannot express in words the appreciation I have for his support along the way. His communication was constant, I was aware of every step and knew I could trust and rely on him to make the relationship seamless. Definitely felt like an experience and not a transaction.

As a first time home buyer i was anxious about the process. Matt was able to break down the steps and provide an explanation that i could understand and feel confident about. Matt's communication was absolutely amazing, being able to text a question, and have it answered quickly, was certainly beyond my expectation. Academy was quick and efficient, like an experienced team of professionals who really know what they are doing.

Matt did a fantastic job, he went above and beyond my expectations. We had a tight timeline to get things wrapped up before the Mortgage Lock expired, the team at Academy did a stellar job getting things prepped for a seamless transaction. Once the builder finally finished, it was simple. Thank you!
