Matt and the team were great in our pursuit for a family home to live in. We had some very specific criteria, and they were attentive and excellent at searching for properties before they came to market and after (as well as having an eye for detail when inspecting prospective homes).★★★★★ a week ago
Winning our home … More at auction with an advocate like Matt was worth the price alone in the savings made there (and I’m sure it would’ve been the same if we had bought by private sale). Having Matt doing the bidding took away the nerves for us while Matt’s bidding increments and timing were done to perfection.
The after-purchase service was also excellent as Matt and the team assisted us with some complexities in settlement and ensuring our move in was smooth as well. I highly recommend using them if you’re looking to buy a property to live in as well as for investment. You won’t regret it! -

Matt and the team were absolutely amazing during my experience buying my first home. Their expertise, guidance and contacts were invaluable and absolutely worth every cent. During the 2 months they worked with me, they worked tirelessly, doing the work and due diligence I know I didn’t have the time, … More energy or experience to do myself. I would 100% recommend Abode Advocacy Group for any home buyer.★★★★★ in the last week

We really appreciated having Matt and his team in our corner while we were making decisions about property. The information given was always clear and helpful, and through the total journey they have always been there to assist us. We are far from experts in the field so the deep realestate knowledge … More that they bring, along with a willingness to share what they know, gave us a lot of confidence along the way. Fast access to legal and building assessment was also something we could not have achieved on our own, and the thorough process that they go through to assess the property gave us the confidence we needed to make our decisions. I would highly recommend Abode Advocacy Group for any property purchase★★★★★ a week ago

After 18 months+ searching for our family home with 2 kids under 2 in tow and being under bidder multiple times, we reached out to Matt and Dion for help. I can't thank them enough for their help in securing our abode. Despite engaging them close to the Christmas period they still worked throughout … More on our brief and in 51 days got us the house for us for the price we were after. Their ability to open up the market was a game changer and our abode was purchased off market. Their guidance and delivery throughout the negotiation process was brilliant. Although we haven't settled yet, we have significant comfort in the due diligence Abode Advocacy Group performed and having Matt and Dion in our corner 🙂★★★★★ 3 months ago

After working with multiple Vendor advocates through out my career, I have to say Matt, Dion and the team are up there with the absolute best in the industry. Not only did Matt call a terrific auction, at all stages they made sure their client was informed. The experience of the team at Abode definitely … More attributed to making sure there client got the best price.★★★★★ 3 months ago
Would definitely recommend them to any one that needs some extra help buying or selling. -
Min Jun Chang (Wilson)
I can't thank Matt and his team enough. I used to live in Japan and Korea where home buyers are treated like 'customers'. Not the case down under due to chronic supply shortage - I was more like a job applicant. Every seemingly decent property had multiple parties competing. Seller's … More agents often wouldn't even return my calls when the property seems very popular. They take full advantage of the upper hand. I was once encouraged to submit an offer without any condition for building inspection, only to find out the property had 3 major defects. Matt negotiated with them to squeeze in an inspection and saved me a fortune and years of headache. He seems to know when someone is telling the truth or just working very hard(maybe a bit too hard) for the seller. I didn't have to deal with any sales tactics or myriads of unnecessary information that doesn't shed any light but only cause confusion as Matt's team has neatly kept it out of the whole process. I will recommend Abode Advocacy to anyone I care about.★★★★★ 2 months ago

Working with Matt and Dion has been a great experience. We had a very short timeline between selling and requiring to purchase. After a positive referral, we caught up with Matt and Dion who started working based off our needs and wants in a new house.★★★★★ 5 months ago
Having a team in your corner when dealing with … More many different selling agents was a big relief for us.
When we finally found the house we wanted, Matt and Dions help was crucial in ensuring we were successful.
While we haven't settled yet, we know we won't buy again without speaking to them first. -

Great communication with the whole team.★★★★★ 3 months ago
Matt & Dion gave us every opportunity to assist in getting their client the best outcome.
Would highly recommend to future buyers in the market for their insights & also vendors who are needing a bit more guidance through the process.
Matt was able to assist us to target properties that would suit our family and also fit within our budget.
After over a year of searching, and then missing out on securing a property 4 times, my husband & I decided to enlist the services of Matt to assist in purchasing our home. We were frustrated and exhausted after losing out to other buyers on homes. Matt was able to assist us to target properties that would suit our family and also fit within our budget. He was able to manage and take control of the whole purchasing process from start to finish, enabling us to feel confident and take the stress and worry out of negotiating the sale. Matt was confident and clear with his communication and kept us informed every step of the way. His experience and knowledge of the industry is evident in his ability to close a sale quickly and hassle free. We would not hesitate to recommend Matt’s services, as he saved us stress, time and money in the long run, securing us our dream home and under our budget.

Matt was extremely helpful during the process of selling our home. We felt he was really on ‘our side’ and held our hand throughout the entire process.
Matt dealt with the agents and buyers which took a lot of the stress and pressure off us as vendors! All up Matt worked hard to achieve the best result for us and our needs. Highly recommend Matt’s advocacy services and will not hesitate to contact him again with all future property sales and purchases. Thanks again.

Matt was warm, polite, knowledgeable and very forthcoming with his advice.
Matt was recommended to our family after we experienced the nightmare of an unexpected delayed settlement 1 hour before the scheduled settlement time – after we had packed all of our belongings in the removalist truck! Matt was warm, polite, knowledgeable and very forthcoming with his advice. His many years of experience was evident and he gave us tangible ideas to put forward to our buyer, vendor and conveyancer. We successfully settled today and we are so grateful to have had Matt to call on to point us in the right direction. I will certainly call on Matt & Abode Advocacy Group again in the future to seek advice on all things real estate.

Matt also assisted us is sourcing suitable options and the purchase of our new home. His experience in the market was evident as he liaised with estate agents to view and obtain the type of property we were after. We have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone requiring an advocate.

Matt always had our interests top of mind. He was able to guide us through every step of the way with his wealth of realestate experience and knowledge.
Matt had looked after the sale of our first home, and shortly after helped us secure and buy our present dream home. Matt always had our interests top of mind. He was able to guide us through every step of the way with his wealth of realestate experience and knowledge. We were right to trust in Matt’s exceptional communication and negotiation skills, as he indeed made the selling and buying process easier. Most recently, he helped my mother to downsize from her family home of more than 25 years, to a spectacular home on the Bellarine Peninsula. His real estate knowledge is second to none, he took the time to understand my mother’s needs and stayed in close contact with her the whole way through the process. I’m sure in the future when it is time for the next move, we will not hesitate engage Maty’s services again. He will continue to be part of our team.

Having Matt there during the auction helped us make informed decisions that led to us making an extra $22,000 from the sale.
A huge thank you to Matthew from Abode. Selling a house is a way bigger ordeal than I expected. It was quite a daunting and stressful task, but due to Matthews advice and negotiation skills the deal went through smoothly. Having Matthew there during the auction helped us make informed decisions that led to us making an extra $22,000 from the sale. This paid for his fee and with more profit on top. I would’ve have liked to think the agent had our best interest at heart but it didn’t seem like the case, where with Matthew there was no conflict of interest and he was 100% committed to my outcome. My only regret is we didn’t get Matthew and Abode at the start of the process. If you need expert advice and someone in your corner when selling your house, I highly recommend Matthew and the Abode group.

We highly value and appreciate Abode’s Extraordinary expertise in the real estate industry and negotiation skills.
As the first home buyer, we had not expected to get the purchase done within a short period of time until we got the support from Matthew and Dion. It was amazing and impressive that our purchase was done in just ONE week, during which Matthew heard our needs with caring minds, engaged all relevant parties extremely efficiently, addressed all our questions and concerns and achieved the excellent outcome for us. We highly value and appreciate his extraordinary expertise in real estate industry, negotiation skills and the professional manners which have made our purchase so informative, easy and pleasant. We are grateful and a big THANK YOU to Matthew and Dion.

The professionalism and service that Abode Advocacy Group provides is second to none. We didn’t have to worry about anything. They took care of it all. The house was on the market within two weeks and three weeks later we sold above the reserve at auction. Abode made selling our house a breeze. Highly recommend them. Thank you Matthew and Dion
