Ratings & Reviews

David M

Dave not only had the insight into the market but he understood what we needed to do as a seller to make our home market ready.
With his extensive network we were fielding showing requests as soon as the home was ready and not 8 hours into the first full day on the market the home was sold. Dave really did an exceptional job all the way through the selling process. He went above and beyond what we expected and for that we give him the highest recommendation.

The Dave Mattes Team is very knowledgeable and highly professional in the field!
I admire Mel Mattes' dedication to her job, her punctuality and excellent customer service. She is sympathetic and understanding of her clients' expectations. She supports and advocates for your needs. Thank you, Mel, and the team for your unwavering service to your clients!

Dave is awesome!
This is our second home we sold using Dave. And just like the first time, his expertise and knowledge got it done and got it done quick! I hope to never move again, but if we do, we will definitely be using Dave!

Sammy P

Dave did excellent work in marketing and selling our house in less than a month.
Dave and the whole team were constantly keeping us up to speed at what was happening with our listing. They gave us helpful tips to help us better market our home, and also helped in making our move easier by giving us suggested resources for all stages of our transition. We would highly recommend Dave to help sell your home.

I've know Dave for almost 17 years and he is at the top of his game when it comes to covering mortgages and selling/purchasing of homes.
He is very good at what he does. I purchased my home with him. Dave's like that friend that's always there for you, even if you hadn't talked in years. I always know that If I need anything, he was there!! I hadn't seen Dave in about 14 years but when it was time to sell my mother's estate, I knew he was the only one that could help my family with this big decision. He really made everything go smoothly for us. Hard working and always keep me posted on what's going on.

Dave and his team are incredible.
I went from thinking about selling my house to being at back to back settlements in just under 2 months. Dave's team has an expert for whatever your needs are. Kira was wonderful, quick to respond to all my questions and made me feel more like a friend than a client. I never felt any pressure on either the selling or buying side. Dave and Kira gave me all in the information and recommendations they could, while making it clear it was my decision. Experience the confidence a great team can give you, choose Dave Mattes!

Zach R

Dave was helpful, knowledgeable, and guided me through the selling process from start to finish.
His team handled a huge move like this with ease. I’ll always work with him and his team.

Chittaru R

We’ve used Dave and his group both when we bought and sold our house and I couldn’t recommend him and his group enough.
He was always available to us when we had any questions or concerns. He is very knowledgeable and he’s a really nice guy. He went above and beyond for us and if we ever move back to the area he will be our first call.

Evan D

Was buying my first home and Jackie was amazing!
Made the normally stressful process very seamless and easy! She always made herself available to answer any questions I had and she went over all the confusing paperwork with me to make sure I understood exactly what was going on! If you’re considering buying a house I would highly recommend Jackie!

Edward N

Dave was a great seller's agent.
His analysis of the market was much more thorough and data-based than other agents who wanted my listing. It was challenging to find comps due to some unique characteristics of my property and Dave was able to find the right pricing to account for positive and negative factors as compared to other properties in the area. Our pricing was spot-on and the property sold quickly after listing. Always prompt, courteous and positive to work with. His team is fantastic and the handoffs between various team members was seamless. I would highly recommend to any seller in the area who wants to work with the best!

Tom L

Dave was our first realtor when we moved to Berks County, although that search did not work out, a few years later we tried again and Melanie helped us buy our first house.
Now, 7 years later we decided to move on, and Dave was there again to facilitate our sale. There was no other choice for us after 15 years together. We always stayed in contact via all possible methods, including randomly running into each other at local venues. I could not recommend a realtor more highly than Dave & Melanie Mattes in Berks County.

With so many realtors to choose from, a good realtor can be hard to find.
And, whether you are buying or selling, choosing the right realtor could make all the difference in the world. In leaving this review, I hope to illuminate a "diamond in the rough" for the whole world to see. You can rest assured that you have chosen the right realtor in Dave Mattes. He helped me to sell, not one, but two homes during my time of greatest need. I started out in a really tough predicament, and during the process, many new, unforeseen obstacles arose, but he and his team helped me to overcome them all. Honestly, I don't think that I could have made it through the process without him. Not only did he help me to sell both homes faster than expected, but he also helped me to sell them for the desired asking prices.
If you are looking for an excellent realtor, then look no further. You have just found the diamond in the rough.

Carrie L

We recommend The Dave Mattes Team without hesitation.
Our land has been on and off the market for a few years and Dave initiated the call that now is the time. He was so right!! Dave has a nice balance of being easy-going, no pressure and getting things done in a timely way. His experience, availability (even on days off), and energy are impressive. Dave along with Erika were patient and quickly responded to all our questions. We appreciate that he recommended an attorney who was also amazing in offering his time. Thank you Dave and Erika for making this a stress-free sale for us.

Darren R

Dave Mattes and his team helped me sell my father's house, and not too long after that I was able to sell my home with their help.
Both homes sold in a matter of days with multiple offers, and in both cases the offer exceeded the asking price. Kira was assigned the task of helping us with the purchase of our future home. She was always available to answer any questions that we had about the closing process. She was able to get us the home that we wanted at the price that we were comfortable with. I would highly recommend the Dave Mattes team with the selling or with the buying of your future forever home. They are very professional and they really do make the whole process less stressful. Thanks again for everything.

Herbert T

We first met Dave when he was referred to help us with a tax appeal, he did all the paperwork for us and asked nothing in return.
Fast forward to 2021 and we contacted Dave to assist in selling our home in Berks county. Dave listed our house on a Thursday and conducted an open house that Saturday that resulted in an offer we accepted that night. Dave and his team were available for our questions and concerns almost anytime of the day or night and responded very quickly. We highly recommend Dave and his team for anyone that is looking for a great real estate agent.

Nicholas R

Dave was very thorough from start to finish.
With a crazy market, and things changing day by day, Dave did a good job at setting an appropriate price and walking me through the process from start to finish. Dave was able to sell my house in 3 days.

Dian G

Dave is a fantastic realtor.
I couldn't have asked for anyone better. He sold a house for me in his area while I live out of state. He found someone for minor repairs, cleaning and even shoveling the snow all for reasonable costs. He even represented us at the closing to save us cost and time of flying there. He communicates well and in a time manner.

Ingrid H

I met Dave Mattes thru a professional networking group and learned right away that customer service and relationships are extremely important to Dave.
When the time came for me and my family to move I contacted Dave to discuss. I was immediately impressed as he got back to me the same day (on a Sunday) and made an appointment later in the week. When we met he had a market analysis for my home along with statistics of other homes in the area. He recommended a price he felt we should list it at based upon the market value and had all the cost and charges all broken down for me. Everything was up front and I felt comfortable with our discussion. We listed my home and it was under contract with in 3 weeks. Dave was in Italy at the time still communicating with me about my house while on vacation. Dave and his team have stayed in touch even after my home sold. He has invited me and my family to several client events that he holds during the year. This shows Dave is committed to his clients!

Omega C

David is an outstanding realtor always going the extra-mile to ensure a smooth and quick real estate transaction.
He executed the sale of our home with integrity, professionalism, and effectiveness; qualities rarely found these days.

Kirsten C

Dave was so great to work with.
The house sold quickly and he was there to help me through the whole process. He knew what work would need to be done and set much of it up himself. All of the showings were while I was out of town and he and his team kept me posted on what was happening. Closing was super easy. Can't recommend Dave and his team enough. They're great.

Stephanie C

Dave is a very knowledgeable associate.
He has kept in touch over the years since helping us to buy our home; that we couldn't think of any other realtor we would rather use than him to sell our house. He made the process seamless and enjoyable. Very responsive to all my messages at anytime. It was a true pleasure to work with him and I would recommend his services to everyone!

Jean R and Edward Jr

Dave was so helpful.

Donna V

The Dave Mattes team was fantastic from start to finish.
Our realtor was Melanie and she did a fantastic job of showing us houses that were within our budget and within our needs. She listened to everything that we had asked for her to look for for us. She was extremely responsive anytime I had a question no matter what I could call her and she was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Not only was she helpful in helping to find my forever home, but she was very knowledgeable and gave me ideas of interior decorating. She helped negotiate a fantastic price. I highly recommend anybody who is looking for their home whether it be the first time or the last time I would definitely get a hold of the Dave Mattes team and ask for Melanie Mattes you will not be disappointed.

Darlene L

Dave Mattes is not only efficient at his job, in addition, he has a kind heart.
Dave did a wonderful job of selling my deceased Father-in-Laws home in Kempton, PA. It was a bitter sweet moment for my Hubby, Chris to have to let go of his childhood home. Dave was honest with every step of the process. He and his team kept a fluid communication throughout this chapter of our lives. Thank you to Dave and his team for caring to do their best!
