Testimonials

“I highly recommend Matt as a realtor. He was very knowledgeable and made the process of buying and selling a home pretty painless. I had a lot of questions and Matt was patient and explained everything clearly. There were no surprises and he really pushed at the end to make sure everything stayed on track. We went through 2 realtors before we found Matt and we had pretty high expectations. We are very happy with our new home and how the sale of my previous home went and appreciate everything Matt did to make this all
happen.”

“Matt has sold our last two houses and has always provided the help and insight needed to get our houses listed and sold. He is a tireless worker, always available for questions and suggestions and his knowledge of the real estate market insured that we listed our properties at a competitive, marketable price. He will spend the time with you as needed to keep your listing fresh and in front of prospective buyers at all times. You will have a friend in Matt during and after the sale and you will want to recommend him to anyone looking for a realtor to refer.”

“Matt is amazing in every way possible! Definitely helped my husband and I find the perfect home in a great neighborhood. We thought we would never find our home but Matt assured us to be patient and have faith and sure enough he was right. Very helpful...friendly and knowledgeable. Answered every question we had. There’s not enough words to explain how great of a guy he is! We thank him for everything and helping us through this journey. He wasn’t just our realtor but a friend! Treated us like family through and through! Awesome guy all around! Highly recommend Matt Lynch and the Russell Realty Family!”

“Matt did an excellent job from start to finish. Communicated clearly in every step of the way. We had not sold a home in almost 30 years and we were not totally clear how to proceed. Matt explained everything in easy terms to understand. Once we signed the contract with Matt, he was tenacious. We actually had two houses to sell with Matt. The first one we had an offer in about 2 weeks. The second house we had an offer in one day. Never doubted our decision to go with Matt. I would recommend him to everyone I know.”

“Matt Lynch is an excellent realtor and a great person to interact with. I worked with Matt to buy a house for my senior-citizen parents this past March (2016). Then, after we moved my parents into the new house, I worked with Matt to sell their old house the following August. Further, he did a great job working with me long distance. I live in Texas – 1,200 miles from northeast Ohio. I needed to rely on Matt to do a lot of legwork with my parents because I was not in Ohio for many of the steps in both transactions. He was great working with them, and they grew to like and trust him.

For the house that we bought, Matt did a thorough job of overseeing the paperwork and other requirements. He provided good advice during the negotiations. And, he did a lot of extra work showing my parents the house in my absence. He was very honest about all the houses we visited, even when his comments would motivate us to decide not to buy one. At no time did I get the impression we were being pushed or that he was in it only for the deal (and his commission).

For the sale of the old house, Matt was essential in dealing with a buyer who made endless demands and dragged the negotiation process on and on with what became entirely unreasonable requests. The house was a “fixer upper,” and we expected the negotiations to take unexpected twists and turns due to the poor condition of the place. Matt had experience flipping houses, so he was very familiar with the effort and expense it would take to fix up the house – which made it easy to determine whether the buyer’s demands were reasonable or not. Further, I have experience in the trades, and I was able to see that Matt always talked accurately about the work that needed to be done on the house. Ultimately we closed the deal with this buyer, but it took a lot of Matt’s time and effort to get us there.

Finally, Matt is a personable guy to work with. He is detailed oriented and knows the mechanics of real estate, but at the same time, he is easy to socialize with and fun to be around. As mentioned, he did a great job working with my parents, especially during times when I was not there. I will definitely refer friends and family to him when I hear of one of them needing a realtor.”

“THANKFULLY we met Matt Lynch during a house showing - Matt actually was the seller’s agent on the house we ended up buying. In what I would consider the biggest example of trust as a buyer, we signed Matt as our dual agent (he represented both the buyer and seller). His knowledge, honesty, and professionalism were second to none, so the choice was easy. He helped us navigate the complex, and at times frustrating, process of purchasing a home
with care and kindness.

As for responsiveness, Matt made it a point to respond to our inquiries (whether email, text, or frantic phone call) within an hour - as long as he wasn’t on a fire call. He took the time to explain (and sometimes re-explain) concepts as small or silly as they may have been.

We rated Matt as “good” for negotiation only because we did not get to see him negotiate a price for our purchase since he was our dual agent. However, throughout the negotiation process between us and the seller, Matt acted as the middleman and was nothing but professional and remained neutral.

We would absolutely recommend Matt Lynch to any first time (or veteran) home buyers and we will definitely use him again in the future!”

“Matt made my home search easy and enjoyable! His expert knowledge assisted me in ensuring I fully understood the risks and benefits of each home that interested me. I quickly found the perfect home for my family. We couldn’t be happier.”

“Adam is professional, trustworthy, and certainly goes beyond what I expected. Highly recommended.”

“I’m recommending Adam Bellinski with no qualifications whatsoever. For most people, buying and selling real estate are the biggest financial transactions they’ll face in their lifetimes. You want someone on your team that knows the process, someone that knows construction, someone that can read the market in any given area and someone that, when you are selling, can offer suggestions as to what can be done to improve your chances to make the sale. Adam consistently went over and above the call of duty and as a result, I was able to benefit in all of these areas and ultimately, had very successful transactions. Thanks Adam!”

“Adam was friendly, knowledgeable and always available. He helped us navigate through our home buying process and we are glad he was there to help us. Will strongly recommend him to any of my friends if and when they are looking to buy or sell a house.”

“Adam did a great job. We are first time homebuyers and Adam was great at giving us all the information we needed to make the best decision. He was honest and straightforward, which helped us alot in making sure we were looking at all the important items on a house. Overall just a great experience, cant imagine a smoother process.”

“We worked with Adam Bellinski to purchase our first home, and our experience couldn’t have been better. Adam educated us on the process, and he answered our numerous questions about owning a home, renovations, etc. He was always available to talk or text, and accommodated our schedules for viewing houses. He was honest about houses that had not been updated properly, which we loved, and ultimately helped us find our perfect first home. I would, and already have, recommend Adam to all of my friends and family!”

“Matt and Adam did a great job with the presentation of the home that we sold. We had our concerns considering that the house was almost 130 years old. From the moment that the home was put on the market we consistently had people requesting to view it. When the house sold, Matt and Adam did a great job of walking us through the process to finalize everything and continued to follow up after our move to ensure everything went as planned. I would HIGHLY recommend this team if you ever consider selling or purchasing a home.”

“We lucked into finding Adam when he sold us this house, and figured there’d be nobody better when it was time to sell. I’m sure glad we did as we closed on our house about 2 months after listing! Adam and Matt went above and beyond the call of duty. ”
