Twenty years in the trades. Then a deliberate pivot.
Before commercial real estate, Matt spent twenty years in the Pile Drivers Union, the trade that puts the foundations under buildings, bridges, and waterfront infrastructure. Twenty years on jobsites, working alongside the contractors, engineers, and developers who shape what gets built, so sitework, construction and building questions are familiar ground.
How he reads a deal, in his words: “Depends on the asset type, but financials and leases will really tell me enough to get it underwritten.”
The move to commercial was deliberate. Most commercial brokerages are siloed by asset class, each broker locked into one lane, clients handed off the moment a deal touches a different vertical. Matt joined a non-siloed commercial team running tenant rep, landlord rep, investment sales, 1031s, NNN, owner-user purchases, and business brokerage across every asset class.
His specialty is California landlords stepping out of residential rentals into commercial through 1031 exchanges. The combination of a trades background, full-spectrum commercial experience, and a 45-day clock on the table is rare, and it is where most of his clients come from.
Services
- Tenant representation: finds and negotiates office, retail, industrial and medical space for businesses that lease.
- Landlord representation: leases vacant space and keeps the rent roll full for building owners.
- Investment sales: buys and sells income property, with the financials and leases underwritten before price.
- 1031 exchange strategy: plans the sale and the replacement search together so the 45-day clock never forces a weak purchase.
- NNN leased property: sources single-tenant net leased investments for owners who want less management.
- Development land: site selection, acquisition and sale of commercial land.
- Zoning, entitlement and land use: sorts out what a parcel can actually support before anyone commits.
- Owner-user property: helps businesses buy the building they operate from.
- Medical office: leasing and sales of clinical and professional space.
- Business brokerage: sale of operating businesses, backed by his IBBA business brokerage certification.
- Referral partnerships: residential agents bring Matt in on commercial deals and keep their client relationship.

Typical engagements by type
These show how each kind of assignment usually runs. They are illustrations, not specific closed transactions.
- Tenant representation. A typical Roseville office lease looks like this: a professional firm with a lease ending within the year tours a short list of buildings, compares total occupancy cost instead of asking rent alone, and negotiates improvements and renewal options before signing.
- Investment sale. A typical Sacramento investment sale looks like this: the owner of a small multi-tenant retail building pulls together actual operating statements and every lease, the rent roll is set against market rent, and the building is offered to local investors and exchange buyers.
- 1031 replacement. A typical Folsom 1031 replacement search looks like this: a longtime rental owner sells and wants less management, the target property type and price range are agreed before the sale closes, and a short list of NNN options is ready to identify in writing by day 45.
- Land. A typical El Dorado County land assignment looks like this: before an offer, zoning, utilities, access and any entitlement history are checked with the county, so the buyer knows what the parcel can support and how long approvals may take.
- Owner-user. A typical Rancho Cordova owner-user purchase looks like this: a contractor or light industrial business buys a small building with yard space, comparing the monthly cost of owning against the lease it replaces.
Four things Matt actually believes
The foothills are undervalued
Most brokers cover Sacramento city and stop. The real opportunity is flex industrial in secondary foothill markets, where the asset is quality with no deferred maintenance.
Multifamily is not passive income
The closest thing to truly passive is an absolute net lease with a long-term tenant.
Residential investors underestimate commercial financing
DSCR underwriting, the cap stack, balloon payments, and lender expectations are a completely different world from residential mortgages. It is the most common reason a 1031 fails at the back end.
Clean deals over creative ones
A preference for straightforward deals with clean math that close on time, over complicated structures with too many ways to fall apart.
