Facebook Pixel Matt Lawing | West & Woodall Real Estate

Creative Musician, Outdoor Rock Climbing Enthusiast, Open Minded Big Picture Guy, Marvel Universe Fanatic

I am from a small town in western NC called Maiden, and I moved to the Triangle to attend NC State and never left. I’m an active guy that enjoys being outdoors and playing music. When I’m not selling houses, you'll find me participating in bar trivia and birdwatching. I have previously worked in construction, and I still maintain a General Contractor's license, which I find comes in handy during the home buying and selling processes. I am excited to use my knowledge and skills to help you find the perfect home.

“Matt Lawing was an outstanding agent and we were lucky to work with him to sell our property. He understood the unique aspects of our older condo community, including what made it special and how to market our unit. We had a quick sale and closing and needed to move and sell some furniture before closing. He went above and beyond to help with that process. I can't think of anything that would have improved the experience. He made it all work seamlessly.”

“Matt recently helped us in our purchase of a home in Alamance County. Since we were a senior couple from hours away, his flexibility and patience were most appreciated during our 3 month search for a home. We could not have been more pleased with his communication, knowledge, and market insights. Thank you, Matt, for helping us find our dream home.”

“Matt is a true professional. He is honest, trust worthy and very reliable. He gives objective opinions that are bias free. His energy is palpable and he is detail oriented. His communication through the process was outstanding. He always kept me aware of what is happening and he responded to my email, texts and calls very promptly. My whole transaction lasted 2 months from beginning to end, and I could not be happier with his services. I strongly recommend him as an outstanding agent.”

“My Forest Oaks townhouse recently closed for 50k over the asking price after being on the market for only 4 days. This is in large part to the guidance, marketing, responsiveness, and follow-through of Matt Lawing. His suggestions for updating and staging were spot on. His references to the right service teams resulted in high-quality results, and timely completions. The marketing and advertising brought in multiple, qualified buyers. Matt was honest regarding expectations for showings and prepared me very well. Matt made himself available for questions and was extremely responsive, responsible, honest, and clear with his communication. This is a real estate professional on the precipice of enormous success, and he will be of incredible value to the Forest Oaks community. He leads with integrity, honesty, and experience. His demeanor puts people at ease and makes a potentially stressful, challenging environment, positive and pleasant. Without reservation, I highly recommend Matt professionally and personally”

“As a retired real estate professional from another State and also as retired lawyers we chose Matt Lawing because he understood the importance of communication. But, there were other factors as well. He is well met. He is timely. He listens. The company he is associated with is well known and reputable. He knew the market and could explain it to us. He appreciated and respected our timeline and our needs without pressure and always with professionalism. It is important for a Realtor to understand the contracting process and the legal nature of the documents and he does. It is important for a Realtor to appropriately market a property and he did. It is important for a Realtor to understand the varying personalities and abilities of each Seller or Buyer and Matt can do that. A real estate transaction is often the most important financial transaction in a person's life and it can be anxiety producing even for those who are not "first timers." Our experience with Matt is that he got that. Finally, although it is always nice to get a property closed - which Matt expertly did for us - sometimes the journey getting there is just as important so that everyone comes away feeling like a winner when the deal is done. For all the above reasons, we appreciated our experience with Matt and can highly recommend him.”

“Matt worked with me to buy my house. He was 100% available to me for any questions I had, to look at any properties I wanted to, and was an expert on the closing. It was a phenomenally easy experience. No matter what day or time I asked, he was there to meet me at the property. When the time came for me to jump on the property, he was there to advise me. We got the house and I couldn’t have been more pleased. Matt knows the market and that is a powerful asset. I highly recommend Matt to you for your home buying needs.”

Dena

“Matt assisted us with selling our house a few years ago. It was such a positive experience that we didn’t hesitate to call him when we decided to purchase a new home. Matt is extremely knowledgeable about the business and his experience as a contractor proved invaluable as we were looking at older homes. His honest evaluations were very appreciated. I would highly recommend Matt to anyone seeking an honest, knowledgeable, and personable realtor. Ten out of ten, for sure!”

Kelly D.

“Matt Lawing is an exceptional real estate agent! He demonstrates thorough knowledge of the real estate market and all the technical details of successfully completing real estate transactions.Our property was not “cookie cutter” and he did a great job of promoting our sale.He was always immediately responsive to our questions and kept us informed about showings and potential buyer feedback. He made us feel that we were always “top of mind”.Anyone would be fortunate to have him as agent in a real estate transaction.Matt’s video presentation of our property was very effective. Thanks Matt you’re the best!”

Chris N.

“Matt Lawing was our buyer agent for our new home. I cant thank Matt enough for the quality of service and all the help he offered during the buying process. Matt is extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of the buying experience.He was always prompt in replying to any questions . If you are looking for a real estate agent who will protect your interests at all times Matt is your man.”

Fredric B.

“As first-time homebuyers, we were prepared for an anxiety-inducing and long process but that could not have been further from our actual experience. Matt perfected the balance of providing advice and giving us space so we always felt confident and in control. His recommendations for partners (lenders, inspectors, lawyer) throughout the process also proved incredible and we felt like we were in good hands the entire time. Whether first-timers or seasoned buyers, we can’t recommend Matt enough. With his help, we have our dream home so we don’t plan on moving soon, but will certainly keep Matt and West & Woodall in mind should the need arise. ”

Jessie D.

“Our realtor Matt Lawing was fantastic! He was responsive, patient, knowledgeable, and a true advocate for us! Our home buying experience was seamless because of Matt. Highly recommend! You won’t find a better realtor!”

Crystal V.

“Matt Lawing, my West & Woodall agent, brought character, expertise, reason, good humor and good judgement to all aspects of the experience and to all of our interactions. I heartily recommend him and look forward to working with him in the future. I am a happy beneficiary of his thorough and comprehensive knowledge of the market, current conditions, and his job. I was satisfied with my stress free experience and the achievement of our goals. I have only delight, no reservations and appreciation for the many things he did in the process to make it easy, pleasant, and efficient for me”

Anna D.

“Matt was incredibly helpful, patient, and knowledgable throughout the entire process of looking for the right home for our growing family. He went above and beyond to make sure that we quickly had answers to all of our questions and was very knowledgeable regarding any of our questions that came up during the due diligence and closing process. This really made the purchasing of our home go as smooth as possible. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a home. He is more than just an agent, he has become a trusted family friend!”
