About Matt

Matt Thompson, REALTOR – Your Northern Colorado Real Estate Advisor

Persistence, Dedication, Honesty, Quality & Value would be the top 5 traits that have defined my real estate business for the last 4 years.

Everyday I look forward to the opportunity to indulge my passion for people and real estate with great home sellers and buyers.

I am a licensed active real estate broker in Northern Colorado specializing in residential real estate. I am actively working with buyers and sellers in Loveland, Fort Collins, Windsor, Johnstown, Timnath, Severance, Berthoud, Greeley, and Longmont.

Personal Data:

I was born and raised in Loveland, Colorado. I am married to an amazing woman who encourages me to do what I love everyday. We have two little boys and a little girl. I love to be outdoors. I enjoy road and mountain biking, camping, fishing, hunting, hiking,  snowboarding and, of course, attending all of the kid’s activities. I also enjoy home improvement projects and can be found working on the landscaping or painting a room in the house when time allows. We also have a little Boston Terrier who secretly believes she is a Lab – loves to play fetch.

Personal Resume – Matt Thompson

I absolutely believe in the Five Laws of Stratospheric Success as outlined in the book, The Go-Giver:

The Law of Value
Your true worth is determined by how much more you give in value than you take in payment.
The Law of Compensation
Your income is determined by how many people you serve and how well you serve them.
The Law of Influence
Your influence is determined by how abundantly you place other people’s interests first.
The Law of Authenticity
The most valuable gift you have to offer is yourself.
The Law of Receptivity
The key to effective giving is to stay open to receiving

My previous experience includes leading strategic and tactical marketing & sales campaigns for various real estate segments including single-family home developments, master-planned communities, mixed-use condominium complexes, and resort communities. I have a strong knowledge and extensive experience in real estate brand building and envisioning, strategic and tactical marketing plans, marketing and sales team integration, media strategy and negotiations, budgeting, forecasting, merchandising, product development, and public relations.

So what does that all mean to my clients? It means I thoroughly understand buyer’s and seller motivations, I see and understand changing demographics and real estate preferences, and I understand how real estate fits into the larger economic picture in Northern Colorado. It enables me to provide a higher level of service to my clients.
