For nearly two decades, Matt Stone has transcended the role of a mere real estate broker – he has been a trusted advisor, innovator, and out-of-the-box thinker, consistently delivering exceptional results for his clients and agents. With over 18 years of experience and transactions exceeding $1.5 billion, Matt's expertise is unmatched. In 2023, Real Producers Magazine ranked him 2nd out of 8,000 agents in Charlotte, a testament to his remarkable results.

Matt's entrepreneurial journey began at the age of 13 when he started a car detailing business from the parking lot of his father's church. By 16, his cold calling efforts had landed him an internship with a custom homebuilder. At just 18, Matt became one of the youngest licensed real estate brokers ever in the Carolinas. In 2009, he founded his own brokerage and rental management business, quickly amassing a portfolio of over $100 million in properties under management. To expand his expertise, Matt obtained a general contractor’s license in 2014 and has since remodeled and built homes across the Carolinas, Florida, and Spain.

Matt provides a breadth of knowledge that is unmatched. From insights encompassing construction, budgeting, timelines, and local regulations to having personally renovated numerous properties and guided developers on projects of varying scales, Matt brings a unique perspective and vision to the table. As an investor himself, he possesses intimate knowledge of property pro formas, landlord-tenant law, use optimization, 1031 exchanges, and tax implications.

Today, Matt leads a powerhouse team of brokers, meticulously selected and trained to meet and uphold ‘The Stone Standard.’ The team’s success is achieved, in part, by leveraging cutting-edge technology and our bespoke property marketing program, “The Stone Selling System.” With nearly 1,000 five-star client reviews across various platforms, the team is steadfast in its mission to deliver an unparalleled client experience while preserving the personal touch.

In his free time, Matt pursues his passion for geography, history, and travel alongside his husband, Steed, and their dog, Oliver. Having visited 45 countries together, they share a love for boating and have sailed the Intracoastal Waterway, the Caribbean, and Croatia. In 2023, they realized a lifelong dream of obtaining a Golden Visa after the two made property investments in Barcelona, Spain.
