What Our Clients Are Saying
Maurice and Matt are truly exceptional people – caring, intelligent, savvy about the world of real estate and finance, with exceptional taste and an uncanny ability to ensure that all parts a real estate transaction go smoothly and benefit the person working with them.
I chose to work with Matt and Maurice because of their reputation and tremendous knowledge about the local market. They helped me through an incredibly complex process of selling a home I had lived in for 20 years and deeply loved. Their warmth and professionalism gave me great comfort. No matter how crazy or simple my questions were and no matter the topic — staging, inspections, mountains of paperwork, negotiation with potential buyers — they answered them with grace and thoughtfulness. Thanks to Matt and Maurice, my house sold for a price I wanted and it went to two lovely people who will make it their home. I will be forever grateful.
We value your high level of strategic thinking and attention to detail in addition to the ongoing communication you provide. Your skill at bringing these assets to the table has always given us the security of knowing what the plan is and how we are progressing towards the final goal. We have always felt we were your only clients despite the contrary.
My wife and I have purchased fifteen houses/properties over the past few decades despite having lived overseas where we could not purchase for nearly a decade. This has been the easiest and most hassle-free of any property we have purchased, nearly all of which were comparable cash deals. We appreciate your help, your hands-on expertise and assurance of the details. You worked diligently to expedite the handling of paperwork, the scheduling and arrangement of viewings and inspections, and were present for all of the critical steps leading to final sales and purchase. You know the markets, work to understand the properties and client interests, and have been responsive to all of our inquiries. Thank you for making this an easy transaction.

Matt and Maurice were and are absolutely incredible, great realtors and a wonderful people. The whole experience was perfection!
We've had two real estate transactions with Maurice and Matt, and both have been executed flawlessly. Maurice and Matt are true professionals and excellent communicators, making the entire process easy. They're creative, dependable, go the extra mile and always makes us feel like we're their only client.
We are ecstatic with how Matt and Maurice managed the sale of our home. Being in Napa, we had reservations with regards to hiring a Sonoma agent, however, Matt and Maurice were absolute professionals and quickly alleviated our fears. They were well informed about our market, accurately priced our home, and facilitated the entire process so well that we never worried about the outcome. We feel confident in referring Matt and Maurice to anyone in the market for selling or buying a home in the Bay Area!
I have bought and sold at least 10 homes, and I have never worked with real estate agents as perfect as Maurice and Matt. They provided service above and beyond my expectations. Even after the sale was complete they continued to be helpful with finding people to work with me on my home. I would use Maurice and Matt as my real estate agents again without question and I would recommend them with the highest compliments.
We looked for the perfect home in Sonoma County for about 2 years and had the good fortune of working with Matt Sevenau and Maurice Tegelaar during this time. We were not easy clients — we were very particular (picky) about the size of the home and the lot it sat on. We also had specific preferences about the utilities available, location, and the surrounding area, including road noise. Matt and Maurice paid great attention to all of our conditions and patiently selected properties that met those conditions, showing us dozens of properties over a 2 year period. They never got discouraged and were a delight to work with — always positive and pleasant. Matt's knowledge of the Sonoma area was impressive and a great help during our search and subsequent purchase. Thanks to them, we finally found our perfect home and moved in late July. Overall, Matt and Maurice were attentive, professional, responsive and most of all a pleasure to work with — we highly recommend them to anyone looking to purchase or sell a piece of property.
You coached us to prepare the home for sale and set the right price. Your communication was unmatched, as we always knew what was going on and what the next step would be. You stayed with us all the way through the close of escrow to provide daily updates or just plain moral support.
I have had the pleasure of working with Matt and Maurice, and have a great deal of respect for their attention to detail. They also possess a keen ability to discern the key aspects of a deal and how they support their client's interests. I have often turned to Matt and Maurice for their opinion on the investment potential of specific properties in our marketplace. As a retired CPA I can appreciate their intuitive and nuanced observations about a property's potential. However, they always bring the discussion back to the relevant issues that make the analysis insightful. The main attribute Matt and Maurice possess which makes for an effective agent is their diligence in making sure deadlines are met and their client's risk is mitigated.
Maurice and Matt were consummate professionals throughout the entire process. The representation of my property was of the highest caliber at all times. Complete and proactive, courteous and thoughtful are some of the adjectives used to describe their services.
Matt and Maurice treated us like family – always with our best interest at the forefront. Their honesty and integrity gave us confidence that we would be well represented throughout the process. In addition, their knowledge of the Sonoma real estate market and vast experience in remodeling and design helped us make the right decision to purchase a solid home that merely needed cosmetic upgrades. We got a great deal with their help! And aside from making sure we found a house we would love forever, they were able to provide reliable contacts for our home improvement projects and needs. We would absolutely recommend Matt and Maurice to anyone buying or selling a home in Sonoma’s wine country!
