Matt & Matt Shortlisted for Negotiator Awards 2025

We are excited to say that we have been shortlisted for the Negotiator Awards 2025, Regional Agency of the Year: Southeast, representing avocado property. This recognition reflects our people-first approach, hands-on service, and the results we achieve, helping homeowners feel supported throughout their selling journey.

We’re very excited to share some great news. Matt & Matt, Selling in Wokingham, has been shortlisted for the Negotiator Awards 2025, Regional Agency of the Year: Southeast, representing avocado property. 

Our Approach 
This is a huge honour for us and reflects the way we work. At Matt & Matt, we believe estate agency should be personal, trustworthy, and focused on people first. We don’t just list homes. We work closely with our clients from start to finish, offering guidance, support, and clear communication every step of the way. 

Results That Matter 
Over the past two years, we have achieved results that really make a difference for our clients. We sell 87% of the homes we list, compared to a local average of 68.7%. We provide a high-touch, low-volume service so that every client gets our full attention. We also use bespoke marketing and our #BeatThePortals™ campaigns to generate interest and reach the right buyers before homes even appear on major property portals. 

Putting People First 
But the numbers are only part of the story. Many of our clients come to us after disappointing experiences with other agents. We focus on making the selling process smooth, clear, and positive, ensuring every client feels supported and confident throughout their journey. Moments like these remind us why we do what we do, helping families move forward and making the experience as easy as possible. 

Why This Matters 
Being shortlisted for this award is not just about results. It is also a recognition of the way we work. Every client works directly with us from start to finish. There are no handovers and no missed messages, just clear, personal, hands-on support from two people who genuinely care. 
 
Looking Ahead 
We are proud to represent avocado property in the Regional Agency of the Year category and look forward to continuing to provide a service that is professional, friendly, and built on trust. This award shortlisting is exciting, but the real reward is the relationships we build and the difference we make for homeowners.

As an agent in the Tadley property market, I believe it is important to offer local homeowners a balanced and realistic view of both the Tadley and national property markets.
