My husband and I have purchased several homes, over the past 30 years. Ernest Matkin, is by far, the best Realtor we have ever had. (and we have had some great ones) He truly cares, and is very efficient. Since we are a couple hours away, from the property we purchased; he stepped in for the walk through, home inspection, carpet cleaners, and the list goes on and on. I highly recommend Ernest!!
We first met Ernest upon recommendation of my brother and his wife. Ernest was actually representing the sellers when they bought a property. He made such an impression during their purchase that they referred him to us when we needed a realtor. In the beginning, he showed us several properties that we were interested in and never pushed or swayed us to buy. It took us a couple months to find a cabin that worked for us and Ernest was extremely patient. We told Ernest it had been 30 years since we had made a real estate purchase and would be counting on him to assist us thru each step (AND HE DID). We live 300+ miles away in New Mexico and Ernest was always there for the appraiser, inspector, and anyone else that needed access. He was always quick to point out any problems that he thought need to be addressed. Looking back on the process from beginning to end Ernest was always on top of everything. We never had to ask for information because it was usually provided to us prior to needing it. Ernest even scheduled a couple contractors to come over and fix some small issues that needed attention before we moved in. We would highly recommend him to anyone needing a realtor.
We recently purchased a vacation in Heber, AZ. Ernest Matkin was our realtor and provided excellent service. From the initial purchase offer to the closing, he was there to walk us through the buying process. He was there for the inspections, appraisal, and necessary repairs and final inspection at closing. We would highly recommend him to anyone wishing to purchase or sell a home.

My home had been on the market for ten months and I said to myself this is long enough, I need to change to a new agent. I had been hearing so many good things about Ernest Matkin that I decided to meet with him. I was so impressed not only with his knowledge but also with what all he would be doing to market my property and maintain every detail about it. Well, I am pleased to say that in less than two weeks he had a contract and the entire process went smoothly. Ernest was on top of all the details and kept me informed at all times.Ernest was always available to me by phone. I highly recommend him for real estate needs because he will make the process painless and at all times I felt trust and confidence in his work and his abilities.
I found Ernest to be the best Real Estate agent I have worked with. He earns his commission. I found him to be honest, professional, has great communication skills, and was aggressive in meeting my goals.
He stayed on top of the transaction from start to end, informing me of all significant developments. Also,he stayed in touch on a periodic basis while the house was being shown, to discuss status and any changes required.
He had a great circle of local construction workers for small to large repairs. He leveraged his relationships to have repairs done in a timely manner. He even met with the repair people numerous times and provided me an updated status.
Ernest is 100% professional from listing to close. His steady presence during the entire process builds confidence that everything will be done right and timely. His market knowledge of the area is right-on, resulting in a listing with a fair price, that generated a reasonable offer and closed with no issues. His ability to guide clients through the complex process is outstanding.
Ernest helped me through an extremely difficult sale. Despite everything the buyers threw at me he remained the very image of calm and control. I would say that Ernest is by far the most caring and helpful agent that I have ever worked with -- and I have bought and sold many, many properties. I would recommend him to anyone and feel confident that he would be always as thoroughly professional as he was with me.
Ernest was our realtor when our house in Overgaard was sold. He was a true professional and he proved over and over again that you could depend on him.to tell you the truth whenever we asked him questions. He worked hard to sell our property and when it was sold, he was there every step of the way to make sure everything went smoothly. We heartedly recommend Ernest as a hard working, trusty and efficient realtor.
Selling our home with Ernest Matkin was a fantastic experience. His integrity, knowledge of each step of the sales process, and commitment to serving us was exemplary. He paid attention to every detail from start to finish and "made the deal happen" in a timely and equitable manner. It was a pleasure doing business with Ernest.
We listed our home with two other local realtors for a long period of time each with no success. Ernest had our home sold in just a matter of weeks. He is knowledgeable, professional, honest, hard-working and a pleasure to do business with. We would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone looking for a realtor in the Heber-Overgaard area.
Ernest is a local expert and has extensive knowledge of the properties as he has probably been in just about every home that's ever been listed in Heber Overgaard. Great advice, works with top Title agencies and lenders. He helped us find and purchase the perfect home in Heber July 2012. I've recommended Ernest several times and will continue to do so in the future.
Ernest was very thorough and precise. He was always in contact with us and kept us updated in the progress of the house. He was very quick in getting our house on the market. He came by frequently and checked on the ads that he placed in front of our house. I can't say enough about how pleased we were with Ernest. He made us feel like we were the only ones he was selling a house for. We highly recommend Ernest for selling and I'm sure for buying if you are looking for a home or selling one!
Ernest Matkin was the most effective, attentive, and professional real estate agent that I have dealt with, not only in Arizona, but also in Los Angeles as well. He helped me through a most difficult situation, understood my needs, paid attention to the details, and told me the truth. I will always be grateful to him. Every other agent I dealt with in the area were "spinners".
We Have not found our perfect second home yet but Ernest is by far the best buyers agent that we have ever worked with in the White Mountains. He has provided us with all the tools and information a buyer needs to make an educated decision on home buying. I think most of all he provides you a realistic appraisal of what a particular property is really worth in todays market, not just trying to sell a sellers opportunistic listing price. Being from out of the area this is a very important service to us and much appreciated. He also keeps a tight focus on what you want in a property and does not bother you with showings that don't conform to your criteria
I was contacted by Ernest after a failure to sell my home by another realtor. He assured me that he would give his all in preparing and then marketing my home. He came through as he stated. He marketed my home in ways other realtors never thought of. If you didn't see the advertising for my home then you weren't in the market for a new home. Go with Ernest and you won't regret it.
Ernest was actively and proactively involved in every aspect of the selling process. His local knowledge was vital to the success of this sell. We would whole-heartedly recommend Ernest.
I called Ernest on a holiday, to look at a property and he met us in 5 minutes. I fell in love with the property he was very helpful with us getting this. We live in the valley and he personally helped with everything in the mountains. I would highly recommend Ernest to anyone, he helped make my dreams of a place in the mountains come true!!
Ernest was fantastic and made it painless when we purchased a property. Not only did he help close the deal, but went through the home inspection with me and pointed out things that should be addressed. He's a local guy up here, so he's available pretty much anytime during business hours. It was a pleasure doing business with him.
I have purchased several properties in the area, Ernest was by far the best realtor I have worked with. He was very knowledgeable and went out of his way to ensure we had the best possible experience. I have already told my friends and family to use him if the need arises. I would highly recommend Ernest for all your real estate needs.
Ernest handled our land sale in a timely, professional manner, finding a buyer quickly and arranging the closing all within 60 days. He was very responsive and was able to answer our questions immediately in most cases. He is knowledgeable of the Heber/Overgaard area. Based on our experience we would certainly recommend Ernest to other potential clients
Ernest was critical in the sale of our home. He did an excellent job marketing the property and assisting us in the negotiations. We live in the Valley, so we were not able to be onsite throughout the process, but we were not concerned, we trusted Ernest completely! He does everything he says he will do and his local resources are invaluable. I would highly recommend Ernest for all your real estate needs - you will be glad you did!
