BEYOND THE SALE
Relationships and Results
“Beyond the Sale” means paying attention. The heart of Sheri and Matt’s work doesn’t focus on the sale. Real estate, for them, is more than a simple transaction. From initial consultations and market analysis to making sure new houses feel like homes, Sheri and Matt go above and beyond by prioritizing relationships and their
clients’ long-term goals.
Sheri Butler and Matt Stapleton have been living and working on the Eastside for a combined 40 years. As longtime real estate professionals and as your neighbors, they take great pride in the work they do.
When you’re looking to buy or sell a home, you want someone behind you who knows the intricacies of the process and is willing to go above and beyond to ensure that you find your dream home. Over the years, Sheri and Matt have built relationships with elite trade professionals and have developed priceless practices, tools, and support systems that optimize the experience of home buying and selling. They are committed to assisting you beyond the sale through a process that is easy and hassle-free.
Sheri and Matt know that the decision to buy or sell your home is one of the most personal decisions you’ll make in life.
