"When it came to selling my home, I researched who would be the best real estate team, and I am so happy that I chose The Phipps Team! No other team comes close to the support they provide their clients. As I lived outside of the area, they provided me with suggestions to price the home right and even planted flowers to stage the curb appeal of my home. No realtor gets close to professional-level social media use, which includes customized videos, slide shows, reels, and posts that drove buyers to the open house. My home sold for well over asking with multiple offers in three days and closed in 21 days due to their incredible efforts." - Marcie Doll.

"We worked with Matt to find a home on the East side of Providence. He was very patient and helped us look at many homes over a six month period (Mostly during Covid) until we found the perfect place. He was extremely responsive and would proactively go on his own to scope out / send videos of new homes on the market. He was also extremely helpful in making sure we were positioned well once we were ready to put in an offer and was instrumental in helping us ensure our offer was accepted over multiple other offers that we were competing against." - Michela Stager

★★★★★
"Matt and the team at Phipps are the best. We found a property that was going to close fast. Matt was aggressive (in a good way) and made sure we got our best offer in quickly. He knew the market, he knew the seller's realtor and he got us the house we've always wanted. He is also is very patient with first time home buyers and was a trusted partner in what can be a confusing process. Matt is also soup to nuts: his recommendations for mortgage officers, lawyers, inspectors etc were great and spot on. We closed in less than a month because of his helped and enjoyed the champagne he gave us on the beach!" - Paul Tencher.

★★★★★
"Matt and Ron marketed and helped price our special waterfront property so the potential buyers who'd value it most would discover it. Matt kept a cool head shepherding the eventual buyers to a successful (above asking price) conclusion. Matt, as much as we loved the house and were sorry to move, you helped us get to Florida in time to create a home for our daughter and granddaughter when it was needed most. Thank you!" - Douglas Stein
