Philanthropic Involvement Donating his time, efforts, energy, money, love and, most importantly, faith is the guiding principle of Joshua's private and professional life. In addition to working with Habitat for Humanity, he has volunteered at an orphanage in Port-au-Pince, Haiti, and built homes, a school and a church in the outskirts of Oaxaca, Mexico.

What clients say about this agent....
Josh was easy to work with and very knowledgeable of the Real Estate Market. He listened to us and understood that we were at the age where our children were on their own and we wanted a smaller, more manageable piece of property close to our children. He actively looked for properties that may be suitable for us and made it easy for us to transition from our family home in Mass to our more suitable home for retirement in Maine. He promptly answered calls, emails, and texts and kept us informed about every development during the Purchase and Sale. His knowledge of New Hampshire and Maine real estate is invaluable.
My wife and I met with Josh Matthews early March of 2019 and we told him our needs and expectations for selling our home. We set up a date for later that month for an open house. Within two days after the open house we accepted an offer more than asking priceA Josh was easy to work with and always there when we had a question, and answered it in a timely fashion. This is not the case with all realtors, and I'm speaking from past knowledge. If you want a realitor that is engaged to his clients wants and needs, I would highly recommend Josh Matthews.
Joshua Matthews sold our home in Merrimack, NH and we couldnt have been happier with the experience. When we met, he laid out a clear plan to make the process as seamless as possible, then worked tirelessly to execute that plan to the letter. From staging our home, crafting the listing, the open house and navigating offers, Josh exceeded our expectations at every step of the way. We had a then 7 month old son and Josh worked around our crazy schedules, getting us multiple over asking price offers the night of the open house! We highly recommend Josh to anyone in need of a realtor.
We could not have asked for a better realtor than Joshua Matthews. He went above and beyond in meeting our expectations for selling our home and buying a new one. We feared the process would be overwhelming and stressful, but Joshua made the entire experience so seamless it was a pleasure. Because of his smart marketing strategy, we received multiple offers on our home and got much more than our asking price, so we were able to buy the home of our dreams! He was very responsive, answering any and all questions we had, and he made us feel like we were his only clients.
Joshua was referred to us by a close friend who could not say enough about how amazing and knowledgable his Realestate agent was. We were intrigued so we decided to give him a call. Joshua was prompt in making the time to do an initial assessment, he did his homework before showing up and after looking at our house gave us the assessment that was completely in alignment with what we were thinking after doing our own research. Joshua ensured that our house was market ready by providing a walk through from a professional "stager", who provided suggestions that created a blank slate for interested buyers. Josh came in when we were ready and took absolutely amazing, professional photos of our home and listed. We had an open house scheduled for Saturday and had 2 site unseen offers on Friday, the day before. The house was on the market for 2 days and we were in contract with a full price offer, with a backup full price offer. Nothing prevented Josh from being with us every step of the way right up to the closing. Six weeks after meeting Joshua for the first time, we were at our closing and I can honestly say I completely understand what my friend was talking about when he referred Josh to us.
I don't know if it was because he was just assigned to us, or what, but he really didn't put in much effort for us. When we needed to be at the property for any reason, he kinda just wandered around on the lawn looking at his phone. One time, he had to meet my brother and told him he was free all day. When he showed up, he was already anxious to leave, saying he had somewhere to be. But, the biggest problem, we were trying to buy a house that had belonged to our mother but had been foreclosed on. We told him this, and he said he would check with his legal department, because it could be an issue. A few days later, we met with him to sign papers, and he said legal assured him there would be no problem. 5 months and around $2,500 later, two weeks to closing, the seller terminated the contract. Josh didn't know why, but made us believe it was salvageable. All this after we had put our stuff into a storage unit and moved out of our apartment to stay with our dad for what we thought would be a few weeks. So, this man is a liar, and doesn't really put in much effort for his clients, blames them when he forgets details and in the end, abandons them if the sale gets messed up, leaving them essentially homeless.
It all started when Josh wrote a handwritten note and mailed it to us describing the local market and providing a ton of value when he didnt even know if we wanted to sell. Well we did and the rest was history. He first helped us find the perfect place to move to and next comes his magic. He did so much pre-marketing that we had 4 competing offers after the first open house. It was a fantastic experience he was always reachable however we wanted to communicate. We will be working with Josh for all of our real estate in the future!
To all those who may be considering buying or selling a house, I can tell you the agent makes all the difference. You need an agent who is honest, has integrity, hard working, and works in your best interest not just for the deal and their commissions. Sound too good be true? I have worked with some agents in the past that are nightmares or the agent with the listing don't care and aren't real. I fortunately have been blessed to find a couple, that are awesome and I can call friends. If you are in NH or in Maine near NH.... you need to Talk to Joshua Matthews. At Bean Group If you are further up in Maine, you need to talk with Phil Adams of Adams realistate. There are others out there, but these 2 I can attest are exceptional. Thank you both, as I am currently looking to buy and reflect on my various experience prior... I want to say thank you.
Joshua came highly recommended to us from some friends of ours and we couldn't have been happier with our experience! As first time home buyers without a clue of what we were doing or what to expect, Joshua patiently answered all of our questions without ever making us feel like a bother. In fact, the attention he gave us as well as his prompt reply to our questions made us feel as though we were his only clients! Joshua's expertise in the process of buying a home including home inspections, getting approved for mortgages, and completing the closing made us feel confident in his abilities to help us find our very first home. He took into consideration our wants and finances and never pressured us into making a purchase that we weren't one hundred percent comfortable with. Joshua gave us advice throughout the process that we greatly appreciated and respected. In the end, we were able to purchase our first home and are thrilled! If we ever sell our home and buy a new one, Joshua will be the first person we call.
Josh was extremely professional, always available and a great agent to sell your home and/or buy one. It took my husband and I a little longer than most, about a year, but he never gave up and actually became like family to us. If you need things done right the first time, Josh is the agent for you
