Buying and/or selling a home can be one of the most nerve-racking and anxiety riddled undertakings of a lifetime, but it certainly DOES NOT have to be! Having had such a negative experience myself helped inspire me to transition my 15 year career in Customer Service & Management into Real Estate. As a full-time agent, I pride myself on becoming you and your family's dedicated liaison and guide throughout the process from start-to-finish, someone whom I'd wished had helped me in years passed. My goal is to empower my clients through education and expert analysis to make the most well-informed choices in this booming Northwest Arkansas market.
I moved to Northwest Arkansas 9 years ago while relocating for a former employer. I fell in love with this area almost immediately, and soon after did the same with my now wife, Amanda. She is an elementary teacher in Fayetteville where we live, and we absolutely love raising our boys here. When we are not in the trenches with clients or kids... we love to cook together as a family, play every sport known to man (or boys), take our two pups hiking on our amazing trails, or simply crash out on the couch & stream movies while catching up on some much needed rest!
Do not hesitate to reach out with any and all questions. I consider our team at Better Homes & Gardens Real Estate Journey to be the very best in the area, and we would love to help you in any way we can.

What clients say about this agent....
Matthew was great to work with both selling our house and buying another. You will not find a realtor that works as hard for his clients as Matthew. He is also great at communication.
Matthew did an outstanding Job assisting us with the purchase of our new home in the selling of our old home. Matthew is very friendly, responsive and helped us through the entire process. He also really knows his stuff. I will forever, recommend him to friends and family, and whoever is looking to buy a home or sell their home.
Based on Zillows report regarding the number of homes/ properties Matthew had sold during the past year and on the reviews posted, Matthew was the first on my list of realtors that I called in regards to selling my house. I didnt feel the need to call anyone else after speaking with him. Matthew is: A go getter Prompt and timely Does what he says he will do Updated me promptly Very knowledgeable about the market Professional and experienced Thank you Matthew for all your hard work.
Matthew provided the perfect balance of information and guidance that we needed to be successful in buying a house in this challenging market. Matthew was able to help us identify potential houses and helped us understand the pros and cons of each option. But the most extraordinary skill that Matthew brought to our team was his ability to structure a deal and then negotiate offers and counteroffers in a way that helped us get what we believe was the best possible deal we could have gotten. We are very grateful to Matthew for his efforts to help us find a home.
Very competent and knowledgeable broker. We felt in very good hands when working with Matt. I would recommend him easily for selling a house in the Fayetteville and northwest Arkansas.
I am happy to be asked to provide a review for Matthew Bastian. Matthew was just awesome. He spent extra time looking for exactly the type of property I was looking for, and within the cost range that I provided him. He then expertly navigated the negotiations with the sellers and got me even better deal than I thought possible. He communicated with me every step of the process, from the original offer; a couple of "counters"; inspection process; and closing details. I had so many questions, but Matthew took the time to listen and then provide me with the correct answers. At any time that I wanted to go in a different direction, he provided the opportunity, as well as professional guidance. I was so happy with his customer service and professionalism that I ended up doing more transactions with him. Already, he is helping me plan a sale of a rental for next year and the subsequent purchase of yet another house. Although the houses in all of these transactions were in NW Arkansas, they were actually spread out through four different cities: Farmington, Rogers, Centertown, and Bella Vista. Matthew was remarkable on his knowledge and expertise in all of these cities. I heartily endorse him and encourage anyone wanting to buy or sell to check include Matthew in their transaction. I promise you will be happy.
I recently worked with Matthew on purchasing my first home, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience! From start to finish, Matthew was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and attentive. He understood exactly what I was looking for and went above and beyond to find the perfect home for me. His deep knowledge of the Bentonville/Centerton area was invaluable, and he guided me through every step of the buying process with ease and confidence. I highly recommend Matthew to anyone looking for a top-notch realtor who truly cares about his clients. He really made my house purchase experience a positive and stress free journey.
Matthew recently helped us sell our property in Northwest Arkansas. After speaking to other realtors, we considered selling it on ourselves . After meeting with Matthew, we were instantly impressed with his sharp knowledge of real estate, his experience and previous sales. After listing, we had multiple offers and Matthew helped us navigate through them and we ended up with a great price and great buyers that will care for the place as we did. Ours was a unique property, and Matthew helped us sort out all of the hiccups along the way. We're so thankful for Matthews' help and glad we did not take this on ourselves.
Matthew did an outstanding job and he is available whenever I have any question throughout the process - From the home search to the closing. He did a wonderful job and it helped us to soothe our home search, negotiations, inspection, closing - all to a wonderful experience.
Working with Matthew was amazing! As first time buyers we didnt have a clue as to what we were doing. Matthew made the entire process so simple and stress free! Matthew was always quick to respond and help with any questions we had. He never missed a text or phone call. Matthew was always honest with us and didnt try to push anything we werent interested in. He showed us brand new builds and previous owned homes that were available, and when we figured out what we were hoping to find, Matthew found it in 2 days! This guy truly goes above and beyond for his clients! I highly recommend working with Matthew if you are in search of a new home!
