Matene has been my realtor since 2009. She helped me buy my first home and most recently helped me with selling my father’s house after his passing. While preparing my fathers home for listing Matene was a constant cheerleader, gently nudging me along and extending her support in helping me to get tasks done. Matene is helpful, attentive, and an advocate for her clients, ensuring that they are comfortable and informed during the entire process.

Matene is simply the best! As a first-time homebuyer she made sure I was informed throughout my entire process. She was patient, professional, and very kind from our initial meeting which made trusting her to guide me through the home buying process so easy! From showings to closing, Matene has been a pleasure to work with! I look forward to working with her again in the future and would highly recommend her to anyone interested in buying a home. You’re safe in her hands! Matene, thank you for helping me purchase my first home!

I’ve been enjoying my home for three years now and I can’t thank my realtor Matene enough! She’s a very patient and professional realtor that works diligently with you to meet your goals. She definitely works in the best interest of her clients and takes her time to explain the process step by step. I was a difficult one because I was indecisive first time buyer….but Matene worked so hard to meet my needs! I highly recommend her to anyone who’s interested in buying a home.

I really enjoyed working with Matene. She was very supportive along every step of the way. She helped me get the home of my dreams by coaching me on putting forth the best offer. Even though there were multiple offers for the home and it was my first offer, I was able to have my it accepted with Matene’s guidance.

She consistently remained in contact with me and the listing agent to get my questions answered and so forth. In addition, she went above and beyond to make sure I had all the resources I needed to make informed decisions. This was helpful in me not feeling overwhelmed in the process. I liked that fact that she also took my thoughts and feelings into account. As mentioned, this was a big purchase for me and it gave me a bit of anxiety. Outside of the home process, she also was advised on the lifestyle of the area and opportunities it provided. She even took me around the area to provide me more comfort in my purchase. This helped a ton and it made me more excited knowing that I had support in the process.

My process was swift with Matene, everything happened in a time span of less than a month. However, as a first time home buyer, I did and would recommend doing some research on your own to have an idea of the flow of the process, so you can get the best out of the experience and get exactly what you want. Overall, I recommend Matene as an esteemed realtor that can help with getting you into your new home. When purchasing again, Matene will def be my go to person.

Ms. Okoye is a fantastic realtor who is highly knowledgeable about the complexities involved in buying a home. As a FTHB, I ran into several challenges while completing the purchase of my home and Ms. Okoye always had a good suggestion for how to address the situation.

I don't know where to start, but this is my second time around working with Matene, I first worked with her in 2017 when she got me in my dream home..She has a amazing work ethic and goes above and beyond for her clients , So there was no doubt in my mind that I would not buy and sell with her again. Matene pays attention to detail and makes sure that all your needs will be met. She recently put my house on the market and after a day we had several offers. Matene also got me under contract with our new dream home. Thank you for assisting in making dreams come true.I have and will continue to recommend Matene to anyone who wants to buy or sell.

I can't recommend Matene enough! We could tell we were going to have a great experience with her when she responded to our first email within minutes. Since then, she was always extremely reachable. She listened to our needs while also giving us realistic advice for the market we were in. When we found our dream home, she was able to quickly schedule a tour and we made an offer soon after. Thanks to her help, we were able to make our offer competitive and be chosen over multiple other offers. During the closing process, she was very knowledgeable and helped us navigate several negotiations. The most important one was when there was a problem with the sewage system and the seller asked for us to pay for half of the repairs. Matene was able to step in and ensure that the sellers paid for everything and that we paid none of the repairs. You will definitely not regret going with Matene as your realtor!

I had and amazing experience working with Matene. As a first-time homebuyer, I was a bit nervous about the process, but Matene put me at ease right away from the start. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the local real estate market and was always available to answer my questions and provide guidance throughout the entire process.
What impressed me most about Matene was her dedication to finding me the perfect home. She took the time to understand my needs and preferences and worked tirelessly to find properties that met my criteria. She was patient, kind, and always had my best interests at heart.
When it was time to make an offer, she was a fierce advocate for me. She negotiated with the seller’s agent to get me the best possible price and terms.
I can't recommend Matene enough. She is a true professional, a pleasure to work with, and an absolute asset to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Thank you so much, Matene, for all your hard work and dedication!

My custom-built home ownership was a 20-month long harrowing experience that Martene and I went through - unbeknownst to us at the time we toured this new and beautiful community in Frederick. Martene was professional, knowledgeable, and compassionate. Throughout dark seasons within that 20-month long experience in which the builder collected all his dues but tactlessly and arrogantly delayed building my home in a shady bid to expire the home loan rate (I paid to lock for 12 months & was unduly penalized with an extra percent - just to protect myself); She was also my fierce advocate who fought hard for me. She unapologetically doused the fire of the builder who tried to persistently bully me with some baseless legalese. She provided informational resources every step of the way. That’s how I ended up reporting the Builder to the Maryland Attorney General’s Consumer Advocacy office. Like she also found out (although I’m a first time home owner), I’m pretty fierce too; especially in the face of sheer injustice. So, we fed off each other’s energy and more importantly joined in our Faith in God to victoriously close on my home just 2 hours shy of the expiration of my 12-month home loan locked rate. Ultimately, Martene Okoye is a respectful and consummate professional who would contextually morph into roles needed to take you successfully into your new home. The fact that she’s a God-fearing Believer is the Cream on the Cake for me. Like I always write in my communications with you Martene, Thanks-a-zillion!!!

My husband and I just spent our first night in our new home and we just LOVE IT! I highly recommend Matene Okoye and her entire team at Sold 100 Real Estate, especially Emily Nwokoye. They were professional, conscientious and very knowledgeable. There are so many wonderful things that I can say about Matene as a realtor. She was patient, genuine, and truly an advocate for our interests as buyers. Beyond her company, she has a network of qualified folks that she recommends who can help throughout the real estate process (e.g., home inspection), which was really an asset. Again, Matene was outstanding and if you are looking for real estate services with a family run company, don’t hesitate to contact Sold 100 Real Estate.

As a first time home buyer I was so nervous but she made the process easy. Thanks again Matene !

Professional, wonderful, very knowledgeable, genuine care and concern for her clients are just a few words that describe what a great agent Matene is to us. We have known Matene for over 10 years and this is our 4th time working with her. She helped us buy our first home, assisted in getting our home rented, then sold after two years and just recently helped us buy a home in Virginia. Even though trying to buy a home is like a roller coaster ride and not my favorite thing to do, without Matene I know for a fact that it would not have been such great experience for us. She is everything you want in an agent, super knowledgeable, wonderfully honest and genuine, she always has your best interest at hand and she always puts her clients first and never lets you make a bad decision...she always will give her most honest advise because ultimately she wants you to be happy and to be able to be comfortable with the decisions made. It’s never about commission...never! Matene is like family to us and we absolutely love her because of all the times she has worked with us, she has never allowed us to go down the wrong path. She always gives great advise and puts things into the right perspective that we sometimes do not see. We are settling into our new home and it’s perfect for our family. We really feel so good about the home and it just feels right! It was Matene that was patient in finding that perfect home that checked off all our wants on our list. She is such a great listener and hones into what her clients are looking for and want...she is so good!!! I cannot day that enough! I highly recommend her a billion times over!

After an appalling and dreadful experience with a previous agent, I almost became discouraged and was ready to abstain from purchasing a home until meeting Matene. My agreement with my previous agent was near expiration and wanting a change, I decided upon Matene after performing some research on sites such as this one and immediately terminated my agreement with my previous agent. I was contented to find that Matene was extremely pleasant, professional, and constructive. During the first week of viewing homes, I found the home I wanted and submitted an offer which was later accepted. I was astonished at how the first offer I submitted with Matene was accepted, especially since my last three offers were rejected with the previous agent. Being a first-time home buyer, the experience was challenging and stress inducing, but Matene was able to make it serene with her competence. Matene's transparency, guidance, expertise, and proficiency was immensely helpful during the home buying process. Not only did Matene counsel me and ensure that my interests were preserved during the entire process, she brokered the best deal of a lifetime. After closing, Matene presented me with a wonderful gift (which I won't share because I don't want to spoil it for the rest of you lol) that adds a perfect touch to my new home. I really appreciate Matene’s help and assistance during this process. I thank her for everything she did and it was an extreme pleasure working with her. I highly recommend her services for anyone who is looking to buy. Trust me, you will NOT be disappointed!

I am very satisfied with Matene’s guidance through my home purchasing process. It was a pleasure working with her. I was very careful about choosing an agent and it was reading other reviews about Matene that made me go with her and her company (Sold 100). The reviews don't lie - Matene revealed an extensive knowledge of real estate history & trends in the DMV area as well as factors that are driving revitalization and growth in the area. Matene is very professional with a personal touch. She offered a lot of support during the offer, counteroffer, loan & closing process; ensuring that the sale went through. I felt confident that she had my best interests at heart. Thanks Matene!

Matene recently helped me buy my first home. After six months of losing bids on properties under the leadership of a disinterested and disengaged realtor, Matene was a true breath of fresh air!
I was able to secure a contract on the very first property that I viewed with Matene! Not only was I amazed at her ability to secure the contract for me, but I was captivated by her professionalism, responsiveness and expertise. I truly felt that Matene was concerned about my best interests at all times. Also, she was not afraid to offer her advice, even if her opinion differed from mine. I will definitely refer all of my friends to Matene for their home buying/selling needs! Thanks Matene!

When my wife and I decided to shop for a home in the DMV area, we chose Matene as our agent after a good bit of research. Our dream house went under contract, but when the sale fell through, Matene acted urgently to get us an offer over the holiday week of Thanksgiving. She negotiated hard, stood up for us when the seller's agent was not forward with disclosures, and lent her it expertise with our many questions. More than anything else, Matene's communication was always on-point. Our experience as first-time home buyers could not have been better. Thanks Matene!

Matene was our realtor as we navigated the choppy waters of buying a home with a sale contingency. We previously bought directly with the builder but having to balance all of the steps of buying and selling a home was quite the experience! Matene was able to recommend vendors and contractors throughout the process and she was on hand for phone calls, text messages and in-person visits throughout the buying and selling experience. We are so pleased with the new home that we got and we can't thank Matene enough for helping us get into our dream home within our VERY tight deadline. Thank you, Matene!

My husband and I were first time home buyers and Matene made the process much more seamless, positive and personable. Her hours were extremely flexible as we kept having to schedule tours in the evening to accommodate my husband’s work schedule. If she was unable to follow through she made sure to immediately notify us and reschedule or let us know that an associate agent would give the tour instead. Also, she communicates immediately - even if she needs to consult with the seller, she is quick to notify us on it’s progress. She is extremely professional, knowledgable and helpful when my husband and I were making our decisions. She gave us space to make our own choice, however provided her insight and guidance on each step of the process. I can not emphasize how much of a great experience we had with having Matene as our agent. Thank you Matene for helping us find our beautiful first home!

Even though she probably had a lot more clients than us, it felt like we were her only ones due to the quality time she spent with us in trying to find our dream home.

As we all know, going through the process of being a home owner could be very difficult. What we don’t know is that, a professional like Matene Okoye at Sold 100 Real Estate can affectively help reduce that level of difficulty. My family and I were extremely lucky to work with Matene. Her knowledge on the D.C, Maryland, and Virginia area is beyond advanced. After providing her the preference of our ideal home, there were so many houses she’d show us day in day out until we found a perfect match. She made herself available at all times; always keeping her schedule open for us. From the time we picked her to represent us until the day we closed on our new home, she showed tremendous work ethic. Her willingness to help our family find that perfect dream home couldn’t go unnoticed. Matene did nothing short of dedicating her time into satisfying our wants and needs. I highly recommend Matene because of her smarts, kindness, ambition and, patience. Don’t miss out on an excellent realtor!!!

In 2013, my husband and I purchased a "starter home" as our first home together. We planned to stay in the townhouse for approximately 3-5 years; and then move to a single family home. By the end of the summer of 2015, our desire to have a single family home increased and we began our search. Although, I was excited about finding a home our kids could grow up in; the thought of selling a house and buying a house was overwhelming. Having purchased a home before, I knew doing both (purchasing and selling) would be a huge task.

I looked at houses with two other real estate agents before I deciding to make Matene Okoye my relator. Ultimately I choose her over the other two because I felt she was more attentive to my needs/wants and was more knowledgeable about the county I was looking to buy in.

As I continued to work with her, I became even more impressed with her. The following were very much appreciated during the home buying process:

1. While viewing homes we were considering for purchase, Matene made sure to identify any house "issues" she noticed.
2. While discussing bids, Matene was very honest about what she felt would be considered as a "good bid" in a bidding war.
3. Matene's recommendation for an inspector. He was very thorough.
3. Matene's familiarity with bank-owned properties.

The following were very much appreciated during the home selling process:

1. Matene consistently encouraged me to accept as many showing as possible to increase my chances of selling. Note: Staging a house that you are actively living in is not easy. :)
2. Matene helped me settle on a selling price that helped my house sell fast.

Overall, I appreciated Matene's constant communication and encouragement. It definitely helped to make things go smoother.

Matene is a great relator. Her extensive knowledge of the housing industry makes her a great choice for anyone looking to sell and/or buy a house .

Over the past several years I have bought and sold properties and have worked with several agents on these transactions; some agents were great at negotiating and follow-through and others not so much. Having recently worked with Ms. Matene Okoye, Realtor/Associate Broker at Sold 100 Real Estate, located in Greenbelt, Maryland, the process was quick and seamless. Matene listened to my needs and selected properties that met my criteria. The second home I was shown, I fell in love with and closed on it in less than two months after writing the offer!!!

Matene was familiar with and recommended purchasing options, worked with my lender, arranged termite inspection, and worked diligently with the title company to bring all of her efforts and my dreams to fruition. She even arranged service and paid for a minor repair to keep the loan and closing process cohesive. I highly recommend Sold 100 Real Estate agency and specifically Matene Okoye. Her warm courteous staff were all willing to go above and beyond to get me into my new home.

Knowledgeable. Professional. Efficient. Dedicated. Hardworking. All of these words describe Matene. She is absolutely amazing! My husband and I were first-time homebuyers and to be honest I was completely clueless. However, Matene explained each and every step and made sure that we had a clear understanding of the process. From our first phone call, I knew that she was the right real estate broker for us. She was there for us throughout the entire process. Even though we knew she had many more clients, she made it seem as though we were the only ones. She made herself very available to us and was very prompt in returning phone calls, text messages, or emails.

When we started the process I was placed on bed rest. However, we wanted to continue to search for our first home, so Matene and my husband went to see houses together and she made video recordings of the homes so that I could see them. (I did go see the house we really liked prior to putting in an offer). How thoughtful was that! Even more, when I was admitted to the hospital, she made it a point to check on me daily. She was genuinely concerned about my health and that meant so much to me.

There were no questions that Matene was unable to answer regarding the home buying process. She was very patient with my husband and I during this entire process. She checked in with us regularly when we went under contract to ensure that things were progressing smoothly and we were staying on track for closing. She even did a video chat with me so that I could be present for the settlement. Again that speaks to how thoughtful and considerate she is.

On the day of our closing, after the settlement, she paid me a surprise visit in the hospital to congratulate me on our first home!!

My husband and I could not have purchased the home we did, for the price that we did, without Matene. We started this journey with her as our real estate professional, however, I feel as though we ended it as friends.

I HIGHLY recommend Matene to anyone looking to purchase a home. Please do not hesitate to contact her, you will never regret it!!

If you need an effective agent, you need Matene. I had the pleasure of working with her for three months, during which she built a friendly, professional relationship with me--making the home buying process more enjoyable than I had anticipated. Matene guided me through the myriad nuances of the real estate market, and most of my questions were thoroughly answered before I could even ask. Ultimately, she helped me make a much better decision than I could have on my own. She also worked tirelessly on my behalf to establish and maintain communication with each of the relevant parties; without this help, we would not have been able to close on time and I would not be moving into my first home. If you are buying a home in Maryland, D.C., or Virginia, and want your best interests fulfilled, call Matene first. Her persona and extensive knowledge will serve you extraordinarily well.

Let me just say that Matene Richards is simply amazing! She is dependable, patient, organized, trustworthy and an absolute pleasure to work with. The home buying process is a tiring, daunting, and somewhat scary process for anyone but particularly so for first time home buyers like ourselves. Having someone that you not only trust but also someone with expertise in the field goes a long way towards making this process a stress free and somewhat enjoyable experience. For this reason, I recommend her highly, without a doubt, to any prospective home buyer looking to buy a home in the DC/VA/MD area. We got connected with Matene through friends of ours who had a similarly stellar home buying experience with her earlier this year. Matene took the time to meet us in our home (along with our energetic 2yo running around) and find out what our needs were and what type of home we wanted. During that first visit, she took the time to explain in plain English the terminology, local real estate regulations, as well as explain the steps we would be going through on our way to owning our first home. She was always easily reachable for any questions or for setting up last minute home viewings, and she never missed any of the important meetings where she sat by us explaining everything. During home viewings, as well as when signing major documents, she was great about bringing to our attention major deficiencies in the home or made sure she explained and that we knew what and why we were signing the documents we signed. All in all she was someone we trusted completely and she never steered us in the wrong direction. From the time we found our dream home it took just 4-5 weeks before we closed. Much of the credit is owed to Matene and her stellar organizational and communication skills. In short, we are now happily living in the home of our dreams and we are forever indebted to her for successfully navigating us through the murky waters of home buying. On a more personal note, beyond her exemplary professional assets, she is also an extremely kind and personable individual making her not only a true friend but also a ‘must have’ real estate agent for anyone looking to buy a home in this highly competitive market. With Matene Richards, you don’t have to look any further!

Matene was kind to me and my family--she really cared. She helped us get the house we wanted, figure out all the details, and seal the deal done in a positive and pain-free manner. Even during her scheduled vacation overseas she was always there, arranging things remotely, to make the purchase of our first home a success. I met her through an online search for realtors, but I now consider her a true friend and hope to stay in touch.

We could not have been happier with our experience working with Matene Richards to find our new home. Matene is warm, professional, hard-working, and always available. I couldn't think of a better combination of attributes in a realtor.
We were always impressed by her knowledge of the market and ever-changing regulations. For many months she helped guide us through the process of finding the right home in the right location, and when it came time to make one of the biggest decisions in our lives, we trusted her completely and were comforted that she was looking out for our best interests. Throughout it all, she was patient, thoughtful, and made a clear effort to understand us as people and our family's needs.
The down side of finding our dream home is that we no longer see Matene as much! She truly became a friend. I hope it is clear that our recommendation is unequivocal. If and when we find ourselves in need of realtor again, we won't hesitate to work with Matene Richards.

Matene was very helpful and knowledgeable regarding the homebuying process. We were first time home buyers and she walked us through the process and was able to help us negotiate a great deal on our house. We feel that without her help, we wouldn't have been able to negotiate a deal anywhere near as good. She was also supportive and encouraging when things were up in the air regarding the house deal. We're very happy with how everything turned out and feel that Matene was a big part of it.

Matene did an excellent job helping me get in to the perfect home. She quickly learned what I was looking for to help narrow down the search and took the time to help me understand the pros and cons with each home. She is very professional and was very patient with explaining things and making sure that I understood what was going on in the home buying process. All my emails and phone calls were returned promptly; usually within a few hours. I have 100% confidence in her abilities and I really feel like she went the extra mile. Matene was a pleasure to work with and if you are looking for a realtor in the area you don't need to look any further. You will not be disappointed.
