Matt Golley, Broker, Realtor®

205.582.8416

After graduating from the University of Texas in Austin, my love of helping people began with a career in non-profit development taking me to many different cities, including a few years in the Caribbean. About ten years ago I made the move to the Shoals area, where I found myself renovating historic homes in Downtown Florence. As I was buying homes to renovate, it was a natural step to become a Realtor and help others in my close community who had questions about the buying or selling process.  As the years have gone by, I became one of the top Realtors in the Shoals area, and surrounded myself with a team of other real estate professionals to better serve our area.

When not working with buyers and sellers, or personally working on one of my own renovation projects, you’ll find me out and about in downtown Florence, enjoying local music, working at Kodachrome Community Garden, the non-profit I co-founded, or out with friends at one of my favorite locally owned places.

So if you see me, stop and say hi! I’m excited to meet you.
