Matt first became interested in pursuing a career in real estate through working on a variety of Litchfield County properties for his father’s construction company. While studying at the University of Puerto Rico Mayaguez during his junior year of college, Matt realized his passion for architecture and helping others could be fulfilled in a real estate career and returned to Connecticut to pursue his new profession upon graduation.
Matt was thrilled to join the William Pitt Sotheby’s International Realty team as a staff member after graduating from college in 2017 with a degree in Business Management. Within a year, he made his transition into sales. One of William Pitt Sotheby’s top producing agents, Irit Granger, recognized Matt’s dedication to building his business and ability to learn quickly, and the pair subsequently formed the Granger & McElhone Team in 2019.
Matt prides himself on providing the utmost level of service for his clients, and bringing a youthful perspective to the real estate business. His understanding of social media and digital advertising allow for his seller clients to maximize their marketing reach, and his knowledge of the local market brings the best homes and best deals to the attention of his buyers. Whether you are looking to sell your home, or to purchase a quiet weekend getaway, Matt’s devotion to his craft results in consistent approval from those that work with him.
A Warren native, and graduate of Wamogo Regional High School in Litchfield and Western Connecticut State University in Danbury, Matt’s roots are embedded in our area. As a lifelong resident of Litchfield County, Matt understands the impact of the Sotheby’s International Realty brand. The business education he received from the classroom and his father’s company, matched with his youthful energy and knowledge of the region in which he was raised help differentiate himself from his peers. When he gets a chance to take some down time, you can find Matt traveling and in the outdoors, whether it be in Connecticut, or while taking time to visit friends abroad.
