Choosing Carol Matarazzo and her husband Joe at Realty One Group/MVP means hiring a team with a combined 46 years of expertise and a deep-rooted history in Florida real estate.  

Here is why they are a top choice for buyers and sellers in the Southwest Florida market:


1. Decades of Local Expertise
Carol is a fifth-generation Floridian and has been a licensed Realtor since 1990. This level of experience provides her with an intuitive understanding of the region’s growth, neighborhood nuances, and long-term market trends that newer agents simply don't have.  

2. A Dynamic "Husband & Wife" Team
When you hire Carol, you also get the specialized background of Joe Matarazzo.

• Carol's Strength: Award-winning sales volume, interior design knowledge, and a "bulldog" determination for her clients.  

• Joe's Strength: A home builder for over 30 years who has built over 1,000 homes. He offers invaluable technical insight into construction quality, home inspections, and renovation potential.  

3. Comprehensive Service Range
They specialize in a wide variety of real estate needs across Lee and Collier Counties, including:

• New Construction: Their background in design and building makes them ideal advocates when navigating the complexities of building a new home.

• Luxury & Gated Communities: Extensive experience in areas like Estero, Bonita Springs, Naples, and Fort Myers.  

• Relocation & Investment: Specialized knowledge in short sales, foreclosures, and helping out-of-town buyers get up to speed on the local market.  

4. Client-First Philosophy
Reviews consistently highlight Carol’s responsiveness and "patient" approach. She is known for:

• Accessibility: Prioritizing quick communication and being a "good listener" to match clients with the right property.  

• Stress-Free Transactions: Handling the heavy lifting—from financing and title work to coordinating inspections—to ensure a smooth closing.  

• Professionalism with a Personal Touch: Clients often describe them not just as brokers, but as "great friends" who are gracious and dedicated.

My wife and I were very impressed with both Carol and Joe who spent the entire day showing us properties for sale. Although we didn't find what we were looking for that first day, we both knew we found the right people to help us. They are both knowledgeable and professional and we would not hesitate to recommend them.
