A husband-and-wife team helping seniors and their families through one of life's biggest transitions — with compassion, patience, and trusted local expertise.
Matthew and Jeannie Young are the founders of Team Young Seattle and have been partners in life for over 18 years, building both a family and a business rooted in service, integrity, and helping others through life’s biggest transitions. Since earning their real estate licenses together, they have combined their unique backgrounds and strengths to create a client-focused approach that goes far beyond traditional real estate.
Matthew is a lifelong Washington resident who comes from a military family, values that shaped his strong work ethic, commitment to service, and hands-on approach to helping clients. He has worked in the home industry since 2006, bringing over 16 years of experience spanning construction project administration, project management, home preparation, marketing, sales, and customer service.
His background gives clients a unique advantage through deep knowledge of home systems, renovations, strategic home preparation, and strong negotiation skills — helping sellers maximize value and buyers make informed decisions.
Jeannie, originally from West Virginia, has called the Pacific Northwest home since 2004 and brings a strong foundation in Business Administration, management, logistics, and healthcare. Known for her attention to detail and exceptional organizational skills, she helps keep every moving piece on track while creating a smooth, stress-free experience for clients.
Her ability to manage complex situations and support clients through emotional transitions makes her an invaluable part of Team Young.
Together, Matthew and Jeannie have called Maple Valley home for over a decade, serving clients throughout the Puget Sound region with local insight, compassionate guidance, and personalized support.
They are especially passionate about helping seniors, downsizers, families navigating transitions, and homeowners who need more than a typical real estate experience.
A home is more than a place to live — it's where life's memories are made. But as time goes on, many seniors and their families find that the home they once cherished no longer fits their needs. Whether it's downsizing, moving to a retirement community, or transitioning into assisted living or memory care, this next step can feel overwhelming — emotionally and financially.
That's where we come in.
As a husband-and-wife team, Matthew and Jeannie Young bring not only professional expertise but also genuine care and patience to every client we serve. We understand that these moves involve more than real estate — they involve family, change, and trust.
We work closely with seniors, families, and powers of attorney to make the transition as smooth and comfortable as possible.
With 17+ years in the home industry and 16+ years in real estate, we've built a trusted network of vendors to help prepare homes efficiently and cost-effectively.
From negotiations to contract details, we protect your hard-earned equity while reducing stress along the way.
We take time to explain each step before it happens — giving you and your loved ones the space and confidence to make informed decisions.
From Maple Valley and Seattle to the Kitsap Peninsula and beyond — wherever life is taking you next, we bring the same hands-on care and local market expertise.
The real estate professional you choose is one of the most important decisions in your downsizing journey. The wrong advisor can cost you valuable time, money, and unnecessary stress — so it pays to choose wisely.
With a proven track record helping seniors transition to the next chapter, Matthew offers the experience, patience, and trusted guidance needed to sell your home confidently and smoothly. Discover the difference experience and compassionate downsizing expertise make.
