Matthew Prior - GTHA Real Estate

Directions Website

Matthew Prior - GTHA Real Estate I have had an interest in buildings and architecture since childhood. Here, I honed professional skills in customer service, marketing and negotiation.

This passion led me to pursue a degree in Community Design at Dalhousie University, and subsequently, a career in real estate. My years in commercial real estate with an international brokerage entailed a strong focus on the bottom line. Transitioning to residential real estate was a natural step, as I enjoy the more personal connection with clients and my community. Having experienced numerous moves throughout my own life, I’m comfortable with helping guide & support others through the process. I was born on the West coast and schooled on the East coast, but Halton has been my home for over 30 years. Oakville, Burlington Waterdown & Dundas are my communities, where I work, volunteer, and dabble in some social golf. My wonderful wife Alicia and I currently reside in the Shoreacres neighbourhood of South Burlington, with our two children Finn & Kylie. If you ever see us out on a walk or at the local parks, don’t hesitate to stop and say “hey,” although the kids might beat you to it.

🌅🏡 How Shorter Days Can Change the Way You View a Home

As the days get shorter, home showings can look and feel a little different. 🍂

☀️ Natural light becomes more important — pay attention to how bright each room feels during the day.

🌙 Evening showings may happen after sunset, making it harder to properly see the exterior, yard and surrounding neighbourhood.

💡 Interior lighting can completely change the feel of a space, so consider how the home looks in both natural and artificial light.

🌳 Landscaping, lot size and exterior details can be easier to miss once it gets dark.

🏘️ The neighbourhood may also feel different depending on the time of day.

If you love a home you viewed after dark, consider coming back during daylight hours. Seeing it at different times can give you a much better picture of what living there would actually feel like. 🍁🔑

📚🍂 Cozy Reading Corners We Can’t Stop Saving

There’s something about fall that makes a cozy corner at home feel even better. 🤎

Think a comfy chair, soft throw, warm lighting, a stack of your favourite books and maybe a coffee within reach. ☕️ Whether it’s a built-in window seat, an unused corner of the bedroom or a quiet spot beside the fireplace, it doesn’t take much to create the perfect little escape.

Sometimes, it’s the smallest spaces that make a home feel the most inviting. 🍁🏡

Which reading corner would you want in your dream home? 📖✨
