Matt Johnson grew up riding horses in Central Vermont and attended the University of Vermont. A Dean’s list student, in 1992 he earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Animal Science with a concentration in Small Business Management. The following winter Matt Johnson made his first trek south to Wellington with his horse to work and train with top Olympic riders. For 5 years he did what many clients do, spending summers up north and winters in Wellington. In 1998 he made the decision to make Wellington his permanent year-round home and enter the real estate business. Since then, he hasn’t looked back. Consistently, year after year, Matt has been one of Wellington’s top-producing agents representing some of the community’s finest estates and equestrian properties. Over the development of his 25-year career, Matt has worked at some of the best firms both locally and internationally, notably, Illustrated Properties, Sotheby’s and Engel & Volkers. Regardless of the brokerage, Matt has always been a top producer of sales with each brand and consistently ranked on Newsweek’s America’s Best and The One-thousand. In 2022 he ranked 11th at the global firm of Engel & Volkers for the United States and Canada. He is always looking to raise the bar and provide the best exposure and service to his customers. Along with the traditional sales approach, Matt has a proven track record of success with luxury real estate auctions with some of Wellington’s most prestigious properties.
