About Matt Van Voorhis

Hi, I’m Matt! I’m originally from Grand Forks, North Dakota, and now live in Minnesota with my wife and our corgi, Max. I graduated from Pioneer High School in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and earned my bachelor’s degree in Real Estate and the Built Environment from the University of Denver.
Before becoming a Realtor®, I spent several years playing professional hockey, including two years in Oslo, Norway. That experience taught me discipline, adaptability, and teamwork—all qualities that influence how I approach real estate today. I bring the same focus and drive from my time on the ice into helping clients navigate one of the biggest decisions of their lives.
My competitive nature gives me an edge when it comes to negotiation and strategy, but my calm, grounded approach ensures every client feels supported and understood. Real estate has always been a natural fit for me. My education gave me a deep understanding of the industry, but my passion comes from working with people. For me, it’s not just about transactions—it’s about relationships. I take pride in being genuine, professional, and adaptable, building trust quickly and creating a calm, confident experience for my clients from start to finish.
I’m focused on continually improving my business through better systems, time management, and efficiency, while also contributing to the growth of Pemberton Homes as a leading brokerage in Minnesota. I love mentoring others and being part of a team that raises the standard for excellence and professionalism in real estate. My goal is to make a lasting impact—not just through sales, but through the people I help and the community I serve.
Outside of work, I stay involved in hockey by coaching high school players in White Bear Lake. In the summer, you’ll usually find me on the golf course, traveling with my wife, or cooking for friends. We try to make a trip to Europe every year and are always on the hunt for great local restaurants wherever we go.
