A Neighbor First,
an Agent Second.
I grew up here, I live here, and I've watched Turlock grow into the vibrant community it is today. That's why I do what I do — because these streets, these neighborhoods, and these homes matter to me the same way they matter to you.
At Craft & Bauer Real Estate Co., we believe a great real estate experience isn't about closing the most deals. It's about making sure you feel informed, supported, and confident at every turn — whether this is your first home or your fifth investment.

The best part of this job isn't the closing — it's the relationships that last beyond it.
"Matthew made what we thought would be a stressful process feel completely manageable. He walked us through every detail, answered every question, and found us a home we absolutely love. We couldn't be happier."
"We sold our home in under two weeks and got above asking price. Matthew's staging advice and pricing strategy were spot-on. He truly knows the Turlock market inside and out."
"As an investor, I needed someone who understood numbers, not just neighborhoods. Matthew helped me find three properties that have already appreciated — he's a sharp negotiator and a genuine advisor."
