With more than 20 years of experience and over $500 million in career sales, Matt Leutheuser is a Chicago real estate broker and trusted advisor to buyers, sellers, developers, and investors. As Vice President of Sales at Jameson Sotheby’s International Realty, he combines deep local market knowledge with candid advice, thoughtful strategy, and skilled negotiation.
Matt’s experience spans a broad range of Chicago neighborhoods, property types, and price points—from condominiums and single-family homes to new developments, investment properties, and some of the city’s most distinctive luxury residences. His work includes representing the sale of 1932 N. Burling Street for $15.25 million, the highest-priced single-family home sale in Chicago at the time.
Through longstanding relationships with many of the city’s leading developers, investors, and real estate professionals, Matt offers clients insight that often extends beyond the everyday public market. These connections provide early knowledge of new developments, private listings, and off-market opportunities, while his understanding of neighborhood-level market conditions helps clients make informed decisions about value, timing, and strategy.
For sellers, Matt takes a hands-on approach to property preparation, pricing, marketing, and negotiation, supported by the exceptional marketing resources and global exposure of Sotheby’s International Realty. For buyers, he focuses on identifying value, anticipating competition, and structuring offers that protect his clients’ interests while giving them the best opportunity for success.
Clients appreciate Matt’s honesty, responsiveness, and ability to make even complicated transactions feel clear and manageable. His straightforward, highly personal approach has created lasting relationships and a business built largely on repeat clients and referrals. He is consistently recognized among the top 1% of producers at Jameson Sotheby’s International Realty and as one of Chicago’s leading real estate professionals.
Through the Sotheby’s International Realty network, Matt can also connect clients with trusted real estate professionals in markets across the country and around the world.
