Why It Matters

What changes when your broker
knows the market cold.

Most commercial brokers cover territory. Charlie Exelbirt works a market. That distinction — knowing submarket vacancy rates, landlord motivation, and deal structures before a call is made — is what separates a good outcome from a great one.

As President and Principal Broker of Mattis Advisors, Charlie brings institutional-level market intelligence to every transaction, regardless of size.

FAQ

Common questions about
working with Charlie.

Charlie's primary focus is industrial, retail, and office properties across South Florida, including flex space, strip centers, mixed-use buildings, and multi-tenant industrial parks. He also handles multifamily and land transactions and has extensive experience with 1031 exchange acquisitions across all asset classes.
Landlord representation covers everything from initial leasing strategy and pricing to tenant qualification, marketing, lease negotiation, and execution. Charlie manages the full leasing process — including CAM structure, rent escalation schedules, tenant improvement allowances, and lease term negotiations — so the property owner doesn't have to be in every room.
Pricing starts with a full market comp analysis — recent sales of comparable properties, current cap rates in the submarket, vacancy trends, and buyer demand. For investment properties, Charlie also builds a net-to-owner analysis that accounts for lease structure, tenant credit, and remaining term. The goal is a defensible price that maximizes value without sitting on market.
Charlie serves the full tri-county area — Broward County (Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, Hallandale Beach, Pompano Beach, Coral Springs, Plantation, Miramar, Davie), Palm Beach County (Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Boynton Beach, Lake Worth, West Palm Beach, Boynton Beach), and Miami-Dade County (Miami, Coral Gables, Doral, Aventura, Brickell, Wynwood, Coconut Grove).
A Broker Opinion of Value is a comp-supported valuation of your commercial property that outlines estimated market value across different exit scenarios — sale, hold, or exchange. It's not an appraisal, but for most property owners deciding whether to sell, refinance, or restructure a lease, it provides the market grounding to make that decision with real data behind it. Charlie provides BOVs at no cost to property owners.
Yes. Charlie has guided multiple investors through 1031 exchanges — both on the disposition side (selling the relinquished property) and the acquisition side (identifying replacement properties within the 45-day identification window). His cross-county market coverage makes it easier to find qualifying replacement properties without sacrificing asset quality or overpaying to meet a deadline.
Mattis Advisors is a boutique firm, which means Charlie is directly involved in every transaction — not delegating to a junior associate after the listing agreement is signed. That hands-on approach means faster decisions, sharper market positioning, and a broker who actually knows your property and your goals when the deal is being negotiated.
