Matt Forcum

With over 16 years of experience and dual ownership of Shelby Realty Services and Backroad Auction, I bring unparalleled real estate expertise and innovative transaction strategies to business brokerage. My comprehensive background spanning residential, commercial, and land transactions provides clients with a unique advantage in navigating complex business deals.

As a Designated Managing Broker with an impressive array of industry certifications, I've built my career on a foundation of continuous learning and professional excellence. Each certification—from GRI to C2EX—represents not just letters after my name, but a commitment to providing clients with the highest level of expertise and service in every transaction.

My approach to business brokerage is enhanced by my auction expertise, offering clients alternative strategies for maximizing value and creating competitive environments that drive optimal outcomes. This dual perspective allows me to evaluate opportunities from multiple angles and craft creative solutions that traditional approaches might miss.

Beyond professional achievements, my deep community involvement as a school board member, township trustee, and volunteer firefighter reflects my commitment to fostering growth and building meaningful relationships. These roles have taught me the importance of trust, dedication, and service—values I bring to every client interaction.

Known for strategic thinking, unwavering determination, and exceptional results, I approach each business transaction with the same passion I bring to community service. Whether you're buying or selling, my goal is to leverage my extensive experience, market knowledge, and innovative strategies to exceed your expectations and achieve your business objectives.
