Matt Perry has lived in the Triangle since 1980. He graduated from Cary High School and NC State University before beginning his career as a high school math teacher and basketball coach.

That background still shapes how The Perry Group works. The team explains complicated decisions clearly, asks the questions that narrow the search, and helps clients understand how each home fits their plans beyond closing day.

Since Matt founded The Perry Group in 2011, the team has assisted more than 3,500 families. Relocating clients work with an experienced agent supported by professionals helping coordinate the search, communication, paperwork, inspections, deadlines, and closing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions we hear from people moving to the Triangle.

Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill anchor the region commonly called the Triangle, but they are distinct cities surrounded by many additional communities.

Housing, commutes, amenities, schools, and daily life can differ considerably across the region. A relocation search should compare the communities themselves rather than treat the Triangle as one uniform market.

Not necessarily. Begin with the commute, budget, lifestyle, housing needs, and long-term priorities. Those answers often reveal locations you may not have considered.

Some schools in the area operate on year-round calendars, while others follow traditional calendars. Assignment rules and calendars can vary.

We help you identify what to research, but current school information should always be verified through official district resources.

Yes. The team can help you identify opportunities and compare the property, community, builder process, incentives, costs, and resale considerations.

The earlier we understand your plans, the more time we have to explain the region, help prepare financing, and narrow the search before you need to make a decision.

Yes. The Perry Group maintains a network of lenders, attorneys, inspectors, contractors, tradespeople, and other service providers who may assist before and after the purchase.
