Meet Matt Tamm
It is important when selecting a real estate agent to find an individual that will service their clients. I have always been one to serve others. It started by working with my father at eight years of age on his milk route in Royal Oak, Michigan and continued in college when I tended bar and waited tables. But my prized experiences have been servicing the young people that I taught and coached throughout my 25 year career in the classroom and on the basketball court at Petoskey High School. I have lived in northern Michigan since 1983, I know the area and its people. It is not just a place to live, it is a way of life. Let me service you as you make your next real estate transaction. Call me to discuss your goals either as a buyer or seller.


I grew up in Royal Oak, Michigan. My undergraduate and graduate degrees from Central Michigan University are in history and political science.
In the 1980s I relocated in Petoskey and my wife and I dedicated our focus on teaching, coaching and raising our family in northern Michigan. A majority of these years we had the honor and privilege of pursuing these careers at Petoskey and Harbor Springs Public Schools. This chapter of our lives was very rewarding; and provided intertwining connections in both of these communities.
We both retired from teaching in June of 2015. Our first year away from education was devoted to family, travel and each other. It gave us an opportunity to rest, rejuvenate and re-focus on what direction we wanted our next chapter in life to be. Both of our children are immersed in their college education journeys. Our son, Teddy, graduated from Michigan State University’s James Madison College in May of 2018; and our daughter, Kerby, will begin her last year of doctoral studies in physical therapy at Central Michigan University.
I am excited and honored to be a part of Kidd & Leavy Real Estate Team. I look forward to contributing to the high standards and reputation of the #1 real estate agency ‘Up North.’
