I have been specializing in residential real estate in Scottsdale, Paradise Valley and Phoenix Arizona since 1974. Wow, have things changed over the years! There are many beautiful places to live in the valley and each has it's own unique amenities and lifestyle. I have lived in Tempe, The Paradise Valley Area, and Scottsdale. I currently live in a planned community named McCormick Ranch. Since I have been in the business so long, I have a working knowledge of most neigbhorhoods in the area. I love Real Estate since I enjoy working with people and relish the challenge of finding just the right property that fits each need. I don't like to brag, but if you insist. I'm in Who's Who of North American Realtors, winner of The President's Award, Executive Club, 100 % Club etc. etc. The thing that counts, is that I have the background and expertise to provide you with a smooth, successful Real Estate transaction. By the way, I don't work alone. Besides working for the top Real Estate company in Phoenix, Realty Executives, I have the best partner in the business. He is my son Paul who is an Arizona Native and has been selling homes for over 8 years. He is also listed on ActiveRain and you will find several of his expert Real Estate blogs on this site.
