Description
Real Answers-not "Mumbo Jumbo." Native to the Southwest, my career has revolved around exceeding client expectations in a variety of fields. This region is my home, my passion, my heritage.

Passion, Pride & The Quest For Excellence

Providing personalized real estate services in Tucson, Oro Valley, Marana, Vail and surrounding area. 

"One Of America's Top 10 New Agents" - Real Estate Apprentice Foundation (Sept. 2007)
  
Combining Old-Fashioned client service with cutting-edge technology allows me to keep my clients well informed, in touch and aware of the marketplace.

I believe in straight talk and real answers:  You won't see me "Blowing Sunshine" at people or making things up just to look good.  If I don't know something, I'll tell you-then work to find the answer.  Smoke & mirrors are wonderful for magic acts, not Real Estate. 

Come see me in Tucson-we'll get comfortable and jump into my pickup truck to look at what properties interest you.  Afterwards perhaps you'd like to take in an Opera, catch some music at the Fox Theatre, enjoy a Film Festival at The Loft or cheer the U of A Wildcats on to victory.  The desert lifestyle is about comfort and diversity.  Let me show you the wonders we have to offer!

Real Estate Is About People...Hopes...Lives....Dreams
Lets fulfill yours together!

Areas of Expertise

The foundation of my business is based on residential property.  That being said, I have built my walls on land & investment property.  Recently, the roof has been completed by becoming the head of my brokerage's commercial department.

One specialty that I have worked hard to develop is working with clients who are based out of town.  Being able to communicate effectively through phone, email, and utilizing software to capture the essence of a property & its neighborhood allows us do develop a "feel" for an area that isn't seen by just looking at an info sheet.  Keeping a seller apprised of what is going on with their listing and those it is competing with gives us an opportunity to employ best practices & new strategies to market it wisely.

Regular attendance at seminars outlining growth strategies and projects planned for Pima County and Greater Tucson give me insight into not only what is happening now, but what will be happening down the road.  Knowledge is power, and my clients deserve an agent who is dedicated to learning & implementing the education that is available.

I am active in my community and serve on the Public Affairs Committee of the Tucson Association of Realtors®.  After all, real estate is about communities, the people and the decisions that affect them.

Testimonials

 

It's with great pleasure that we write this recommendation for Kent.

We were recently able to find and purchase a beautiful home in Vail, AZ thanks to his expertise and diligence. Living and working full time in California didn't make house hunting in Arizona an easy task! Over a long weekend in Tucson, Kent worked with us to look at houses that fit our budget and needs. His knowledge of the different areas of Tucson is formidable. When we didn't see a house we liked one day, he had a long list of others the next. After bidding on one house and not getting it, we started looking on the internet again back in California.

I found a perfect house and called Kent. He immediately videoed the house inside and out complete with commentary and posted it on YouTube for us to look at. Several dozen photos were emailed to us. We decided to put a bid on this house without stepping foot in it because our time with Kent convinced us that he had only our interests at heart and we trusted his judgement in everything real estate. We closed on the property all the while still in California. Kent was tireless in working with the lender and the title company, in emailing documents for us to sign. He kept us informed every step of the way until he called us to say the keys to the house were ours! Kent is simply the best!

...Kent has been exceptional to work with.  I found him to be consistently pleasant, tackling everything with dedication and a smile.

Besides being a joy to work with, Kent is a take-charge person who is able to present creative ideas and communicate the benefits of those ideas.   He has successfully developed several marketing plans and internet avenues for his company that has resulted in increased productivity.  The sale of my home was a direct result of the plans implemented by Kent.

Kent has assumed a role as an effective Real Estate Agent and is becoming a leader in his industry. I would also say that Kent will be great with inspiring and motivating others in his industry.

 
Sincerely,
Shannon Ratliff-Kachurka

 

Dear Kent,

We just wanted to thank you once again for the tremendous level of service and commitment that you gave us on our recent trip to Tucson.  You devoted three days to helping us familiarize ourselves with the area and the different housing options available.  You quickly recognized our tastes and priorities and responded with properties chosen to target our needs.  While we were relaxing in the evenings and enjoying the amenities of Tucson, you were researching new properties to show us on the next day. You were vigilant in safeguarding our interests making us aware of any potential issues that might need to be addressed. You helped us begin to understand the Tucson area by pointing out areas of interest and introducing us to great restaurants.  The level of service and ease of working with you were unparalleled in our experience of buying property.  We feel so fortunate that we found the Pepper Group website and came straight to your office upon arriving in Tucson.  Thank you for all your time and effort on our behalf. 

All the best,

William and Allison Woolston
