WE’LL BE YOUR FAVORITE PEOPLE ON THE BLOCK
LET’S GET CRYSTAL CLEAR ABOUT YOUR GOALS
BUYING | SELLING | RELOCATING
PHOENIX | EAST VALLEY | SCOTTSDALE | TUCSON
Buying or selling your home is one of the largest financial decisions you’ll ever make. It’s also one of the most emotional. We understand. And that’s why it’s imperative for our Cactus Living clients to remain seen, valued, and heard throughout their journey.
Pulling from our Iowa roots, we’re committed to fostering a small-town feel with each of our client relationships. We aren't just realtors, and we don't just provide a valuable service. Instead, we become a part of our clients’ families, providing an extraordinary experience while welcoming them home.
BUYING A HOME
HOME SEARCH | NEGOTIATIONS | CONTRACTING
Whether it’s your dream home or your first home, an investment property or a second home, we’ll ensure you find the perfect Arizona home at a competitive price by:
Utilizing our state-of-the-art app, CACTUS LIVING AZ, to customize your home search. By setting specific filters and notifications, we’ll stay ahead of the competition, even in the most challenging real estate markets.
Identifying the most aggressive offer while ensuring you don’t overpay for a home. By running exhaustive comps and assessing the market, we’ll negotiate the best deal for you.
Educating, energizing, and empathizing with you throughout the home-buying process, ensuring you have a successful, memorable start to the next chapter in your life.
SELLING YOUR HOME
MARKETING | NEGOTIATIONS | CONTRACTING
Upgrading? Downsizing? Moving across the Valley? We’re the team to sell your home. Our elevated approach to pricing, advertising, and negotiating ensures your home gets in front of the right buyers and sells for the best price. Our digital and traditional marketing techniques include:
Experiential open houses to drive traffic (think a florist making custom boutiques or a barista pouring local coffee)
Targeted social media campaigns, including paid Facebook/Instagram ads and customized YouTube videos
A customized website with drone footage, video tours, and professional photos
Hyperfocused print campaigns (including targeted mailings, door-hangers, fliers, etc)
