I recall the day vividly. As a young man, I had a lot of choices ahead of me. At the time, one of my big choices was, “how long will I get to hang out at mom and dad’s house?” My brother and I are very close in age and we were having the time of our lives living in a really cool house that my mom and dad had […]

In the next couple of weeks, we will have better home search pages, more customization and the ability to make even more custom changes as we […]

A couple of months ago, I helped Ysidro and his family sell their home in Chandler and I knew I liked this guy from the minute I met him.. Kind of a “tell it like it is” type of guy. As our transaction […]
