About Jim

Personal Background I am a native of Tucson and may never leave this beautiful city. I attended the University of Arizona studying Economics and Speech Communication. My first experience in the real estate field was in the commercial area. I worked with area builders in locating and developing residential subdivision across the Tucson valley. In between my commercial real estate career and what would become my residential real estate career, I became a State Certified General Real Estate Appraiser and practiced for nearly five years in that capacity. My assignments included vacant land, apartments, industrial properties as well as many residential properties. I am now teamed with my wife Shannon. Shannon has lived in Tucson for more than 40 years and brings over 25 years of customer service to our partnership. You are never alone when you use our team. We are "Twice As Strong On Service". What we do for our Sellers What We Do for Our Sellers Maximum exsposure to the market is what gets a Seller the highest price the market will allow. That's why we provide Seller's homes "More Exposure, More Often, in More Mediums, at Higher Quality, than any other real estate company in the nation". • Everyone uses the MLS. But we find that it is so important to optimize/maximise the photography and discription to captivate the potential buyers. Did you know that NAR has found that a well executed photography plan can increase showings by over 300%? • Buyers have moved online. That's why we distribute property information to over 350 websites. If a buyer is looking for a home similar to yours, we want to be sure that yours is considered. • Fewer than 10% of all the listings on Realtor.com are SHOWCASE LISTINGS. We believe our clients deserve to be among that elite group. It increases visibility, exposure, buyers, and offers. • But it's not enough to put your property on the Internet. You have to have a way to respond to inquiries. Our proprietary HomeBase InTouch system connects us to online buyers within seconds of their inquiry. Without HomeBase InTouch, it would be like running an ad, and then never answering the phone. • In addition to the internet, we make sure that all our listings are featured in Coldwell Banker's own View Magazine. The View is distributed throughout the state of Arizona. We have even sent a special issue to China. The online version reaches buyers throughout the world. That's powerful. • The number 2 search engine on the internet today is You Tube. That's why we feature all of our listings on "ON LOCATION", the most visited real estate channel on You Tube today.
