Passion, Pride & The Quest For Excellence

 

 

 

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

Search for property from your phone:  Tucson's First GPS phone app   OR   From your computer:  Easy Home Search
  
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.  I am working on the roof, which is commercial property.

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

Two qualities come up when I describe Kent Simpson, knowledgable and generous. Kent is involved with many different community groups and is always willing to share his time and energy to help a collegue or client. Kent is a source of information for anyone in the Southern Arizona community to take advantage. I recommend him without any reservation.” - Tom Heath, Consolidated Lenders & 2010 President of Southern Arizona Mortgage Lender Association

 

“Kent is perfect for his profession. He knows the area, the ups and downs, the pros and cons, and addresses anything that might become a question before it arises or has the hint of becoming an issue! Our recent home purchase was the easiest, most stress free real estate transaction I have ever experienced. If the home were not so perfect, I would say that I would use Kent again but I believe we are going to be here a long time. I would highly recommend Kent for any real estate transaction you may consider.” - Dave & Caterina Mathes

 

“I have had the pleasure to associate with Kent Simpson both professionally and through his support of The Hearth Foundation. Kent is an incredible resource to the housing industry through his investment to “do the right thing” for his clients and community.” - Cari Pinc, People's Mortgage Marketing Director

 

“As a Realtor myself, I rarely submit testimonials for other Realtors and I know a good one when I see it. Kent is exactly that, a very good Realtor. I would feel comfortable referring anyone to him. You should too.” - Bill Nordbrock

 

“Kent has helped us with buying our first home. He was on top of the whole process and is very knowledgeable and was able to answer any questions we threw at him. I've found his services to be invaluable and would use him again in the future.” - Steve & Jayleigh O'Leary

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!
- Ed and Laurel Miller


“Kent is extremely in touch with what is happening in the Tucson Real Estate industry. He is constantly updating information and doing research on the latest happenings not only in the Real Estate industry but concerning Tucson and all of Arizona. I have been very impressed with his follow through. If you ask for information you get it quickly and accurately. Kent is a true professional and a credit to the Real Estate Community.” - Bekki Booth, American Home Guardian

 

...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
