The Complete Guide to Buying a Home in Arizona

Whether it’s your first or your fifth real estate purchase, the task of buying a home can be overwhelming — the massive amount of information on the internet can be confusing, outdated and in many cases downright inaccurate. Additionally, laws and customs in one state are often not the same when purchasing a home in another community or state.

In addition to offering you my experience and expert advice as a Buyer’s Agent, here are some resources to help you navigate the process of buying a home in the Green Valley area:

TESTIMONIALS

"Very professional approach to all aspects of our transaction. His handling of this purchase allowed us to have total confidence that we were being represented by the best real estate agent for us. I would have no reservations in recommending Russ Fortuno to anyone else looking for a RealEstate Agent! "
- D.L., Green Valley AZ
"I can’t say enough about what an outstanding job Russ did for us! We decided to retire to AZ and after touring several areas in the state, we chose the Tucson area. I found Russ online and reached out to him to help us find our retirement neighborhood and home. Russ spent a day showing us all of the different neighborhoods in both Sahuarita and Green Valley that met our requirements and were within our budget. By the end of the day, we had chosen four neighborhoods. Russ then found four homes for sale in our chosen neighborhoods; two in our favorite! The next day, Russ took us to tour the four homes and by the end of the second day, we made an offer. We are relocating from Kentucky and Russ has been there for us every single step of the way. He has been invaluable in making this entire experience smooth and exciting for us! His service after the sale has been equally exemplary!"
- E. W., Sahuarita AZ
"Russ made us feel comfortable right away. So very patient and if we called with a question, he answered it and put me at ease. What an absolute wonderful guy. Worked super hard at getting closing complete while we were here. Love, love, love the man. Will not use anyone else. "
- K.S., Grand Rapids MN
