TESTIMONIALS

"As Real Estate Brokers in Hawaii for more than 40 years, we know how important a good agent is when looking to buy property when you can’t be there. After seeing a property listed by Russ, we called and talked with him. He came across as very knowledgeable, competent, helpful, and friendly so we asked Russ to send us new listings for the type of property we were looking for, which he did. When a property came up that we liked we contacted Russ and had him arrange to show the place to our son who lives in Green Valley. Everything looked great so we had Russ write and present our offer, which was accepted. Russ followed through with everything required and kept us up to date each step through escrow and the final closing. We are very happy with how Russ treated us and made sure everything got done when it needed to be done. Every step of this purchase was handled by phone and email. We recommend Russ to everyone looking for a good agent to represent them in Real Estate."

"Russ Fortuno is a 5-Star professional who I highly recommend without reservation. He is knowledgeable, experienced, prompt, efficient, polite, fair, honest, and very personable. We interviewed four real estate agents and he was far and above the most experienced, proficient, and knowledgeable. He gave us excellent advice on how to prepare the house for the market, and directed us on having an estate sale. He sold our house in Green Valley, AZ before it even went on the market, and did an excellent job negotiating a fair price. Our entire family was thrilled with the service he provided to us. You cannot go wrong with Russ Fortuno."
- N. T., Highland Park, IL
"Very professional in his approach. Very organized in his scheduling of home tours and knowledgeable of Green Valley and Quail Creek. We highly recommend Russ for all of your real estate searches. "
