TESTIMONIALS

"Russ Fortuno is an exceptional real estate professional. He is personable, responsive and really knows the Green Valley real estate market. Additionally, Russ is a strong buyer’s advocate, good listener and business professional. He gave his honest opinion on places and did not push in any way. Living in Northern California, we required an agent who has a spectrum of knowledge about Green Valley as well as being able to navigate a transaction via long distance. Trust is key in all real estate business but really was crucial with our purchase. Russ showed us many properties prior to COVID, we ended up putting an offer on a property that we didn’t see until the inspection was completed. Having trust in Russ made our long distance home purchase possible. It was a little scary doing business this way but I can say that we are very happy with our condominium and Russ made such a purchase smooth and a relatively easy process. I whole heartedly recommend Russ to anyone seeking real estate in the Green Valley area, we will use Russ for all our future Green Valley real estate business."
- S.M., Redding CA
"Or home buying process took about 5 months and Russ was there for us the whole time. Never pushy always ready with advice and options. When we finally found the perfect place he was always on top of every detail and kept us informed and prepared for each step. Russ provides an extraordinary real estate experience for his clients. Professional, knowledgeable and ready to answer all our questions honestly and quickly. He was a joy to work with."
- D.H., Green Valley AZ
"Russ is the best agent on the planet, bar none! He came highly recommended to me and I suggest everyone should work with this stellar man. Russ is a fantastic negotiator. I don’t think another agent would have been able to seal this deal as well as Russ. He knows when to back off and when to apply pressure. Russ is always a gentleman and treats everyone with respect. He has a good sense of humor and although a bit dry, he really makes you chuckle when the chips are down. I came to Green Valley hoping to have an accepted offer on a house in one week. Russ did it! And, my house is very special. Plus I was on a tight budget. Russ has the patience of a saint and will answer a dumb question 4 times over if need be. His knowledge of local contractors and laws specific to your purchase is more than helpful. Russ has a great knowledge of the area in general and he works to find you just what it is you are looking for. Russ listens. Rare quality in a man, hu? And, he’s a dog lover! "
