When my first realtor was not taking charge the way I needed, I was referred to Tony Ray and could not be happier. He swept in and saved the day! He's super knowledgeable and friendly, and helped me every step of the way (which is what I was requiring). He knew instantly who the buyer would be for the house and what timing we needed to put the house on the market. House got an offer almost immediately! His advice to me, along with his negotiation skills literally saved the sale. This was the first house I've sold and I couldn't be happier with how it all turned out.

Tony was able to do what our previous realtor was not! He sold our home in about half the time that it takes most homes in our neighborhood to sell. Tony came in providing us with a solid marketing strategy, and it paid off. He communicated frequently with us, providing market updates along the way, and was always incredibly friendly and a joy to talk to. Thank you for everything!

We just bought our first home and truly couldn’t have done it without Danny. He stayed with us for over two years through countless obstacles and never once lost his enthusiasm or belief that we’d find the right home. He was always incredibly responsive, kept us informed every step of the way, and made sure there were no surprises. He genuinely understood what mattered most to us and never let us settle. We’re so grateful for everything he did and couldn’t recommend him more highly.

Tony Ray was there for me in all aspects of selling my mother’s home. He had everything covered from packing, moving furniture, finding people who needed her items, and repairs. I appreciate the time he spent with me explaining the process. Working with Tony Ray took stress off of my plate in a difficult and confusing time for me and my husband. I am grateful to have worked with him and his team.

Danny Estrada was recommended to us by our lender and we're so grateful! He's fantastic: funny and knowledgeable. He explained the buying process and was always on our side in negotiations. He did it all with wit and patience. We were up against a tight schedule and Danny made it happen, even after one deal fell through. He pivoted with grace and humor. His energetic vibe and genuine desire to make our family happy and safe was just what we needed. If you're looking for a kind, smart, engaged realtor - Danny Estrada is it!

Tony Ray, Darren and the team did an amazing job! My house sold above the asking price. This was possible because Tony Ray and team guided me with expertise on how to get the house ready for market, how to stage it, and knew exactly how to time the listing. All the while Tony Ray and team are super clear and easy to work with. I used multiple other real estate agents in the past but never had this level of thoughtfulness and results. I will be recommending Tony Ray to everyone I know.

We were so pleased working with Danny Estrada as our primary realtor. He was extremely patient with us. He answered all our crazy questions very quickly. He guided us through the process of buying a house in Arizona, and even did things like the inspection process without us being present. He found us contractors, mortgage professionals, and a title company, all of whom have been great. He was very professional, but fun too. We are so glad we found him.

Working with Danny finding a new home was one of those rare collaborations where everything works. Throughout the process, Danny and his team brought value, knowledge, humor and tenacity throughout the seamless transaction. I can’t recommend Danny and his team strong enough. I look forward to working with him in the future.
