      - Bryan And Scylor Olheiser Gilbert AZ
    • Rachel was so awesome! We had gone through two realtors before her that made us feel uncomfortable. I was so happy when we found Rachel! She was always quick to respond, polite, and gave recommendation but always did what we asked. Rachel had tons of fun with our kids and always made us laugh when we saw her. She was knowledgeable of the area, the home buying process and of things specifically related to VA buyers. You won't find a better realtor!

      - Tim and Michelle Slawnikowski Chandler AZ
    • Words aren't adequate to describe the experience we had buying our new home with Rachel Russo. She is the most attentive, responsive, thorough, and all-around AMAZING real estate agent we've ever worked with (and we've bought and sold a lot of homes). Rachel gave us so much of her time, resources, and generally went well above and beyond what we expected from start to finish. Even after the sale was closed and we were moving in she was still working hard to make sure everything was perfect for us. We will recommend Rachel to everyone we meet from this point forward and will forever hold all other agents to her incredibly high standards. Thank you Rachel!!

      - Sharen Ross and Kurt Meacham Cave Creek AZ
    • Rachel is very professional,knowledgeable,understanding and thorough. She was referred to us by friends that had used her and she was everything they said she was. Full of positive energy. She made the experience smooth and efficient. We would with no hesitation also refer her real estate service to everyone. Thank Rachel for a job well done. Oh, by the way our house sold in a matter of hours!!

      - Steven and Connie Webb Sun City AZ
    • Rachel will work tirelessly to find the right home for you and is an expert at negotiating the best deal. She is always available and has an extensive list of people you might need when you purchase your new home. I highly recommend her to anyone purchasing a home.1

      - Jennifer Perry Peoria AZ
    • Best real estate agent ever. She is diligent and efficient. She worked miracles and gave amazing advice. Only will work with her. She's a great person and has worked with other family members continues to deliver exceptional service

      - Delano and Deserae Blackman Surprise AZ
    • Rachel is amazing. She got us everything we asked for and it was a pleasure working with her. She stays on top of everything and kept us informed as they happened. She was with us every step of the way

      - Anita Rothbart Mesa AZ
    • Another 5-star experience. Rachel is INCREDIBLE! Sold my GF's house 2 days after we initially met her, before it actually even listed. Sold my house shortly afterwards, only 2 days on the market - 15 showings and 11 offers within 48 hours! We both got top dollar from well-qualified buyers. If you need a realtor in metro Phoenix, Rachel is your gal.

      - Kevin Collins Chandler AZ
    • My experience with Racheal Russo has been magnificent. She has the knowledge base of utilizing military benefits. Racheal, helped my family and I purchase our first house and she has also helped us sell that same house, years later. I would rate Racheal a 10 out of 5 stars because she goes above and beyond. Lastly, Racheal will work hard for you and get you what you want. She is an efficient worker and I will be utilizing her services for years to come.

      - Amanda Lebron Castro Laveen
    • Rachel did a masterful job orchestrating the sale of my house. It is an unusual property in an older neighborhood, but she quickly drove the right kind of buyer to my listing. I've never sold a home before, but it was easy to understand the process through her explanations. I felt like she was my champion the whole time, from pre-listing meeting to closing date. I am positive that I got top dollar. She even helped smooth out some post-close information transfers to the buyer. I recommend Rachel highly for any buyer or seller. She's amazing! Less

      - Andrea Murschel Mesa AZ
    • I was fortunate to be referred to Rachel Russo by my credit union. Immediately her knowledge, and expertise were evident. She has a wonderful, warm personality. She listened to what I was looking for in a property and quickly delivered. She was assertive-able to get price, and concessions which were great cost savings. I would recommend Rachel to everyone!

      - Kathy S Anderson Phoenix AZ
    • Rachel was all in from start to finish and communicated with us honestly every step of the way. She is knowledgeable, resourceful, worked to resolve issues quickly, and went above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction and happiness as well as do whatever she could to make this a great experience.

      - James and Jacquelyn Sturdivant Peoria AZ
    • Rachel was a great real estate agent. She is very knowledgable and guided us through the process with great skill. She was very responsive to questions and concerns. She is also fun to work with.

      - Michael and Patti Sills Trausch Phoenix AZ
    • We have had the pleasure of working with Rachel on two occasions. Her enthusiasm is contagious and really made us feel we were working as a team. Her insight and recommendations brought top dollar in the sale of our home. The home buying/selling process was made quite painless with Ms. Russos guidance. We highly recommend Rachel Russo.

      - John and Kathy Schildroth Gilbert AZ
    • In real estate, whether you are buying or selling, you are looking for a go-getter. That phrase defines Rachel. She asked the right questions to figure out exactly what we wanted and has made our move to Phoenix easy.

      - Eric Maki Desert Hills AZ
    • Rachel was fabulous! She is a true professional and provided superior service. Always on time and proactive in researching all properties and options. We look forward to using her services again in the future. She is a real winner!

      - Tom and Dale Mitchell Phoenix AZ
    • Great to work with, quick to respond to all questions and concerns. Tough on negotiations, where she always looked out for our needs and best interest. So happy we met her, she is very professional and personable. We will use her again in the future! I recommend you do also!

      - Joe and Carol Morgan Payson AZ
    • We couldnt have asked for a better real estate agent. Rachel is extremely thorough and advocates on behalf of her clients. We sent Rachel a list of homes we liked and within hours she put together a schedule to view houses that weekend. While looking at houses, Rachel caught on to what we liked and didnt like and was very knowledgeable on how much things would cost in the long run (replacing windows, etc.). After we made an offer on a home, Rachel seamlessly ran interference between all parties involved. Post closing, Rachel has been available and has frequently gone the extra mile to help us out with a few things including stopping by the house midday to check on a repair issue. We highly recommend Rachel for your AZ real estate needs, she is a superstar!

      - Matthew Warner and Andrew Medina Phoenix AZ
    • Rachel Russo is the best thing that happened to my wish to buy a new home. Her professionalism and competency are outstanding. She kept my needs first and formost in all of our time working together.1

      - Janna Ayers Phoenix
    • Rachel Russo and her team stayed on top of the purchase from the start to the finish. They kept us updated and aware of anything we needed to do. She answered all of our questions and if she didnt know the answer she would find out the answer. Thank you!!

      - Jim and Cindy Simmons
    • The first day my wife and I decided to hire Rachel as our realtor, she took seven to eight hours to show us between fifteen to twenty homes; this was absolutely crazy to me, due to our previous realtor only showing us four houses in one day (his lack of commitment, time, and willingness to help was why we left him). I was and still am absolutely blown away by her unbelievable commitment to helping us find our home! As for her communication, she promptly responds to any phone calls or texts at almost any time of the day. Now that the home buying process is over, she has given us the information for her personal handyman, painter, etc., as well as has offered to help with any design ideas for our home. There is really no better way of serving a potential buyer(s) of a home than the Rachel Russo way!!

      - Justin and Oakley Rollefson
    • Rachel Russo was a lifesaver. We had previously had our house listed for 5 months with another Realtor and nothing was happening. When we found Rachel, she sold our house within 3 weeks after taking over our listing. She is professional, kind and extremely knowledgeable. She is the only Realtor in AZ that I would ever recommend.

      - Danny and Tamara Meaux Phoenix AZ
    • I really don't know what to say to explain how I feel about Rachel and the service she provided without making you think she walks on water. I guess now that I have had dealings with her I would say without a doubt I would get on a waiting list to obtain her services again.

      - Charlie Simes Laveen AZ
    • Rachel Russo was on top of my buying this condo from beginning to close of escrow. She represented me superbly and even caught discrepancies the title company missed.

      - Katie Angelos Scottsdale
    • She went above and beyond to make any and all accommodations for my wife and I, and to make the entire process easy and comfortable for us! She helped us in every aspect of the process.

      - Chris and Natalie Mooney Peoria AZ
    • I can honestly say that choosing Rachel as our realtor was the best decision we ever made for selling the home we lived in for 27 years and buying our new home. We will be praising her to everyone we know. Rachel is not your average realtor, she is certainly on a higher level. She worked non-stop to make the process easier, more profitable and less stressful for us. She was there for us in a blink of an eye and ready to show us properties, respond to questions and make invaluable suggestions. Rachel and her team of professionals were attentive, knowledgeable and indispensable. We are very happy we found her!Less
