As your local Arizona American Family Insurance agent, I believe there's more to insurance than the policy itself. It's about providing dependable protection and service. That's why earning your trust is my policy.  We have a tremendous homeowners policy that provides a great price with excellent coverage.  My agency has been recognized by JD Power and Associates as one of the premiere insurance agencies in the state of Arizona. - Luke Shafer

Luke is my personal insurance agent.  I switched to American Family about four years ago for their coverage.  The agent I was insured through decided to move on to other ventures and highly recommended Luke. I have been more than happy with his great customer service, product knowledge and follow through on every request I make.  He has insured a large number of my clients and friends and the feedback is always good.  - Jon Hegreness

At ICA some of the types of appraisals we are certified to do include FHA, Uniform Residential Appraisal Reports (URAR 1004), Desktop Underwriter Quantitative Analysis Reports (2055 Interior/Exterior), Small Residential Income Property Appraisal Reports (1025) and Income Analysis Reports. We also strive to complete all orders within 24 hours of the set inspection.

I have leaned on Scott for years when I am doing a Comparative Market Analysis on a property where the numbers are just not lining up.  He is very knowledgeable in his line of work and one of the best appraisers I have ever worked with.  He has appraised properties for our clients and each time our clients have been very happy with the entire transaction.  He is always on top of new policy, new trends and the ever changing Arizona Real Estate market.  - Jon Hegreness

First American Title Insurance Company is the largest subsidiary in The First American Corporation family. We are the largest title insurer in the nation and offer title services through a network of more than 300 offices and 4,000 agents throughout the United States, as well as in Australia, the Bahama Islands, Canada, Guam, Mexico, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and the United Kingdom. Closing services are also available in many First American offices.

I have worked with many Title Insurance offices throughout the valley and continue to do so, but this is the office that gets the majority of my files.  I have been working with this office since my second transaction as a licensed agent and continue to send them a deal or two every month.  Although their location is not convenient to many of my clients they do offer to sign my clients at any branch office or at a location of my client's choice, such as their home.  They are very knowledgeable and on top of things and time and again my closings are easier at this office.  They were referred to me by an experienced agent when I was new and would recommend them to anyone.  - Jon Hegreness


www.landamhomewarranty.com/

So straight up...I am struggling with the fact that this company, or any other home warranty company is on a page called "Trusted" anything.  For years I was a fan of Home Warranty companies and this was one of my favorites.  Lately I hear many complaints about these companies not covering items that I would considered covered per the policy.  I will not go into specifics, but I describe home warranty plans as a roll of the dice these days.  If they cover a large item you will be glad you ordered the warranty.  If they decline to cover an item you wish or thought would be covered then you will be mad you ordered the policy at all.  I have a hard time putting my name to any warranty company at this point, but if I had to recommend one it would be LandAmerica.  After saying all that I would recommend ordering a Warranty Policy on any resale purchase for at least the first year.  The relative low cost can pay off big, especially in a market filled with Bank Owned sales and no property history at the time of purchase.  Get One!!

I am truly passionate about my profession, and the result is that nearly 100% of my business is by referral from satisfied clients, trusted financial advisers and the most experienced Realtors. I have closed loans across the United States, and most of my business is in Arizona, but I am licensed in all 50 States and the District of Columbia.  My mission is to guide you through the entire home loan process so that you feel confident about and knowledgeable of the choices you make and the options available for your financing strategy. With many years and a wide range of experience in the mortgage industry, my dedicated team and I am ready and willing to guide you each and every step of the way. We understand that this decision is not about any house, it is about your home.  You only think about home financing a few times in your life, we think about it every single day. It's your home and your future. It's our profession and our passion. We're ready to work for your best interest.  Financing your home is one of the largest financial commitments that you will make in your life. Many people view that as meaning just another monthly payment. We can help you realize that your home is truly a valuable financial tool, and will help you achieve the dreams and plans you envision for your future. Let me help you, with my knowledge, experience and passion.

Jeff has helped more of my clients purchase or refinance a home than any other lender, period!  He is very knowledgeable and works hard to make sure that each client gets the very best loan they can for their situation.  When a client is not able to get a loan through other lenders Jeff comes through for me most of the time.  He has helped my sellers as well by quickly getting their buyer a loan when it looked like we were going to loose our buyer and have to start over.  I would recommend Jeff with total confidence.  - Jon Hegreness

WEED CONTROL

I have had Skip spray the yard of every home I have lived in for the past 10 years (As of 2010).  He comes out once a year and sprays the entire yard and we hardly pull a single weed the rest of the year.  The product he uses is pretty darned good.  He can sometimes be hard to get in touch with, but the price and product are worth the little effort it might take to reach him.
