Steve Valkenaar. Great realtor. Steve knows that much of his business is by repeat customers and word of mouth. He pays attention to his clients and treats them like he would want to be treated. He first helped my sister in-law who recommended him to her brother who in turn recommended him to his brother-in-law (me) and now I’m recommending Steve to you. Unlike other realtors who somehow are scarce after the sale is completed, Steve gets major kudos for follow-up long after the sale. It’s those little things that go a long way to making someone want to retain his expertise for the future and have others use him.

Recently my wife and I purchased a home and Steve was the driving force behind the sale. Our purchase was guided by Steve's expertise in real estate, along with his excellent communication skills; he always followed through with every detail, answering our questions quickly. We highly recommend Steve and are extremely satisfied with the due diligence he demonstrated during our home purchase.

Steve was absolutely outstanding. He is very knowledgeable in many aspects of real estate, zoning, building codes... He is patient and understanding during the purchase process, which can get a bit stressful at times. I would highly recommend Steve to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

My husband and I are first time home owners. We feel so grateful to have found a relator who is honest, patient, tenacious, and reliable. Steve went above and beyond to help us find a home that we love! Every time we called him with questions or concerns, he either answered his phone immediately or called back no more than 10 mins later! He is extremely professional and a man of his words. When he says he will call you back in 10 mins, he really does! I swear, we asked a bazillion questions....im sure we even asked the same questions repeatedly but Steve was understanding and worked tirelessly to help us. Every time we did a walk through in a house, he would point out the negatives and positives. When we asked him a "What would you do?" question, he answered truthfully without sugar coating any details. His actions prove that he genuinely cares about his clients. Not once did we feel stressed or overwhelmed. Steve made our entire home buying process so easy and stood by us (literally, even after signing all the paperwork and after getting our keys) up until the very last day. We are sooooo happy and in love with our home! We highly recommend Steve Valkenaar as a relator! He's extraordinary! We dont plan on moving but if we have to sell our house in the future,we will use Steve!

Exceptional Realtor – Made Our Out-of-State Move Seamless!
We recently relocated from out of state, and working with Steve and his team was the best decision we could have made. From the very beginning, he was incredibly knowledgeable, trustworthy, and responsive—qualities that are especially important when you're navigating a move from afar.
Steve communicated quickly, keeping us informed every step of the way. His attention to detail gave us complete confidence throughout the buying process. He went above and beyond to ensure everything was handled smoothly, even coordinating things locally that we couldn’t manage from a distance.
If you're moving to the Phoenix area or buying from out of state, I can't recommend Steve highly enough. It was truly a five-star experience!

We were looking from our home in Ohio for a second home in Arizona and felt overwhelmed with the many choices and decisions. We talked with many realtors and chose Steve because it was clear that he was truly interested in finding out what our wants and preferences were and saw his role as a knowledgeable guide. He was able to help us clarify quickly what we wanted in a second home and was able to point out strengths and weaknesses of each home that allowed us to begin making an informed decision. His knowledge of the area, the integrity in which he answered our questions and the professionalism he exhibited throughout the negotiation process in purchasing our home were exemplary and made the experience a pleasant one. Steve researched the value of nearby home and enabled us to understand the true value of each home he considered. We have already recommended him to our friends and encourage potential home buyers and sellers to use his services.

Review 2: A change of life event happend causing me to have to sell my home and move to a different state. Seeing this I called the only realtor I will ever use, Steve. I have refered Steve multiple times since the last time I used him and he never disappoints. This time for me was different, Steve went above and beyond and not only helped me stage and sell my home in record time (Under 24hrs!) at more then asking price but he also found a great realtor in the new state I was moving to. I can't say enough about his work ethic, customer service and results. There is no other realtor I will ever use for Arizona real estate. Samuel Vill Review 1: Home buying is one of the most important and stressful things any individual will accomplish in their life time. Seeing this, one needs a great realtor to get you through the process. Steve has been one of many realtors I have worked with in the past and I can say he was the best. Steve and I met at an open house in the area my wife and I were looking in since we wanted to move into the scottsdale area. Steve was kind and polite but you knew he was extremely smart and had a good head on his shoulders. Later that week Steve came to our house and showed us how he above all other realtors was going to market and sell our house better then anyone I have seen in the past. After meeting Steve that night we knew that we were in good hands. Steve had our house on the market quickly and started our search for our new home in short time. Long story short, Steve found us a fixer upper exactly in the area we were looking for and negotiated the best deal possible for it. Through the negotiation I was very quick to make decisions because my wife and I didn't want to loose the house but Steve told us exactly how we should play it and we ended up purchasing it for less then what I was expecting. At this point we had our new home and the stress was on to sell our house while we were re modeling our new one. During this time I would call Steve on a daily basis letting him know how stressed I was and how we needed to lower the price so we wouldn't have two mortgages. Steve kept assuring me that everything was going to be ok and through many showings and offers we sold our home for a great price. I thought for sure Steve wouldn't want to work with me again seeing how I bugged him constantly but we still talk to this day and I can't wait to work with him again. Their is no question that I would refer him to everyone looking to sell, buy, or do both like we did. Steve has to be the best real estate agent in Arizona and you would be crazy to work with someone else.

Steve helped my husband and I buy our first home in Phoenix, Arizona. To say that Steve knows his stuff would be an understatement. Being in my 20s and never having been through the process before, I definitely had a lot to learn. Steve was very knowledgeable about the different loan processes, geographic markets, and foundational expectations needed for a quality home. His attention to details was extremely helpful when looking at houses as he was able to point out potential future issues and address what to stay away from. Steve was also very accommodating to our busy schedules and would often meet us at the locations after work and on weekends.
We truly learned so much about the house-buying process from him because he explained it to us in a way that we would be able to comprehend, and talked us through each step of the process. He is very personable and fun to work with; it’s like working with one of your friends! Steve wanted the best for my husband and I and it showed when he worked diligently to get us our perfect home. This was quite a special moment for us, and I am very grateful to have had Steve guide us through this opportunity.

Great experience, Steve was thoughtful, helpful and did find us the right home for us, responsive, just cannot say enough good things about Steve. Would highly recommend him, especially if you want someone who can help during and after the sale with a wide range of associates that can help with your home after you have made your purchase. All around great experience, we are from out of state but Steve made it easy for us.

He is knowledgeable, kind and a true professional.

Steve worked very hard for us. He took us to multiple locations and was available to show us some of the properties again when we had some unanswered questions. He never pushed us towards a property. He always had a calm demeanor and was very supportive of our choices. We had several complications arise during our purchase process. Steve’s knowledge of the process and how to get things done in a timely manner was a great comfort during a stressful time. We trusted Steve’s integrity and because we did we ended up with the home we had dreamed of.

Out of all the realtors I have dealt with, Steve Valkenaar stands out amongst them all. He is the best. He has become our family’s realtor. He is reliable, personable, and professional. He went beyond what was expected during the process of buying our home; he is interested in helping people through the process. When an unexpected and unusual comment came up on the engineer’s report, he spent a lot of time researching the issue and helping us understand the problem. In addition, he continued to provide assistance well past the purchase of our home. Most would not spend the time to provide such help. My family and I will definitely call Steve again when we are in need of a realtor.

From our first meeting through the close of escrow, Steve was extremely helpful and easy to work with. I really felt I could trust his opinion and never felt pressured or like I was taking too much of his time, looking at numerous properties. Steve has a keen eye for detail and always pointed out important things that I overlooked. His extensive experience and knowledge in all aspects of the real estate industry really helped me to make a decision with choosing a suitable investment property. I definitely plan to work with Steve again in the future, and I would surely refer him to anyone in need of real estate expertise in the Arizona area.

Steve kept us up to date with everything that was going on with both our house and finding the new one. He would answer all our questions and explained everything easily.

Searching for real estate can be a real challenge. As a first-time buyer, it felt like a daunting task, I don’t have the experience (even though I like to think I’m no dummy) I had prices in my head after seeing a property, the old I'd pay this much for that routine.
This is where Steve is an absolute expert, his knowledge of the trade is impeccable, and he is kind and gentle with his words. “I'd say I want to offer this much for that house” I knew he was thinking how the hell did you come up with that? His kindness and patience show.
During our search for a home, I was stumbling through properties. Eventually, we found the one, I did the same old thing and thought up a price (this time I didn’t blurt it out), and Steve put in the work. His communication is one of his many strengths. After speaking with the selling parties involved he put together his Comps and we came up with an offer. I was stunned by his knowledge of the Area and all aspects of home ownership, knowledge of Well agreements to septic types, easements, and setbacks
His eye and attention to detail especially helped with finding my home. Our offer was less than my id pay this for that routine and it was accepted!!!
When we walked through he took notes and never missed a beat. His history of past home building gives him an edge. He can see the smallest flaw and attention to detail. This helped in our offer proposal and overall experience.

Steve Valkenaar is the epitome of what a top notch Realtor should be. When Steve first came to my home I had been unsuccessful in selling my home with another company/Realtor. His research and marketing plan earned my confidence so I employed him. Within 5 days we had an offer. He made a complex process simple and efficient, valuing my time and always keeping me informed. For my new home, Steve made sure that he understood what I wanted in detail. As others have noted, he is observant, knowledgeable and pointed out various features—things I didn’t always notice, positive and negative. I loved his VIP Home Hunter service that was tailored just for me. He literally “went the extra mile” to make sure that I felt comfortable in choosing my next home. Downsizing as a widow, this was a difficult process for me, but Steve was patient, accommodating, and I never felt pressured. Steve was working on an offer for me when he called to let me know he discovered another listing he thought I should see. We looked at it the next day and it was just what I needed. Again, he negotiated a price that was realistic using his market knowledge, data, and statistics to support our offer.
So what is the epitome of a great realtor? Well-prepared, prompt, knowledgeable, observant, patient, kind, communicates well and an excellent negotiator. I highly recommend Steve Valkenaar to anyone who wants to experience a pleasant and smooth purchase or sale.

Steve was so helpful in my first home-buying transaction. He was always available for any inquiries and was very easy to approach. Steve is extremely knowledgeable about the real estate market and the home-buying process, which made this undertaking less stressful. In short, Steve is a great person, a hard worker, and a spectacular realtor who always has his client's needs in mind.

Great experience, Steve was thoughtful, helpful and did find us the right home for us, responsive, just cannot say enough good things about Steve. Would highly recommend him, especially if you want someone who can help during and after the sale with a wide range of associates that can help with your home after you have made your purchase. All around great experience, we are from out of state but Steve made it easy for us.

Searching for real estate can be a real challenge. As a first-time buyer, it felt like a daunting task, I don’t have the experience (even though I like to think I’m no dummy) I had prices in my head after seeing a property, the old I'd pay this much for that routine.
This is where Steve is an absolute expert, his knowledge of the trade is impeccable, and he is kind and gentle with his words. “I'd say I want to offer this much for that house” I knew he was thinking how the hell did you come up with that? His kindness and patience show.
During our search for a home, I was stumbling through properties. Eventually, we found the one, I did the same old thing and thought up a price (this time I didn’t blurt it out), and Steve put in the work. His communication is one of his many strengths. After speaking with the selling parties involved he put together his Comps and we came up with an offer. I was stunned by his knowledge of the Area and all aspects of home ownership, knowledge of Well agreements to septic types, easements, and setbacks
His eye and attention to detail especially helped with finding my home. Our offer was less than my id pay this for that routine and it was accepted!!!
When we walked through he took notes and never missed a beat. His history of past home building gives him an edge. He can see the smallest flaw and attention to detail. This helped in our offer proposal and overall experience.

Exceptional Realtor – Made Our Out-of-State Move Seamless!
We recently relocated from out of state, and working with Steve and his team was the best decision we could have made. From the very beginning, he was incredibly knowledgeable, trustworthy, and responsive—qualities that are especially important when you're navigating a move from afar.
Steve communicated quickly, keeping us informed every step of the way. His attention to detail gave us complete confidence throughout the buying process. He went above and beyond to ensure everything was handled smoothly, even coordinating things locally that we couldn’t manage from a distance.
If you're moving to the Phoenix area or buying from out of state, I can't recommend Steve highly enough. It was truly a five-star experience!
