I must say that working with Lesley Vann was such a pleasure. She was always more than on top of things and willing and able to do her best in my interest. She is most professional and unlike many of the realtors I have known in the past who want to just sign you up and then not do much after that in order to sell or market your home. I was and am most pleased to have had her for my selling agent. You can’t go wrong with Lesley!

My husband and I had a wonderful experience with Lesley. We needed a realtor that showed initiative and would guide us to the right area in this big city as we were coming from Texas. Lesley listened to our requirements and shared many options giving us an honest and thorough overview of various areas. As our ideas changed she provided more homes to review. She was tireless and genuinely had our interest as a priority through the whole process. She takes care of all the details making the process as easy as possible even packing a cooler full of drinks and snacks" just in case." After closing she offered her knowledge of the area if there was any service we needed or questions we had. Now, five months later we know we made the right choice in a home and a realtor! We highly recommend Lesley Vann. You will not find a realtor that will work harder and bring top notch professionalism to your sale or purchase.  

Dr. S. & D. Erikson 

"We hired Lesley Vann to sell our home of 18 years because of her genuine care for her clients. Lesley helped us at all phases: from helping us choose the right time to sell to shopping with me to stage our home. Our home sold in 6 weeks, thanks to her eye for details and her work at marketing our place. She is a professional and a natural at what she does. Thank you, Lesley."

I was referred to Lesley through a personal friend. I owned my home for 12 years and my wife and I finally decided it was time to sell. We were initially nervous about being able to break even or make a profit in this market. When Lesley contacted us, we were hesitant at first since we have never gone through this process. Needless to say, Lesley was very up front and personal. She never made any promises except that she would sell our home. We informed Lesley of our requirements and to be honest we had specific requirements to sell our home especially since we did not need to sell our home it was more of a nice to do versus we were in a place where we had to sell. with this in mind we set a bottom line. Lesley stuck to that line and she fought daily with potential buyers. She did the right thing and informed us of every offer which came in....to which I became a little frustrated about that....but she was being truthful and transparent which literally surprised me in this day and age. I value honesty above most things and this really made me believe in Lesley and her firm. During my home sell, I was/am going through medical issues due to job actions...Lesley was always accommodating and willing to work around those issues in order to achieve our end-state. Never did she deviate from the end-state and when necessary, she made contact to provide input to help me stay on track. Lesley knows her market! She knows where to make an adjustment....AND....she is willing to listen and receive input even from someone who doesn't know the market. Her team that works with her is awesome to say the least. They worked diligently and efficiently to accomplish our goal. The entire process went smooth. I live about 4 hours away from Phoenix and not once did I have to drive to Phoenix to deal with any issues.....and that is if there ever were issues. If there were, then Lesley dealt with them and I was never bothered! I call that SERVICE! Lesley was always available for me to reach her if needed. in fact, she actually called me more than any of my family.....which doesn't say much, but we stayed in contact atleast twice a week. She texted almost every day with updates. Negotiation....yeah she is in all respectfulness.....a dog on a scent trail. We gave her our bottom line well before we even posted pictures of our home. Within the first 72 hours we received an offer well below our line and Lesley informed us and then went to work. We declined it and then on the third offer which was once again below our bottom line, Lesley stepped in with boxing gloves. The Buyer brought up their offer by 13K, that may not sound like a lot but when it comes down to what is needed to meet a bottom line it is a huge amount. Now, I will give credit to the buyer and understanding the situation and why we had a bottom line which Lesley provided that information to them at the right moment. And it was just the right touch at the right time. Lesley, You are awesome and I truly appreciate everything that you did for my Family and I. Thank you for bearing with me through my medical issues and all the military issues that I was dealing with. I cannot thank you enough and when I am in phoenix, we will get together and have lunch. And I will definitely work with you and your firm when I buy a home in Europe. God Bless You.

To Whom It May Concern,

We are writing to express our pleasure with real estate agent Lesley Vann who represented us in our recent purchase of our condo in Scottsdale, AZ.

Lesley guided us through the entire process, from searching for the perfect condo to making the offer and closing the deal. We credit her with a smooth and stress free experience.

Lesley has been one of the most hardworking and attentive realtors we have worked with, not to mention very personable. She always makes it a point to ask about our daughter and really connect on a personal level.

To reiterate, we are nothing but pleased with Lesley Vann and would highly recommend her to anyone and everyone.

Sincerely,

Marc and Mercedes Steffes

Lesley has been relentless in finding us a home within our perimeters. She knows the areas around Phoenix and what is available - sending us listings daily.

Highly recommended!

Lesley,

Congratulations to you! The results you had on this transaction are a sign that you nailed this listing perfectly regarding the 4 P’s of Photography, Promotion, Presentation and Price. The 5th “P” is Patience which is reflected in the ~60 days on market and 30 days to close. I’m sure there were challenges bust most importantly, you got it done for your clients. Job well done Lesley.

Sotheby’s should be proud to have you associated with them. I know I would be!!

All the best,

To whom it may concern,

We all know it takes a team to produce magnetic and profound results when real estate property photographs join with distinctive properties! It was my extreme good fortune to have met and worked with Jessica Peterson at the profound moment when I was "giving birth" to a new listing of global significance. Jessica, a total professional, arrived at the gated estate in the late afternoon, to do the daytime shoot. She was then able to capture magnificent sunset views for a long period of time, followed by an evening photo shoot where the entire back of the property was illuminated.

With almost 7000 square feet of momentous architecture and interior design, Jessica handled this large assignment with aplomb. Not only did she progress with grace and ease through this demanding set of three back-to-back photo shoots, Jessica worked with such dedication and artistry, that she did not seem to notice the hours passing. We all left there around 11 PM, after, (what I would later learn would be), world – famous photographs had been taken. Jessica's photographs went all over the Internet and around the world with marketing totaling almost $100,000, which showcased Jessica's art and artistry. Her photographs spoke for themselves, revealing a property of almost stupendous beauty.

Jessica's photographs touched the heart of the family who would become its buyers, and they purchased this property sight unseen (for a town's record-breaking sum), from the galvanizing and stirring quality of Jessica's photographs, alone. The rest is history.

Thank you, Jessica. Words cannot describe my gratitude for our work together.

You have a true and profound gift of photographic excellence. Thank you for bringing this gift to the real estate community, and to the world.

With gratitude,

Lesley Vann, Russ Lyon Sotheby's International Realty.

Lesley Vann is an excellent realtor. She sold our luxury home within 4 months. She had her photographer over before we established the online sites displaying our home. She brought the shoppers to us by establishing tours with realtors and lenders, who in turn promoted the property to interested buyers. Lesley worked on our home to show its best attributes, as we received Best of Tour 3 times, which was impressive for visitors. Leslie is an outstanding realtor, who is committed to her profession, sincerely very personable, but also very interested in what you think and wants your input.
