Looking to buy a home in the Scottsdale area from the Chicago area would seem to be quite the challenge for us, but it was not thanks to Brian Doherty. Brian’s knowledge and expertise of homes in the Scottsdale area was tremendous. He took all our needs into consideration and directed us to homes that he thought we would like. We viewed many homes of interest by Brian using FaceTime. Brian’s insight and opinion helped make our decision on which home to purchase. We were successful on our long distance challenge to find a home in Scottsdale and we so enjoyed working with Brian.

My wife and I do not live locally, so the task of finding a new luxury home presented some challenges. We met Brian Doherty at an open house he was conducting. Because that home did not meet our needs, Brian offered to help us find one that might. He had some homes in mind and we had identified a few on our own. He would quickly make the arrangements necessary for viewing the homes, and he always came prepared with relevant facts and figures about each property, so we had a sound starting position as we viewed each property. Once the property we wanted to buy had been identified, Brian served a truly invaluable role. I believe because of his legal background, he was able to offer valuable insight into how the offer should be structured to communicate to the sellers that we were serious buyers - even though our offer was significantly below the asking price. He also recommended negotiating steps which allowed us to acquire personal property in the sale. Brian remained diligent throughout the inspection process and was instrumental in ensuring that the outcome of that process produced a reasonably acceptable result. My wife and I would highly recommended Brian Doherty to anyone interested in Arizona real estate!

We originally met Brian Doherty at an open house he was conducting in Cave Creek. In addition to liking the home (and eventually buying it!), we found his observations and advice to always be VERY objective. There is no question his legal background gives him a “leg up” on most realtors when it comes time to negotiate. In our opinion, he is a professional negotiator. We trust him fully and would highly recommend him to anyone thinking of buying property in the Phoenix area.

After looking at a lot of houses on Zillow, I contacted Brian Doherty for some help. It was the best thing I ever could have done. I am from another country and I knew absolutely nothing about the process of buying real estate in the US. Brian not only helped me find a good place and negotiate a good deal, he helped immensely in working with the banker, the inspections, and made extra efforts so I fully understood the process. Every time I called, or emailed him, he was there to answer my questions and help me. He gets the highest recommendation from me. All the stars possible!!

My long term goal was to find a special home for my retirement in the North Phoenix area. Because I currently live on the East coast, finding a property in Arizona and attending to all the details so a reasonable deal could be struck seemed like an impossible challenge. I met Brian Doherty at an open house about two years ago and shared with him not only my ideas for a retirement property, but my timeline, which at that time, was anything but immediate! He stayed in contact and would periodically email me information on properties to consider. When I finally identified the one I liked, he really went to work for me. He provided detailed information about the property; viewed it repeatedly with family members; provided solid advice on structuring an offer; arranged all the inspections; dealt with the title company and he stayed on top of all the details. Very important to me, when I called or emailed him, he responded without delay. I highly recommend Brian Doherty as a real estate professional!

It was a pleasure to have Brian represent me in the purchase of my new home. After moving to Scottsdale several months ago, I started to focus on what I was looking for in a home. I met Brian at an open house and he listened to me from the moment we first spoke. I always felt he understood what I was trying to accomplish and that he would represent me professionally. Very shortly after our initial meeting, a home was identified and Brian showed it to me. He came prepared with extensive data on the property and the community, information that was helpful in the decision making process – particularly how an offer to purchase should be structured. I am so pleased I met Brian, and I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking to buy a home in the Scottsdale area.

My wife and I are working on buying a substantial property in North Scottsdale. We have selected Brian to represent our interests because we have found him to be the best. We are not kids and have had numerous experiences with real estate agents through the years. None of them has ever provided us with such unbiased objective advice about property as does Brian Doherty. He is truly an expert in the area, having extensive knowledge of the neighborhoods, services and local amenities. He always has his clients' best interests in mind. We consider him a trusted partner throughout the real estate process.
