I’m Jason Fox, founder of Fox Real Estate in Tucson, Arizona, and co-founder of The Madrona Group, a John L. Scott real estate brokerage serving the Greater Seattle area.
I’ve spent more than 20 years in real estate, marketing, technology, and brokerage leadership. Over that time, I’ve helped hundreds of people buy and sell homes, built a nationally recognized real estate team, owned real estate brokerages, trained real estate professionals, and learned that the fundamentals of this business are actually pretty simple: know what you’re doing, tell people the truth, communicate like crazy, and never forget whose money is on the line.
I built most of my real estate career in Washington. I was born in Everett and spent most of my life in the Puget Sound area, so Seattle and Snohomish County aren't markets I learned from a spreadsheet. They're home.
Today, my business has expanded to Tucson, Arizona.
My wife Sarah and I made the move from the Seattle area to Tucson ourselves. We fell in love with the desert, the mountains, the weather, and the lifestyle, and eventually decided to make Southern Arizona home.
That experience also gave me an entirely different perspective on relocation.
Moving 1,500 miles isn't just a real estate transaction. You're trying to figure out which neighborhoods fit your lifestyle, what homes cost, how Arizona houses are built, what to know about pools and HVAC systems, how HOAs work, what your electric bill might look like in July, and about a hundred other questions you don't realize you have until you're actually doing it.
That became a big part of why I created Fox Real Estate.
Today, I help buyers and sellers throughout Greater Tucson, with a particular focus on luxury real estate and relocation. I work throughout Tucson, Catalina Foothills, Oro Valley, Marana, Dove Mountain, Stone Canyon, and other luxury, golf, and gated communities throughout Southern Arizona.
I also continue to serve my longtime Washington clients through The Madrona Group, which gives me a unique ability to help people moving between Seattle and Tucson. I understand both ends of that move because I've worked in both markets and I've personally made it.
Marketing is another big part of what I bring to the table.
Before focusing exclusively on residential sales, I founded real estate marketing companies, worked in real estate technology, served in title and escrow marketing, trained agents, built real estate websites, created video, and developed a nationally recognized real estate marketing blog.
That background heavily influences how I sell homes today. I don't believe putting a property in the MLS and waiting for something to happen qualifies as a marketing strategy. Great presentation, positioning, photography, video, digital marketing, search visibility, social media, and understanding how buyers actually discover homes all matter.
But none of that replaces good representation.
Sometimes my job is to tell a seller something they don't necessarily want to hear. Sometimes it's telling a buyer, “I wouldn't buy this house.” Sometimes it's finding a creative way to put a complicated transaction together.
That's the part of real estate I still enjoy after all these years.
I've been fortunate to receive national recognition from RealTrends and repeated recognition among John L. Scott's top-producing real estate professionals. I'm proud of that, but production numbers aren't how I measure whether I did a good job.
The question that matters is whether my client would trust me enough to call me again or send someone they care about my way.
If you're buying or selling in Tucson, exploring Tucson luxury real estate, buying or selling in Greater Seattle, or considering a move between Washington and Arizona, I'd be happy to help.
