About Ranee

Ranee is a new face to the Desert Mountain Russ Lyon Sotheby's International Realty team, but she is no stranger to real estate. Since 2005, she has been involved in residential resale, new build, design, and staging. She has also purchased, renovated, furnished, and set up high-end resort rentals across the country. Her broad knowledge base of “all things real estate” makes her comfortable in any transaction and brings advantageous expertise to her clients. In addition to real estate licenses in Arizona and Minnesota, Ranee also holds an MBA. She had a successful career in finance, has held leadership positions on the boards of several non-profit organizations, and was an elected director and 5-year board chair of a public entity. As a resident and member of Desert Mountain for the past 12 years, Ranee can’t speak highly enough of the community, its amenities, or its residents. There is something here for everyone, and that includes its diverse real estate offerings. Ranee has also researched and visited the many surrounding communities and amenities in the broader North Scottsdale area. Whether you are interested in selling, buying, or renting a residence, Ranee’s client-focused approach to transactions ensures that she understands your needs, wants, expectations, and desired outcomes from your first meeting. She prides herself on her communication, analytic skills, and work ethic. No one will work harder or smarter for you. Ranee and her husband Randy have four children and eight grandchildren (so far!). They share a love of golf, hiking, and music. Their most recent “bucket list” adventure was hiking the Rim to Rim at the Grand Canyon in October 2024 – clearly one of the most beautiful pieces of real estate in the world! Ranee is very active in their community, serving on Desert Mountain committees, playing on the women’s interclub travel team and the women’s 18-hole golf league. She and her husband are avid supporters of the Desert Mountain Desperados, Desert Mountain Community Foundation, Russ Lyon Foundation and other local non-profits.

If you want it done right Ranee is the one for you

Ranee orchestrated both the sale of our home and the purchase of the new one with steadfastness, skilled negotiation and made sure that all loose ends were tied up completely . She was instrumental in achieving the highest value for both transactions. If you want your real estate transaction done right, Ranee is the one for you.

Ranee was amazing throughout the entire purchasing process!!

Ranee was amazing throughout the entire purchasing process!!

From understanding our desires/needs, researching homes (both those available and those coming on the market), communicating her findings, showing us homes that had "made the first cut", to completing the purchase, Ranee was amazing!! She understands the market, has great insight into the community, and worked tirelessly to find the home of our "dreams". She was extremely well organized when we arrived in Scottsdale to look at homes and kept everyone focused on finding the "perfect" home. During the purchase negotiations she was very prudent with her advice and knowledgeable in the process. She organized the home inspection, monitored the repairs needed, and was extremely helpful throughout the closing process. She communicated with us on a regular basis. In addition to fully understanding the real estate market, she was equally knowledgeable regarding all things regarding Desert Mountain (membership application, social activities, golf events, etc.). We will be forever indebted to Ranee for finding our dream home in the desert.!!

Extremely knowledgeable about the Desert Mountain community!

Extremely knowledgeable about the Desert Mountain community!

Ranee started our home search process by really listening and working to understand our specific needs. She spent a lot of prep time before we even began touring properties. I appreciate that Ranee is part of the Desert Mountain community and was able to share both her personal and professional insights. Her knowledge of each Desert Mountain village was extremely valuable to us! She always came prepared and was persistent in getting answers to all our questions. I also was impressed with her warm, professional rapport with the seller agents. I would definitely recommend Ranee to my friends!
