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.
