We heard about Craig and Stacey from my sister as we had no previous relationship with a realtor...at least not one we'd consider using. My main requirement was that whoever we chose was a professional full-time realtor...not someone who decided they would get a license to sell homes to make some extra money occasionally. We figured starting off with a clean slate with someone new couldn't hurt. We were in a position of 'wanting' to sell our house, but not 'needing' to sell it, so if we didn't think we could get our price, there'd be nothing lost.
Craig and Stacey came to our home to make their 'presentation' and they couldn't have been more prepared. Not only were they ready to 'sell' themselves to us, but already had the basis of a plan to market and sell our house. We all agreed on a listing price and off we went with fingers crossed.
As preparations were made as the listing date approached, Stacey took the time to visit with us to give staging ideas and advice prior to the pictures being taken. We were able to mostly utilize the items and furnishings already in our home by simply rearranging them. Once we were done, we had a number of "why didn't we think of that" moments. Stacey's got great insight for that kind of stuff.
Next came the pictures. The photographer showed up on time and did his thing, then waited until twilight to take some drone pictures. After seeing the incredible results, we were wondering why we were selling this beautiful home.
Once the pictures were received, the 'plan' was set in motion. The listing hit MLS as "Coming Soon" and we immediately received a couple of "can we see it early" requests. We didn't deny anyone and ended up receiving a very flattering offer before it was even "officially" listed on MLS. We accepted the offer and the rest is history. But...
That was only half of our chaotic home selling/buying journey. We quickly needed to find somewhere to move and Stacey made herself available to assist us with finding a home in the area we were looking at...on the completely opposite side of town. We did NOT want to have to move twice, so the trick was to find a new home and close on it in the same timeframe as the transaction on our current home. We were fortunate to be able to find a home that fit our needs, both as a home and in our timeframe.
We all know how stressful buying/selling a home and moving can be and we certainly experienced our share during this process. However, I am completely convinced that it could have been exponentially more stressful had we not had the FULL ENGAGEMENT of our realtor to get us through a very aggressive timeframe. They were always on time and were very communicative through the whole process. We were never left wondering what was going on because of their ability to 'keep us in the loop'.
We (my wife and I) hope to have found our long-term retirement home, so it's not likely we'll be looking to buy or sell another home. But, if we do, we'll certainly not hesitate to contact Craig and Stacey again. Nor will we hesitate to recommend them to anyone asking if we know a realtor. They've set a precedent in my mind that would be difficult for anyone else to match (based on my previous experiences).
If you need a realtor, do yourself a favor and contact these two.

I live in California and was concerned about purchasing an Arizona property on the internet. The Akers Team made the process as smooth as possible. Every facet of the transaction was handled efficiently from the search for a home to the final papers. They are very friendly, professional, and have an excellent knowledge of the Phoenix area. I highly recommend this team.

Ed Christofolo was amazing! He was always there for us no matter what time of the day. He was very professional, caring, and worked very hard to help sell our home. We were surprised how quickly he was able to sell our home and get a price that we would not have expected. I would highly recommend him.

It can be difficult to find a realtor that you are confident understands your needs. Stacey proactively asked questions to gain a full understanding of our thought process and market expectations. She did a great job staging our home and keeping us informed once listed on the market. Her communication style is thorough and she responds timely. If you are looking for a realtor who will make your transaction seem easy, I’d highly recommend Stacey!!!

My husband and I recently moved to Arizona from Michigan. Stacey gave us a tour of the different communities in Phoenix and the surrounding areas, and answered all of our (many) questions. We can be picky and indecisive homebuyers, and Stacey was very patient with us while we looked at many houses. We purchased a home last month, and because of how knowledgeable Stacey is about real estate and the Phoenix area, we felt confident in our decision! We love our home and had such a great experience with both Stacey and Craig. We're so thankful to have had such a wonderful and warm welcome to Arizona! If you're looking for a real estate professional who is knowledgeable, diligent, responsive, funny, and kind - look no further.

Stacey was incredible from start to finish. We got her advice months before we listed our first home to see what improvements would give us the most "bang for our buck." That helped us focus and have a list to guide us to be ready for selling. When it came to buying, she was very responsive to help us see the properties we were interested in, and we appreciated her expert advice on the potential for each home or lack thereof. When we were in the bidding process, she navigated through the best ways to have our offer stand out. Her stellar reputation in the community was an asset when dealing with the seller's agent. We are so happy that we chose Stacey, thanks to a referral. We talk about how lucky we had such expertise and support through a challenging and stressful process. We would highly recommend Stacey to anyone looking for a realtor.

Stacey was amazing!! Her savvy, experience, and dedication helped put my daughter into her dream home. In this market that wasn’t easy, but she was there every step of the way, day and night, providing the needed support throughout. As a mother of four girls, It was readily apparent from the start Stacey possessed the caring and intuitiveness that ensured my daughter’s experience was above and beyond.

Relocating to Phoenix from Puerto Rico due to my job was already a huge leap but coming into a different culture and city which I had never visited previously brought a lot of ambiguity and anxiety. I was clueless to 1) the market 2) which area works for me and my family 3) what I was looking for a home. Stacey was a god send, its important to have chemistry with your realtor and what makes an amazing realtor is that they understand more what you want and need then you are even able to articulate. Stacey first works in getting to know you and understand you, which helps give ease and trust that she will find the best property for you. Stacey provided transparent information on the current market and what can help you get an offer accepted, she knows so much of Phoenix that she can understand which neighborhood works great for you and your family dynamics and she made sure to pick out homes that fulfilled the wish list. My process for purchasing a home with the bank was a whirlwind but Stacey & her husband Craig were with me thru all of it, supporting and ensuring that we got to closing day.

My wife Karen and myself worked with Stacey this past summer in completing a successful closing of our winter home with one of her listings in the Chandler area. From the start to the closing Stacey was consistently their for us. She answered or obtained the answers to our questions. Stacey assisted in recommendations for our inspector, and contractors for completing items needing attention prior to and after closing. She was differently a big help and supporter. Stacey has the qualities that make her an extremely successful and effective agent. I can't say enough about her professionalism and knowledge within the business. As a commercial broker in another state, I deal with many agents and it is refreshing when I find an agent that possesses professionalism such as Stacey's.

We were from out of state in search of new existing housing in the Phoenix area.
Craig and Stacey were experts and provided areas of interest for our housing search. Provided a great web interface to use for house hunting and supplied us with the right house for our budget and space requirements.
Highly recommend them to all. They have many resources to help with inspection, finance and more.

I can highly recommend Stacey of NextHome. She did a wonderful job of walking us through the entire process - from the beginning of our search online all the way to close. (She has even been responsive to a few questions we’ve had after the sale!). She was flexible with different forms of communication (Face Time, phone, text, and in person). This was very important since we were coming from out of state. She had to be our eyes and ears when we couldn’t be there and she quickly tuned in to exactly what wanted. We are happy with our our purchase and will definitely look to Stacey if we want to sell or purchase again.

Craig and Stacey were just awesome. All of their suggestions helped us make an effective sale and more importantly, they were our agent as an agent is expected to be...looking out for the client's best interest, not just looking for a quick sale. Huge difference vs some other agents. They made the process as easy as possible considering levels of complexity rise when dealing with higher end homes.
Can't say enough good things about Craig and Stacey and I highly recommend them to anyone selling a home.

Craig and Stacy did a great job with sale of our house - from cradle to grave - they helped get the house ready, staged, photographed for marketing, set up a safe house visitation plan and then quickly we received an offer. Followed through the entire offer and escrow process and ensured nothing derailed or slowed down the inspection and close out process. I give them my highest possible recommendation, they will do everything necessary to sell your house at a fair and reasonable price -which creates win:win for all parties

Craig was the listing agent for the home I purchased. I did not have a buying agent by choice because this adds another level of agency that was not needed. I knew what I was looking for in a home and at what location. Craig partnered with me and acted on both the Seller and Buyer's behalf. This was a very positive experience since Craig worked quickly and effectively with the Seller's. We had an agreement in a couple hours and closed within 3 weeks. He made himself available and traveled 50 miles to the home at a drop of a hat. It was a very positive experience and his communication was outstanding. I recommend using Craig as a Buying/Selling agent for any real estate purchase in the future.
