Jim Bruske has helped me sell a house in Arcadia, buy a Waterfront condo, and sell a house in Prescott.

In every situation, realtors on both sides of the deal have told me how wise I was to have him represent me. They have marveled at his high level of commitment and communication, and his knowledge of how to make even extremely complex deals come together.
