Hi, I’m Shelby 👋 

🌵 Gilbert local since 1998 

🏡 Realtor for 18+ years 

🏈 Dance team director 

🛏️ Airbnb owner 

🌎 Traveler 

I’ve watched Gilbert grow from a much quieter town into the place I’m proud to call home. I love helping people discover what makes the East Valley such a great place to live.

Around here you’ll find a little bit of real estate, a lot of Gilbert, home inspiration, local restaurants, travel, and the occasional adventure. ✈️🏡🌵

Whether you’re buying, selling, relocating, or just want to know what’s happening around town, you’re in the right place.

😉 Because Moms always know best…

I graduated from ASU with a journalism degree and a lot of question marks.

Print media was fading, online media was up and coming, I already worked in a real estate office and my mom said,
“you should get your real estate license.”

So I did.
And now I get to help people chase their dreams, work alongside family, and call some of my best friends my coworkers.

Turns out she was right (again).

🌊 Cannon Beach isn’t done yet…

A Tapestry Collection by Hilton is proposed right next to the surf lagoon in Mesa. 🌴 

What the plans filed with the City of Mesa show:
✔️ Five stories
✔️ Around 150 rooms
✔️ A signature restaurant
✔️ An outdoor pool

It’s still working through city permits and a second hotel, an Aloft by Marriott, is also planned.

I’ve lived in Gilbert since 1998 and watched this corner of the East Valley go from open desert to surf lagoon. 🏄‍♀️ 

Would you book a staycation here? Tell me below. 👇

I’ve been a Phoenix area agent for 18 years. Here are 3 things I no longer do 👇

I no longer save the hard conversations for later. The price talk is uncomfortable for ten minutes on the first call, and it saves everyone holding costs and days on market.

I no longer answer “is now a good time to buy?” with a yes or no. Markets are hyper-local and a lot of times neighborhood specific. Hire someone who knows your area and how to study your specific property’s market trends.

I no longer apologize for my commission. An agent who negotiates badly on their own behalf is showing you exactly how they negotiate. I welcome the opportunity to prove value throughout the transaction.

New here? I’m Shelby 👋 Arizona real estate advisor, dance team Director + Gilbert local since 1998.

DM me to schedule an introduction call.

Five things I love about 887 W. Calle Artistica in Green Valley, AZ 👇

Mountain views and a desert wash behind you. No backyard neighbors, plus stunning sunsets.

A quiet, tucked-away neighborhood that’s still close to all the conveniences.

A guest suite with its own entrance and ensuite bath. A true private retreat for visitors.

Versatile spaces and a den, perfect for hobbies or a home office.

An open kitchen to the backyard heated pool and spa with built-in BBQ, perfect for entertaining. 

And the air-conditioned 3-car garage is a great workshop.

Bonus: new roof, new exterior paint, and move-in ready. It sits in Green Valley Recreation (GVR), so the amenities and activities are right at your doorstep.

Offered at $629,000

Have you seen what’s planned for Power and Warner? 👀

It’s called The Ranch, and here’s what’s planned for the 311 acres:
🛍️ Two retail centers with shops and restaurants
🏡 700+ apartments
🌳 18 acres of green space and walking paths
🏗️ 3 million square feet of industrial space

If you live nearby, this will change your corner of town. If you’re thinking about moving to Gilbert, projects like this are a big part of why the East Valley keeps growing.

I had a lot of misconceptions about real estate 18 years ago. 👇

I thought the job was pretty houses.
Perfect kitchens. Happy closings...

Here's what I no longer believe as a Gilbert Realtor:

❌ Every deal is the same.
The contracts match. The transactions never do.

❌ Finding the right house is the hardest part.

Accepted offer to closing table is where deals get done.

❌ I'd learn the best neighborhoods once.

I've been in Gilbert since 1998. The Phoenix area keeps changing, and I'm still learning.

❌ I should have every answer on the spot.

Knowing exactly who to call beats guessing.

❌ Experience means no more surprises.

It means I don't panic when they show up.

Buying or selling a home in Arizona this year? Ask your agent:

✔️ What happens AFTER the offer is accepted?

✔️ What went sideways on your last deal, and how did you fix it?

The answers will tell you everything.

I'm Shelby, Gilbert local, STR Superhost and real estate advisor. 🌵

This backyard has a mountain view you’ll never get tired of.

Let me tell you about this one…

It is a former model home, the one builders used to sell the community and lifestyle.

And the lifestyle comes with it! 

New roof. New exterior paint. A private courtyard entrance with a separate guest suite. 

Inside: granite counters, glass-front cabinets, upgraded appliances, a beautiful 3-car garage with AC. 

Need extra space? There’s a den with double doors, tucked away. 

Hosting family this winter? You have the private guest suite. Separate entrance. Ensuite bath. Your guests have their own space and you’ll have yours.

Now step outside.

Heated pool. Spa. Built-in BBQ. Zero neighbors behind you. Just desert and mountains.

Even the garage is finished out, workshop-ready, air conditioned, EV charging, built-in cabinets.

All of it inside Green Valley, Arizona which is one of the top-rated 55+ communities in the Southwest, with amenities and social life built right in through Green Valley Recreation.

$629,000. Move-in ready. Waiting on you.

Comment “Green Valley” and I’ll send you the full details.

This is the kind of Mesa listing that makes you double-check the list price…

🏡 Because somehow this home has all the space you need without ever leaving home. Including beautiful, brand new upgrades without the price tag. 

Pocket doors open straight out to a covered patio, turf, a built-in gas BBQ, and extended pavers. Patio weather, handled. 

And yes, it’s still close to freeway access and Mesa Gateway Airport.

💰 Offered at: $730,000

🛏️ 6 bedrooms
🛁 4.5 bathrooms
📐 3,133 sq ft
🌳 Private backyard with turf, BBQ & extended pavers
✨ Favorite feature: The chef’s kitchen that flows right into the great room
📍 Neighborhood perk: Newer Toll Brothers community (built 2025) with room to grow

18 years in Gilbert taught me things no course ever could. 🏡

I know which places look good on social media vs. which ones people actually love going to.

I know the pocket neighborhoods buyers drive past without a second look and exactly why the people inside them never want to leave.

I've watched this market shift for almost two decades, so I'm not guessing what your home is worth. I've lived the comps.

I know what builders are really offering right now (not just what's on the flyer), which upgrades hold their value vs. just offer deals online.

I've got a referral list full of people I actually trust because we all grew up and started our businesses.

Local knowledge isn't a nice-to-have. It's how you make a confident decision instead of a hopeful one. 

Making a move in Phoenix and want someone who knows the lifestyle, not just the listings? DM me "GILBERT" and let's talk. 📲
