SUCCESS STORIES
I well recognize the vast difference between the "average" Realtor and a true professional. You, at all times, proved to be one of the very best with whom I have worked and far surpassed any expectations I had at the time we agreed to list our home with you.
My husband and I purchased numerous homes in the past few years, but never have we worked with a Realtor as competent, responsive, professional, caring, and humorous as Troy Goodwin.I can't imagine Troy working in any other profession, as he is a star at what he does.

Troy Goodwin made it an easy transition from Indiana to Arizona as he was available when we needed him. Troy is very knowledgeable regarding different areas/communities of Arizona. He allowed us to take the lead and he was with us every step. Working with Troy was a lot of fun! He is very personable. Without Troy, the necessary follow up and push for timely completion of items would not have been as well managed. Troy was on top of necessary requirements and we really appreciated that as we are busy with full time jobs and raising children, while trying to get everything in line for a cross-country move. Troy ensured that the necessary actions were taken to securing our dream home. I would, without hesitation, recommend Troy Goodwin. He'll take good care of you with your new home adventures.
My wife and I worked with Troy twice to help us sell the homes we had before we met. While we had good experiences with real estate agents in the past, our experience with Troy was exceptional & he is by far the best agent we have ever worked with. His experience in the industry is attested through his professionalism, knowledge, friendly demeanor and candor. He always kept us informed and updated throughout the process and we always felt like we were in good hands. While Troy always presented both the pros and cons so we could make educated decisions, he always had our best interests in mind. We could not recommend Troy enough and he will be our sole realtor for all of our real estate transactions in our future.
Troy is very knowledgeable about real estate and takes the time to understand what you are looking for. He negotiated well on my behalf and made sure that being my first home I understood where the wiggle room was. Troy made himself available whenever I needed and was always ensuring that my questions were answered. I appreciated his insight too and how I could improve the homes value after I purchased.
My husband and I lived out of state and owned a home in Tucson for 15 years that was a rental. Our intent was to retire in that home but we changed our minds. Over the years, we thought about selling and decided to find a realtor to discuss the market. Troy was recommended highly to us and we began discussions over 10 years ago. Despite market conditions and the fact that we were undecisive about selling, Troy nonetheless generously gave his time and opinion on surveying the market and answering our questions.
In 2020 my husband passed away and I was no longer willing to keep the rental. Since Troy was our 'go-to guy' with questions on real estate, I asked him to handle all the logistics and sell my house. Troy got to work, did a great job on staging, marketing, and selling. There were 3 offers on my house the day it went live for selling on the MLS. We settled on one offer which went through without any major hitches. It was the quickest, easiest and seemless transaction all handled remotely. There was never a time I needed to travel to an office to deal with these matters in person. I trusted Troy explicitly and he continued to demonstrate his trustworthiness. During the time from offer acceptance to closing, Troy keep me updated with the progress of the sale.
Troy's team was also professional, helpful and attentive. Everyone was kind, polite and patient. It was refreshing! I give my experience with Troy and his team the highest ranking of satisfaction and a strong recommendation to go with it.
We met Troy in October 2016 during an open house. We were not looking actively for a house yet but went to check that house located in a neighborhood we always loved. And it was love at first sight. We told Troy we were buying the house immediately the same day. We were first time buyers, and although we knew close to nothing about buying a house, everything went incredibly smoothly, the paperwork, the inspections etc... Troy was with us at each moment, sharing his knowledge and experience, giving us guidance and advice. The inspectors he chose were the best ones. They found important details that other did not see. Unfortunately we had to cancel because of unexpected allergic reactions to the house, probably because it was an old house and had also dogs. It was very hard for us because we loved the house and we were already very advanced in the buying transaction. Still Troy was with us all the way. He understood our predicament. Even though he did a lot of work for nothing, he did not react like a sales person losing a sale but instead reacted on a personal level and was as concerned about our health issues as if they were his own. Then we looked for another infinite number houses with Troy. It took us more than 6 months to find one and Troy not only was very patient, but knew instinctively our likes and dislikes, sharing for all these months of active research our concerns and hopes. As first time buyers we were really difficult, we wanted the best house with everything we liked in it. Finally it happened. Again Troy went through all the inspections and was even there to advice us on the mortgage process and qualification. His attention to details was extraordinary. He helped us more than any realtor would have ever done. He helped us with the complicated mortgage paperwork, he was there even when we signed the Title making sure the agent would explain each page to us before signing it, protecting us at each step. I am afraid to think what would have happened without him. We are now living in a beautiful house, thanks entirely to him. The entire process was not the nightmare everyone said it was and we have to thank Troy for that. He knows Tucson, all the neighborhoods, the market value and so much more. I always appreciated the fact that he was very attentive to respect the houses we visited, leaving them as we found them. He did not leave doors or windows or lights open like other realtors do. It would be too little to recommend him because it goes way beyond that. No matter what you are looking for, ask for Troy. He loves his job and it shows, at each step of the buying process, he is there.
TROY IS A SPECTACULAR AGENT! I sold my old house in Prescott AZ in three days with a 30-day closing deadline, and had only a few days to find a new home in the Tucson area, make any necessary repairs, schedule new utilities, and move my things (without storage) and me to Tucson. Troy basically stopped his personal life to find me a new home and help me to move into it. He located homes meeting my stated criteria and emailed me his suggested lists and advised me of the good, bad, and ugly on houses I wanted to view. When I got to Tucson for two days, he dropped everything to show me homes of my choice, provide me new choices to review, and again advised me about the homes on the new list that I wanted to view. Once I selected the home I wanted to buy, he provided me excellent negotiating advice (saving me thousands). Once the purchase contract was executed, there were few days left to close. Troy arranged for expeditious necessary inspections and paperwork. The house needed immediate and substantial repairs, many of which were required before a brief time frame closing. Troy again stopped his personal life to help me locate contractors to do repairs (all of whom were excellent) and help me arrange for utility services. Because of Troy's tireless efforts on my behalf, I found my new home, timely closed, and seamless moved my things into my home without storage - all in about 15 days and mostly from 200 miles away. THANK YOU TROY!
Troy Goodwin steered us through the purchase of a home that was complicated by a foreclosure and bankruptcy of company selling the home. Troy was an ultimate professional, always working in the best interests of the buyer and dealt with situations with a difficult seller with humor and honest direct discussion when needed. His attention to detail is extraordinary. When he needed more information, he used the resources of the Long Realty Company and his long-time connections with the community. During a trying purchase process, Troy and associate broker Marc Minkin, kept their senses of humor and did an exceptional job. He has been a terrific realtor for first time home buyers (our son and his family as well as two of their friends) and retirees like us.
