Kim and Ben Boldt

The Story
Like many before us, my husband and I decided we wanted to retire in Tucson. We had lived in Napa, California for twenty years and it is lovely there but it was time for a change. We found an equivalent, although very different, place for our home — in Tucson, AZ. Since we were in Napa, we searched for six months through their MLS listings on their website, emails and phone calls with Kim and Ben. When we arrived here to search in person, they were tireless in taking us out to see homes. After days of searching, they honed in on what we wanted — and Kim found the home for us. It met all our criteria and more.
The Personal
Kim and Ben are so easy to be around. They are people you would want as friends for life. They are calm, forgiving, flexible and fun. They both are knowledgeable in a number of areas, not just real estate, and they are enthusiastic about numerous hobbies in which they excel. They can make you comfortable immediately — a difficult thing to do when attempting such an important, intensely emotional task as finding your home.
The Professional
We have made quite a few purchases and sales of homes. I have never had a team as experienced, knowledgeable, honest and intelligent as these two.
We bought our home in October, 2014, in Arizona. The Arizona laws regulating real estate are stringent, complicated and many! That’s good news for the sellers and buyers but it means realtors have a large body of law to keep up with. It is really important to have realtors with years of experience. The regulations are too vast for a newly licensed realtor to have learned, let alone mastered.
And the times! This was when Ben Bernanke, previous chairman of the Federal Reserve, stated in an interview that he was unable to refinance his own home. Kim and Ben were familiar with how difficult financing a home can be in this environment and were on top of any possible complications that could occur between us and our broker.
Kim and Ben navigated us through the many necessary tasks to get to closing. As I am sure there are in many of these transactions, there were issues before closing. Kim used her problem-​solving abilities to find the best and quickest solutions to assure the right outcome for us. Kim and Ben are tireless advocates for their clients. They truly care more about their clients’ satisfaction than they care about making a sale.
If you are looking for a realtor, I don’t believe you can find better ones than Kim and Ben Boldt. They are the best!
