My husband and I began working with Colleen last year when we needed some assistance with my mother’s home and we were so impressed with her forthrightness and suggestions that we returned to her when it was time to buy our first home.
Colleen was endlessly patient and so very knowledgeable as she guided us through the rigors of home buying that we didn’t even realize how arduous the process can be until we compared stories with our friends.
But, more than all that, Colleen remained actively involved even after we purchased our home to help ease us into home ownership. She helped us prioritize updates and improvements to our new property. She’s checked on us in a way that goes beyond mere professional responsibility to demonstrate how much she really cares about making sure her clients are happy.
I can’t recommend Colleen Malley Schwartz enough. I would never brave the waters of home buying again without her.

My wife and I began working with Colleen in early 2017 as we made the decision to downsize and move into the city to be closer to the cultural events and restaurants that we frequently visit. The desire to cut back on our driving was a prime factor as well. Our health insurance agent referred us to Colleen and an excellent referral it was. We met with Colleen and provided her with the parameters that we were looking for both in size and price range. Over the next 2 years we looked at and ruled out countless properties. In 2019 we finally decided on a condominium in the Biltmore area of Phoenix that was completely outside the original parameters we had provided Colleen. During this period of time I know that we didn’t make things easy for her but she was persistent in finding the right property for us.
Colleen is extremely professional and knowledgable about real estate in all geographic areas of the very large metropolitan Phoenix area. She was timely for all of our appointments. She is extremely well organized and detail oriented and a true advocate for her clients. Clients First is not just a tag line used for marketing but in fact defines the professional manner in which Colleen performed during our property search. We could not have been happier with the Colleen and will not hesitate to recommend her to people looking to purchase a new home.

Colleen did an amazing job selling my house. It sold in 5 days. She was very knowledgeable and got the job done. Whenever I had a question or concern she got back to me ASAP. She was such a pleasure to work with. Definitely recommend using her.

Colleen helped us with selling our home. She was very responsive with any questions we had though phone/text or email. Working with her was such a pleasure. We took her advice and did some minor upgrades to the home before listing it. It went live and we waited till the Monday after an open House she hosted to start accepting offers. It was under contract that Monday, 5 days after listing it! All this while we were out of town! She is amazing and if anyone is looking to purchase or sell a home, look no further. Colleen is the BEST!

Amazing realtor!!! She met our needs in every way! We moved here last year in the fall when times were hot to buy a house. We were short on time taking a only a few days off from life in San Diego to come here and see potential houses. She was able to create a list of houses for us to see and we found the house of our dreams on the first day! Call it luck but that’s what I call an amazing Realtor who really cares and listen to what her clients want. Colleen was by our side through the whole process and really shined as a person. I highly highly recommend her to anyone that Is considering buying or selling homes/properties. BEST REALTOR IN ARIZONA!!

I moved to AZ from San Diego and needed to buy a house without knowing much about Phoenix. Contacted Colleen and shared the info I knew (how big I want the house, zip code, school). Colleen narrowed down a list of 10 houses that I would like and when I came to visit from CA to buy the house she organized the list for one day. I found myself buying a house in one day of looking. That’s what happened when you have someone that care about her job and not only about the sell sell sell.
She also only took %5 and not %6 like all others. If you are looking for someone that will help you and work to make you happy Colleen is the right person

Colleen has a strong knowledge of the marketplace, neighborhoods and attention to detail that led to me find the most amazing house I could ever have imagined. From the very beginning, she asked me to provide her a list of all the essentials I wanted to have in my new house, and her recommendations of listings which we later went to see clearly demonstrated that she took her time in reviewing them before sending them to me.
During our times when we went to look at homes, it was clear that she had completed additional research on the properties. She had printed a copy of the listings for me with notes on specific items for each individual property we were going to see. In addition, she made sure to communicate quickly to the listing agent with any questions I may have had and then shared those answers with me promptly. Colleen is a knowledgeable and experienced real estate agent that truly knows the market, takes the time to truly understand what you want and then makes it happen. Its refreshing to work with a professional that asks the right questions, truly cares and consistently follows through. Thank you Colleen for the best of experiences, and you better believe I’ll be using you for all of my future real estate needs.

On September 2015, Collen Malley helped my wife and I, a dream house in Scottsdale. Collen worked for over a year to help us find just a right house for us. She is a perfect real estate person to represent you first and last. Experience was second to none. The very best real estate transaction I have ever experienced. Looking forward to working with her on my next project.

My wife and I began working with Colleen this last June, we had a lot of needs in what we were looking for when it came to our first home purchase and had no clue where to start. I was referred to Colleen by one of her previous clients and I am thrilled with how knowledgeable, kind and helpful she was through the whole process! She went above and beyond to help us find the perfect home for our family, help answer any questions and get us the knowledge and information we needed. I would definitely recommend anyone looking for a realtor to contact her immediately!

I am so happy we chose Colleen as our real estate agent. She responded to our every text, email, and phone call within minutes, always making us feel like we were important and keeping us informed of the process. I felt totally comfortable relying on her expert and timely advice. She is a true professional and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her as a realtor. Truly the best real estate experience I’ve ever had. Thanks Colleen!!!

Colleen did an amazing job helping us with our recent home purchase. She was on top of everything including making sure that we were able to see the properties we wanted to see. She was extremely professional during the whole process and kept us updated with all the developments along the way. Colleen’s reduced commission was extremely helpful to get the deal done and at closing. I highly recommend Colleen for any residential realtor services.

Colleen Malley exemplifies professionalism and courtesy. She did a great job guiding us through the process of selling our home and made it easy for us through her hard work, knowledge and high level of communication. I highly recommend Colleen to anyone in need of a good realtor.
-Justin B.
What a great experience we had selling our home. Colleen is professional and knowledgeable. I highly recommend her for your real estate needs.
-Renee J.
Colleen recently helped my husband and I find and purchase a beautiful home that our entire family has been enjoying over the Holidays and the New Year. The title of Realtor seems inadequate to describe the depth and breadth of everything she did to help us during our more than year-long search, and again, during the lengthy negotiation process. Colleen’s fearlessness, expertise, and determination in addition to her calm professionalism was a huge asset as we searched, changed our minds, and searched again and again. My husband and I both know that we never would have found a home that suited both of our needs, especially those of beauty and of value, without Colleen’s hard work and dedication. As experienced property buyers we have worked with many realtors and know that situations and pressures can sometimes lead to less than desirable outcomes. For future real estate needs we will always turn to Colleen Malley-Schwartz and highly recommend her to others.
-Suzanne C.
This was my first time buying a home and I couldn’t have done it without Colleen! She listened to what I was looking for and was my advocate throughout the entire process. Colleen gives part of her commission back to 1st time home buyers so I actually received money back at closing! I cannot say enough good things about Colleen and her experience/knowledge as a realtor.
–Abigail Whitaker
Colleen is such an asset!! I was beyond lucky to have a friend recommend her. I am a first time home buyer with 10 million questions and she has been patient through the whole process in finding what i wanted. I know she will do the same for you!!!
-Angie L.
Colleen treated every step of my home purchase with urgency and excellent communication along the way. She is very competent and meticulous with details. Excellent experience!
-Steven Enriquez
She helped me and my wife and 3 kids find a great home in the area we needed to be. Being a solar developer I work with a lot of real estate agents and what I think stood out for me with Colleen is she was prepared before we went to the property and she had things dialed in each step of the way. Great job and I would use you again and am very comfortable refer you.

Colleen was a pleasure to work with. She truly had my best interest in mind and was extremely resourceful when it came to the buying process. Her level of customer service is unmatched. I felt listened to and cared for every step of the way while I purchased my first home. She got us a great deal on the home, thanks to her savvy negotiations. I would (and have) recommend her to any potential home buyer.
