Douglas Trudeau, MBA, Assoc. Broker Selling Tucson Real Estate

About Us:

I retired from public safety service in 2000. Knowing I had to compete with younger adults fresh from college with their Bachelor's Degree , I decided to go a step further and get my Master's Degree in Business through the University of Phoenix with an emphasis on marketing.

Now I am in a better career where I market myself, as well as clients homes. I market myself to home buyers and sellers. I market client's homes to buyers looking for the right home. What I learned in graduate school has given me an edge that I can best describe as exceptional service. Hence my personal statement, "I'll exceed your expectations, while you enjoy the important things in life." I always tell clients exactly what I know I can deliver on my worse day. Then I deliver far more than my clients expect. I feel like you can never give enough.

From 1996 to 2006 I kept a commitment to my wife, mother-in-law, and father-in-law to care for him as long as it took following a severe stroke. My mother-in-law blessed us with her presence until 2003. One son is married. The other is serving our country. The only grandson from the first son is a whole new experience. Now that my wife and I are Empty Nester's, I am moving forward on a career I held in limbo to keep my commitment to my in-laws. More training, more learning, more certifications, and more to offer clients.

In 2006 I acquired my Broker's license, as planned. There is much more to come. I look at my business as Stephen Covey's sixth habit, "Sharpen the saw." I am consistently sharpening the saw to remain in the forefront and to give my clients more. I am never satisfied that what I gave yesterday is good enough for today. If you deserve exceptional, extraordinary service, you need look no further. Here I am.

For hobbies, I like to play golf whenever I can. I try to get out and practice once a week. I like to tell my partners that I pay less per ball hit than they do. That's slowly changing though. I still enjoy muscle cars and hot rods. Someday I'll get back to work on that 63′ Nova sitting under the cover next to the house. Our youngest son's 67′ Chevelle sits in the garage while my vehicle sits outside. There's nothing like the Hearbeat of America under the hood. Then there comes RC helicopters. Got hooked on them a year ago. Lots of fun to fly.

I like reading books about business, successful people, and a little self-improvment. Currently I am reading Go Long by Jerry Rice. One of my favorite athletes. His work ethic and commitment is comendible. Ben Hogan had a similar work ethic to commit to excellence. I like reading about these type of people and relate what they have learned to what I offer.

Areas of Expertise

Residential properties in the Metro Tucson Area

• Tucson, Oro Valley, Marana, Vail, Sahuarita, Green Valley

My understanding of the Tucson Metro Area market gives buyers and sellers an advantage. Staying in tune with new developments, changes in the market, where homes are selling, and where they are not, all benefit my clients whether buying or selling. Rather than reading the newspaper with my morning coffee, I am reading the latest up to the minute news about real estate and the housingmarket.

I bring to the table a commitment to excellence. I firmly believe in offering what I can give on my worse day, then delivering so much more. I like the philosphy of Napolen Hill, "Don't ask for a raise if you are doing only what is expected of you." To me a raise a referral. I like referrals, so I always do more than what is expected.

I look out for my client's best interest and what will benefit them most. I want my clients to be my Ambassadors. I want them to feel proud that they chose me to be their Realtor. I want my clients to share me with friends & family, and to have every confidence that their friends and family will be as happy or happier than they are. My expertise is in providing unimaginable, exceptional, exemplary, superior service that far exceeds expectations.

Testimonials

I bought and sold several homes. You are by far the most positive and best Realtor we have ever met. Your service was much more than we expected. - Don and Sylvia Fischer

You weren't like other Realtors. When we didn't need much you dropped us a line once in a while. As we needed more you turned up your service to meet our needs. We have dealt with other Realtors. None of whom had the timing and commitment you have. You made home buying fun. - Ross and Elisa Hartzel

I enjoyed you so much I gave your cards out to everyone at work. I told the job far coordinator that you would be the perfect Realtor at their job fairs. - Sharon Gunes
