Stefano Pecci has been making waves in the real estate world since 2021. His journey began much earlier, inspired by his mother, a successful loan originator. Growing up, Stefano loved listening to her sales calls and meeting top brokers in California, which ignited his passion for real estate, architecture and design. Specializing in residential real estate across Scottsdale, Arcadia, Paradise Valley, and the Phoenix Metro Area, Stefano holds several professional certifications, including being a licensed Real Estate agent in Arizona, an active REALTOR®, an Accredited Buyer Representative, a Relocation Expert, and a Certified Real Estate Negotiator.
Stefano’s career kicked off at the Ritz-Carlton, where he learned the ins and outs of hospitality, service, and sales. He then spent time in various steakhouses and bars, honing his skills in service and communication. A chance encounter landed him at Audi North Scottsdale which led to a five-year stint in luxury automotive sales, where he mastered negotiation and top-tier service. Real estate was always his dream, and he made the switch after being a nationally ranked top producer for Audi and Penske Automotive.
Stefano graduated from Mater Dei High School with honors, a top nationally ranked private Catholic High School in Orange County, California. He was a standout athlete on the football team and ran track. His experience as an athlete taught him the value of teamwork, the importance of a strong work ethic, strategic thinking, and pushing himself to his limits. These skills have translated seamlessly into his real estate career, where working in a team setting and striving for excellence are paramount.
Stefano excels at negotiating the best deals, providing exceptional customer care, and paying attention to the smallest details. He takes an advisor/consultant approach with his clients, ensuring they get the best possible experience.
Leveraging the strong Sotheby's brand and marketing team, Stefano uses FollowUpBoss to stay organized, Cromford Report for market data, Activepipe for client emails, RPR and CollateralAnalytics for market value research, and even ChatGPT for extra support. Staying updated on market trends is crucial.
Stefano has twice been recognized as one of the top 40 Under 40 REALTORS®, is the Chair of the Young Professional's Network with the Scottsdale Area Association of Realtors, and also offers investment consultation and rental marketing services. Building and maintaining relationships with clients is key for Stefano, so he checks in regularly through phone calls, handwritten cards, and client socials. In tough situations, Stefano slows things down, asks questions, and focuses on his clients’ needs.
Stefano's long-term goals are to become a broker and own income-producing properties. Balancing work and life is important to him, so he schedules his day with a planner, works out in the mornings, handles business tasks from nine to noon, and spends afternoons with clients.
Clients have praised Stefano’s ability to negotiate, his friendliness, helpfulness, work ethic, client care, and dedication. They love that he stays in touch even after the sale and value his genuine interest in their needs. Outside of real estate, Stefano enjoys spending time with his family, coaching his son's sports teams, working out, staying active, living a healthy lifestyle, walking his dog, hiking, and camping.
