Kent Simpson
Kent Simpson began his real estate career in 2007 with a bang – starting off in a market facing one of the gravest downturns in history, he aggressively became involved in utilizing the power of the internet to attract buyers and market properties. Before the year was out, the Real Estate Apprentice Foundation named him “One of America’s Top 10 New Agents.” An early-adopter of social media, Simpson turned “TucsonKent” into a solid brand, becoming recognized within the industry as one of the Tucson region’s leaders in technology applications for real estate – getting featured on the front page of Inside Tucson Business for introducing GPS-based property searches for phones to the Tucson Metro.
Being involved within the industry and in the community is important – not just from a business standpoint, but to truly understand the issues and strengths that make the Tucson region special – as well as the challenges inherent to a growing city desiring to preserve its unique character.
