Highest praise for Greg and his team! We were looking for a home in Phoenix, while living in Los Angeles and we were not very familiar with the city. And, we had very particular search criteria that were not easily translated into real estate websites (good bones, mature trees, etc.). Greg helped us get oriented in the city and offered great information as we looked at houses (evidence of termites, proximities, distances, and insight into issues to be more/less worried about). He knows the city and the context very well. Greg is also incredibly responsive. We found a house that we thought had great potential, but also knew that it was going to go quickly. Greg went to the property, facetimed with us as he walked through the house. Because of this quick response, we were able to put in a bid in a timely way and ended up getting the house. He also has a great network of consultants (inspectors, pool people, engineers, etc.) and has a stellar reputation in real estate and architecture circles. His team helped us through the process, keeping us informed and giving a heads up to avoid any issues before they became problems.

Greg is a truly phenomenal real estate agent who goes above and beyond compared to his peers. We needed to buy a property while living out of state, and with zero knowledge of the Phoenix area. Greg did a stellar job at apprising us of different neighborhoods and opportunities, of helping us find properties that would be a good fit for our wants and needs, and of serving as our eyes and ears when we could not be present in person. He was never less than a consummate advocate for, and protector of, our interests. The support provided by the rest of his team was also outstanding and helped ensure a smooth search and closing process.

Ellen is a delight to work with she really knows the Arizona area and market are transaction went smoothly from start to finish. Ellen understood exactly what I was looking for and was able to pinpoint my style as well, she found me the perfect place in my desired location, when it came to negotiate the purchase price on our new home Ellen exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend working with her and if I decide to buy another property or sell down the road, I will definitely use Ellen again!

I've worked with a number of real estate agents over the years, and my experience with Greg and his team was one of the best. Greg not only helped to perfectly price my rental property, he provided expert negotiation skills and also played the role of PM with local vendors as I live out of state. His team deserves high praise as well, they are both proactive and professional. I would highly recommend Greg and his team to anyone in need of assistance with buying or selling a property.

Many years ago, our Colorado realtor recommended Greg Kilroy as a contact for help in the purchase of a rental for our daughter, while she attended ASU. It was such a pleasant experience, that when it was time to sell, we did not hesitate to call Greg and his team for their assistance again; they have been professional, personal and could not have been more helpful in the sale of our rental condo in Tempe. We live out of state, and therefore, only spoke with Greg, Ellen and Brittny on the phone or in emails, yet we felt like they were accessible and responsive at all times. Our renters had less than a month left on the lease when we listed and Greg and his team took great care to make sure they were not inconvenienced and felt comfortable, while still taking advantage of the good showing/selling window around graduation. We received weekly updates on the selling process and as a bonus, Greg works with a great independent contractor who was able to take care of quick repairs within a day. Our rental was furnished and The Velocity Group, took care of contacting a donation truck to come and take advantage of the sale, which prevented us from needing to buy airline tickets to come and facilitate the emptying of the condo. This is only just one of the details that gives testimony to the fact that this team not only works in your favor, but partners for the success of their clients while going above and beyond. We would highly recommend Greg Kilroy and his team for any and all transactions. It is sure to be a win/win for everyone.

This is Ellen in a nutshell: Honest, attentive, professional and top notch in looking out for our interests. Ellen has been our realtor for multiple transactions over the past six years for good reason. We HIGHLY recommend her to anyone who is looking for a superior realtor.

As a first-time home buyer, represented by The Velocity Group’s Greg Kilroy as my agent, it is my opinion he stands out as a consummate professional among real estate agents and brokers alike. He integrates a unique blend of experience, negotiating prowess, technical knowledge, and clear communication, creating a very positive client experience. In addition to Greg, each client receives support from several Velocity Group professionals throughout their transaction. This team effort ensures time-sensitive tasks are successfully completed, even in Greg’s absence. Finally, Greg’s focus is facilitating the right deal for each client, not simply closing a deal. These characteristics and the strong team support make it quite easy to recommend Greg Kilroy and the Velocity Group to anyone.

Ellen was a delightful person to work with. She is extremely professional, helpful and knowledgeable. Ellen was able to help us purchase a lot to build a home. Even though we were just purchasing land from Ellen, she made us feel like her most important clients. She treated us like a multimillion dollar home. Ellen’s communication skills are excellent. She would do her research on MLS, suggest land or homes for us and have great marketing information on the homes when we were out viewing properties. Ellen was very knowledgeable of the law for our contract. She made sure she pointed out specific details that may or may not benefit us. She always had our backs and played devil’s advocate as a business person would do. Ellen wasn't afraid to go into areas she does not typically work. We did not know where we wanted to buy, she was very instrumental in guiding us to the area that would best suit us professionally and personally. She explored other areas of town with me to satisfy my curiosity and she did this all with her beautiful smile and self. I would highly recommend Ellen as anyone's realtor. Whether you are listing your home, purchasing a home/or lot or both! She will be honest with you, respectful of your needs and budget and guide you with her experience and knowledge!

Greg Kilroy did an excellent job of listing and selling our home. He was very knowledgeable and, unlike other agents we interviewed, everything he said and did was backed up by facts. He did a complete analysis of the market, the neighborhood, etc. and also took into consideration our particular circumstances. The price point he set was perfect. We had multiple, solid offers within the first 7 days and sold the home for above asking. Greg did an excellent job of communicating with us and was always respectful, prompt, and patient. He and his team are highly organized and paid attention to details. Note: This review was solicited; however, I was not coached, and I did not receive any compensation for my honest account of my experience.

Ellen is really good. She is responsive, creative, extremely hard-working, and a pleasure to work with. She went above and beyond, including attending showings to be sure our dog was comfortable with new people in the house, having several open houses, and providing input on staging and good referrals of contractors for repairs/improvements.

Greg supported us every step of the way. He kept in touch with us to give us updates. All the things we did not understand about selling a home in Tempe, AZ were made clear. He answered our questions immediately and reassured us if we had any doubts about how things were going. He hung in with us and offered expert advice on how we should proceed. We were never disappointed. We always felt that we were in good hands. He knows the real estate business. We can't say enough good things about his work ethic and knowledge. Thank you, Greg.

We highly recommend Greg and Ellen at Velocity Group for all of your real-estate needs. They sold our modern home with the level of attention and responsiveness that would suggest we were their number one priority. They gave us expert advice and represented us with our best interest in mind. We also worked with them to find a unique contemporary home that exceeded our needs and desires. I am a very particular and discerning client and they used my input and worked hard to find us great options, many of them before they hit the market. They negotiated our purchase to get us the home we wanted, even with other offers on the property, at a fair price. We are very happy with our experience both selling and buying a home with Greg and Ellen at The Velocity Group.

Greg recently assisted me in selling my house and I truly can’t say enough positive things about him. He is extremely professional and knowledgeable of the entire process. He takes the time to understand his clients and their ultimate goal. Greg is very hands on and took care of everything, from the beginning in correctly pricing the home, to obtaining estimates for repairs, working with the other realtor, reviewing every single detail prior to closing, and making sure he was available to assist both parties at any time and insisted on being present at closing when I signed the papers to ensure that everything went smoothly and there were no questions. Any questions I did have, he knew the answer immediately and addressed it. Greg has integrity and strives to do the right thing for the seller as well as the buyer and keeps his clients best interest and goals at the forefront of all discussions/negotiations. I highly recommend Greg and look forward to using him in the future.
