About John Harding, Your AZ Realtor

I’m an Arizona native, and I grew up the youngest of 11 kids on a flood-irrigated property in North Central Phoenix. Most of my family still lives within 5 miles of where I grew up. Today I own flood-irrigated land of my own in Camp Verde, so I know this state from the city grid to the red rocks, both as a Realtor and as someone who calls it home.

Before I started selling homes, I was in the non-profit legal sector for eight years and then became the director of operations at a residential real estate brokerage. I managed dozens of agents and oversaw hundreds of transactions, so I’ve seen almost every way a deal can go sideways and learned how to protect my clients in all kinds of situations. Since selling full time, I’ve received the HomeSmart Diamond Award every year.

My clients count on me for a few things in particular:

• Negotiation. I’m trained in the tactical-empathy approach from Chris Voss’s Never Split the Difference. This had made the difference in getting hard deals done. 
• Contracts, contingencies, and seller disclosures. With my non-profit law firm experience, I care about the details because they matter to you. 
• VA and FHA loan assumptions. I'm a certified loan assumption specialist. These opportunities can help you lock in a lower rate when you are looking to move up. This makes a big difference when interest rates are hurting your buying power. 

I often help retirees settling into the Prescott area, families moving up in the Valley, first-time buyers, and people relocating from out of state. I work across Prescott, Prescott Valley, Phoenix Cottonwood, Camp Verde, and Sedona.

My approach is simple: no pressure, straight answers, and you set the pace. I’ll keep things fun, but when it counts, I’m all business, and your interests always come first.
