We really appreciated Stacey's help and experience in this daunting process.

She helped us find the perfect home, with lot's of patience and a very personal touch.

Goetz N. (Buyer)

My wife Karen and myself worked with Stacey this past summer in completing a successful closing of our winter home with one of her listings in the Chandler area.

From the start to the closing Stacey was consistently their for us. She answered or obtained the answers to our questions. Stacey assisted in recommendations for our inspector, and contractors for completing items needing attention prior to and after closing. She was differently a big help and supporter. Stacey has the qualities that make her an extremely successful and effective agent. I can't say enough about her professionalism and knowledge within the business. As a commercial broker in another state, I deal with many agents and it is refreshing when I find an agent that possesses professionalism such as Stacey's.

Leslie (Lee) Racine (Director of Commercial Brokerage KW Commercial Midwest)

Stacey and Craig were excellent.

They had great knowledge of the Phoenix area and helped us negotiate a great deal on our home. We would use them again.

Ed R. (Buyer)

We are so happy to have had the opportunity to work with Stacey.

She was so knowledgeable, warm, and patient with us, and made the process of finding our home very easy!

Molly Radigan

Stacey was very helpful in looking for an investment property.

She showed me all the listings that fit the budget, ROI, proximity that I was looking for. The full process was awesome and I felt very comfortable. Definitely recommend them to others.

Dan M. (Investor)

Stacey was very helpful with our relocation.

She made it possible to go on a three day house hunt and accommodate my narrow time window. We found the perfect house on the third day and Stacey worked til late that night to get the offer in. She's highly professional and still fun to be around (after all you wind up spending hours with your realtor). I highly respect her sense of fairness and responsibility and will recommend her cordially.

Paolo S. (Buyer)

Stacey is a great agent.

She helped us a lot not just for house hunting but also anything she knows about the neighborhood. She is patient, kindhearted, professional with the knowledge of real estate and works fast and efficiently. I was really moved when she spent hours to show us around all the facilities, resources and funs in the whole Chandler area. She is now our good friend, and we would ask her for any information about the community. We highly recommend her as your agent!

Junjun Xin (Electrical Engineer)

Stacey was very helpful in the buying process for my new home in Phoenix.

She was very patient and offered helpful insights about the market, neighborhood and even connected us with a great contractor for some remodeling.

Ryan Anderson (Customer)

Stacey was incredible from start to finish.

We got her advice months before we listed our first home to see what improvements would give us the most "bang for our buck." That helped us focus and have a list to guide us to be ready for selling. When it came to buying, she was very responsive to help us see the properties we were interested in, and we appreciated her expert advice on the potential for each home or lack thereof. When we were in the bidding process, she navigated through the best ways to have our offer stand out. Her stellar reputation in the community was an asset when dealing with the seller's agent. We are so happy that we chose Stacey, thanks to a referral. We talk about how lucky we had such expertise and support through a challenging and stressful process. We would highly recommend Stacey to anyone looking for a realtor.

Kelsey & Billy Donnay

It can be difficult to find a realtor that you are confident understands your needs.

Stacey proactively asked questions to gain a full understanding of our thought process and market expectations. She did a great job staging our home and keeping us informed once listed on the market. Her communication style is thorough and she responds timely. If you are looking for a realtor who will make your transaction seem easy, I’d highly recommend Stacey!!!

I felt I could trust her from the start of the home buying process and that she had my best interest in mind. I would definitely recommend Stacey to my family and friends.

Emily Mills

We worked with Stacey for over 2 years looking for a home with specific features.

She had lots of ideas and suggestions and was willing to run around with us many many times until we finally found the right home for us. She's very professional, but also a lot of fun. Stacey also helped my older parents buy a home and handled the long distance closing very smoothly. They were delighted with her. Craig sold our old home for us. He was very knowledgeable and we got it done quickly. I would highly recommend them.

Jessica B

Stacey Akers is an excellent realtor.

She truly cares about putting you into the home that will fit your family. There were several times where she could have suggested a home for our family that would be a quick sell for her. Instead, she only directed us to homes that were a true fit in spite of the fact it might take longer for her to make a sale. If you want a realtor that truly cares, contact Stacey.

Sharon K. (Buyer)

We found Stacey about three years ago when looking for a second home in the Phoenix area.

Stacey started sending us the listings while we were living in Michigan and spent many hours on the phone and on-line with us over a period of time. When I came to Phoenix, she spent two full days with us touring homes. She quickly picked up on exactly what I wanted, and we ended up purchasing a home off of one of her recommendations, rather than what I had found myself. After we moved permanently to Phoenix, we decided we wanted a bigger home closer in to the city and once again, Stacey helped us find just the perfect home. She was completely awesome - my very first Phoenix friend. With her help, we not only found a beautiful forever home, but I found a job and a total feeling of belonging here. I can't say enough good things about her. Her husband Craig helped us sell our first Phoenix home very quickly in a slow market and area, and together, they make the best team of realtors I have ever known. They work so hard to make your transition into a new area the best it could possibly be and go above and beyond with everything. I will always recommend Stacey and Craig to anyone who needs a realtor - they are THE BEST!

Barb Ruis (N/A)

Stacey is very professional, efficient and responsible.

She is extremely helpful for my new home hunting and my settlement in this new place. She is always avalible for any of my needs. She is very familiar with this area and always gives good suggestions and recommendations. I feel very lucky to find her otherwise I won't make such a great choice of the house. She also provides lots of good contacts and information to help me find the right stuff and right person. She drove me around the area and introduced to me, and also helped me to find my baby's day care. She exactly understand the customer's needs and has been very patient. I highly recommend her as your next House purchasing agent!

Qin Lei (Assistant Professor)

Stacey was so amazing in helping us find a new home in a new state.

Darren B. (Buyer)

I was with great pleasure to work with Stacy.

Her endless commitment to guide us to find our home was outstanding. We were looking for something not common and she was dedicated to locate it. If you a lookimg for someone with great knowledge, skills and dedication; look no further and contact her today!

Mia Chorney

Stacey has good knowledge of the Phoenix and chandler area and had good suggestions to help steer us to the right property.

Being from out of state introducing us to docusign helped with the paper process. Stacey was kind, responsive and very accommodation on our needs

Marcus G. (Out of State Buyer)

Stacey was great and would recommend her to anyone!

We purchased a house and a few months later purchased a lot. Everything went well. She made sure all questions were answered and all paper work in order and that made things very helpful.

Al S. (Buyer)

Stacey was dedicated from Day 1 and actually negotiated a price that both the seller and my husband and I could live with.

She met whenever we asked her to and was very knowledgeable about the area and the market. Her husband Craig and her are the dynamic duo in my book. If you are wanting to purchase a home, there is no better group to work with. I will refer Stacey to everyone I know!

Tina B.

Stacey was a pleasure to work with.

She took the time to understand our needs and wants and then showed us the right listings. She was a great help in making an offer the seller would accept and helped arrange and negotiate a lot of the details. In addition, she helped us locate a temporary rental while we were looking for a home and had numerous professional people available to assist as needed. Highly recommend Stacey for your real estate needs

Dave K. (Buyer)

Relocating to Phoenix from Puerto Rico due to my job was already a huge leap but coming into a different culture and city which I had never visited previously brought a lot of ambiguity and anxiety.

I was clueless to 1) the market 2) which area works for me and my family 3) what I was looking for a home. Stacey was a god send, its important to have chemistry with your realtor and what makes an amazing realtor is that they understand more what you want and need then you are even able to articulate. Stacey first works in getting to know you and understand you, which helps give ease and trust that she will find the best property for you. Stacey provided transparent information on the current market and what can help you get an offer accepted, she knows so much of Phoenix that she can understand which neighborhood works great for you and your family dynamics and she made sure to pick out homes that fulfilled the wish list. My process for purchasing a home with the bank was a whirlwind but Stacey & her husband Craig were with me thru all of it, supporting and ensuring that we got to closing day.

Hiriana Arroyo

Stacy was our realtor for a recent Investment Property we purchased in Old Town Scottsdale.

She was very professional, timely, and knowledgeable. She helped us obtain a great price, and kept the project moving forward. Thank You for helping us with our new project!!!!

Mark Johnson (Home Owner)

Stacey is very professional and anticipates our requirements after meeting us a short time.

I would recommend her for anyone looking for a home in the southern Phoenix area.

Bob B. (Buyer)

We honestly do not know what we would have done without Stacey’s guidance, experience and support during the process of buying our home.

We were from out of state and had a limited opportunity to find and make an offer on a home. We truly felt like she was watching out for us the entire time. She knows the area so well and she knew what areas provided the amenities we were looking for in a second home. I work as a Realtor in another state so I sat the bar really high and Stacey surpassed all of my expectations. We fell in love with our condo (and the entire community). That’s when we saw Stacey’s expertise shine through. She fought for us the entire time. We purchased a property that was in the frame stage of construction and she literally carried us through the design center (I'm pretty sure we would still be there trying to pick out finishes if she hadn't been there to help us out). She made sure she was there to represent us during the inspection process since we were out of state. I don’t know what we would have done without her. She kept in constant contact with us the entire time, even though we were in a different state. She took care of us through any issues that came up during the purchase, protected us the entire time, and she dealt with issues so we didn’t have to. She handled everything and it reduced the stress that we were under. But the service did not end with the closing of our home. She made sure to check on our house as we were out of state. Once we closed, she provided us with a list of resources in our area that were businesses we could rely on. We have used more than one service she recommended and we have not been disappointed. Stacey is well known in the area and has a fantastic reputation. Stacey still checks on us. It is rare to find a service level like what we were shown. I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the area. The bar is instantly raised when you work with Stacey. She works tirelessly to ensure that your goal to buy or sell a home is as smooth a process as possible. If we ever sell this house or need to purchase another one, we would definitely utilize Stacey again. We have such gratitude for her helping us to realize our dream of owning a second home in Arizona and we fully realize what a major role she had in making our dream a reality.

Tina Vorbeck

Stacey is very knowledgeable about the market and was always in touch with us along the process.

She was always available to talk on the phone or meet to discuss aspects if the purchase or sale of our properties. Their office is in a good location and is easy to drive to.

Ole S. (Buyer)

Stacey’s been great to work with.

She has our best interest at heart and we would use her again in the future.

Teresa Snyder (Home Buyer/seller)

My husband and I had never been through the home buying process.

Stacey was very informative and helpful. She helped guide us every step of the way and made the entire process easier. I highly recommend her.

Vicki Broeder (Caregiver)

Stacey did such a great job for us !

She has a great attention to detail, always stayed on top of things and really knows what she’s doing! I would definitely recommend her to anyone I know !!

Casey Shaw (Business owner )

Stacey was great, always on top of the situation, always willing to help.

She helped to provide a smooth transition into our "Next Home".

William Jett

Stacey was a great help in assisting me in the location of my new home.

She quickly ascertained what it was that I was looking for and led me right to the home that was perfect for me. She helped me negotiate and navigate the finer points of a very lengthy new build contract. She was quick and accurate in her responses to my questions as we proceeded through the process.

Sandy J. (Buyer)

Craig and Stacey of NextHome did a wonderful job for us when we sold our home and found a new one.

They met with us to explain the process, advised us on showing the home, and were with us every step of the way from listing to close. Our home sold in only a few days thanks to them. Stacey in particular was the Realtor we went through when we first moved to Arizona, so we have actually worked with her twice. Both times, she met us at all our appointments, went to bat for us on whatever we wanted, and put herself in our shoes. Stacey is very experienced and very good at what she does. Should we ever decide to move again, she will be the first person to know. I would highly recommend Stacey and Craig to anyone looking for a Realtor! Thanks to you both!

Alden L Weight

Stacey helped us find our first home when we moved to AZ 14 years ago, and when we were ready to move, we gave her a call.

Selling and buying simultaneously was a bit complicated, but Stacey helped us successfully navigate the process, and our move went smoothly. With selling our house, she gave good advice on what needed to be done for repairs, staging, and pricing. We got two cash offers within the first couple days on the market, and the buyer didn't request any repairs. With our new home purchase, Stacey helped us find what we were looking for in our price range and provided good guidance on how much we should offer based on the market. We ended up with a great home that we really like. Stacey genuinely cares about her clients and has a wealth of experience. She knows the Valley well! If you are looking for a home, selling a home, or doing both, give her a call.

Stephanie W

Stacey possesses the alacrity and knowledge necessary for her job, having lived here for so long.

She is a beautiful wife and mother to her three daughters, and I am sure they share her admirable traits.

Sean F Wolfort MD (Pofessor)

Stacy is an absolute professional who I highly recommend for anybody in the market to purchase/sell a home.

She took her time to truly understand our desires and needs and showed us a variety of exactly what we requested. She was extremely familiar with the area, including schools, traffic, shopping, etc. Once we narrowed our search down to a few homes, she actively engaged to negotiate a fair price and then took all necessary steps to close quickly and efficiently. We were in our new home in less than 30 days ! I cannot overstate how absolutely pleased I am with our new home and Stacy Akers efforts to make it reality.

Bruce N. (Satisfied Buyer)

We have used Stacey twice for purchasing a home.

Each time we had a wonderful experience. She was so patient with us during the ups and downs, highs and lows of homebuying. Thank you for helping us find our dream home!!

Amy Voss (Senior Business Manager)

Stacey has a gift of listening and then putting all your wants together into finding the best home.

We started out all over the place and very quickly she pulled out key information crucial to our home buying process. She is professional and made the whole process painless. I have confidently recommended her services to others and we are happier than we could have ever imagined with our new home.

Lori S. (Buyer)

I met Stacey through a referral when I was looking to sell my home in 2005.

Ten years later, and four different home transactions later, I not only consider her my realtor but she has also become a friend. Through each of these home transactions she was there every step of the way whether it was to sit through home inspections, our title signings, or to pick out our upgrades in a new home purchase. If there was ever a time she wasn't available, her husband Craig would be there. They make a great team! I also have been very happy with the mortgage lending company they work with. I strongly recommend them and have put my trust in them over the past decade for all our real estate needs.

Michelle M. (Repeat Customer)

Stacey was amazing!

! Her savvy, experience, and dedication helped put my daughter into her dream home. In this market that wasn’t easy, but she was there every step of the way, day and night, providing the needed support throughout. As a mother of four girls, It was readily apparent from the start Stacey possessed the caring and intuitiveness that ensured my daughter’s experience was above and beyond.

Kathy Mills (SVP & CFO)

I can highly recommend Stacey of NextHome.

She did a wonderful job of walking us through the entire process - from the beginning of our search online all the way to close. (She has even been responsive to a few questions we’ve had after the sale!). She was flexible with different forms of communication (Face Time, phone, text, and in person). This was very important since we were coming from out of state. She had to be our eyes and ears when we couldn’t be there and she quickly tuned in to exactly what wanted. We are happy with our our purchase and will definitely look to Stacey if we want to sell or purchase again.

Chris S.

Stacey was great to work with.

Very responsive to our needs, and a great negotiator. She let us know what to expect throughout the process, and made sure we were comfortable with every situation we faced. Strongly recommended!

Craig Z. (Buyer)

Stacey is easy to get along with, makes herself available and is great with other agents.

Her ability to get along with a selling agent and her ability to negotiate on my behalf in a timely fashion led to my being able to purchase my house. She was also able to point me in a few directions after the purchase.

do not put my name or photo online or elsewhere.

Stacey Aker is a realtor that will go above and beyond for you and your family.

She makes sure that all of your requirements are fulfilled. Stacey will update you frequently along your new home purchase and keep you informed, also give you an understanding about the tasks at hand. Not only are you gaining a marvelous realtor but a friend along the way.

Jeana Velasco-Madden (Home buyer)

Stacey and her husband Craig were a great team and got our home ready to sell quickly!

I highly recommend her as a real estate agent. We will use her services again when we move back to Arizona!

Brian Marsh

Stacey and team were awesome when we were looking for a new home.

She had great knowledge of the process, properties, and communities! Even though we were moving from out of state, they made themselves available during our transition and helped us find a property we can truly call home. We would definitely recommend Stacey or Craig for your buying or selling needs.

John D. (Buyer)

My husband and I recently moved to Arizona from Michigan.

Stacey gave us a tour of the different communities in Phoenix and the surrounding areas, and answered all of our (many) questions. We can be picky and indecisive homebuyers, and Stacey was very patient with us while we looked at many houses. We purchased a home last month, and because of how knowledgeable Stacey is about real estate and the Phoenix area, we felt confident in our decision! We love our home and had such a great experience with both Stacey and Craig. We're so thankful to have had such a wonderful and warm welcome to Arizona! If you're looking for a real estate professional who is knowledgeable, diligent, responsive, funny, and kind - look no further.

Sarah Tuffs

Stacey brought professional warmth to the entire house purchasing process!

She took the time to understand our needs in a home and patiently helped us sift through the market until we found the right one. If buying or selling a home, reach out to Stacey! You'll be in great hands.

Jena Meyerpeter

I could not be happier with my 1st time home buying experience.

From the minute I sat down with Stacey to the minute I got my keys I always felt I had the BEST person by my side. She listened to what I wanted and we found my perfect home with-in the first week of working together. She was always available to answer all my questions and is extremely knowledgeable. I got exactly what I wanted because of her and I am so very grateful!

Megan Millage (Mortuary Manager)

I was a brand new buyer and they provided me the knowledge that I needed when buying a new home.

They were amazing to work with and I would recommend them to anyone.

Joel W. (New Buyer)

Stacey did an awesome job helping us find and purchase our new home.

She is extremely knowledgeable and always responsive. As out of state buyers, we started our journey over 3 years ago. Stacey was patient and stuck with us all the way. When we finally committed to making the leap, Stacey went above and beyond to accommodate us. She spent hours on the phone with us, walking us through the buying process in Arizona, and helping us to determine a plan. She also assisted us by visiting houses and letting us view them via FaceTime before we were able to come out. When we did make a last minute trip, Stacey gave us her full attention and took us to visit a multitude of properties in person. By listening to what we said - and what we didn't say- Stacey formulated a solid understanding of what a house would need to have to become our dream home. When it came time to negotiate, Stacey was an excellent communicator and obviously skilled. We couldn’t be happier with the outcome and will always be grateful to Stacey for helping make our dream a reality. We lucked out when we found Stacey and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a top notch, dedicated, exceptional agent.
