Because I live out of state (in Illinois), it was crucial to me to have good communication, and that expectation was exceeded! I would describe our Client/Broker relationship as a true partnership, and I felt very involved in every step of the process from listing to pre-market prep of the property to the final completion of the sale. I should preface this review by saying that I am a return client, as this is the second house that Temple has sold for me! When she brokered the previous house, in Phoenix, it sold in 1 week's time! And I found Temple after having had to “fire” my 1st Broker, who was very inflexible, ignored my ideas & input in preference to her own, and was generally unprofessional! Temple was the opposite of that and was a breath of fresh air, which is why there was no question as to whom I would turn for this sale! Some areas of exceptional performance in both sales include: 1. Informing me of current buyer preferences in that region so that we could maximize the appeal of the property, while at the same time being mindful of my budget constraints. 2. Managing the contractors engaged to prepare the property for marketing. 3. Temple's advice and expertise on arriving at an appropriate listing price to generate interest and elicit multiple offers quickly. 4. Temple's tact in handling the buyer who ended up purchasing it –– who presented some challenges related to closing on time –– went above & beyond the normal performance. 5. And generally, her attention to the many details involved in a home sale made everything flow seamlessly! Thanks a million for everything, Temple!

This is our second time working with Temple. Great experience.

Temple is always there for you. This is our 8th transaction. All have been perfectly executed!

Temple is the best!

Temple made buying a home really easy! She is knowledgeable and knows her stuff! I didn’t worry at all and felt like I was in good hands the whole time.

My husband and I have used Temple to purchase 3 homes, sell one and rent out another over the last 8-10 years. She has always been knowledgeable, prompt to address our concerns and questions and has been nothing but professional and friendly in every interaction we've had with her. We would highly recommend her to anyone that is looking to buy or sell a home-- working with Temple is like going for a walk in the park!

Temple is one in a million. We are grateful to have worked with her (she sold our home, and is currently working with us to buy a new home). She always paid attention to detail, never came with an excuse, like, "I can't do it now", "maybe next week", or "I'm so busy right now". She gave the extra mile that make us, the clients, happy. We would be glad to recommend her to anyone that wants to get their property sold and to have a dependable Professional that sees no barriers in moving forward to achieve that goal. In a scale from 1 to 10 she is a 12.

Temple was right on point and knew what we'd need to do to get our house on the market at the best price. She is diligent in her efforts and got the house sold within a couple of weeks. Temple is a motivated, hard working realtor that understands the needs of her clientele to get the job done!

I relocated from CT to AZ in 2011 for a new job position, which required me to get here ASAP and begin working and when it came to finding a place to finally "hang my hat", I had gotten her name from a friend. I found "going it alone" was overwhelming, in spite of or because of the advent of the Internet. I didn't know the area, who I could trust, and most of all who would take the time and do the work to help me and treat me not only as a person (and not a number), but as someone who really cared about my situation and treated me as a respected friend and believe me, it was about the money because, at the time, I was still several months away from buying. She's helped me find my last two condominium rentals within Scottsdale and I was so lucky to have her on my side -- she found me two beautiful homes that I was so proud to live in and within my price range. She helped me because she's a wonderful human being with a very kind and generous heart and I wouldn't even consider going to anyone else for my real estate needs out of loyalty, gratitude, respect, and for her expertise and knowledge in the field and in the Phoenix, specifically Scottsdale, area and market. I highly recommend Temple and I pass her contact information onto anyone who's in the position of wanting to buy or sell real estate. I trust her wholeheartedly in every step of the process. She's the consummate professional.

Temple was a pleasure to work with...friendly, knowledgeable, and always willing to take a call or call me back...she helped us sell our home to support a cross-country move and secure a good price in a slow market.

Temple is my Realtor and she did an amazing job finding me a house in under a month! She listened to what I wanted and was quick to jump in the car to look at houses with me. She's a professional and great at what she does. I highly recommend her to all my friends and family.

Temple was amazing to say the least. She found us the perfect home in the perfect area within three days of looking and we could not be more happy. You need to Trust Temple!

Temple has done 5 transactions for our family, extended family, and she is excellent. Very professional and knowledgeable in all areas of Real Estate, and is smart and a good negotiator. Highly recommended!

Temple helped us as first time home buyers and she was always there when we had questions or wanted to look at houses. We came to find out that we couldn't purchase a house because of new commission job rules and she completely shifted gears and we started looking for renting a house. She expanded the search and we went and looked at more. She was there through every step of the way during this process. She gave her personal experiences and advice and we love the house we are renting now. She continues to check in with us as well making sure everything is going well. I would recommend her in a heart beat to anyone I know looking to rent or buy a home, and also, anyone who has questions regarding the process because she is very experienced and has a lot of knowledge.

Temple was able to find my family a new home in the matter of two weeks. Temple new exactly what we wanted and how much we wanted to pay. We were able to upgrade our home and decrease our payment. Who else could find a 4 bedroom model home that would allows pets in Anthem for under 1200.00 Only our Temple. When I referred my friends that who were being displaced she was able to find them a new home meeting their criteria quickly.

We recommend Temple to anyone buying or selling a home. She did both for us. Selling our previous home in only 7 days. She then spent a huge amount of time and energy finding us just the right new home. Thanks Temple.

Temple assisted my husband and myself in purchasing and then selling our home in Phoenix, as well as assisted my brother in the purchase and sale of his home, and assisted my mother-in-law in the sale of her parent's home. Temple's advice, knowledge, and feedback were spot-on throughout all of these instances. She handled my dad's very intricate and frequent questions with ease and tact, gaining his trust quickly (which is very difficult to do). With the purchase and sale of our home, we were in another state, and Temple provided us numerous accommodations to make the process go smoothly. She was always quick to respond to any of our inquiries. We remain friends with Temple and look forward to using her again when we purchase another home in Phoenix. As you can tell from our first statement, we place her and her expertise in such high regard that we recommended her to our family and would recommend her to anyone (except the seller of any home we hope to purchase!).

I highly recommend Temple to anyone looking for a professional real estate agent! My home sale could not have been handled better - she exceeded my expectations tremendously! Her advice, market knowledge and communication skills are spot-on! As a first-time home seller, she was always available to answer questions and explained the process so well, I was totally comfortable with the process. Temple is a good person that really cares about her clients. I am thankful she was recommended to me and I could not have asked for a better outcome! I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone!

Temple was great to work with. I felt very comfortable with her and was able to trust her from the start. I had a unique situation but she went above and beyond in her understanding and compassion and made sure things moving so I was in the house on time. Temple offered great advice and had a lot of referrals and connections for different companies that will be able to help out with some repairs on the house. I consider Temple not just a great realtor but also a good friend.

If you want a truly dedicated real estate agent call Temple Blackburn. This is her profession and she takes it very serious. Easy to get along with personality. Patient! Knows the business. Doesn't make promises she can't keep. Temple will work 200% for you. She wants you Happy! What ever it takes.

I can't think of a more Professional and Qualified agent. Temple has always walked the extra mile for any help that I needed! PS I needed a lot of help!! Alan Pickrell

Temple helped our family of five relocate from Cincinnati, Ohio to Scottsdale this summer. It was a long process with many ventures out to look at property. Temple was amazing during the entire process, gave us great advice, and has continued to help our family make this transition. Even after the close of our house she coordinated many things that helped get our home ready for our arrival. I can't say enough about how great she is to work with!

I met Temple on one of my excursions to find a home, I felt extremely comfortable, with her, she ALWAYS had my back, never lead me astray even long after the transactions. Temple will always have my business.

There is only one person i will ever go to help me with my real estate and that's Temple. When buying my first home she held my hand through the whole process. Any questions i had she didn't hesitate at all to answer them. Very knowledgeable about everything. Never made feel like i wasn't being taken care of or like i was asking stupid or pointless questions. Gave me her opinion on homes. I highly recommend her to others!

I live in Massachusetts and from there, I was able to purchase a three bedroom home in Tempe. Ms Blackburn was my eyes and ears and through every step of the way kept me informed and acted to my best interests. I could not have done it without her. She's the best!

Very attentive to the buyers needs. Quick results in a short time. Very assissable and easy to get a hold of when needed. Helped in the negotiating process.

Temple took all the worries out of our purchase. She interviewed us, understood what our priorities were and then did the negotiating for us. It was never about her percentage but always about what was best for us, her clients. She is also a native of the region and therefore has an intuitive and in depth understanding of Greater Phoenix. We have recommended her several times and our friends have had the same experience we did.

Temple did everything for us. We bought the home a month before we moved to the area and wanted some changes made, she acted in our behalf making the changes happen. We were very grateful for her.

Temple Blackburn goes above and beyond selling you a home. She makes sure she knows who you are and what your needs are. Once she finds the perfect home for you, she also shows you the areas for shopping, entertainment, etc. We made a move from Ohio to Arizona and she made it so smooth and also helped us to get acclimated to the area. I loved her honesty and enthusiasm for Arizona. We recommend her highly.

Temple is an excellent real estate agent. She is expert in all aspects of the process. I live in another state. When my mother passed away I had a limited amount of time to spend with handling her estate. We also need to do some minor things to prepare the house for sale. Temple has great contacts who were both fair and did fine work. We got a good price for the house and closed quickly. This was a great relief. I don't think it would be possible for me to find a better agent. When I look back on the experience, as a whole, the thing that first comes to mind is, "Wow, this woman gets things done."

"My husband and I could not give a higher recommendation for Temple! She is knowledgeable, supportive and really listens to you as a client. She wants to put you in the right home and has no problem taking as much time as it takes to do it. She is extremely knowledgeable about the area, the market and homes. She is an expert in her field. When came time to make an offer on a house and then eventually negotiate - she was amazing! She advocated for us and got us more than we would have ever thought to even ask for. If you have the opportunity to work with Temple, do it!!"

Temple was fantastic during the whole homebuying process, working closely with ​my dad to find us the perfect house when I lived in another state. And getting my dad to trust you is no easy feat. She was so fantastic that she was who we called upon to sell that house, sell Grandma's house, buy and sell my brother's house, sell my in-law's house, buy my sister-in-law's condo, rent my house, and buy my current house. Why is Temple so fantastic? She is detail-oriented, kind, intelligent, reliable, and trustworthy. She makes you feel like a person, and not just a paycheck. Even four years after my last real estate adventure, I feel comfortable shooting her a quick question, knowing she'll respond quickly and help in any way she can. We've loved welcoming her into our extended family. I highly recommend Temple for your home buying/selling needs!!

Temple had sincere concern for me as a client, her integrity was constant as she patiently led me through the process of selling my property, and her apparent knowledge as a Realtor is assured.

Temple rocked! She provided excellent advice on the market, and we closed with a cash offer within 30 days due to her expertise in handling all the issues that invariably popped up.

Temple was everything we could have hoped for and more. At every turn Temple was able to make us feel comfortable and informed on such a big decision.

We had a great experience working with Temple. She guided us through the whole buying process. She always answered our questions in a timely manner and provided all necessary information. We would definitely recommend her to our friends and family.

I have used Temple's services on my personal home and a family home. She certainly goes above and beyond to meet our needs. We were extremely satisfied and highly recommend her services to anyone in need of real estate services.

A great agent.
