Why Buckeye Keeps Growing
Arizona’s second largest city by area still has room to grow.
Buckeye sits about 30 miles west of downtown Phoenix in the Buckeye Valley. Settlers arrived in 1877, the town was founded in 1888 under the name Sidney and it took the Buckeye name in 1910. It became a city on January 1, 2014 and counted 91,502 residents in the 2020 Census.
The city limits stretch 30 miles north and 16 miles south of the original town center, so a Buckeye address can mean a historic downtown home or a brand new master planned community. A Buckeye real estate agent helps you compare them before you tour.
Deah serves Buckeye as part of her West Valley business, so she can explain how one community differs from the next and not only what a listing says.

Read More ReviewsAfter trying to buy a house in Arizona remotely from our old home in Massachusetts, Deah was the only agent (of several tried) my wife and I had success. She communicated quickly, honestly and followed up on all the details. She was recommended to us by another real estate agent who does not service Sun City West. She appears to have a solid reputation with both her peers and clients. HIGHLY recommended!

We would not have our dream home here in Arizona without Deah. I couldn’t have imagined purchasing a house before I saw it in person, but Deah’s professionalism, attention to detail, and calm demeanor made all the difference in the world! She is so responsive and trustworthy and Deah truly cares more about her clients’ happiness and satisfaction than she does about closing the deal. Deah is the one you want on your side during the stressful time of buying a home.

Deah was our real estate agent for our move from California to Arizona. Deah was extremely helpful as we had to view properties through FaceTime and she was able to point out issues that would have been difficult to see through media. She is very familiar with the area and her experience in the market was beneficial through the searching process and even afterwards as she is able to recommend services locally. She provided updates in the process and at least every few days she checked on how our sale was going and provided assistance or advice. The entire process in buying our home was seamless and I would highly recommend using Deah for any real estate transactions

I have dealt with many realtors in the past and Deah was the best! Deah was exceptional and went out of her way to assist us as an out of state seller. She arranged for flooring, house cleaning, house painting and staging. She was very responsive and professional. She is someone you can trust. I highly recommend her.

Deah is wonderful! Attentive and patient with clients. She helped my father who is 81 buy a home recently. She is very knowledgeable about the industry and the changes that take place. She goes above and beyond for her clients. She always available when you need her and willing to help with absolutely everything! We couldn’t have asked for a better agent. Thank you Deah for making his purchase such a breeze!

Deah was highly recommended to me and was amazing thru out my whole process. Moving to a new state is very stressful and I couldn’t of done it without her. She was able to help my parents get into there new home as well and had to relocate before me and I was able to be a little less stress knowing she was here to help them. Highly recommend and will forever be my girl for all my real estate needs but more than that she’s a lifetime friend 💕
