Choose the path that best matches the decision in front of you. Each connects practical education and property-level analysis with the appropriate service.
Residential Real Estate
Buy or sell a home, plan a relocation, understand value or navigate a property decision tied to a major life transition.
Commercial & Multifamily
Evaluate acquisitions, dispositions, leasing, value, underwriting, development questions and owner-level decisions across commercial and multifamily properties.
Investors
Address investment strategy, underwriting, 1031 exchange planning, private partnerships, family-office relationships and wider financial considerations.
Rookies in Real Estate
Practical education for buyers, sellers, homeowners, beginning investors and newer Arizona licensees who want clearer real estate fundamentals.
Property and transaction guidance connected to the larger decision
A useful conversation starts with the property, your objective, the constraints, the people involved and the timing. From there, we focus on the evidence and execution the decision requires.
- Residential: property search, pricing, marketing, negotiation, relocation and transition-specific representation.
- Commercial and multifamily: acquisitions, dispositions, tenant and landlord representation, valuation, underwriting and development strategy.
- Investors and owners: basis, income durability, lease and tenant risk, capital needs, financing, downside scenarios, portfolio fit and exit planning.
- Education: practical guidance that helps clients understand the decision before selecting a transaction path.
Principal-led by Arizona Associate Broker Ian Johnson
When you work with TFI, you work directly with Ian Johnson, an active Arizona real estate broker employed as an Associate Broker with Libertas Real Estate, LLC. His perspective comes from residential and commercial brokerage, leasing, property management, ownership, investment analysis and private real estate fund management.
Ian has worked in real estate since 2010 and earned a B.S. in Real Estate from Arizona State University’s W. P. Carey School of Business. The working relationship is deliberately direct: get clear on the assignment, evaluate the trade-offs, coordinate the professionals the decision requires and stay engaged through execution.
How TFI approaches an assignment
The analysis should fit the property and the decision, but the basic sequence remains consistent.
1. Define the decision
Get clear on the property, the people involved, the objective, the constraints, the timing, who has authority and what information is already available.
2. Build the evidence
Build the record around the decision: market context, comparable evidence, condition, operations, leases, financing, risk and the assumptions that could change the outcome.
3. Compare viable paths
Compare the realistic alternatives, including price, timing and exposure as well as the choice to hold, improve, refinance, lease, sell or wait when those options apply.
4. Execute and coordinate
Carry the real estate work through negotiation and execution while coordinating with legal, tax, lending, title, appraisal, engineering and other professionals as appropriate.
Greater Phoenix Area core, Arizona coverage and selective national reach
The right geographic scope depends on the property, the service, the market knowledge required, licensing and the realities of execution. It is not a claim of blanket coverage.
Greater Phoenix Area
This is where TFI’s residential and commercial experience is deepest: Phoenix, the East Valley, the West Valley, Scottsdale, Paradise Valley and surrounding communities.
