About
Craig Shumway, Realtor
As a native of Arizona, with roots going back over four generations, Craig knows the area well. His knowledge and expertise will help you find a home in an area you love. He is also able to point out unnoticed or often overlooked property features or faults. When looking to sell a property, he knows how to highlight not only the home and its features but also the surrounding area and neighborhood to attract more buyers.
Often, when you go to sell a home—or even right after you buy—there will be work that you want done to fix it up or make it your own. With his extensive connections and network of professionals and service providers in the area, he will connect you with someone who treats you well and helps your house become a home.
With years of experience in sales, he understands the art of negotiation and will negotiate strongly on your behalf for better terms and a desirable outcome. At the end of the day, Craig has the heart of a teacher and will walk you through the buying or selling process so that you know exactly what to expect and when.
Being from this area and raising his family here means reputation matters for him, and his relationship with his clients is the most important thing—above earning a commission or anything else. Being hardworking, honest, and persistent in his representation of his clients is what has led to his greatest success in business.
When he isn’t working in real estate, you’ll find him competing in triathlons, camping with his family, backpacking through remote wilderness areas, volunteering at church, practicing freediving, or taking care of his chickens, pigs, and other animals at his backyard farm. Above all, his three kids and beautiful wife are of utmost importance in his life, and you’ll often find him with his family enjoying life.
One of his favorite quotes to live by:
Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do
