Honor, honesty, and a natural desire to help others are traits that have made Bob Brokaw one of Tucson´s most respected real estate agents. An agent since 1993, Bob´s refusal to engage in high pressure sales tactics and easy-going manner has earned him the friendship and trust of Tucson home buyers.

 

Bob Brokaw believes in a rather simple philosophy which sadly is too often considered outdated in today´s business world.  It is called THE GOLDEN RULE.  Bob treats his clients the way that he would like to be treated. He shows home buyers how to buy the best house, rental property, or land at the best price.  Bob knows how hard you have worked for your money and he knows that buying a home or property is a big decision.

 

For those listing a home with him, Bob makes recommendations about simple repairs and modifications that can greatly increase the value of the home as well as what improvements can cause a home to sell quickly. He can inform you on the price (per sq. foot) that homes in the neighborhood have sold for and how long they were on the market.

Born in Orlando, Florida, Bob grew up in a community where a man´s word represented a man´s honor. These values of integrity were further entrenched at The Citadel, the Military College of South Carolina. Bob served his country for 20 years as an Airborne Ranger and Flight Officer. As a dual rated aviator, Bob commanded one of the Army´s largest fixed and rotary-wing units in Vietnam.  When Bob's company was assigned the mission of dropping South Vietnamese paratroopers into  the Iron Triangle, an area about 25 miles northwest of Saigon infested with Viet Cong. Bob saw an opportunity to be awarded honorary Vietnamese jump wings. He needed to make a total of five jumps with the Vietnamese units who were making practice jumps preparing for the mission.  Because Bob was a rated Senior Army parachutist, Bob's commanding officer reluctantly authorized Bob to participate in one or two of the practice drops only.  After making four jumps Bob learned there would be no more practice jumps; the next one would be for real.  Bob's tour of duty in Vietman would soon be over, so Bob applied for a 7 day rest and recouperation (R&R) leave to Hawaii.  Instead of going to Hawaii, Bob's own chopper pilots secretly dropped their company commander on the final combat assault on the Iron Triangle. He was the only American on the mission and did receive Honorary Vietnamese Parachutist Wings awarded by Lieutenant General Du Quoc Dong, Comanding General, Airborne Division, Rebublic of Vietnam Armed Forces.

Bob flew over a hundred missions during two tours of duty, to include many voluntary flights with Marine Corps Aviation when off duty from his Army aviation missions. 

 

Bob applies the same type of extreme determination as he exhibited in Vietnam to obtain his Vietnamese jump wings to real estate. Bob will not stop until you are satisfied. He finds genuine pleasure in knowing that he has truly helped you obtain your goal.

 

Bob Brokaw´s territory covers the exclusive areas of Sin Vacas, Pima Canyon Estates, Montanas, Cobblestone, Sunset Canyon, Manzanita, Westward Look, Cobo and Shadow  Roc as well as quality homes throughout the Foothills.  Bob submitted the very first lot reservation taken at the Preview Showing of Rancho Sin Vacas on the evening of 20 September 1978. He began construction of his home on Lot 157 in Sin Vacas in December of 1979 and became the first resident of Sin Vacas in April of 1980. In 2004, Bob and his wife Laraine torn down that original home and built their new home shown at the top of the home page of this web site.  Now who could know the Pima Canyon neighborhood better? 

 

So, if you are looking to buy a home and /or sell your present home, call your neighbor- call Bob Brokaw (520-219-3030).
