Experienced, Knowledgeable, Honest, Responsive, Personable, Empathetic. These are just a few of the words we would use to describe Lee Mendelzon. When we signed the listing agreement with Lee, he promised to "take care of everything". This was no empty promise! Among many other things, Lee organized some repairs to the house, introduced us to a wonderful Estate Sale Agent (Rose), and responded promptly to our MANY questions and concerns. He even found a buyer for our car! The sale of our home would not have happened without Lee's expertise, negotiating skills and patience. He is simply THE BEST!
We chose Lee Mendelzon to sell our investment condo at Optima Camelview because of his outstanding reputation in our townhouse community. His expertise and professionalism are incomparable. He is known for getting top price for all types of units. Lee was available day and night to answer all questions as well as for reminders. No question was too mundane, and he always knew the answer. His knowledge is vast, and he executed his duties with the utmost integrity. Despite my husband having an active real estate license, we entrusted Lee with this transaction, and we are so happy we did. You will be, as well.
Lee was recommended to us by several long-time members of the community saying he was the best in the area if not the greater Phoenix area. If you are looking for an agent that will give you an honest appraisal of your home, the market, and of your expectations, you found your guy. Always responsive and always to the point. Highest recommendation!
An outstanding realtor! So knowledgeable and such great advice. You really can't do better. Helped me find my dream home and also help me sell a home.
An agent that goes above and beyond. Lee was the sellers agent on my home when I purchased it. His expertise, knowledge and helpfulness with the first transaction were the reasons I decided to list my house with him. He made the sale of my home easy and pleasant and helped with issues outside of the transaction when I wasn't able to. I highly recommend Lee if you're looking for the right agent to represent you.
My Husband and I couldn't have been more pleased having Lee as our Realtor. Lee is very personable as well as professional. We were fortunate to have seen an open house sign and that's how we met. We had other agents working for us but they did not have the professionalism or motivation to help like Lee did. Lee is well connected and being from another state and trying to buy and find a property in Scottsdale was no easy task. We wasted no time in getting rid of the other agents and putting our trust and faith in Lee and he did not disappoint! His attention to detail is impeccable! We feel like we met the best agent in Scottsdale real estate. He worked diligently with my husband and I, as we planned our relocation to Scottsdale, guiding us each step of the way. Throughout the process I felt like Lee was looking out for our best interest and never once did I feel like he was trying to sell me on a house. Five stars dont do him justice...I am happy to recommend him to anyone and everyone I know thats buying or selling a home.
Lee is the ultimate real estate professional. We have used him in 2 buy and 1 sell transactions. He knows the market extremely well. He uses professional photography and brochure materials as well as complete and accurate descriptions of the property. We highly recommend Lee for all of your real estate transactions. - Vern Snider 11/4/2021
We just purchased a home in Phoenix using this realtor and I was amazed by the level of professionalism that Lee had. From start to finish he was deeply involved in making sure we had the best research available to make an informed decision, knowledgeable of all the considerations we had to make regarding location, cost, search parameters and how to achieve the best opportunity in a very competitive market. From the first house showing to the closing day, Lee was there to make sure we were making the best choice and our investment was sound. His experience shows, would highly recommend.
It was a pleasure working with Lee. We came from California where everything is different and Lee made the process so simple and seamless for us. Lee kept us in the loop in every step of the way and advised best practices. Lee is incredibly knowledgeable, true professional, very well organized and trustworthy.
I had the pleasure of working with Lee in both a purchase and the sale of my home.I found him via a for sale sign in a neighborhood I liked and called him and as always he answered right away and met with me the following day and was clearly very knowledgeable about the various neighborhoods. Lee is by far the best professional Ive ever dealt with and I have purchased and sold a lot of homes mostly with frustration with lack of good communication and follow thru with other agents.Lee responds to messages right away and does an excellent job of negotiating as well and he will not steer you in the wrong direction as I learned. Hes honest and also cares about his clients and he makes you feel valued and important and foremost wants you to be happy with your decision.He always go the extra mile to take care of details and make sure he keeps you updated as well. I could write a paragraph or more just about all that he did by going way beyond the extra mile but suffice it to say I am beyond grateful for his help.Being new to the area he also helped me with various referrals and advice as well. If youre looking the the Scottsdale area to buy or sell you will not be disappointed to have Lee help you. I am looking forward to working with him again in the future.
Lee is not only prompt to return calls, emails or texts, he is also quick to send updates, thoughts, or information related to the home, neighborhood and other sales in the area.He is courteous, professional, personable and approachable. I was amazed at the amount of detail he presents to you in the initial meeting to see if there is a rapport between him and the owner/s. He notices little details that either need to be taken care of or removed as it will help in the overall impression of the home and potential buyers. He is not afraid to get his hands dirty and get into the thick of things to help out with suggestions for technicians, tradespeople, vendors that can assist with any upgrade or touch up to enhance the home for sale. He even took the garbage out and brought the pail back in so as to make the home look fresh and clean. Personally, I do not enjoy the process of either selling or buying a home and tend to be concerned about a realtors true reason for trying to help in the selling or their impatience in helping me to check out homes, but, I would most certainly work with Lee again and would not hesitate to recommend him to my family or friends. He made the sell of my deceased parents home easy, stress free and respectful. He listened to our concerns, he helped to ease our minds and with his experience and knowledge we knew we were in wonderful hands.
Working with Lee has been an excellent experience. He really listened to my needs. He helped me narrow the search with his local knowledge of various neighborhoods and environmental factors (noise, traffic, etc.). Lee was very responsive and is an excellent communicator. He helped me understand the values of different areas of Scottsdale so that I felt very confident when it was time to make a decision. Lee is very organized and has a keen eye for details that made the experience extremely smooth. I highly recommend Lee Mendelzon and look forward to working with him again.
Lee goes above and beyond as a real estate professional. I was out of state when I sold my townhouse and Lee was extremely helpful. He took care of everything and made the process as easy as possible. I can not recommend him more.
Lee is a professional in every way. His knowledge of the Scottsdale market combined with his purposeful listening to our needs made a winning combination for successful results. He gently guided us through the evaluation and ultimately the course of negotiation helping us define what is most important to achieve a financially sound purchase. He went way beyond any expected response to assist us with the appraisal and inspection process and in getting estimates for repairs required. He was never too busy to quickly respond to our questions. He made us feel like we were his only clients, or certainly the most important.
Lee is the most amazing broker we've worked with. He knows the area so well and was very helpful guiding us to great locations. He negotiated on our behalf to get the best deal possible. Since we were out of state during the looking and purchasing process, he was especially helpful. He went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable with everything. His attention to every detail is very impressive! We highly recommend Lee for any buying or selling!
Lee's professionalism, attention to detail and understanding of the market are second to none. Amazing follow through on all the little details that make for a successful transaction. If you are buying or selling in the McCormick Ranch area - Lee is your agent.
Lee Mendelzon was extremely helpful and articulate in addressing our real estate needs. Mr. Mendelzon was very action oriented in negotiating the transaction and went above and beyond in terms of service.
Lee was obviously experienced, knowledgeable, efficient, and extremely trustworthy. We sold my moms townhome, remotely, in less than a week and closed in a month or so, remotely. Lee was great in every step along the way. We highly recommend him.
Lee is the best! I highly recommend Lee for all your real estate needs. He is very knowledgeable and knows the real estate business very well. He was very patient with me and explained every step of the transaction. I am very happy and pleased that I chose Lee to be my real estate agent. I highly recommend Lee. If you choose to use Lee as your agent you will be just as happy and pleased as I am.
After interviewing 4 potential realtors, we chose Lee to sell our property at 8094 Via de Valle in Scottsdale. Lee came prepared with statistical information relative to that exact area. He was well versed in preparing our home for open house as well as private viewing. Lee handles all the details, communicates well, and deals with honesty and integrity. He is an absolute pleasure to do business with.
No one knows Santa Fe (in McCormick Ranch) better than Lee. He is hands on and involved in every stage. He is communicative and responsive. These days many realty firms delegate things out and you only get the actual realtor for parts of the process. Selling a home is never easy. It is nice to have someone dedicated to supporting you.
Lee represented us in the sale of our home in Scottsdale. From the start, he explained the process in details and in terms that were easily understood and readied our home for sale. His communication skills are excellent, and we always felt "in the loop" regarding showings, prospective buyers, and the like. When we had an offer that was promising, Lee expertly negotiated the sale so we could get the price we wanted. Lee also shepherded us through the closing process, making what can be an arduous time that much easier. His service is excellent, and he clearly knows the Scottsdale market. We recommend him without hesitation.
Many people may find buying a home a pain or distasteful but that is likely because they don't have a realtor like Lee assisting them. He probed our must haves and desires for our future home, as well as our price point, and found one that fit them 100%. When we became a bit discouraged for a while about the lack of qualified inventory in our target locations, he responded that we shouldn't worry because he would find one that was perfect for us, which he did.Lee knows the entire sales process extremely well and has the ability to communicate that and the legalities of the same to his clients in a way that makes it easy to understand. At the same time he points out what to be wary of in condition and pricing of homes and the reality of home inspections. Lee's business savvy was able to get us the greatest benefits in the negotiations without jeopardizing the deal.His local knowledge and responsiveness was amazing - many times responding by phone or email within 2 or 3 minutes. Lee was early for every single appointment we had with him which is not easy in a place such as Scottsdale. He knows the neighborhoods (as well as many of the folks in them) and the pluses and minuses of each which is extremely beneficial for an out of state buyer. Lee has many contacts that can assist in inspections, remodeling and relocation, if necessary, which is very valuable. He personally helped us locate some furniture that another client of his was selling and then even helped move the same in his pickup after we acquired it at an extremely reasonable price.When closing came we were actually disappointed that we would be seeing and hearing less of Lee. When he called us in the days following to make certain we were settling in and enjoying our home, he cautioned us that he will continue to be in touch and will support us in whatever manner he can going forward.Above all, Lee has a tremendous balance of professionalism and a great sense of humor which is not always easy in the real estate business. We wholeheartedly recommend that potential buyers and sellers utilize his services. If we ever have occasion to sell or buy again in this area, rest assured we will use Lee Mendelzon!
Lee was great! We recently moved to the Phoenix area, with very limited knowledge of the real estate landscape. We needed someone that would provide truthful and honest insight. Lee listened to our home priorities, set up multiple searches based on our criteria, and provided thoughtful guidance / recommendations. Further, Lee gave us the time and space we needed to make a decision on a home purchase. Lee provided appropriate and truly thoughtful insight on the market (and the inventory that we sought - even when to walk away). Lee was a truly valuable and trustworthy resource that we needed being outsiders to the area. I would highly recommend Lee to anyone looking at purchasing a home in the Scottsdale area. We have already recommend Lee to other family members. Whether new to the area or long-time residents, Lee would be the valuable resource that you need with such an important decision.
I would definitely recommend working with Lee! He continues to be incredibly responsive to our questions - even after we closed! He is also very organized and transparent. He navigated us through every step of the process and was a strong advocate for us during negotiations. As first-time homebuyers that are new to the area, Lees knowledge and expertise was invaluable!
My father met Lee a couple of years ago when he was trying to decide what to do with his home. Lee gave my father guidance and became a friend in the process. I live in NY and spoke with Lee on many occassions and not met him until my father's recent passing. Prior to my trip to Arizona to get my father's affairs in order, Lee reached out several times to make sure my trip was smooth as possible and had everything I needed when I arrived which included a list of phone numbers for local utility companies and contacts I would need to get things done during my short stay.Upon meeting Lee in person, I found him to be genuine, personable and extremely knowledgeable. He helped me every step of the way. Once back in NY, Lee took over the process from there. He reached out to me often and updated me on everything being done all the way through to the closing on my father's home. I would highly recommend Lee Mendelzon. He truly cares about the client. I left Arizona with Lee as a lifelong friend.
I appreciated his QUICK response to my texts and emails and helpful courteous ways. Since property out of town he even picked up mail for me there and held in to personal things for me that were in my parents home so they wouldnt get lost. Hes great !!
Lee was my realtor for a home purchase and he made the whole process less stressful for my husband and I . Lee was such a professional to work and very knowledgeable. Very trustworthy . I'm so happy I had the opportunity to work with a realtor that you didnt have to worry about all the little or big details because he took care of everything. A great big Thank you Lee I will always appreciate the extra effort you put into helping us with the home buying process and how much you cared about your client and making us happy and feeling comfortable with such an important decision.
Lee Mendelson is without a doubt the best realtor I have ever hired to sell my home! His Knowledge, His Professionalism , His Wisdom, His Desire to sell my home in My Best Interest has been amazingly overwhelming! I only wish I could tell you all the aEURoeover the topaEUR? things he did for me when selling my home!! I highly recommend you call Lee Mendelson!! You will never regret it!! You will be very happy!!
My husband and I have bought and sold homes all across the country for over 20 years. Hands-down, Lee Mendelzon is the best real estate agent we've ever hired. He's hard-working, trustworthy, and a skilled negotiator. Lee has been with us through the entire home acquisition process, not just the purchase transaction. Not only did he help us by our dream property in a perfect location at a rock-bottom price, he also has been and continues to be an integral part of our subsequent remodeling project, providing the very best advice and referrals, all well-researched, qualified, and competitive. Choosing Lee as our agent was the smartest home decision we've made in Arizona. He is a consummate professional, thorough, thoughtful, and devoted to his work and his clients. Thank you, Lee, for the pleasure and privilege of working with you!
We worked with Lee to find a second home in Scottsdale. We have bought and sold a lot of real estate over the years, and can honestly say Lee is the best realtor we've ever worked with. He is extremely knowledgable about the Scottsdale market and the MCCormick Ranch area where we bought a home. Since we live in Colorado we had limited time to search for a house. We gave Lee long list of what we wanted, and were able to find something in two days because he only showed us houses that met our criteria. He was always prepared and very honest about the properties we were considering. After we made the offer Lee found some title issues that could have delayed the process, but because of his attention to detail we were able to resolve them early and close on time. We bought a house that requires renovation and Lee was helpful in scheduling appointments with potential contractors. He has continued to be available for help even after closing. If we ever decide to sell this house and find another one, we won't even think about working with anyone but Lee!
I have moved around the country and purchased ten homes over the past twenty years to include 3 in the Scottsdale/Phoenix area. Without a doubt, Lee was the most competent, professional, and helpful realtor I have had the opportunity to work with. This last move was particularly difficult as it took me many months to search for the ideal home that fit all my needs. To say the least, I was probably a difficult home buyer because I kept changing my mind or having different thoughts on what "all my needs" should be. Lee was always so generous with his time, patient, professional - he always came prepared with full knowledge of the home and neighborhood I viewed, and always returned my call or answered my email immediately or within the hour. Once I purchased my home, Lee didn't disappear like most realtors do - Lee continued to go above and beyond - he assisted me in familiarizing me with my pool equipment, AC, electricity, lighting, irrigation - you name it, he was knowledgeable! Lee cares about his clients - not as a "commission" check like so many do - but more like a trusted friend who will look after your very best interests. Still today, I will reach out to Lee should I need a referral and like clockwork, he answers immediately or calls me back asap with a solid recommendation. I rarely provide reviews - but in this one particular case, I thought it important that home buyers (and sellers) should know about Lee's excellence and if you want a trusted partner, you only need to make one call - to Lee. When it is time to sell my home, I will only call Lee.
As a RE investor, I've met and worked with more RE agents than I can remember Lee stands out, however, as the one who has the skill and personality to make a deal happen, and to hold it together when problems arise, and/or emotions come into play. Not only is he very knowledgeable about real estate, but he is always available to answer questions and/or to give input or assistance that goes above and beyond the basic purchase or sell. An extra bonus with Lee is that he has very good ideas about how to renovate or improve a property. If you're looking for a no-pressure, true professional, Lee would serve you well.
Lee was exceptional in helping us to sell our home of 25 years. He truly went above and beyond to work with us and continue to encourage us. He is extremely professional and an all around wonderful person that cares deeply about his clients. You won't go wrong if you choose Lee to represent you in your home sale!
Lee is a one in a million real estate agent. I have worked with him both as buyer and seller. His professionalism, communication skills, availability, attention to detail, timeliness, follow-up, knowledge of contract/legal issues and negotiation skills save you money and bring the most returns to your pocket. I strongly recommend Lee. He is always there for you and goes above and beyond just representing you, but assists with the process along the way to ensure everything is as smooth as possible.
My wife and I purchased a home in which Lee represented the seller. He was available within 15 minutes from us contacting him about the home after we found it. Even though Lee was representing the seller he was extremely helpful and was always available to offer advice and recommendations for my wife and I. He assisted with recommending a home loan consultant who was also just as responsive, helpful, and knowledgable as Lee. Lee made sure the entire process of buying the home was about as smooth and stress free as anyone could hope for. Lee also assisted us with his extensive contacts to help with finding contractors for the work we wanted to do before moving into our home. I seriously could not recommend Lee more. At the risk of sounding clichA(C), he exemplifies honesty and integrity. In the end I feel like we met a new friend rather than a real estate agent.

This is the first time I have written a review for someone, but I feel I must due to the amazing experience we just had with Lee while purchasing a home. Lee stewarded us through the process with such integrity and support that it allowed us to be excited about the purchase, not completely stressed out. He was always available to meet and answer questions, which was greatly appreciated as we had not purchased a home in over 13 years and never in Arizona. He also has an amazing network of referrals and each person we worked with was as kind and helpful as Lee. I know we would not have purchased if it had not been for him and we are SO grateful we met him and got to work with him. I have already told all my family and friends about him and give his name out whenever I can. Seriously, my mom just visited and wanted to meet him because we had such a great experience. Can't say enough good things about him and look forward to purchasing another home with him someday!
Lee Mendelzon is a highly professional, knowledgable realtor. I selected him as my realtor because when I interviewed him, he presented me with information which was well researched and thorough regarding the current market, recent comps, and a solid reference on his performance. He is a good listener, fair, honest and had a strong expertise throughout the process. I appreciated his continued communication with me during the time my house was for sale. He offered solid suggestions. Lee has excellent follow through, responsiveness and integrity. I would highly recommend him.
Lee was wonderful to work with, he made the process seem so easy. He is very honest, knowledgeable and patient. I always felt he had my best interests in mind throughout the whole process, and he is very committed to his clients. I lived in another state and came to search for a home for a few days and Lee was able to get the offer and the inspection done quickly while I was here and walked me through every step. He handled many things for me since I could not be there. He kept in constant contact with me and informed me of each step of the process. The lender he recommended was also fantastic to work with. The day I closed he brought me a binder with all of the paperwork neatly organized. Not only is he a fantastic realtor, he is a great person!
Lee was a total professional who stayed in close contact throughout the transaction. He handled all details including an out of the country buyer's agent with impressive skill and got us our price. By finding and hiring the professionals needed for the few fixes, he allowed us to concentrate on our own move. A bound copy of all the transaction documents was a great parting gift. We think the world of him.
I have listed my home with Lee and have bought a home that Lee had listed. In each case Lee was professional, conscientious and helpful. Lee listed our home and we had a contract within a week. He is willing to do whatever his client needs even if it's not something you think of realtors for. We are seasonal owners and could not be in town for many aspects of the marketing, clearing out the home and closing. Lee handled it all for us and we had a smooth, problem-free closing.

Lee by far is the most detail oriented and classy human being I've ever met. Lee has bought and sold homes for my family. He has put together the most extensive research and comparable binders. His attention to detail made us 100% comfortable with our decisions. Don't get me wrong. We had to be shown the light and swallow so honest but hard truths. But, ultimately he was correct. He had multiple connections in the finance field. He's used them personally and is happy to refer them. I never felt pressured to use any of them but, was impressed with the options presented. Not only was our immediate interaction amazing. He has never stopped being a great realitor. The day we got our key...he showed up with gifts for us and our kiddos. When I happily referred him to our friends and acquaintances... Our family receives thank you cards with movie tickets. You're not just getting a realtor with Lee. You get a lifelong connection (dare I say friend) who really does have your best interest in mind. He by far has the most business integrity (in any industry) than anyone I've ever met. I would be more than happy to speak with anyone personally!

This was the fourth time using Lee as our realtor (from 2005 to 2015) and we couldnt have been happier with the job hes done. Weve sold two homes and bought two homes with him as our realtor and throughout each process he was professional, knowledgeable, trustworthy, and meticulous. The homes we sold were sold quickly due to his superior knowledge of what needed done before listing to get the highest price possible. In buying our homes he took our complete lack of real estate knowledge in stride and answered (honestly and candidly) each and every question we could come up with. When I fell in love with terrible homes he was supportive but pointed out specific problems and explained potential points of concern; at no point did we feel any pressure to make an offer on a home that wasnt perfect. I quickly came to trust his instincts aEUR" hed come to completely different conclusions than me after looking at the same pictures but every time he ended up being right. He was always available when we would send him messages, more than once we toured potential homes less than a day from when we first saw the listing. In such a competitive market this kind of availability is crucial. Once we were ready to make an offer Lee kept in constant communication with the selling agent and provided critical advice on improving our offer which was invaluable. In addition to helping prepare and schedule inspections, which he not only attended, he meticulously went through the whole house and noted all potential problems. From start to finish Lee was there every step of the way with our best interests at heart right down to closing day. Without his help we would not be currently living in our current home which we truly love. Thank you Lee for being such a caring agent!
