Christina Catalano leads the Ventana Fine Properties advisory from Paradise Valley, Arizona, where she has spent twelve years placing buyers into homes most people never see listed. Her work lives in the off-market — the hillside estate passed between two families, the custom build held quietly for the right occupant, the acreage with a view corridor that never reaches the MLS.
Before Ventana, Christina represented sellers and acquirers through Real Broker across the greater Phoenix metro, closing more than two hundred residences along the Camelback, Mummy Mountain, and Lincoln Drive corridors. She holds a deep network of architects, stagers, and title partners — assembled one closing at a time, not leased from a corporate roster.
The practice is deliberately small. Christina takes on no more than eighteen active listings in a calendar year, so each property receives the staging, photography, and negotiation attention it deserves. The result is a portfolio that closes above ask more often than the regional average, and clients who return for their second and third homes.
Every engagement begins with a private conversation, not a listing presentation. Christina works with a small number of clients each season so that the strategy, marketing, and negotiation are tailored — never templated.
Below is the full scope of the practice, with indicative pricing for the most common engagements. Bespoke scopes are quoted privately.
Full-cycle seller representation for primary residences and investment estates from $1.2M to $12M. Includes pre-listing valuation, architectural staging, cinematic photography, a private preview event, MLS exposure, and negotiation through close of escrow.
Concierge buyer representation including off-market sourcing, private showings, comparable analysis, offer strategy, inspection coordination, and escrow management. Ideal for relocating executives, second-home buyers, and land acquisition.
Long-term leasing for single-family residences and seasonal furnished rentals. Includes tenant screening, lease drafting, and quarterly property oversight.
A written, comparable-sourced opinion of value for estate planning, divorce settlement, trust funding, or pre-sale strategy. Includes a forty-page bound report.
Hourly strategic advisory for relocating executives, trust attorneys, and family offices navigating the Phoenix market. Covers neighborhood selection, school district review, and acquisition timing over a six-month engagement window.
A private conversation at the property, a coffee in Old Town, or a video call — whichever suits. We discuss timeline, motivation, and what an excellent outcome looks like for you specifically.
A tailored plan: pricing rationale, marketing calendar, staging direction, and a shortlist of likely buyers or properties. Delivered as a bound document within ten business days.
Photography, private previews, MLS exposure, showings, and offer review. Christina handles every call personally — no junior agents, no call center, no handoffs.
Inspection coordination, title review, and a calm walk through escrow. You receive keys, closing documents, and a written follow-up plan for the first year of ownership or proceeds.
