Welcome to Todd C Hurst – Your Trusted Real Estate Partner
At Todd C Hurst, we believe real estate is more than just buying or selling a property—it’s about navigating life’s most significant moments with confidence. Whether you’re purchasing your dream home, selling a property, or exploring investment opportunities, the process can feel complex and daunting. That’s why we’re here to guide you every step of the way. As your fiduciary agents, our primary responsibility is to act as your trusted guide, laying out all your options and their potential repercussions while ensuring you’re never blindsided by unexpected challenges. Our goal is to empower you to make informed decisions that align with your unique circumstances, saving you time, money, and stress.


Why the Right Agent Matters
The real estate market is ever-changing, driven by the decisions of buyers and sellers navigating their personal situations. Prices don’t simply rise or fall—they reflect a complex interplay of market trends, economic factors, and individual needs. While no agent can control the market, the right agent can make a world of difference. Choosing the wrong agent can lead to costly mistakes, such as mispriced listings, missed opportunities, or prolonged transactions, costing you thousands of dollars and valuable time. At Todd C Hurst, our fiduciary agents are committed to:
- Acting as Your Guide: We lay out all your options clearly, explaining potential outcomes and risks so you can make confident decisions.
- Protecting Your Interests: Our duty is to prevent you from being blindsided by unforeseen issues, ensuring a smooth and transparent process.
- Saving You Time and Money: With strategic pricing, expert negotiations, and proactive problem-solving, we maximize your results.
It’s important to note that while we provide expert guidance on real estate matters, we are not financial planners or lawyers. For specialized financial or legal advice, we’ll connect you with trusted professionals to complement our services, ensuring every aspect of your transaction is covered.
Real Estate is Personal
Every real estate journey is unique, often tied to major life events. Below are real-world scenarios involving a 2,000-square-foot, 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom ranch-style home on a 12,000-square-foot lot. See how we can guide you through complex situations:
Scenario 1: Selling After Divorce
A couple, married for 5 years, faces divorce and can no longer afford their home’s mortgage or maintenance. They agree to sell and split the proceeds, but one used a $100,000 inheritance for the down payment, creating financial complexity. We’ll outline all options, explain the implications of each, and guide them through a fair, efficient sale, preventing costly oversights and ensuring both parties’ interests are protected.
Scenario 2: Selling an Inherited Home
Your parents owned this home for 30 years, fully paid off and held in a revocable living trust. After their passing, you and your sibling, as trustees, decide to sell to settle estate debts, taxes, and distribute the proceeds. We’ll present a clear plan for the sale, coordinate with estate requirements, and highlight potential pitfalls, ensuring a seamless process that avoids delays and costly errors.
Scenario 3: Navigating Probate Disagreements
Your parents owned this home for 30 years, nearly paid off, but passed away without a trust. The estate, valued over $300,000, requires probate (ARS 14-3971, updated 03/31/2025). You want to sell, but your sibling wants to keep the property, causing tension. We’ll lay out all options—selling, keeping, or buying out your sibling—explaining legal and financial repercussions, mediating disputes, and guiding you through probate to avoid prolonged and expensive legal battles.
Scenario 4: Relocating After a Layoff
Five years ago, you bought this home at the market’s peak. After a recent layoff with a 6-month severance package, you need to sell quickly to relocate for better job opportunities, despite a slight dip in prices. We’ll analyze market conditions, present pricing strategies, and highlight risks like underselling or prolonged listings, ensuring a swift sale that minimizes financial loss and keeps you on track.
Scenario 5: Buying in a Shifting Market
You’re relocating to this area for a home in a top school district, ideal for your child’s sports talent, and close to work and family. You’re financially ready with a strong down payment and good credit, but media reports about a declining market make you question if waiting for lower prices is better. We’ll provide a detailed market analysis, outline the pros and cons of buying now versus waiting, and ensure you’re not blindsided by market shifts, helping you secure the perfect home without overpaying.
Our fiduciary duty is to empower you with clear, comprehensive options, anticipate challenges, and guide you toward the best outcome, all while protecting you from costly surprises.
