Sandy Adler

Sandy was born in Detroit, Michigan and is the oldest of four children. Her father was a certified workaholic businessman who included his children in his endeavors from a very early age, so it’s safe to say that Sandy was born in business.

After completing her undergraduate studies at the University of Michigan, and marrying her high school sweetheart, Ed, Sandy spent three years teaching emotionally disturbed teens in the public schools before returning to the business world to join the family importing and manufacturing business, which eventually included all her siblings and her grandfather.

After 20 years in the watch business, in jobs from managing production to merchandising and purchasing product from the Far East, Sandy left the family business and moved to Arizona in 1995. With a strong desire to spend more time with her children, Sandy chose the more flexible life of a college student and finally completed her Master’s degree in Mass Communications at Arizona State University with an emphasis on book publishing and journalism in 2000.

But the bug for business had returned and Sandy began to invest in Arizona real estate. The investing experience led Sandy to become licensed as a real estate agent in Arizona in 2001, a profession that she enjoys immensely and that she takes very seriously. Sandy has achieved the Accredited Buyer’s Representative certification and the e-Pro certification. Sandy has also become a Certified Residential Specialist, a designation held by only about 4% of the Realtors in the U.S. As a full-time Realtor, Sandy helps many people who are relocating to Arizona, buying investment property, and/or making life changes by moving from one home to another. Her exceptional communication skills are a tremendous asset in this job.

Sandy and Ed have been married for 33 years and have three grown children, Rob, Jeff and Dayna, who have added great joy to their lives. Sandy has a strong commitment to the community and is proud to be associated with the Valley of the Sun Jewish Community Center as the volunteer chairperson of the annual Jewish Book Fair and as vice chair of its board of directors. Sandy also volunteers as a Downtown Scottsdale Ambassador and is a Certified Tourism Ambassador, helping guide Scottsdale visitors to all that the Valley of the Sun has to offer.

She constantly strives for the balance that is essential to a full and productive life!

In my seventh year as a real estate agent, I work with clients all over the Valley of the Sun but mostly in Scottsdale and its environs. I work equally with buyers and sellers. About 90% of my business is by referral...I concentrate my efforts on providing the best service possible to my clients and not on finding business. My education includes a B.S. in Education from the University of Michigan and a Master of Mass Communication from Arizona State University. In my desire to always be knowledgeable about my business and what is going on in the market, I continue my education as a Realtor and have attained certification as an Accredited Buyers Representative and also as a Certified Residential Specialist, which only a small percentage of the real estate agents in the U.S. have achieved. I also hold the e-Pro certification which indicates that I am proficient with technology that is essential to today's real estate business. I am a Showcase Member of Realtor.com and also a member of Who's Who in Luxury Real Estate.
