Get ready to meet the Realtor who’s blending festival flair with fierce dedication! In this episode of the No Excuse Pro Podcast, host Kevin Brierton sits down with Wendy Ortiz, seasoned Realtor and the heartbeat behind Wendy O. Real Estate.

Originally from Arizona and deeply rooted in the Valley, Wendy shares how her two decades of real estate experience—as both a buyer and seller—led her to become the trusted agent she is today. With a background in marketing and communications, Wendy offers a client experience that’s not just professional, but personal. Her attention to detail and deep local knowledge shine through as she talks about how real estate is more than transactions—it’s about building lasting friendships.

We’ll talk about:

• Why community involvement matters in real estate
• The role of festivals, family, and sushi in building balance
• How Wendy's journey empowers her clients to achieve more
