Russ Lyon Sotheby’s International Realty is dedicated to providing the highest service to today’s home buyers and sellers. This tradition continues with the recent addition of Global Real Estate Advisor Daniel Sotelo to our Tucson Office.
Daniel Sotelo is a Tucson native and a trusted real estate advisor known for his composed demeanor, strategic mindset, and unwavering discretion. He serves a highly discerning clientele—doctors, judges, and business professionals—who value intelligence, efficiency, and thoughtful guidance when buying or selling significant homes.
A graduate of the University of Arizona, Daniel’s professional foundation was shaped long before real estate. He began his career as a paramedic, an experience that required calm decision-making under pressure, precise execution, and the ability to manage complex situations where every detail mattered. Those skills remain central to his real estate practice today.
Licensed since 2015, Daniel has built a reputation as a consistent high producer by choice—not volume. He works with a select group of clients, delivering a process that is thorough, professional, and genuinely personal. His approach is measured yet decisive, ensuring that no detail lingers when timing is critical.
Daniel is especially recognized for his ability to see opportunity where others see complexity. He works quickly, communicates clearly, and navigates negotiations with confidence and restraint. Clients frequently describe him as calm, smart, and strategic—particularly during high-stakes decisions where clarity and discretion are essential.
His expertise spans luxury and architecturally significant homes, quiet listings, and lifestyle-driven real estate throughout Tucson’s most desirable enclaves, including Catalina Foothills, Oro Valley, Sabino Canyon, Ventana Canyon, and Dove Mountain. Daniel is highly skilled at positioning homes to resonate with sophisticated buyers while protecting privacy and maximizing long-term value.
Outside of real estate, Daniel has a deep appreciation for architecture, design, and the desert landscape. He believes that every move is about shaping a lifestyle—not just completing a transaction.
For clients seeking a steady hand, strategic insight, and refined representation in Southern Arizona, Daniel Sotelo offers a level of professionalism that inspires confidence from start to finish.
