Russ Lyon Sotheby’s International Realty

 Russ Lyon Sotheby’s International Realty is dedicated to bringing the highest level of service to today’s home buyers and sellers. This tradition continues with the recent addition of luxury Real Estate Advisor, John Stavros, to the Camelback Tower Office.

Russ Lyon Sotheby’s International Realty agents strive to deliver real estate experiences beyond expectations to enhance lifestyles for their clients, expanding their reputation as the most respected name in real estate. 

John Stavros is a first-generation Greek-American, fluent in Greek and English. As the son of Greek immigrants, he learned early on in his life that hard work and sacrifice is the key to accomplishment. As a result, he earned his bachelor’s degree in business with a concentration in real estate, finance, and law – an achievement that would jumpstart his drive to be successful in his future endeavors. 

John started and grew a thriving office coffee and vending business, which a multibillion-dollar company acquired in 2018. He also successfully managed numerous real estate property acquisitions, where he oversaw full-scale renovations and sales. His experience with renovations and investment properties sparked a deep interest in helping people buy homes. He joined Russ Lyon Sotheby’s International Realty as a  REALTOR® to pursue that aspiration and use his extensive experience serving customers to help clients find the perfect home or next investment. 

For John, the thought of being able to assist a homeowner with a purchase that may only happen a few times in their lifetime is an honor and privilege. He shows his clients that first and foremost, he will protect their interests as his own. 

Boating, hiking, and exploring all the valley’s amazing places are just a few of John’s interests. In addition, he loves spending time with his family, who recently adopted a husky puppy that is training to be a service dog for his son. They also are becoming active in the equestrian community for his daughter, who loves riding horses. 

John’s business sense is evident from the first conversation. His business savviness will carry from one business venture to the next, we are proud to have him associated with our brand.

As a North Scottsdale resident working in the luxury housing market, Adrienne’s love of architecture, design, and building prompted her into real estate as a career. When Adrienne is not working she enjoys traveling with her family. Adrienne is a busy mom, raising her son and daughter who are both very active in sports. With a love for fitness and the outdoors, the entire family loves camping and hiking in northern Arizona.

It’s been a pleasure getting to know Adrienne and learning about her goals and aspirations. She’s a sharp mind individual with attention to detail and is a wonderful representation of our brand.
