Education
David Griffin is a real estate advisor with over 20 years of experience helping individuals, families, and professionals navigate important residential decisions across Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, Phoenix, and California. His work spans a wide range of situations, including move-up and luxury homes, corporate relocation, estates, trusts, probate, and long-time family residences.
David approaches real estate as a structured, thoughtful process rather than a transaction. He serves as a guide during periods of change, whether a client is relocating for work, rightsizing a long-time home, or managing a multi-step family transition. He helps clients make informed decisions that align with their goals, lifestyle needs, and long-term plans.
Before entering real estate, David built a career in media and marketing, leading radio stations and developing a strong foundation in communication, positioning, and market awareness. That experience informs how he markets property, advises clients, and adapts to a rapidly evolving real estate landscape.
David is a founding member and board director of Compass Plus and a member of The Karas Group. He holds the Certified Senior Advisor (CSA) and Seniors Real Estate Specialist (SRES) designations, reflecting his focus on working with older adults, multigenerational families, and clients navigating complex transitions.
Clients value David for his calm, pragmatic style, his ability to simplify complexity, and his steady guidance through decisions that matter.
