About Joanna Condé
Joanna Condé is a Certified Residential Real Estate Appraiser and licensed REALTOR® with HomeSmart, serving Sun City, Sun City Grand, Sun City West, Peoria, and Surprise, Arizona. In 1988 she founded Conde Appraisal Associates in Peoria, Arizona — a certified residential appraisal firm serving lenders, attorneys, courts, estates, and families across the West Valley. Over the next 38+ years she appraised thousands of properties, testified as an expert witness, served as a court-appointed appraiser, supervised and trained other appraisers, and rose to serve as President of the Arizona Association of Real Estate Appraisers (AAREA), the largest appraiser association in Arizona. She is also an AQB Certified USPAP Instructor, certified to teach the national ethics and standards that govern every licensed appraiser in the country.
After 30+ years of seeing real estate from the appraiser's chair, Joanna transitioned into real estate sales — bringing every bit of that valuation expertise directly to her clients. She is most known for how she takes care of people: walking beside her clients through every step, explaining the process in plain language, and putting her trusted network of local handymen, contractors, electricians, plumbers, movers, and estate cleanout crews to work on their behalf.
