Semper Fi Marines, says Preston as he
salutes members of the Corps. Preston proudly served as a Sergeant in
the US Marines in the 1960's. Few know the lay of the land more
intimately than Preston. In 1999, he was honored by the Governor of
Arizona for promoting the state with his "Arizona Getaways" radio
program.
Although Preston has been a licensed Arizona real estate agent since
1988, for even longer, 26 years, was one of the most successful radio
talk show hosts in the country. In October of 2008, Preston
was inducted into the Arizona Broadcasters Association Hall of Fame in a
special dinner at The Buttes Marriott Resort in Tempe. His name was
added to the Hall of Fame, joining other Arizona broadcasters like Hugh
Downs, Steve Allen, Al McCoy "voice of the Phoenix Suns", Bill Heywood
and Buck Owens. He also won the Marconi Award, radio's "Oscar" for
best large market radio personality in the US, and twice nominated to
the Radio Hall of Fame in Chicago. Voted by Phoenix Magazine "Best Talk
Show Host", his program has been featured by every TV station and
newspaper in Phoenix. See more:
He also was the radio "voice" for some of the area's most successful
real estate projects-Troon, Grayhawk, Gainey Ranch, Stellar Airpark
Estates as well as The Sedona-Oak Creek Chamber of Commerce, L'Auberge
de Sedona, and Talking Rock community near Prescott.
Jumping into real estate in 2004, he was voted "Rookie of the Year" by
Russ Lyon for the highest sales volume of any new agent. "I'd like to
think I could live anywhere, but haven't found a better place than
Carefree," he says, having moved here over 27 years ago. He and his
wife Nancy produced the first video on desert survival ever made called
Stay Alive. Paul Harvey, a valley resident, congratulated Preston on
his broadcasts, and called "Stay Alive-a guide to survival in the Desert
Southwest" a "First-Class Safety Briefing."
Preston and Nancy know what it
takes to sell any kind of property, having completed the
multi-million-dollar sale of the legendary Boulder House in North
Scottsdale. One of the most famous homes in America, it was built
inside a pile of rocks and featured on national TV and even on the cover
of the Architectural Digest Magazine. It sold for $4.8 million dollars.
They currently list the most
expensive property in Maricopa County, the historic 117-acre Gold Hill
gold mine in Scottsdale, for $ 43 million dollars.
