Meet Iliana, your Realtor
I've bought, sold and relocated myself ... and I'm here to help you in your process!
Seven years ago, I moved to Arizona without knowing a single person here. Now? I can't imagine living anywhere else. That experience — the uncertainty, the excitement, the questions nobody warns you about — is exactly why I became the Realtor I am.
I prepared guides to help you understand your process better.

Following Love Across the Border
hen life did what life does. I met someone. And when you meet the right person, the map you've been following starts to look completely different. I moved to Yuma, Arizona. A new country. A new real estate system.
CHAPTER TWO:

I got my license. Walked into YRP and introduced myself to the people who would change everything.
Here's what I want you to know about YRP: I showed up with zero contacts, brand new license, and a real estate background that wasn't exactly the same. They could have made me feel like a long shot.
Instead, they made me feel like the right bet.
That kind of belief — given freely, before you've earned it — changes a person, and I'm forever grateful.

CITY THAT MADE ME BELIEVE
ANYTHING WAS POSSIBLE
The Plot Twist I Didn't See Coming
y husband had dreams too. Big ones. So when his path pointed to Tucson, we packed up everything.
I arrived pregnant with twins, knowing exactly nobody. And for the first time in my adult life, I stopped. Not because I gave up — but because something more important was happening.
CHAPTER THREE:
M
"I made the decision that has never once felt like the wrong one:
I would become a mom first. Everything else could come after."
What followed was one of the most disorienting and beautiful periods of my life. In between the chaos and joy of it all, I started doing something I hadn't given myself time to do in years — I explored. I walked neighborhoods with a stroller. I found hidden parks and farmers markets. Tucson was getting under my skin.
The desire to get back to real estate never went away. But now it was rooted in something deeper than ambition.
I wanted to help people find this. This city. This feeling.
The Part Where It All Came Together
o I came back. To real estate, to YRP, to the work I love — this time in Tucson, with twin toddlers at home and a city I knew in my bones. Nine years have passed. Over 100 families served.
CHAPTER FOUR:
S
Every closing still gets me. The first-time buyer standing at the door of a house that is now, officially, theirs — there's a moment right before they step through, when they pause. They look at the key in their hand. I know exactly what they're feeling.
This isn't a career I fell into. It's one I built, piece by piece, across two countries and three cities and more than a decade of showing up for people on the biggest days of their financial lives. The fact that I get to do it in Tucson — a city I genuinely, deeply love — feels like the ending of a story that hasn't actually ended yet.
I listen before I talk
I explain everything
you get me, not an assistant
I speak BOTH enGLISH & esPAÑOL
i know this city deeply
i negotiate hard for you
Before I show you a single house, I want to understand your story — your goals, your timeline, your worries.
Your agent's negotiation skills can mean the difference between getting the home and losing it. I know how to win.
When you call, I pick up. When you text, I reply. Always the same person who knows your file and your name.
Not just the streets — the neighborhoods, schools, hidden gems. Tucson is my home. I want it to become yours.
Real estate jargon, broken down in plain language. You'll always know exactly where you are and what comes next.
If you or your family is more comfortable in Spanish, we'll do this in Spanish. No language barrier, ever.
