Bio
Since 2013, Ed Pennington has been Sedona's #1 REALTOR IN ALL OF NORTHERN ARIZONA in residential real estate. Since 2002 Ed has been consistently awarded the "TOP 20" Realtors in Northern Arizona. Ed's desire to grow the business led him to Jeanette Sauer, his real estate partner. Together they are recognized as the #1 Premier Real Estate Team" since 2015 !
Ed Pennington graduated from a Military High School and then attended the University of Arizona where he received his BS degree. After graduating, he managed a retail men's clothing store until one day he and his high school best friend were asked to play guitars and sing at a local night club. Well, Ed quickly decided to quit the long hours of managing the clothing store and work full time as a musician. He and his buddy "Kim" found themselves playing music all around the country and opening for acts such as "The Ink Spots", Little Anthony and The Imperials' and "The Stories" just to name a few.
After approximately 5 years of the music business Ed decided to open an athletic footwear business know as "The Athlete's Foot" store and opened retail stores in Ohio, Arizona and Texas. The retail business led him to exporting one of the nation's largest quantities of Nike, Reebok, Converse and Adidas shoes into Mexico and South America.
This business also led Ed to Arizona where he got his first taste of the Real Estate business by joining up with his partner Dave Fraker in the building/development business in Tucson. Ed and Dave were quite successful builders and eventually helped develop 356 acre parcels of vacant land in Tucson. Ed spent almost 10 years developing and building luxury homes within that project where he still returns today to his friends that he sold beautiful lots to in "Finisterra".
When that project was completed, and wanting to be closer to his mother who was in failing health, Ed moved back East where he purchased a Chevrolet dealership and soon added Mitsubishi to the mix. After successfully turning the dealership around he became partners with a local Cadillac Oldsmobile dealer and put Chevrolet, Cadillac and Oldsmobile under one roof.
Ed eventually sold his share to his partner and was asked to become the CEO of a local children's home that took care of abused and neglected children who were wards of the state. Not having children of his own or a background in "social work" Ed found this job to be quite the challenge but once again he succeeded in taking care of over 400 children with a lot help from his staff. Ed remembers the sad stories the children had to tell but is happy that many of the children in their care had successful outcomes and are now important people in society who made it through the tragedy of their childhood.
Ed had an opportunity to move back to Arizona and took the leap and got into the Real Estate business in 2002 . With the prestige of Sotheby's world-wide name recognition for luxury properties, the choice is clear - this team will get you the result you want - whether buying or selling!
