Jay Thompson is the co-owner and Designated Broker of Thompson’s Realty, an independent boutique real estate brokerage serving home buyers, sellers and investors across the Phoenix metro area. Thompson’s Realty was founded in February 2008 in the middle of one of the worst real estate downturns in recent history yet has grown and prospered and now employs 14 real estate agents.
Operating as a “virtual brokerage”, Thompson’s Realty has no brick and mortar presence.

Jay utilizes no traditional real estate prospecting or marketing methodologies; instead he uses the Internet, social media and networking, and blogging to attract and retain clients and market properties.

Jay’s primary blog, www.PhoenixRealEstateGuy.com is widely read and recognized as one of the premier real estate blogs in the country. Inman Real Estate News named Jay as one of the “Top 25 Most Influential Real Estate Bloggers” in 2008 and Phoenix Real Estate Guy was awarded Inman’s prestigious “Most Innovative Blog” award for 2009.

Active on social media sites such as LinkedIn, Twitter, and Facebook, Jay has taken social media and networking to new levels. These tools allow Jay to reach across the world and develop relationships with both real estate professionals and consumers.

Jay’s use of blogging and social media has resulted in numerous interviews in the mainstream media including television, radio and print publications including BusinessWeek, USAToday, U.S. News & World Report, Phoenix Magazine, the Arizona Republic and East Valley Tribune.

Jay graduated Summa Cum Laude from St. Edward’s University and speaks regularly at local, state and national events on all aspects of blogging and social media. He is also certified by the Arizona Department of Real Estate to teach Continuing Education courses for Eagle University, a licensed real estate school in Arizona.
