Supporting Local Small Businesses Is What We Do

At Rover Realty, supporting local small businesses is not a slogan. It is how we operate.


Strong communities are built by business owners who show up for each other, share knowledge, and grow together. That is why we regularly open our doors to host educational events that help fellow business owners succeed, without a sales pitch attached.

One of the most powerful free tools available to any business owner right now is their Google Business Profile. When it is set up correctly, it helps customers find you, trust you, and choose you. When it is not, you are leaving money and visibility on the table.


A Free Google Business Class for Local Business Owners


We are excited to host a free Google Business class taught by Kevin Frost of Standing 360. Kevin is a Google affiliate and works hands-on with businesses to help them use Google the right way.


This class is designed to help you:

  • Optimize your Google Business Profile for current AI-driven search
  • Improve local visibility without paying for ads
  • Follow Google’s latest best practices
  • Turn your profile into a real business asset, not just a listing


No gimmicks. No upsells. Just practical information you can use immediately.


Event Details

  • Location: Rover Realty, 7510 E Main St, Mesa, AZ 85207
  • Date: February 24
  • Time: 4:00 PM to 5:00 PM
  • Extras: Light snacks provided
  • Cost: Free
  • Capacity: Limited to 30 seats

Because this is a small, hands-on class, seating is limited. Once the room is full, registration will close.


Why We’re Hosting This

As a locally owned brokerage, we work with small business owners every day. We know how hard it is to run a business and keep up with constant changes in technology, search, and marketing.


If we can provide a space, bring in a trusted expert, and help local businesses get stronger, that is a win for everyone. Better businesses mean a stronger local economy, and that benefits the entire community.



If you are a business owner who wants your Google profile to actually work for you, this class is worth your time.

If there's one thing buyers are always searching for in today's market, it's potential—and this recently sold property at 528 S 111th Place in Mesa offered plenty of it. Situated on an oversized 13,885-square-foot lot with no HOA, this property presented a unique opportunity for buyers looking for space, flexibility, and the chance to make a home their own. The home featured three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a two-car garage, providing a solid foundation for future improvements and personalization. While the property was sold as-is, buyers often recognize the value that can be found in homes with strong renovation potential, especially when paired with a desirable lot size and location. One of the standout features of this property was the private backyard pool. While the pool was not currently in use, it represented an exciting opportunity for the new owner to restore and create an outdoor retreat tailored to their vision. In Arizona, private pools continue to be a sought-after feature, offering a place to relax, entertain, and enjoy the state's warm weather for much of the year. Another feature that made this property stand out was the absence of an HOA. For many buyers, the freedom that comes with no HOA restrictions can be a significant advantage. Whether it's the flexibility to make future property improvements or simply avoiding monthly HOA fees, homes without homeowner associations often attract a great deal of interest. Large lots are becoming increasingly difficult to find, particularly in established Mesa neighborhoods. Properties with nearly one-third of an acre provide room for outdoor living, landscaping projects, storage, and future possibilities that smaller lots simply can't offer. East Mesa continues to be a popular destination for buyers thanks to its convenient access to shopping, dining, parks, golf courses, healthcare facilities, and major transportation routes throughout the Valley. Established neighborhoods like this one offer a sense of community while still being close to everyday conveniences. This sale serves as a reminder that buyers are often looking beyond a home's current condition and focusing on its long-term potential. With a large lot, private pool, no HOA, and plenty of opportunity for updates, it's easy to see why this property attracted interest. Congratulations to both the seller and the new homeowner on a successful closing. Whether you're searching for a move-in-ready home, an investment opportunity, or a property with renovation potential, Rover Realty is here to help you explore your options throughout Mesa and the East Valley.

That's exactly what happened with this beautiful home at 954 E Devon Drive , which went under contract after just seven days on the market. Located in the heart of Gilbert , this property offered many of the features today's buyers are actively searching for: a functional floor plan, a well-established neighborhood, and convenient access to some of the area's most popular amenities. One of the biggest draws of this home was its location. Gilbert continues t o be one of the most sought-after communities in the East Valley thanks to its excellent schools, thriving local businesses, beautiful parks, and strong sense of community.
