About American Realty Brokers

The American Realty Brokers family of managers, agents, and partners are committed to the families of Phoenix & the Valley of the Sun, dedicated to an original vision of a real estate company fully devoted to the communities it serves. American Realty Brokers has been an Arizona licensed real estate company since 1984. When our customers talk about us, they use the words like: Trust Professional Helpful Available Caring Experienced Dedicated These are words that we strive to achieve with every client that we work with. Our goal is for you to experience the same level of service we provide to all or our clients. If you are looking for a professional real business broker, who you can trust, that makes themselves available to you, who is dedicated to you and has the experience to handle your type of transaction, then you need to call me for your real estate business needs.

I have been a Realtor and Business Broker for over 18 years. I do have a complete base of referrals and buyers for all your listing needs. 100% of my business is referral or repeat customers. With my wide range of reach over all three major market I have a lot of cross marketing which bring buyers from everywhere. I strive and work hard to make sure all my clientele is given the best service out there. I do not quit until I find a buyer for your listing and if you are looking for a listing I dont quit until I find you the right business for your needs. I use all the most state of the art technology to make the process smooth and easy and I always pick up my phone and answer your emails. You never have to worry about that. Please contact me if you are interested in my services, I look forward to working with you. Here is some reviews I received from clients: 1.) FIVE STARS! Mike Darmo was the second business broker that we signed with. After more than one year listed with a different broker, who left us very disappointed with months wasted on a very weak prospect, we sought out Mike. Within a few short days, Mike was introducing us to qualified leads. He was very responsive throughout the entire process. When it came time to close our deal, he was attentive and helped ease things over the last minute hurdles. We ended up selling at a price that was very close to our original asking price. The buyer is happy. The seller is happy! We couldn't ask for more. We highly recommend Mike Darmo if you are a seller. David P., Owner 2.) My name is Jim and I’m an Arizona Real Estate Broker with 30 + years’ residential experience and over 2,500 transaction sides closed. When it came to selling my N Scottsdale Membership based Spa, I didn’t attempt the task myself. After careful research I hired the area’s most productive Business Opportunity Broker: Mike Darmo with American Realty Brokers Mike under promised and over delivered. This guys a force of nature: He’s smart, fully engaged, works tirelessly and has the tenacity to get the deal done. Within days I received Multiple full-price offers, only 29 days from listing to successful close of escrow. Performance Outsells Promises! Jim L. Managing Member 3.) Mike Darmo practices a kind of customer service that is hard to find anymore. I now own my own business and Mike's patience and persistence are the reason. My first time through I was turned down for a loan and gave up on ever owning an existing business. After a few months Mike reached back out and encouraged me to make an offer because "it couldn't hurt." I offered what I could and the seller countered with enough to stay within my budget. We were in escrow! Mike kept in regular touch, guiding me through the process and talking me down when I was angry. Despite how busy he must be, he still regularly asked me for updates and moved us to close with a steady, experienced hand. This was not high finance but he took care of my purchase like mine was the most important deal in the world. I am forever grateful for Mike's assistance and highly recommend his services to anyone who wants to buy or sell their own business. Jack M. New Business Owner

What we observe

DealLedger publishes what is publicly displayed. Broker records aggregate every observed listing tied to this firm across our sources. Counts above reflect distinct listings observed, not closed transactions confirmed by the broker.

We do not have direct visibility into which listings sold. When a listing stops appearing in our scrapes, we mark it as no longer observed — but we do not claim it sold. Some close; some withdraw; some are re-listed under a new ID; some are simply missed by our scraper. We surface the observation; you draw the conclusion.

RIGHT TO RESPOND

If you represent American Realty Brokers and would like to add context to this record — corrections, updated bio, additional credentials — contact corrections@dealledger.org. Corrections are published openly alongside the original observation.
