A 36-Year Legacy of Real Estate Expertise

For over three and a half decades, Allen M. Erb has been a respected figure in Arizona real estate. Thirteen years ago, driven by a desire to work across every facet of the industry, Allen founded Erb Realty—an independent firm built on adaptability, integrity, and client-focused service. With deep expertise ranging from standard sales to short sales and foreclosures, Allen and his team are widely regarded as professionals who can handle a wide variety of situations that come their way. “In this business,” Allen shares, “you have to be ready for anything—and we strive to be.”

Advocating for the Underserved

In a market often focused on luxury, Allen has made it his mission to serve a demographic that many agents overlook: the middle- and lower-income buyers who make up the backbone of the community. “Most people live paycheck to paycheck,” he says, “and they’re not sure how to purchase a home or what their options are.” At Erb Realty, the goal isn’t just closing transactions—it’s empowering people. Allen and his team provide tools, education, and honest guidance to help everyday buyers feel more confident and capable on their path to homeownership.

They help clients with little or no credit, offering step-by-step coaching on how to improve or establish creditworthiness. Many renters who come through Erb Realty’s doors leave with the knowledge and strategy they need to potentially become homeowners, sometimes even transitioning into ownership of the very homes they rent. For Allen, that kind of transformation is what real estate can be about: lifting people up, one property at a time.

Earning Federal Recognition

Today, Erb Realty is expanding its reach in new and meaningful ways. Allen Erb, Marine Veteran, recently secured Federal certification by the Small Business Association and is now a (VOSB) Veteran-Owned Small Business, an important milestone that enables them to contract directly with government agencies. This opens potential doors to manage government-owned properties, bid on federal real estate contracts, and expand their services in the areas of acquisition, sales, and property management. For Allen, this recognition is not only a professional achievement—it’s a platform to potentially broaden the firm’s impact across both public and private sectors.

Experience, Grit, and Heart

What truly sets Allen apart after 36 years is his unwavering commitment to people—especially those often left behind in the housing conversation. His business isn’t built on flash or volume, but on grit, heart, and a belief that everyone should have the opportunity to own a home they’re proud of. Whether it’s navigating the nuances of a foreclosure, helping a first-time buyer build credit, or expanding into government real estate services, Allen meets every challenge with the same philosophy: listen, educate, and serve.

With Erb Realty, Allen M. Erb has created more than a brokerage—he’s fostered a movement rooted in equity, opportunity, and hands-on support. His legacy is measured not only in years or sales, but in the lives changed along the way.
