Meet Your Guide: Megan Haynes
Buying a home can feel overwhelming — especially in today’s market. That’s exactly why I created this course.
I’m Megan Haynes, an East Valley real estate advisor and the founder of Heart to Home AZ. I’ve helped hundreds of buyers navigate the home-buying process with clarity, confidence, and a solid plan — whether they’re first-time buyers,
relocating to Arizona, or moving up into their next home.
What sets my approach apart is simple: education first, pressure never. I believe the best decisions come from understanding how the market works, what truly impacts value, and how to protect your interests every step of the way. This course is the same guidance I give my one-on-one clients — broken down into clear, practical steps you can actually use.
I live and work right here in the East Valley, which means you’re getting local insight, not generic advice. From pricing strategies and negotiation tactics to layout, neighborhoods, and timing, my goal is to help you feel prepared before you ever walk into a showing.
If you want to buy a home feeling informed, confident, and in control — you’re in the right place. I’m so glad you’re here.

Meet Your Guide: Kellie Quinn
Buying a home is a big deal — and you deserve to feel supported, heard, and confident every step of the way.
I’m Kellie Quinn, a local East Valley real estate advisor with Heart to Home AZ, and I’m passionate about helping buyers feel comfortable and informed throughout the entire process. Whether you’re buying your first home, relocating to Arizona, or just trying to make sense of today’s market, my goal is simple: make the experience feel clear and manageable instead of stressful.
I believe great real estate advice starts with listening. Every buyer’s situation is different, and there’s no one-size-fits-all approach. That’s why I focus on education, communication, and thoughtful guidance — so you can make decisions that truly fit your life, not just the market.
Living and working here in the East Valley gives me firsthand insight into neighborhoods, lifestyles, and what really matters beyond the listing photos. Through this course, you’ll get practical knowledge, honest perspective, and the same support I give my personal clients — without pressure and without confusion.
If you’re looking for a home-buying experience that feels informed, intentional, and a little less overwhelming, I’m so glad you’re here.

Meet Your Mortgage Expert: Matthew Lucas
Senior Loan Officer — NOVA Home Loans
When it comes to financing your home purchase, having someone in your corner who gets it makes all the difference — and that’s exactly what you get with Matthew Lucas.
Matthew didn’t start at the top — he worked his way up in the mortgage world beginning as a receptionist in 2002 and eventually became Director of Marketing at NOVA Home Loans before stepping into his current role as a Senior Loan Officer. That journey taught him what matters most: real service, clear communication, and putting people first.
Now licensed in Arizona, Oregon, Texas, and Washington, Matthew brings decades of industry insight to every loan, guiding buyers through credit questions, pre-qualification, financing options, and closing with confidence. He’s built his career on listening first, educating always, and making the mortgage process feel manageable — not messy.
Clients consistently praise Matthew for being responsive, patient, and downright supportive from start to finish — the kind of partner you want on your home-buying team.
When he’s not helping families get into homes, you’ll find him enjoying football, cooking, hitting the open road on his motorcycle, or spending time with his wife Jaclyn and their kid
