About Sandra L. Wilken and Sandra Wilken Luxury Properties
Founding Sandra Wilken Luxury Properties in 1995, Sandra Wilken was first recognized for representing major developments in Scottsdale, including The Phoenician and Gainey Ranch, and in recent years has grown to service Arizona's most prestigious communities in the Scottsdale, Paradise Valley and Biltmore area of Phoenix.
As the sole owner of SWLP, Wilken chose to own her company, rather than work for a large corporation; therefore, allowing her and her team to give the time and attention each client deserves when buying or selling luxury real estate. Founding her firm on a "Team of Experts" approach to sales in order to market properties more effectively than other agencies, Wilken has proven this approach as key to finding the right property.
With a reputation for being professional and having a well-documented track record for results, Wilken continues to grow her national contacts and global networking, expanding SWLP into a company of international stature. With a growing global clientele, Wilken has represented clients from across the world and recently broke the record for most expensive home sold per square foot in Paradise Valley. Recognized as an industry expert on the West Coast in 2005, Wilken received the highly acclaimed Residential Real Estate Superstars Award. Wilken was also named a Top 100 Woman in Business by Today's Arizona Woman and was recognized for her entrepreneurial success and volunteer philanthropies as the 2000 Golden Heart Award recipient.
