Former NFL long snapper Jon Condo is not spending retirement on the couch. He has quietly built a fast-moving real estate career in Phoenix, closing roughly $50 million worth of homes over the past year, largely in Arcadia and Paradise Valley. The run includes several seven-figure estates that changed hands in recent months and has quickly put him among the area’s busier brokers on luxury listings.
Business Journal tally
According to the Phoenix Business Journal, Condo’s year was even bigger on paper. The outlet reports he closed nearly $59 million in Arizona deals in 2025, anchored by an Arcadia estate valued at about $6.995 million. That tally reflects both on-market and off-market activity, drawn from transaction records and conversations with local brokers.
The gap between that nearly $59 million total and the roughly $50 million figure Condo cites appears to hinge on how privately arranged sales are counted. Some of those off-market deals do not always show up in the MLS data that fuel many public tallies, which helps explain the differing numbers without changing the scale of his activity.
Listings and public records
Public listings and MLS records back up the surge. Realtor.com shows a string of recent closings with Condo’s name on them, including 5144 E Calle Del Medio, which is recorded there as a $9.25 million sale. Other Arcadia properties listed through Compass and tracked on Redfin also show Condo appearing as either the listing agent or selling agent on multimillion-dollar homes.
From the field to listings
Condo spent more than a decade in the NFL before retiring in 2019, then shifted into residential brokerage and affiliated with Compass, according to his agent profile. Biographical summaries of his football career, paired with his professional real estate materials, outline that evolution from long snaps on Sundays to luxury showings in Arcadia.
His path reflects a small but growing cohort of former athletes who lean on local name recognition and community ties to make the jump into real estate. In Condo’s case, those networks now run straight through some of the most expensive neighborhoods in the Phoenix metro.
What it means for Arcadia buyers
The recent burst of seven-figure deals underscores how strong demand remains for large lots, views and new construction in Arcadia and neighboring Paradise Valley. Recent sales and active listings tracked on Redfin and other public records show sizable closings continuing through early 2026, a sign that Phoenix’s luxury segment still has momentum even as broader housing markets cool.
Brokers in the area say the agents who thrive at the top of the market are usually the ones who can move quickly on off-market opportunities and tap deep neighborhood connections. Condo’s recent run fits that pattern, with much of his volume clustered in a few high-demand pockets.
Condo has said his own internal tally, which includes privately arranged deals, comes in closer to $50 million and that he handled eight to ten transactions in 2025, according to reporting by Homes.com. Whether observers lean on the roughly $50 million he cites or the nearly $59 million figure reported by the Business Journal, the takeaway is the same: a tightly focused, local strategy and steady off-market work can add up quickly in Phoenix’s high-end housing scene.
