Josh Marquez

Designated Broker, HomePros · Director, Avance School of Real Estate (ADRE License S22-0004)

Josh Marquez is the Designated Broker of HomePros, a Phoenix-area residential real estate brokerage, and Director of Avance School of Real Estate LLC, an Arizona-licensed continuing education provider focused on the intersection of artificial intelligence and real estate compliance (ADRE License S22-0004).

He founded Avance School of Real Estate in April 2022 as an in-person continuing education provider for Arizona real estate licensees. In February 2026, the school relaunched with an AI-powered platform built around the intersection of artificial intelligence tools and Arizona regulatory compliance — addressing a gap Josh encountered as a working broker: Arizona agents had access to AI tools but no reliable source explaining which tools actually save time, which create regulatory exposure, and how to deploy them in a practice that stays compliant with the Arizona Administrative Code and Arizona Revised Statutes.

Areas of Expertise

• Arizona real estate brokerage regulation under A.R.S. Title 32, Chapter 20
• Arizona Administrative Code Title 4, Chapter 28 (ADRE rules)
• Designated broker responsibilities, including supervision, advertising review, and material adverse facts disclosure
• AI-assisted real estate workflows including BINSR drafting, SPDS review, advertising compliance, and transaction documentation
• ADRE Substantive Policy Statements interpretation and implementation
• Real estate continuing education curriculum design

Avance School of Real Estate

Josh founded Avance School of Real Estate LLC in April 2022 as an ADRE-approved continuing education provider. The school offers 6 ADRE-approved CE courses, each anchored in A.R.S., A.A.C., ADRE publications, federal law, and Arizona case law rather than NAR or AAR materials. Avance also operates Pass Prep, an AI-powered Arizona salesperson exam preparation product.

The school's editorial position, articulated across its public publication My Techie Broker, is that AI is leverage for the work agents actually do — and a tool isn't a substitute for judgment, automation isn't a substitute for broker supervision, and a tech stack isn't a substitute for regulatory understanding.

HomePros

As Designated Broker of HomePros, Josh oversees agent practice in the Phoenix metropolitan area with particular focus on transaction compliance, advertising review under A.A.C. R4-28-502, and supervision under ADRE's evolving Substantive Policy Statements on teams, unlicensed assistants, and fingerprint clearance requirements.

Publications

Josh publishes My Techie Broker, a weekly publication for Arizona real estate licensees covering ADRE rule changes, Arizona market data, and practical AI workflows for agent practice. The publication is the editorial voice of Avance School of Real Estate.
