TUCSON, AZ — RE/MAX Fine Properties opened its newest office at 245 E Congress Street, Suite 115, in Oct of 2025. It brings a fresh, people-centered approach to real estate in the heart of downtown Tucson. The new location places real estate directly inside the city’s creative core. It offers a space where community, culture, and commerce come together.
Located next to the Tucson Gallery, the office creates a welcoming environment where visitors can explore local art, connect with experienced real estate professionals, and experience a new way of doing business — all under one roof.
A New Kind of Neighborhood Partnership
Most people think of a real estate office, as something buttoned-up and separate from the flow of local culture. RE/MAX Fine Properties and The Tucson Gallery are proving that the future is far more integrated and far more inspiring.
The owners created a space where visitors can browse local art, attend community events, and meet with a real estate expert. This collaboration has turned the traditional business model on its head. The layout is open and welcoming. It is designed to spark conversation not just between agents and clients, but between artists, entrepreneurs, and neighbors.
“We believe real estate is about people first,” said Tony Ray Baker, REALTOR® and co-visionary of the project. “What better way to serve our community than to be literally embedded in the heart of it, surrounded by creativity, local talent, and the energy that makes Tucson so special?”
Redefining What It Means to ‘Work Local’
At its core, this new model is more about collaboration than colocation. The shared space enables organic cross-promotion between businesses. Someone dropping in to explore local art might walk out with a new home search underway. A homebuyer meeting with their agent will leave inspired by the vibrant work of Tucson’s artists. Many of these local creators have deep roots in the community.
And that’s no accident. This move was carefully planned to align with the values that both RE/MAX Fine Properties and the Tucson Gallery share: inclusion, visibility, support for local creators, and a commitment to keeping downtown Tucson authentic and thriving.
The space will also host pop-up events, workshops, and community meetups, making it a hub of creative activity.
A Blueprint for the Future of Real Estate
In an industry often slow to innovate, the partnership at 245 E Congress stands out. It reflects a growing movement toward deeper integration between real estate and community, one where agents are not just selling homes, but investing in the culture, creativity, and economic vitality of the neighborhoods they serve.
Tony Ray and the RE/MAX Fine Properties team are hoping other real estate professionals take note.
“This isn’t like any other workspace,” Baker added. “It’s a statement. We’ve shown what’s possible when you stop drawing lines between business and community and start building bridges instead.”

The doors are open at 245 E Congress, Suites 101 and 115. Come in to explore bold local art, connect with real estate professionals who care deeply about this city, and experience firsthand a model that might just shape the future of how we work — together.
