Meghan Backs

Meghan Backs is a highly experienced real estate professional with more than 20 years in the industry, specializing in REO, short sales, traditional residential, land and equestrian properties. She has been licensed in Arizona since 2004.

Flagstaff and Northern Arizona

Meghan's land, rural and equestrian experience is a natural fit for Northern Arizona, where acreage, horse property and cabins on well and septic are common. Working from the Phoenix office, she helps Valley buyers find summer homes and land in Flagstaff, Doney Park, Parks and Williams, and helps owners sell them.

REO and Short Sale Experience

From 2010 to 2012, Meghan managed REO inventory for major institutions including Chase, Bank of America, Res.net, CoreLogic and local banks, handling more than 120 properties in 2011 alone. She is skilled in complex transactions, including short sales involving multiple lenders, IRS liens and bankruptcy. That expertise led to referrals from industry professionals, including being recommended by her team lead to assist attorneys with divorce-related real estate cases.

Land, Rural and Equestrian Property

Today Meghan works with both short sale and traditional clients, with hands-on experience in land, wells, septic systems, and rural and equestrian properties. She worked full-time in the equestrian industry from 2022 to October 2025, deepening her expertise and network within the horse property community.

How Meghan Works With Clients

Meghan is known for her strong work ethic, problem-solving ability and commitment to guiding clients through even the most complex transactions with confidence. She took time from 2014 to 2019 to focus on raising her daughter, an experience that strengthened her time management, resilience and ability to balance priorities.

Outside of Real Estate

Meghan is an active volunteer with the United States Eventing Association, serving as Volunteer Coordinator for local shows in Flagstaff, and will step into a leadership role as District Commissioner for Salt River Pony Club in the North Valley in Fall 2026. She is also a proud full-time mom to her daughter, Avery, who already dreams of following in her footsteps as a real estate advisor.
