About Tara

Tara fully understands and recognizes that a move is not always just about the house. She prides herself on listening closely to you, her clients, to hear your needs and priorities and to work with you to make your move as successful as possible. A Twin Cities native, Tara truly appreciates all that Minneapolis and the surrounding areas have to offer. She grew up near Excelsior, graduating from Minnetonka High School. She then went on to Boston College, driven by the opportunity to play Division 1 tennis and to explore life on the East Coast. Tara played for and traveled on the women’s tennis team while studying and earning a BA in economics. After a year of travel, she returned to the Twin Cities area for a job with Target on their merchandising side. Tara enjoyed the variety of challenges that came with working as an analyst of different business units and managing the teams behind them. A unique opportunity presented itself, and she switched careers to join a family business, appreciating all that was learned in running all aspects of this business. Eventually, things aligned and her career in real estate began. It is the balance of business investment and creative connection coming together that energizes her. Tara recognizes the importance of the financial investment with the need to find sanctuary in your space.

All around excellent realtor.

This is my second time using Tara to sell a home. She is the consummate professional and makes the process seamless and easy for home sellers. I highly recommend her, whether you are buying or selling a home. You will not be disappointed - she will work incredibly hard for you and produce results.

Smart, responsive and always in our corner!

Tara was a phenomenal partner! She was so helpful as we tried to narrow down our search and figure out what was most important to us. Once we were clearer on the scope of our house search, she was a great partner in seeing what was available and working around our limited time in the market to see things in person. Once we identified the house we wanted to make an offer on, she was so helpful in thinking through our offer and negotiation strategy and was with us every step of the way through offer acceptance, inspection, etc. She went out of her way for us whenever we needed her. I recommend Tara highly!

Tara is the most attentive, hard-working, and enjoyable agent we have ever worked with!

Tara worked in true partnership with us on the sale of our home. She was responsive to our specific time constraints, and was always one step ahead in the closing process. Tara was knowledgable about the market and neighborhood, and detail-oriented and present at showings. We are grateful to Tara for going above and beyond in every way, and would absolutely recommend using her as your agent!

Committed agent

Tara was a great agent to work with. She communicated with us well and was committed to getting our house sold for the best price. She personally handled open houses and worked well with the buyers' agent to make the process as smooth as possible.
