About Tara

Each day I get to wake up and assist homeowners in making their dreams come true! Home ownership is a part of the American Dream and I consider myself extremely fortunate to assist clients with the sale or purchase of their most valuable asset. This is not something that I take lightly or for granted. What I do each day impacts the every day lives of my clients and it is my responsibility to ensure that they capitalize on the sale or purchase of a home in any way possible. I love the fact that each home sale that I navigate through is unique and different. It’s like starting a new adventure each time I help a client buy or sell a home. I learn how to handle the curve balls that may be thrown my way and each day gain more knowledge and insight in order to better assist clients moving forward. Overall, I do not consider what I do a job. I am one of the few people who is extremely blessed to love what I do. When you love what you do it doesn’t feel like work. That’s why it is easy for me to provide exemplary customer service and ensure that I am available to my clients when needed. Real estate is not a Monday through Friday, 8am-5pm job. It’s 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, including Holidays. I work hard for my clients and love every minute of it. In addition, my previous background of over nine years in the Solar Industry gives me an edge over all other real estate agents. Solar is a huge benefit for a home and needs to be marketed to potential buyers, so they can understand the value solar offers, whether leased or owned. With my knowledge and expertise in this area I know what disclaimers and processes must be followed to allow the successful transfer of solar leases as well as show the benefits to potential buyers. When you sell a solar home, you need to sell both the home as well as the solar system in order to get value added. My passion for solar as well as real estate makes me a natural fit if you are looking to buy or sell a solar home. Who you choose to work with in the sale or purchase of a home makes a huge difference in your overall experience. If you want to work with someone who is passionate, dedicated, straightforward, honest, and will get the job done please reach out to me today!

Trusted agent to do a professional and personal job

There are not enough words to describe how Tara came into our lives and helped us sell our home. Being honest and respectful was such a blessing for us after our previous agent. From day one we developed a trust that will never change. Recommending Tara to do a great job would be an honor. Anyone who is selling their home needs to look no further than Tara. Our appreciation for will last forever!!

Tara's guidance, market knowledge & expertise guided the smooth sale of my house.

Tara's guidance, market knowledge & expertise guided the smooth sale of my house.

Tara's friendly nature, professionalism, real estate knowledge and expertise made my house selling experience, an easy "journey" to manage. She and her team are excellent, prompt communicators, and always very helpful. I had a situation one early Saturday evening, when I could not respond to a broken web link of a potential buyer walk through appointment, for the next day. I hesitated to contact Tara because of the time of the evening. She responded within minutes, to correct the issue. If you select Tara as your agent, you will work together as a calibrated team. From the day I contacted her to discuss the potential and prospects of selling my house, to the initial listing price and to the final selling price, we were always in perfect alignment to achieving my selling price goals. There were times during my house selling period, where I just didn't think the house was going sell. Tara was always there to give me positive reinforcement and keep my spirits lifted. I highly recommend Tara's services. I believe she expertly manages the selling or buying of a house experience during any phase of the real estate market (ie. buyers market, seller market, stagnant market).

The Gold Standard for Real Estate Professionals!

The Gold Standard for Real Estate Professionals!

Selling a home can be stressful, but Tara made the entire process smooth, professional, and successful from start to finish. From our very first interaction, Tara demonstrated an exceptional level of dedication, expertise, and genuine care that far exceeded my expectations. She was consistently proactive in her communication, keeping me informed every step of the way and ensuring I always understood the status of the transaction, upcoming milestones, and any actions required on my part. What truly sets Tara apart is that she treats her clients' homes as if they were her own. As an international client handling most aspects of the transaction remotely, I needed a realtor I could trust completely. Tara stepped into that role flawlessly. She took a personal interest in ensuring every detail was handled properly, regularly kept an eye on the home, proactively identified and addressed issues before they became problems, and provided updates that gave me tremendous peace of mind. Tara's professionalism during negotiations was outstanding. She provided thoughtful guidance, sound advice, and strategic insight while always remaining honest, transparent, and focused on achieving the best outcome for me. Equally impressive was the level of service provided by Tara and her team. Every interaction was courteous, prompt, friendly, and professional. Questions were answered quickly, concerns were addressed immediately, and I always felt like a valued client rather than just another transaction. I can confidently say that Tara is one of the best real estate professionals I have ever worked with. If you are looking for a realtor who is knowledgeable, responsive, trustworthy, and genuinely invested in her clients' success, I would recommend Tara without hesitation.
