Partnering with Tara- Finding Success in a Challenging Market

Partnering with Tara- Finding Success in a Challenging Market

From our first meeting, we knew we had made the right choice in partnering with Tara for the sale of our vacation home. Her excellent knowledge of the local market was readily evident. We could sense her pro-active "can do" attitude and professionalism from the start and she demontrated it in spades during our partnership. While we listed our property in what turned out to be a challenging market, Tara's positive and creative approach never made us doubt that we would reach a succesful end. Throughout the process, Tara was consistently communicating with us, responding quicly to all our questions and handling all the details of conducting a sale for us, out-of-State sellers. If you are considering buying or selling a property in Goodyear and the surrounding area, do not hesitate to contact Tara. We highly recommend her.

Tara makes buying a home easy!

Tara makes the home buying process easy. She is thorough, thoughtful, professional and follows through on everything she says! She’s a “getter done type of gal!” She doesn’t miss anything. Very grateful for everything she did in helping purchase our home. I would hire her to buy or sale a house any day! Nobody does what she does!!! She’s a SUPERSTAR of the Arizona real estate industry.

Tara worked tirelessly to sell our property in ( what I consider) record time in a very down market. She took care of all aspects of the sale including the home inspection items, to the point that we didn’t have to worry or even think about the process or details of the sale. Great experience, the process was flawless and everything went very smoothly. Very much appreciate all Tara did for us.

Outstanding Real Estate Professional -Highly Recommend !

Outstanding Real Estate Professional -Highly Recommend !

Tara Rutkowski is the best real estate professional in the state of Arizona. And it’s easy to see why; she gets results, regardless of market conditions. Tara helped me to sell my home, during what has arguably been the worst real estate market in the past 30 years. It was a difficult period of time that Tara made much more bearable, by carrying the weight of the burden of constantly and accurately assessing the changing market conditions, and making logical, data driven recommendations to stay competitive. But there is much more to Tara than just her expertise with real estate operations. Tara genuinely cares about her clients, not [just because] they’re clients. She was there before and after the buyer commitment, to help with the final touches and corrections necessary to close the sale. Tara is well organized, energetic and focused to stay the course and get the job done from beginning to closure. The real estate market took many unexpected and disappointing turns this last year. But through all of this, Tara was my personal cheerleader and constant optimist with a smile, when I became discouraged as potential buyers fizzled out, or I cleaned and prepared to show condition each time, only to be ghosted by buyers or agents. But she also takes no BS from anyone wanting to take advantage of technical delay opportunities that inevitably occur during the bumpy sale-to-closing process. I highly recommend Tara, whether you are shopping or selling. She is one of three top three professionals out of many, that I have known and conducted business with over the past 40 years. I’m so happy that I chose Tara (from the crowded field of real estate agents promising quick results) to represent me and handle the sale of my home. If you are in the market now or considering future real estate transactions, I highly recommend calling and talking with Tara first, before moving forward with your plans. You will not be disappointed! FIVE STARS *****

Excellent experience

We were looking for a property in the Goodyear area. After we had narrowed our search down to a few properties, we contacted Tara. She was able to provide us with a honest assessment of each site. She communicated her ideas, advantages and disadvantages of each. When we narrowed our search to the property we eventually purchased Tara represented our interests well. I believe that we were able to get a better value for our investment by having Tara represent us. Tara has a good understanding of the area and has been able to suggest tradesmen.

5 STAR WITHOUT A DOUBT

If you look up COMMUNICATION in the dictionary you should see a picture of Tara. She went above and beyond through the entire process. Her wealth of knowledge on the local market was tremendous as well as her long list of outstanding contractors. We'd ask - do you know any good HVAC people ... ya I got a guy. What about outdoor lighting ... ya I got a guy. How about carpet peeps... not a problem. Literally she had a dozen people that we used and they all were fantastic. We would not hesitate to use Tara in buying or selling again. She is AWESOME!

Hardworking Agent Who Gets Results

Tara was an extraordinary resource throughout our home-selling process. She provided excellent recommendations, guidance, and advice throughout the entire process. She took charge and engaged a short list of reputable vendors—from drywall to roofing to electrical—who helped us prepare our home quickly and effectively. Thanks to her expertise in prepping and staging, our house went on MLS on a Thursday and was under contract by the following Tuesday. Tara works tirelessly for her clients and truly goes above and beyond to ensure the best outcome.
