About Thomas

My love for real estate goes back to 1990 when I graduated from Nazareth College. The idea of being a REALTOR was very appealing to me but it would be put on hold as I pursued other opportunities. I have had the benefit and pleasure of working for a very small, family owned company as well as large international firms. Both provided me with powerful and diverse professional experience, confidence and success that would serve as the perfect preparation for my life in real estate. My philosophy as a REALTOR is consistent with how I served in other capacities. I adhere to the highest professional and ethical standards, believe regular and candid communication with clients is of paramount importance and insist on a superior level of service from me to my clients and industry associates. As a fourth generation family in Cazenovia, we have always believed in serving our community in every way possible. Most importantly this way of life is good for my hometown and those who call Cazenovia their home. It is also extremely beneficial to me professionally because it allows me to offer unmatched expertise on the community, its businesses, environmental and recreational resources as well as its way of life. If you are going to buy or sell a home here you need to select a real estate professional that is an expert on all things Cazenovia and Central New York. I am honored to serve and have served the following boards and organizations: Cazenovia Lake Association Board of Directors (present) Cazenovia Public Library Board of Directors (present) Village of Cazenovia Tree Commission, Founder and Director (present) Village of Cazenovia Trustee (2007-2009, Present) Cazenovia Preservation Foundation Community Appreciation Award (2009) and Board Member Cazenovia Fire Department Chief (2005-2007), Firefighter of the Year (2003) Madison County Firefighter of the Year (1999) Madison County Fire Chief’s Association President (2007-2008) Town of Cazenovia Planning Board (1995-2004) Cazenovia Area Planning Project Executive Member (1998-2001) Cazenovia Area Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors (1998-2006) Chairman’s Award (2000) Cazenovia Rotary Club President and Board of Directors (1996-2000) Paul Harris Fellow (1999) Cazenovia Civic Club President and Board of Directors (1993-2010)

Tom is great

Tom was excellent. Very knowledgeable and pleasant to work with. He is forthcoming, open, and realistic. He is very patient and works well with clients. Always very accessible, communicates well, and answers any questions and issue promptly. I enjoyed having him as my agent and I think we got a good and fair price for the house. Strongly recommend Tom.

"Goes Above and Beyond" Agent

We met Tom in late Feb 2024 to select him as our buyers' agent since we were looking for a home in NYS after retiring. In our first meeting, Tom listened intently to what we were looking for in a new home. Since we were living in Indiana, Tom surveyed potential listings and conducted Facetime video visits with us for homes we were interested in. Even though the market inventory was tight and houses were selling in days, Tom kept our spirits up with his sense of humor and optimism. We always felt confident in his judgment and market assessment of the properties we were interested in exploring. After several visits for in person home tours and a failed bid on one home, Tom kept engaging us on a weekly basis on homes that fit our criteria. On a whim, he took us to a home that fit most of our criteria. It turned out to be the perfect house for us based on our lifestyle considerations. He quickly submitted an offer that competed with other ongoing bids and negotiated a price and closing date that met our needs. Tom was always looking out for us throughout the negotiation phase until closing. Closing was smooth and uneventful (less than 15 minutes) due to Tom's strong organizational skills. After we closed on our NYS property, we still needed to sell our home in Indiana. Tom always reached out to check in on us and provide guidance on how to get our home sold in Indiana, even though he would not benefit from it. His advice on pricing and staging was valuable to us and we were grateful to have him to consult with, since our agent in Indiana was not attentive or focused. Based on Tom's advice we were able to sell and close on our home in Indiana in less than a month. What really impressed us about Tom was his dedication to our needs, his honesty and deep knowledge of the central NY market. His actions throughout clearly demonstrate that Tom deeply cares about his clients, actively listens, and provides fantastic advice.

Incredible Agent!

Tom was an outstanding realtor! From the first meeting with him, his knowledge, expertise (and sense of humor!) put us at ease. He made the daunting task of selling our beloved home and finding our forever home as seamless as possible. Tom was always accessible when we needed him, went above and beyond at times and always did so with a smile. We appreciate Tom so much and highly recommend him to anyone looking for an agent. Thanks, Tom!!!

Dedicated Realtor

Tom did a great job in representing my property and, more importantly, my interests. He did his best to keep the transaction rolling with the out-of-state buyers as well as kept me informed throughout the whole and sometimes trying process. I was very happy with the sale and would highly recommend him to any home seller.

Personal attention every step of the way

Tom is extremely knowledgable about the local real estate market and helped us to set an appropriate price for our home. He provided invaluable assistance, clarifying the process for marketing our home and ensuring that we understood and were prepared for each procedure from the initial listing through showings and bid evaluation. His professionalism and personal guidance helped us navigate a complex and stressful process quite smoothly. We recommend Tom highly to anyone looking for an agent who will be with them and advise them every step of the way.

A Realtor Who Truly Cares About His Clients

I cannot recommend Tom Tait highly enough. Throughout our entire home buying experience, Tom demonstrated an exceptional level of thoroughness and expertise. From the very beginning, Tom took the time to understand our needs and preferences, ensuring that every property he showed us was a potential fit for our family. His knowledge of the market was evident, and his advice was invaluable in guiding us through the decision-making process. What truly sets Tom apart is his unwavering commitment to his clients. He consistently went above and beyond to look out for our best interests, negotiating on our behalf and ensuring that we were making informed decisions every step of the way. Tom's attention to detail was remarkable, and his thoroughness ensured that no aspect of the home buying process was overlooked. He was always available to answer our questions and address any concerns we had, making the entire experience smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend Tom to anyone in search of a dedicated and knowledgeable real estate agent. Working with him was a pleasure, and we are incredibly grateful for his help in finding our perfect home.
