The Right Real Estate Agent

People don't talk about it a lot. But finding the right real estate agent can be the difference between a pleasant, stress-free home buying or selling experience, and a not so pleasant one. Here are a few things to consider:

First, you'll need an agent ready and able to make a full-time commitment to you. . I can and will do that. I am available to my clients 7 days a week by email or phone and I return all calls within a 24 hour period. 

Second, you'll want an agent with the experience needed to know the local neighborhoods, schools & market conditions. Who better than a native? Experience, knowledge & results are keys aspects of my business. My customers have the unique advantage of working with an agent that not only knows the area & current market values extensively but also, understands their needs whether buying, selling or relocating.  Let's face it experience matters and I have experience, years of it . Whether purchasing as an investment, 1031 exchange, primary residence or listing your home for sale I have a proven track record of success and know what it takes to get the job done in today's market.

Third  You'll want an agent you are comfortable with, one who listens and understands your needs, lifestyle, and the qualities in a home that are most important to you. I listen carefully to the needs and wants of my customers. I personally tailor your home search to be exactly what you tell me you are looking for so no time is wasted looking at properties that don't meet your criteria.

Fourth, you'll want an agent who embraces the convenience of technology without losing the personal touch. You'll love the resources available on my website and the customized e-mail property updates that I send, but these will never replace the time I spend with you face to face , I will be there to assist you from contract through closing . 

 Finally, You''ll want an agent that goes above and beyond what's expected of them & I am that agent . Nearly 95% of my business is generated from referrals of satisfied past customers and word of mouth but don't take my word for it... take theirs (see client testimonials link) I am dedicated to providing one of a kind customer service because it's your satisfaction that remains my number one priority.

I relocated to St. Augustine from Ormond Beach, Florida and Tara was recommended to me by a friend. I was a first time home buyer and Tara helped me through every step of the process. She was wonderful to work with and truly went above and beyond what was expected of her. She even spent hours with me at the home studio picking out design options for my new home . I will and have recommended her to many.

We first used Tara as our realtor to purchase an investment property based on the recommendation of a friend . She was wonderful and so helpful in all aspects of purchasing our condo. We then used her to sell a property and later to purchase our primary residence after relocating from South Carolina. In all three transactions she was very professional and efficient. We had no worries because she handled EVERYTHING for us. Tara is very personable and is a pleasure to work with she truly knows how to make a home buying experience enjoyable.
