Tatum & Donnie Gardner

Tatum is an ABSOLUTE rockstar realtor. I can't recommend her enough. We saw 9 houses in one day with her and found our perfect home. She got us in before the open house, helped us submit a strong offer, and even cut her own commission by one percent to make our number work when a bidding war looked likely. She handled everything. Found us inspectors, managed the option period, and even arranged for a couch to be delivered before closing so we wouldn't have to stress about it. After we moved in, when we discovered the heater was broken on move-in day, Tatum fought for us with the sellers and got it fixed. She also secured their warranty for ongoing issues, got us money back post-closing, and went way above and beyond when we had a sewage pipe problem under the sidewalk. She reached out to the mayor of Little Elm and the City of Carrollton water department to get it resolved. Tatum doesn't just help you buy a house, she sticks with you through every single thing that comes up. She's phenomenal, caring, and truly goes over the top for her clients. If you're looking for a realtor who treats you like family and makes sure you get what you deserve, Tatum is it. Thank you, Tatum!

Working with Tatum was an amazing experience. She walked us through each step of the process and earnestly wanted to help us find the perfect home. Even with a competitive market and my wife and I being first-time home buyers - Tatum championed us through the process and made sure we were happy.

She represented us well, worked with us when we had issues and made sure we were taking steps that would help us find the best home for us. We would absolutely recommend her to friends or family moving to DFW or to anyone looking for a compassionate and talented guide through buying a home in DFW.

Tatum was absolutely phenomenal. We could not have asked for more in our agent. When our original plans to buy a home fell through, she helped us find a temporary rental without charge (even videoing multiple homes for us to pick long distance). When we were ready to purchase, she was supportive and knowledgeable throughout. She took us to multiple homes, guided us through the process as first time buyers, negotiated tirelessly on our behalf, and answered our questions day and night (and on the weekends too). We would recommend her to anyone looking for a stress free home buying experience.

Tatum could not have made our home buying experience any easier. In a market that is/was literally changing daily, we were worried about potentially getting lost in the weeds. Tatum was patient, diligent, and amazingly communicative. Going above and beyond would be understating the process she follows. If there was an open showing for a property we were even remotely curious about, without question she would be there with a video walkthrough, sacrificing her time to save ours. She showcased an unending effort to uncover any detail, hidden cost, fix, or potential repair necessary. She would involve trusted specialists to give insight on areas we needed guidance on, like plumbing, foundation, roofing, etc. I don't think there's an "industry standard" when it comes to home realty, but Tatum set a bar so high, we couldn't possibly recommend anyone else to our friends and family.

Tatum contacted me right away when we were put in touch with one another and worked tirelessly, night and day - sometimes even when I was not available to talk, to get my bid in! And it was accepted - the very first offer I ever made on a house. Tatum was my rock through the entire first-time buying process! Comparable prices in the area were provided by her and her husband very quickly. This gave me confidence in my offer and the price. She assured me that everything would be okay and I would not have to more forward unless I was comfortable with all the detail and the paperwork. What Tatum was not familiar with in the area, she quickly found out.
She hired the most meticulous inspector, which made all the difference! His report was detailed and clear and really made me feel good about my decision.
Ultimately, I will keep in touch with and leverage Tatum's services when I find that next house and I just have to have! I will refer all my friends, acquaintances, and family alike.
