Tara provided continuous updates and advice to help us make decisions. She staged the house and added extra touches during open houses. We truly appreciated her effort and continous communication. We had only been in our home for two years after moving from out of the area. The previous relator (not Tara) wasn't invested or supportive. We felt like another transaction and an inconvenience. We were hesitant to go through the process again but the home wasn't working for our family. After meeting Tara at an open house, we decided to ask questions and consider selling. From our first meeting to the last, the experience was completely different. She was very positive, supportive and present. Tara made it possible for us to find and purchase our dream home. We realized what top notch service was and would highly recommend her.”
