Review for Member: Tamra Provines
ZillowVERIFIEDTamra was always extremely responsive in setting up showings and helping us find what we were looking for in a home. As first-time homebuyers, she walked us through the process every step of the way and answered all our questions. She was patient as we took time to find a house that was the right fit for us while providing numerous options in and around the area we were wanting to locate in. Once we found the home, her guidance led us to securing the winning bid for our house and the best outcome possible. Throughout the closing process and even after Tamra has looked out for us and made sure we have everything taken care of. She also had great recommendations of companies for all of our house and loan needs.

ZillowVERIFIEDOne of the best real estate decisions Ive ever made was hiring Tamra Provines, OWN Real Estate, to list my property in Wichita. I interviewed several realtors/brokers and researched dozens more. To say I'm picky would be a bit of an understatement. However, once you hire a realtor, you are entrusting them hundreds of thousands of dollars in property if not more. To not be picky about your realtor is to be truly foolish. Tamra Provines owns and operates her own independent brokerage, Own Real Estate, and is therefore not representing some bloated real estate corporation who has their hand in everybodys pocket, particularly the buyers and sellers. She has developed a wonderful website and uses all the tools of the real estate trade including social media and the tried and true aEURoeold schoolaEUR? methods. Different buyers are attracted by different stimuli based upon age and technical savvy. She uses them all to bring as many buyers to the table as possible. Its exactly what a realtor should do and what a seller needs. I also truly appreciate her listing agreement is not 30 pages long, but more like 4 pages. It is clear, comprehensive, and fair to both parties. How often do you encounter that type of unabashed honestly and forthrightness in todays business world. It is like a breath of fresh air. Tamra Provines has additional character attributes that make her an asset as your realtor. Shes honest. She will tell you if something needs to be fixed, changed, or not worth the money to modify. Shes highly intelligent. She knows the market, she knows the neighborhoods, she does the research, and she definitely knows what buyers and sellers want. Her intellectual acumen will serve you well when negotiating and making decisions about listing or buying a home. When going into negotiations she comes armed with all the facts, employs reason, and can make a very decidedly persuasive case for her client. Shes charming. A definite asset when dealing with the buyers, sellers, lenders, appraisers, and other realtors. Never confuse smooth talk with charm or intelligence. The person who parlays charm and intelligence in a business deal constantly hits the mark, while the other fumbles and blusters. Most realtors can dish out the smooth talk like a well-seasoned used car salesman. Thats not what you want when selling or investing in property worth so much money. Choose a realtor with integrity, brains, and charm who is truly committed to representing you as the buyer or seller. You couldnt ask to have a better person than Tamra Provines on your side. I highly recommend Tamra Provines as your next realtor. Susanna Amend

ZillowVERIFIEDTamra did an outstanding job helping us sell our home on time in a challenging environment. We had made an offer on a home in Maine and needed to sell our home in Clearwater, KS to finalize the transaction in Maine. Tamra did an excellent job of getting our home listed in a timely manner with outstanding photographs and a property description that was very enticing. She garnered a tremendous amount of interest in our property despite stubbornly high interest rates. Once we received offers, she guided us through the process of working with the strongest potential buyer. Finally, days before closing, she helped us navigate a legal matter with the title company so we could close on time. Thanks to Tamra, we are now living our dream in Maine! If you want an experienced agent who will go to bat for you, look no further than Tamra. She is worth every penny of her commission.

ZillowVERIFIEDTamra was so incredibly helpful working with us through buying our first home. We knew if we had any questions she could help answer them, and she was always very quick to respond to everything. We didn't stress during the process AT ALL because of how confident she made us feel in having backup throughout! Definitely recommend and will work with her again!

ZillowVERIFIEDTamra was so wonderful and helpful during our home buying process! As first time home buyers, she helped guide us through a lot of things and was always there for us when we had questions or needed help. Tamra has a tremendous amount of knowledge about the market and houses in general. She also offers great advice. Furthermore, she?s friendly, communicative, always on top of things, and honest. We greatly appreciated how quickly she did things and how often she communicated with us. Tamra always had our best interest in mind! We ran into some issues with the seller and Tamra was quick to advocate and negotiate on our behalf. Our home buying process was a little stressful because of a difficult seller, but Tamra handled things really well and we got everything we asked for in the end. Thanks so much Tamra! We?ll definitely reach out if we?re looking to buy or sell in the future!

ZillowVERIFIEDTamra was very responsive and provided everything needed to make the process go well. I highly recommend her. She always provided helpful information. When I was aggressively looking, she lined up houses to view quickly and when I was out of town, she kept looking and maintained a good level of contact.

ZillowVERIFIEDTamra was a rockstar with us. We werent the best at articulating what we were looking for in a home. She was able to weed through all of our comments and help us focus on what actually mattered to us. We ended up with a fantastic home because of her network. On top of that she was able to get our home sold in 6 hours for a much higher price than we expected. Her ability to filter bad news until there was a resolution was also helpful for our busy lives. Im going on and on, but thats a testament to how much we valued her and have recommended her to our families.

ZillowVERIFIEDTamra was awesome to work with and didn?t hesitate to help us look far and wide for a new home. She was extremely helpful to us as first time homebuyers trying to navigate through a tricky market. When the time comes we plan to work with her again, and I?d highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy/sell.

ZillowVERIFIEDWorking with Tamra was a Great experience from meeting her to closing on our home. She is very knowledgeable and once we told her a few things we were looking for in a house she started sending us listings. We bought during a very busy market and her knowledge of knowing what houses generally go for kept us from overspending. We feel she was honest with us and taught us a lot about the process as we went. I would recommend Tamra to anyone looking for a realtor as well as the great lender she brought on board and made the whole house buying process an easy one.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe could not have had a better realtor. Tamra was kind, knowledgeable, and always available. She took time to learn what we liked and what our family needed. She explained the home buying process and answered all our questions. Houses were selling so fast we didn?t have time to get to town and see them, so Tamra would do video tours for us. There?s no one else I would?ve trusted to do this. She got us our dream house. During the closing process, she stayed on top of our mortgage company, who wasn?t doing things as quickly as they should?ve been. Tamra is the reason we got the loan when we were supposed to. We cannot recommend Tamra enough!!

ZillowVERIFIEDTamra is INCREDIBLY passionate about helping her clients through the tedious and time consuming task of buying and selling their homes. She is unbelievably patient, knowledgeable, and honest which are three things that are key to a good real estate professional. Tamra is unbelievably dedicated to what her clients want and need, and wont stop until she finds a way to get it. She is also incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. If you are ever in need of an incredible real estate professional to help with buying or selling a home, you definitely need to give Tamra a call. You will not be disappointed!!!

ZillowVERIFIEDAs first time homebuyers, Tamra truly helped us navigate the home buying experience. She was quick to explain the unknowns, assist in weighing the pros/cons, and more then willing to think through room redesigns. Tamara advocated for us repeatedly and was quick to follow up with friendly reminders of items that needed to be done on our end. Buying a home is a journey with many highs and a few lows, Tamara navigated all of these variables with wisdom, grace, and a fun spirit. If you?re in the market to find a home, Tamra will help you find ?the one?, just like she helped us find ours!!

ZillowVERIFIEDMy husband and I could not thank Tamra Provines enough for her amazing and professional help support throughout the course of us looking for a home in Wichita. Our family were living in London, UK, and when COVID hit, we decided to move to Wichita to be closer to family, better support, schooling etc. It was June 2020 when we reached out to the Carnahan Group after seeing a house on Zillow - Tamra responded within 24 hours and it all started from there. In the course of 7 months, Tamra was our rock in finding the right home for us as well as being truly supportive, helpful and genuinely caring. She did at least several different virtual tours of homes for us all around Wichita (all videos were at length with her commentary/feedback), enabling us to narrow down our home choices and finally settle on the house we loved. My in laws had the pleasure to meet her as she would do second/third visits with them on the same properties. She was always quick to provide updates and news on what was happening with the other party, allowing us to trust her 100% and know that she was taking care of us. She was always patient and not at all salesy (which, as estate agents goes, Im not used to!). Finally, she was just a huge support for our family, appreciating and understanding that it was a big international move for us (myself particularly) and was always empathetic with how our moving situation was going. I simply can not find a single fault in how she carried out her work and we thank her immensely for everything she has done to make the house purchase go as smooth as it did, considering we were in the middle of a pandemic. She has always gone above and beyond what I feel her job entails and the fact that shes just genuinely a lovely person is what helped make the experience so worthwhile. Were so thankful we had Tamra be part of our personal journey of 2020! Should we need help again I would have no hesitation but to reach out to her. Thank you again Tamra! The Carvalho family

ZillowVERIFIEDTamra exceeded any and all expectations I had about buying a house virtually, and in a state I have never even been to! She went above and beyond in making sure all our questions were answered and concerns addressed. Additionally, went out of her way with showing us things she thought we may have not noticed (kind of hard when you arent there physically!) We definitely got exactly what we wanted and if it werent for her tireless effort, we would have settled for sure. I was so skeptical doing this virtually, but she really made the process easy, less stressful and actually fun. ?? Professional yet, very personable. You wont want anyone else.

ZillowVERIFIEDTamra takes a different approach to real estate that I certainly appreciate - she goes above and beyond to shoot for quality over quantity, making it perfectly clear with her actions and intent that the paycheck is secondary to making customer experience the best and maximize the value for the client. Cant say enough amazing things about Tamra, certainly a master in her field, and an expert at just being a wonderful human being that is easy to make friends with. On top of all that, no doubt an easy referral decision for any of my contacts real estate needs - send yourself and referrals to her and youll thank yourself for doing so.

ZillowVERIFIEDI recently bought my first house and my mom referred me to Tamra as she was intending on using her too to sell her house. I was unsure of how this whole house buying process went as this was my first time doing it and I was worried about finding the right realtor. So I decided to meet with Tamra. I was nervous and my mom told me, Just meet her. And if you dont like her then you can always go with someone else! But the moment I met Tamra I knew she was the one! She was really nice, professional, listened to my wants and needs and asked questions like she was actually interested. My sister, an old neighbor and friend were also in the process of buying a house the same time I was and they just told me nothing but horror stories from their realtor! But I had nothing but good things to say about Tamra! She responded quickly to my texts, answered my calls right away, and when I put in my first offer I kept asking her how it worked and what if this happens? ... or what happens now? ... or can you explain the closing cost part again? And she was more than willing to keep explaining until I got it. She never pressured me to buy anything, she was always positive about me finding the right house and was very available if I needed her to look at a house asap. I realize this is how any good realtor should be, but I know a few people that actually had a rude, unprofessional realtor. I recently recommended Tamra to my sister and I will do so to anyone else that is looking for a house. Tamra was a fun realtor to work with, I am glad my mom found her and recommended. It was a great pleasure to work with her and Im glad she made my first house buying experience fun and not a disaster. 10/10 recommend for sure ??

ZillowVERIFIEDAs a first time buyer, jumping in to the home buying process was a little intimidating at first, but Tamra helped so much every step of the way and made the process easy to understand. She explained every step thoroughly, and when the time came close to closing, she fought for what was best for me as the buyer. For these reasons and many more, I 100% recommend working with Tamra!

ZillowVERIFIEDTamra was wonderful. She showed us many, many houses in a three day span on my house hunting trip. She knew the area and the market. She was a real trooper and worked right up to the birth of her child. We were reassigned to another agent for the offer negotiation part, inspections, and closing. We wished we had Tamra, who is organized, tech savvy, and prudent. Even though she was on maternity leave, she came to the closing meeting and wished us well. I will definitely recommend her

Review for Member: Tamra Provines
ZillowVERIFIEDBefore using Tamra we had looked at homes with a couple other realtors in the area, and to be honest, I felt like they were out for our money and cared very little about how well the home fit our needs. Tamra NEVER made me feel like that. We walked into numerous homes that I nit-picked to death... but I had to live there for the next 30+ years of my life and I wanted it to be funtional for us we well as practical. Tamra never made me feel bad for saying what I didnt like about the home, and she warned us upfront if we were wanting to look at a home that she knew we wouldnt like. The home we wound up purchasing was one Tamra picked for us to see! I didnt even want to look at it from the online pictures! Now we absolutely love our home. Tamra takes the time to get to know what YOU want and she LISTENS to your concerns. Tamra will take the time to get to know you, what you like and dislike, and will do everything in her power to be there for you 24/7. I cant even tell you how many evenings I had to text her past 5pm and she responded ready as ever to help! She even showed us homes way into the evening hours so my fiance wouldnt have to miss work. If you want someone that cares, use Tamra. If you want someone who will tell you the TRUTH, use Tamra. If you want someone who will be there for you anytime, use Tamra. If you have a brain.. USE TAMRA! :) (P.S.--She even bought us a wreath and had it hanging on the door with a welcome note or when we walking into our new home as home owners for the first time! :) ) THANK YOU to Tamra for finding us an awesome home with a nice price, in a nice neighborhood, and for being awesome. :)
