    Tara McGuire helped us sell our house. She and her staff guided us through the entire process. This was especially helpful in the make-ready phase, where her experience was invaluable figuring out what was worth doing and what wasn't. She had contractor recommendations and made all the arrangements with them. This saved us so much time. Thanks Tara!

    Tara McGuire went above and beyond to get our house sold. A She provided education when we didn't understand and was knowledgeable of the current market and current pricing in the neighborhood. A She helped us find a designer to help get our house ready to sell and she set expectations when we first met with her. A She stayed in touch with us on a regular basis. A We could not have asked for a better Relator!! A We are grateful!

    We worked with Tara to find our dream home and also sell our current one. We had just broken up with our last realtor so I had a bad taste in my mouth and I was pleasantly surprised when we met Tara. She was a breath of fresh air, incredibly professional and well organized. She did a great job of listening to our needs and using her large network to connect with other realtors to get us a head start on any potential house we may have liked. EVERY house we went to look at, we saw pre-market thanks to Tara's connections and that was a big advantage in today's competitive market. Once we purchased our new house, we went to work on selling our existing one. Tara had a great playbook we followed to get the house show ready using all of her recommended resources that made the process pretty painless. Tara did a great job of pricing our house just right and we ended up getting 3 offers, all well above asking price! Tara is a top agent in Austin and I highly recommend working with her!

    Tara McGuire is a true Austin real estate expert. She is timely, knowledgable, helpful and friendly. We accepted an offer on my Circle C house in only four days after she listed it. She was organized and kept the process moving at our agreed upon pace. We closed without any issues or hiccups. I attribute all of that success to Tara and her amazing team.

    We had a rental house that we decided to sell and we needed help making the smartest updates we could that would get a return. Tara has great ideas and also closely collaborates with a stager (which she included). Thanks to Tara we made wise choices like updating the light fixtures without wasting money on something like a whole new floor (not needed in our case). Furthermore, Tara is very transparent. We got an inspection report ourselves first so that we would know the condition of the house, could share it with potential buyers, and take care of what needed to be taken care of. She also asked us to list improvements we had made and the cost. I thought that was very fair and helped people to understand our price point. She also did a thorough job of researching the comps ahead of time explaining both why our house might be more valuable than the comp (greenbelt) or less valuable (one less bathroom), etc. Our house sold before we even put it on the MLS (people saw the sign), and over asking. It was about as low stress as you can get and again I really appreciated the transparency. Highly recommend.
