Meet Tara

I am committed to offering the highest possible standards of professional service. I first started in Real Estate in 1990. I have seen & and experienced firsthand the many changes Real Estate has had over the years. I have customized systems to fit your needs and I assure you that your property is broadly marketed to get the most exposure in order to obtain the highest and best outcome.  I am with my clients 100% from the very beginning to the end of the transaction & beyond that remain as a resource and stay connected with Newsletters and market updates and news. My goal in representing Buyers and Sellers is to offer you the best possible guidance and understanding of the market and home quality so that you can make an educated decision. I work diligently, patiently, and persistently and to the maximum of my ability to help you create a win-win situation for all. This is my Promise!

History

I love the Northwest & how beautiful it is! I was born and raised here, and I am a true Seattleite born & raised in Seattle and Edmonds.  There is something about the clean fresh air & breath-taking nature, that keeps me here year after year! Prior to real estate, I worked for Nordstrom for 17 years in marketing, management, and sales. Customer service & naturally wanting to help others is a gift but also a skill you nurture. Real estate for me was the next step. I wanted to be able to give back more to the community and my clients. I am a Managing Broker; I have earned an Accredited Buyers Representation (ABR)and Certified Negotiation Specialist designations (CNE). I’m also a member of Seattle King Association County (SKCAR) and the National Association of Realtors member (NAR) member.  I continue to add more education yearly to assure the latest quality & knowledge base. Customer service and satisfaction is my number one priority, which has grown and led me to long-term business relationships & long-term friendships.

Client Focused, Service Driven

Whether it's your first home or fourth, I am a client-serviced agent, I specialize in working with new buyers or experienced buyers & sellers, I love working with seniors and the extra ways I can help make their lives easier in transition with whatever their needs may be at this time in their life.  I pride myself in a familiarity with most of the areas, my favorites being Green Lake, Ballard, Phinney, Ravenna, Wallingford, Maple Leaf, Queen Anne, Magnolia, Eastlake, West Seattle, and a lot of smaller & larger areas in between and into Snohomish County. Depending on the area my client is most interested in, I can help them focus on what is most important to them.

Real Estate & people & being of service to others in Real Estate has been a lifelong passion & I really enjoy passing my expertise along to others so that the homeowner’s dream can come true.
