Tara McGuire
Carmen and I worked with Tara McGuire as a seller agent for the last 3 months. In all, we have had the pleasure of Ms. McGuire as our agent and can't think of a better, more qualified real state agent to work with on residential homes.
Ms. McGuire demonstrated her commitment, strong professional business background and mutual respect attitude from start to end of this real state experience.
We had Tara McGuire previously assist us with buying our first house and could not have had a better experience. So of course 3 years later when we wanted to sell it and buy another house for our growing family we reached out to her again. She helped us through the stressful and unusual obstacles during these times and was there by our side to help and support us. She was able to use her experience, expertise and personal touch to sell our house and get us in our new home. Needless to say if you need a realtor you should go with Tara.
This was our second time working with Tara McGuire - this time buying and selling. We were really nervous to buy and sell during the pandemic but Tara made the experience fun and honestly feel very normal. Tara was so professional and used all Covid safety protocols to ensure our family was safe. I have to give kudos to Tara's negotiating skills as this is the second house we have bought in a multiple offer situation and both times we have come out on top. Tara does a great job being available and guiding you through any questions you may have to make you feel extremely informed and secure in your purchase. Looking forward to working with Tara again in the future!
Tara McGuire has been an amazing Realtor for me! I really can't say enough good things. She worked with me to sell my house and buy another one. First of all - selling. I could tell from our initial meeting that she has all of her ducks in a row and thinks of everything. She has a ton of experience and she has a great team who help to support her success. She also is in the loop with contacts for other vendors (home improvement, financial related, etc.) that ended up being important with getting the house ready and actually crucial during the option period for the buyers (an impartial foundation assessment company). I was really impressed with the stager I had access to, and the professional photos of my house were fantastic (both no additional cost for me). Now, buying. I've had some twists and turns on my wish list and buying process but Tara has been patient with me and seems to have endless energy with marathon house tour days. I toured some open houses on my own as well, and one of the agents hosting an open house knows Tara and couldn't say enough good things about her, which reassured me even more than I already knew I made a great choice. One thing that struck me is that she said Tara has a lot of great systems and processes in place and I totally see that. Now we are under contact for our new house, which we are really excited about, and will close this week! I loved that she is taking care of everything for me - she even scheduled the inspection and told me to show up at the end. One thing that I really noticed is that she knows what to say and when. For example, she recommended we go out of town the weekend we listed the house for sale. She gave me a couple interim updates and told me when I got my first offer (plus I had access to the system that records the visits) but basically didn't worry me about anything until we got all the offers in (7!) and presented which one was best and why it was best. On the other hand, when I was buying, she kept me in the loop with every action - she submitted the offer, the other agent acknowledged, how any negotiations were going, etc. There's no doubt Tara is a great choice!
During our house hunting journey, we were absolutely BLESSED to have Tara guiding us. From day one, Tara has been awesome. Tara has consistently been professional, prompt in her communication, attentive to our needs, and very caring. She also is extremely understanding of the stress of home buying and has been so understanding of mine and my husband's quirks. Tara always did her best to make sure we felt supported and was always honest with us. We completely trust Tara because she consistently proved she knew what she was talking about. Furthermore, the fact that she is so familiar with remodeling processes and costs, helped us better assess the many homes we saw. As to your question about what Tara did especially well; there were so many things. She absolutely always made the time to show us a house we expressed interest in....she never said "oh no, I can't show you that house"--she never let us down. She is just a very kind, compassionate, and generous person. She always made us feel that she had our back and our best interest at heart. This is such a vulnerable process and she always supported us. There is nothing she could have done better.
Overall, the sales transaction of our home was very good. The only stress I felt was from the title company which was absolutely not Tara's fault in any way. The title company agent was really not great and that was just our luck as that company was selected by the seller. Tara really made the buying process great.
My family is very grateful to Tara. We are living in our dream home and we are so happy!
My husband and I had an excellent experience working with Tara McGuire on both selling our home and buying a new home. We were impressed with how extremely knowledgeable Tara is about the market. She knew exactly how to price our home and, like she predicted, we had multiple above asking offers within a few days. She also provide very helpful suggestions on how to prepare and stage our home that we are certain made all the difference. She was very communicative and kept us apprised every step of the way. We highly recommend Tara!
We just sold our house. We received six offers over our listing price in the first five days of listing. Our home sold for the highest price ever on our block. There is only reason that we were able to do that and that is “Tara McGuire” at Bramlett Realty. Tara is the most amazing person. She is so knowledgeable, so detailed, and ever so professional. Tara was with us every step of the way! If we had a question or concern she got back to us immediately. We recommend Tara a thousand percent. She not only maximized the sales price of our home, but she was also an absolute joy to work with. Rich & Karen Phillips Circle C Ranch Austin, TX
Tara was great to work with. To be honest, the entire team was really on top of things and Tara made the whole process seamless. It really felt like a whole team was supporting us and let us focus on other things outside of the immediacy of selling the house. The transaction was great. Tara made good recommendations on the areas to focus on where to concede. Tara was great about being very upfront in regards to her expertise when we were unsure of certain things but would still make it clear the decision was ours. She was really helpful in helping us weigh out the decisions we made and the potential outcomes from those choices.
All in all, it was a really solid experience and an upgrade from our previous realtor. I will happily use Bramlett again.
We were in Austin in December 2020 for home leave from my assignment overseas, and had been planning to buy our retirement home in the summer of 2021 and just look around in the week before Christmas. I reached out to Bramlett - having had a very good experience working with them in the summer of 2016 (Tara McGuire was out agent then) to buy our first house (also in Austin). Our agent, Craig McGuire, did thorough research that he shared with us, and advised us - without pressuring us - to consider buying then, given that what we wanted would be well beyond our price point by the summer because of the conditions in the Austin market for the foreseeable future. Observing all the correct COVID-19 protocols, he showed us houses that fit what we were looking for, and once we saw one that we really wanted, gave us the advice needed to help us to win a bidding contest without breaking the bank. This was really important, as after putting in our bid we had to leave Austin and do everything at a distance. Craig was key to making that possible. He found us a good mortgage company that qualified us quickly and, thanks to all his efforts and consistent support, we were able to close in a little over a month - in the time of COVID, doing everything very long-distance, and in a crazy Austin housing market. We're very happy with our home purchase, and with Craig!
Tara McGuire at Bramlett is great! She is incredibly knowledgeable, responsive and got us well over our asking. We would highly recommend her!
My husband and I worked with Tara McGuire to find our first home in Austin. We couldn't recommend her enough! She is so knowledgeable of all the areas in Southwest Austin and her connections with other realtors in the area helped us find our home in this crazy market. If you're looking for a great agent, we highly recommend Tara!
Tara McGuire represented us in purchasing our home. To say she was amazing would be an understatement: Tara walked us through every step of the process (this was our first purchase), and provided detailed answers to every question we had, no matter how simple or complex. She helped save money where we could, pointed out things we wouldn't have otherwise noticed, and was extremely pleasant to work with.
I MUST shout to the world that this is the BEST REAL ESTATE company to ever go through. I thought that selling my house would be stressful but Bailey Moran from Bramlett Residential made it literally SO easy that I never had to lift a finger or even think about what the next step was. The entire crew Bailey, Felix, Stephen, Brianna (especially Bailey Moran!!!!), were constantly there for ANYTHING that I needed, which includes questions, concerns, information, etc. Anytime that I had a question, I literally got a response in less than an hour no matter what time of day or night with a full amount of information. Everyone on the team was so kind to explain the entire process to me (I had no idea how the process went or what I was doing but they ensured I knew EVERYTHING). I would receive "heads up" emails about what was going to happen within the next upcoming days and weeks. DocuSign and Notarize online were very helpful apps that we used and I got everything done from when I was overseas and far away. When I sold my house, I got the full amount the very same closing day within minutes. I could not have ever found a better company, these guys EXCEEDED my expectations to the max. Thank you so much Bailey Moran!!! You are truly the BEST
It was so easy and great to work with Tara McGuire. She was helpful from the moment we began looking into the sale of our home with her incredible knowledge of the market. She was bullish on pricing, but not unrealistic and we got well over asking. We couldn't be happier!
I worked with Lauren Yoder to get the coolest condo in town and I couldn't have asked for a better guiding light in buying my first home. She was not only professional, but down to Earth and effortless to work with. Lauren has a great attitude and was very patient with me in navigating this crazy market. She was confident in her abilities and always upfront about what I was getting myself into. Not once did I feel like she was pushing me in any one direction, which made the decision making process feel like I was in control.
Lauren has found homes for several of my close friends and makes it a point to establish a real connection with people she works with. It felt like I was working with an old friend that I could trust right away. I'm happy to say that I not only acquired a new home, but also a new friendship.
My husband and I have bought and sold several houses and Lauren Yoder at Bramlett is, BY FAR, the best realtor we have ever used. She knows the Austin market and she is responsive and communicative with a sense of urgency that is much needed in this market. She went way beyond a typical realtor's duties: she recommended vendors for several projects and sent pictures to them to get estimates for us, she checked on the property for us several times before closing and worked around our schedules as we were buying in Austin but we live in Houston. If you are buying or selling in Austin, use Lauren and Bramlett!
We just closed on our house yesterday withTara McGuire as our agent the most professional, knowledgeable and definitely was a smooth process.
With all of the possibilities of other agents and companies this was hands down the best experience.
Y'all won't be disappointed.
We had a wonderful experience with Eric Bramlett. Tara McGuire was our realtor for the sale of our house in Austin. She did a fantastic job communicating all the steps needed to get the house ready for showings and open house. She has a team of people working for her so every step was well organized and communicated to us. She set up a home stager, handy man, window washer, and cleaner for us. We could always reach Tara even when she was away on vacation! She was always available for questions via text, email or phone. We highly recommend Tara McGuire at Eric Bramlett Real Estate to sell your home!!
I sold my home with Tara McGuire and she was fantastic. She walked us through the process in a very professional way and answered all of our questions. She really understood the market and helped us sell above asking price within a few days of listing. Her team was very responsive throughout the process and i would highly recommend working with her.
Tara McGuire with Bramlett Real Estate took care of all the details AND took care of us as we made the emotional decision to sell our house during a pandemic. She was understanding AND efficient. Their expertise and contacts in the industry really showed. We are very happy we worked with her and her team at Bramlett
