It is without reservation that we recommend Tara Cassery for  your real estate  transaction. Tara is a knowledgeable, motivated, empathetic and results-driven agent who goes above and beyond as both a listing and buyers agent.
Prior to our meeting, our house had been on and off the market for 2 years. We were   feeling very frustrated and deflated. We  had hired two other brokers and met with     countless others and everyone was scratching their heads as to why our house was not selling. We were in a very desirable neighborhood, priced correctly with countless updates. Our house was described as “mint condition.”

As we headed into our third year of listing our house we knew we could not afford to make any mistakes. Having the house on the market for so long was taking an emotional toll our whole family.

Our criteria for a broker was as follows:

We wanted an agent who would actively market and sell our house—not someone who would simply put our listing on MLS and wait for showing requests.

An agent who would take charge, drive and manage the process of getting our house sold quickly. We were not interested in hiring an agent that was afraid to hurt our feelings or tell us what we wanted to hear.

We had already invested a lot of money in updated solely to sell the house. Any additional recommendations on financial investment had to make sense with the end-goal in mind.

We identified Tara as a potential candidate because she had secured a high volume of    listings in our town and her houses were selling quickly. We watched the listings daily.

It was clear even from our first meeting with Tara that she was going to be the agent that would sell our house. Tara has a very clear, smart and high-impact plan to stage our house with minimal investment on our part. We came away from our meeting with a renewed positive attitude. We just could not believe how she transformed our house from average modestly decorated colonial to such a warm, inviting and beautiful home.Her vision translated into immediate results. We sold our house in less than a week with multiple offers. We received our asking price.

We also worked with Tara as a buyer’s agent. After we had sold, there was very limited inventory and we ended up moving into short-term housing. Tara has a good uderstanding of what we were looking for in a new home. She proactively called other brokers, sent mailings and actively searched for a house. Ultimately, she found us our dream home and it wasn’t even listed!

We could not be happier with our experience with Tara.

I am a self-admitted perfectionist with, sometimes, unrealistic expectations. I tend to like to feel like I have complete control over a situation and struggle to hand over the reigns. Given that I have no experience with real estate and had never sold a house before, it was time to bring in an expert. I interviewed three or four different     realtors, but from the first time Tara Cassery walked through my door, my decision was easy.

Tara not only exceeded my expectations, she knocked them out of the park! There are a lot of words that can describe Tara—professional, dependable, organized, compassionate, smart, business-savvy, assertive, sweet, creative, knowledgeable, confident, beautiful (in and out!)...the list goes on. The word that I think best describes Tara is tenacious.

Just about any realtor can put a sign in front of a house, place a couple of strategic ads and holds an open house or two. Tara does all the right things to get a house sold. From the initial (professional) photos, to the staging and the marketing, she is a step ahead of       anyone else. She will go beyond the extra miles to make her clients happy. On top of it all, she has amazing sales skills. When she has the opportunity to meet with a potential buyer and take them through your home, you would think she was trying to sell her own home. She goes through every detail of the home, not letting the buyer  miss any of the best     assets. Even for those not-so-appealing assets, she can spin them in a way to make just about any buyer want what you have.

Now to the tenacity. Tara will get feedback from every realtor and every buyer who walks through your home. She will go back again and again, if necessary, until she can provide you with an answer. Her personal style is extremely persuasive; she has the highest ethics and most importantly, will bring you the right buyer for your home. Within about three weeks, we had three viable offers, two of whom went “back to the drawing board” to bring their best offers. We got more money for our house than we thought possible in a downward spiraling market, which, bottom line is really the most important thing.

I hadn’t met Tara before I put my house on the market. Today, I consider her a true friend. If I didn’t give you a good enough prospective here, I would be thrilled to talk to you more about Tara.
