Tell Us Your Story

Selling my home was a huge transition, both logistically and emotionally, and I’m so grateful that I had Tara guiding me through every step.

She was incredibly professional, knowledgeable about the changing market, and always calm and reassuring — even when things got stressful. Tara handled every detail with care, from staging and timing the listing to navigating offers and coordinating the final steps leading up to closing. I always felt informed and supported, and she went above and beyond to make sure everything stayed on track. What stood out most was Tara’s genuine empathy and communication — she truly understood how personal this process was for me and made it feel manageable from start to finish. I can honestly say I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would highly recommend Tara to anyone seeking a realtor who combines expertise, professionalism, and genuine care.

Sylvia Couvertier

We saw Tara's ad and signed up with her last September.

Although we had some familiarity with the area, it took time to learn the local market and Tara was very responsive in showing us houses that might be of interest. It was a tough market for buyers, but she helped us understand what was needed to secure a house that we would enjoying living in. After two unsuccessful bids, we jumped on the third house which we have just moved into and which we like very much. She continues to help us with transitional matters and recommendations on local service providers. We are happy to have worked with her and consider her a friend. Rich and Pam Berger

One of the things that really set Tara apart was how hands-on and supportive she was throughout the entire process.

Her dedication, problem-solving skills, and personal support made all the difference. Thanks to her persistence and expertise, we got the deal done. We are incredibly grateful and would recommend her to anyone looking for a real estate agent who truly goes above and beyond. Tara, thank you again SO MUCH!

I was impressed with her knowledge of the area, and her ability to tell me exactly what to expect from the time the house was listed to the time the sale contract was closed. She was a huge asset all along the way, through the many months I spent cleaning out the estate, to finally selling my family's childhood home. I highly recommend her expertise and experience to prospective sellers and buyers. She really knows her market, and gets everything done efficiently and effectively!

Melissa Wartman

As I am an agent also and have worked along side and opposed to a variety of different agents, I’ve found that there are a few that stand out from the crowd.

Tara is one of those stand-outs. Her clients give unanimously stellar reviews, but the difference is that agents do too. Not only does tara alleviate purchase stress for her clients but also for the agents she works with. She goes above professional courtesy and she’s reliable. Tara is the agents’ agent. Call me for any real estate needs. But if you don’t call me, call Tara.

It was a pleasure working with Mindy as our real estate agent in our journey of downsizing once our kids left for college.

Mindy was able to find a beautiful, spacious townhouse for us not far from our old neighborhood & friends. She was able to get us in to see some prospective properties the very 1st day on the market, & was always willing to take us back to the properties for repeated looks with our children. In addition, Mindy worked very well with our real estate attorneys. We would highly recommend Mindy as a real estate agent!

Neophytos Z

Cindy has been a real guardian angel for our home purchase.

We were the first time homebuyers and had absolutely no idea about any of the process. Cindy explained every single step with enormous details from the very beginning until the end when we moved into the house and even explained how to take care of a home. Especially in this crazy unpredictable market at the moment, Cindy has been so patient with showing homes and put together many offers for us not to mention answering our endless questions patiently with details including great suggestions on how to bid on the houses. Finally, we got the house that we loved just because Cindy came up with strategy to tweak our offer last minute so that we win the bidding war to get the house. We can’t thank her enough to bear with us for 4 months in this journey. Even her recommended mortgage company , home inspector, attorney everybody was super efficient and our process went so smoothly. Lastly, she made us speechless with the very first housewarming gift we received when we closed on the house😊! Thanks a lot, Cindy for being available for us like a friend day and night and even during your vacation time!

Tara is an exceptional woman!

Her knowledge of real estate and all its accompanying details is remarkable. She works diligently for her clients with uncompromising energy, listening to their needs. Though I am not currently in the market to buy or sell, I would most assuredly call on Tara when that time comes. I couldn't recommend Tara more.

Linda Reda

Cindy is the absolute consummate professional.

When we first met she already had materials needed for my town inspection before we could put it on the market. Her comps were spot on and her attention to detail is noteworthy. I highly recommend using her services. She’s is a true master of her craft

Kevin Farrell

Tara is wonderful and very professional.

Donna Stahl

Although I haven't purchased a home with Tara yet, I have worked professionally with her for many years.

Tara is a hard working, honest, trustworthy Realtor who goes out of her way for each client. With her knowledge of the industry and area, Tara would be my first choice for selling my home.

Mike Lang

Mindy was simply the best Realtor my wife and I had the pleasure of working with.

She looked everywhere to find us the perfect home and answered every question my wife and I had being first time home buyers not understanding the process. She worked around my hectic schedule traveling through Sussex county and Warren county driving sometimes hours to find the right house. Simply put Mindy is an expert in her craft and such a nice person there is no other person I will work with when I am buying a property.

Wayde Beasley

Tara was absolutely phenomenal!

As an attorney who dedicates a large portion of my practice to real estate closings, I know how important the right agent can be. Tara was the right choice. She came to our home to learn about all its features, taking pictures for her own benefit as she moved from room to room and outside in our yard and gardens. She then came back with her home evaluation and marketing strategy which she presented in an honest, professional, and straightforward manner. She allowed us time to think about it, never pressuring us to sign a listing agreement. Even so, she encouraged us to contact her professional stager which we did. The stager was very knowledgeable about home selling trends and helped us showcase the home. Once we signed the listing agreement, Tara was on the go! She did everything she promised in her marketing presentation, and we received an offer at asking price within less than a month! Tara made sure we closed on time, often having to take on tasks that would fall to the buyer’s agent. WHAT MAKES TARA SHINE (aside from her friendly demeanor and smile)? Everything she did which was EXTRA: 1. She came to the house and sat there waiting for the town inspector and then for a plumber when we were out of town and had nobody to help us; 2. She helped us pack and move stuff out of the house when we were out of time (and brought us lunch – she even befriended my mom!); 3. She babysat our dog on the day of closing because we had to travel early that day and his regular sitter wasn’t back until later (she even had our dog, Gus, be an honorary staff member at her office that day). I knew Tara professionally before my closing. Now, I consider her my friend.

Adriana Baudry

Positive Responsiveness, Professionalism

Working with Kathy Reidinger, to sell our home, was a great experience.

She made the whole process feel a lot less stressful than we expected. From getting the house ready to listing and closing, she was on top of everything. Her communication was excellent and we always knew what was going on and what to expect next. She’s incredibly dedicated and really puts in the time and effort for her clients. We’re so happy with how everything turned out and would definitely recommend her. Selling a home, after 30 years, can be overwhelming, but she made it feel easy. We’re really grateful for everything she did and would highly recommend her.
