Tara was very responsive any time I contacted her with questions.
We love working with Tara! She helped us sell and buy homes in 2016 and again in 2024. We’re honored to be a part of the “four door” club. When working with a realtor, I’m really looking for someone to guide us in the process, address our questions and concerns, and recommend options for next steps. That’s exactly what Tara provides! If you need an agent to buy or sell a home, look no further.
Tara was great at keeping me informed throughout the process. She was very supportive, and responded quickly when. I had questions.

Tara is amazing. She was a calm, positive voice in a stressful sale and negotiated proactively on our behalf. I will recommend her to anyone I know who plans to sell or buy a home.
Tara was fantastic. I was selling an estate property where I had not lived, and she provided lots of tips regarding what I should and shouldn't do to get the home ready for market. She saved me quite a bit of money. I was glad I chose her. And she will be the realtor who helps me purchase my next home.

I did not feel like she was supporting me or had my best interests in mind. She talked me into listing my property lower than it's estimated value. Her comments were always negative. She just wanted a quick sell.

Trying to buy a house remotely and within a short time frame presented challenges. Tara was patient, accommodating, helpful and really fought hard for things that mattered to me. Even after closing on the house, Tara kept working on issues that came up before the closing that weren't resolved and saw them through all the way.

Tara is a pleasure to work with, I feel her advice has been spot on and trust her ability to look out for our best interests. All three of our transactions have gone smoothly and we really appreciate the way she works with us. I have already recommended her and Redfin and will continue to do so. Thank you

Tara/staff is awesome, without her this sale wouldn't have happened. BTW house was sold in 6 hours (no typo!), I never even have a single open house, it was sold in hours. For me, it was dream as things happened so fast. Redfin team is amazing and their website/app Dashboard kept me up to date where we were in this sale process.
Tara kept me in the loop the entire time while selling my home- even when it wasn't great news! She helped brainstorm ideas, provided support and was extremely knowledgable. Great experience overall!

Our first experience with Redfin was fantastic. Tara was an absolute professional and provided all our needed information to list our house competitively. When bids were coming in, she made sure all offers were promptly delivered and explained. When we accepted an offer, she continued to work through a backup offer. We have moved a lot over the years and this was our best experience yet. Besides our realtor Tara, we received the professional support of her Redfin team. The photographs and 3D presentation were outstanding, the sign was precisely on time and all checklist items were handled promptly. We are very happy with our selling experience.

Tara is incredibly responsive, calm, and professional to work with--we cannot recommend her highly enough. There were a few hiccups on our end as we neared the finish line and she took them in stride and guided us through to a successful close on our new dream home. She always gives us her honest opinions and is willing to work with us to make sure we are comfortable with every step of the process. Tara makes everything so easy and it was a pleasure to work with her again.

Despite the current state challenges in the economy and market, Tara was able to make this selling process painless and smooth. It's wild to even consider that we were able to sell our home and get everything taken care of after spending only 30-45 minutes over the phone with Tara and never having to even meet face to face. Tara was always responsive, and considering the flood of buyers in the market, I know there was a lot of work that happened behind the curtains to make this seamless. Thank you Tara and Redfin team!

She's the best! This was our second home purchase with her, and we're now planning on selling with her too. She's very responsive and knows the market super well. I have recommended her to friends and family. Also - I highly recommend going with Redfin over a more traditional real estate company. It was always easy to get showings scheduled when we were looking for a home to buy, and because Tara wasn't personally showing us every home (there are other employees that do more of the showings), she was more available when we needed to talk about the important stuff (because she wasn't off with some other client doing endless showings).
Customer did not leave review comments.
Tara is amazing! She listened to me and allowed us to list our home at a price that other realtors felt was unrealistic. We ended up selling our home for 20K more than what the other realtors recommended. Tara made the process simple and stress free! We will definitely be calling her when we are ready to sell our other home. Thank you Tara!

Tara was responsive to questions and issues. Can't beat the fact that we got full service for 3.5% total in realtor commission. Most everything after signing up was done by email, so some people may prefer more face to face interaction. Email worked fine for us.
There were a few times when we were lacking a little bit of an update, but they may not have been as long as we thought, and just more of the anxiousness of trying to sell quickly and move across the country.
Overall would recommend Tara for her friendliness, professionalism and just being a good realtor.
Super responsive, knowledgable, and understanding. There are a number of stressful days that come up during the selling phase of your home, Tara was always right there to talk us down off the ledge, and calmly walk us through our options.

I was initially a little apprehensive about using Redfin in lieu of a “full-service” realtor. I didn’t see a lot of listings at my price point ($700,000) and this gave me some concern. But my house was in excellent condition and we were hitting the market at the optimal time (June), so I just couldn’t rationalize paying an additional 1.5 to 2.00%. Tara and her team did an excellent job. The photos and fly-thru video were top notch, in fact, better than many I have seen on the internet. There were no hiccups once we accepted an offer. Tara and her team always promptly responded to my text messages or emails (that’s a big deal for me). My only complaint, albeit a very minor one, was that the associate that came out for our one and only open house arrived only 5 minutes prior to the start... Show More

Our closing process was right down to the wire and we have since found ~20K of unforseen costs that Tara could have helped us avoid. As first time home buyers I was relying on Tara for better guidance and forethought. I also found that every negotiation point it felt like I was the only person concerned for maintaining my budget. For her level of experience, I expected a more attentive realtor with my interests more kept at the forefront.

Tara helped us develop an offer 10% over listing and guided us through giving up all of our protected rights to present the cleanest offer possible to the seller.
We later learned that another offer had a very similar price so it was the terms that made the difference and we fully believe that our bid would not have been accepted without Tara's guidance.
She also did a lot to make the seller comfortable with our financial situation and our ability to cover the down payment before our house sold.

Tara is incredible! We live in Miami and bought a house in Portland, so as you can imagine it was very difficult to buy a house without even seeing it. Tara helped tremendously, she FaceTime us from every house we wanted to see and was very helpful in assessing the house. She also recommended a mortgage broker and an inspector which helped a lot. Bottom line without Tara we will not have a hose now! She is awesome!

Tara's deft planning in this current hot market helped me with a back-up offer on a property that had locked me out of a same-day offer. I was able to move into the #1 position and close on the property after the original buyer's financing fell through. (Not recommended for the majority, but certainly worked here). Thank you Tara!

Tara was our rock through an extremely trying process. Her experience, knowledge, and positive attitude kept us on track when many processes, outside of our control, worked against us. We can't recommend her highly enough.
Tara is a nice and hard working lady of great distinction. She worked very hard for our this case, sometimes worked to midnight. She often explains the buying processes and details in advance, not like some brokers who work like that customers are supposed to be as knowledgable as a professional broker. When asking for her opinion, she frankly shows her true idea just like your sister. Compared with some seasoned principle brokers who only say positive things, I appreciate Tara's honesty. Highly recommend Tara.

Tara went above and beyond the call of duty when it came to helping us find our dream home! Even though she only showed us the first home we ever viewed with Redfin, she coordinated every other house we wanted to see with other agents (I'm betting it was close to 30 homes) and it always felt like she was by our side each step of the way.
During the final stages of purchasing our new home, she was there for every walk thru and helped us point out what we should ask for from our builder w/ repairs, and always asked questions about the new home we didn't even think of to ask the builder. We couldn't be more pleased and thankful for all of her help! Thank you Tara!

Although Tara was very cordial and professional, she lacked the warm personal connection with me that I needed to feel comfortable with to undergo the largest purchase of my life. I ended up meeting Kristin Paul who was by far the best of the best. She was extremely professional, mindfully aware of my needs, patient, thorough and more than willfully went over and beyond any requirements that any agent/broker ever has to provide as a service to their client. My ultimate purchase was painless!!! RedFin is a great service that I used heavily during my research and final purchase of my home. I don't know how I would have managed my real estate purchase without it. Much appreciated Redfin.

My husband and I had a great experience working with Tara!

She was so responsive to all our questions and concerns and finding out the answers in a timely manner (she almost always picked up her phone when we called and on the couple occasions when she couldn't she got right back to us). We also felt that she really thought about us, our family and our needs when it came to advising us and how to move forward with nogotiating with the sellers. Tara was alway punctual and... Show More

Tara sorted out a sticky condo issue. Thanks.
Tara and her associates were extremely helpful to me, making what would otherwise be a fairly stressful process relatively painless. She was always quick to answer questions and procure information, and made me feel at ease even when we hit some figurative speedbumps with looking at certain properties. I'd recommend her and her team in a heartbeat, and would seek them out once more should I ever need to buy a new home again.

I don't care for pushy, rude agents.

There were some challenges along the way with the seller and Tara guided and supported us the whole way through. We couldn't have done it without her! She is highly recommend!!
Tara was amazing! She went above and beyond for us. When it came down to the right house (in a tough market) we knew 100% we were getting the best and most attention for Tara. We knew if there was any possibility of us getting the house, it was with Tara's lead. We would highly recommend her to anyone!

We love Tara and her team! Through the home search process, she was always happy to tour a home for us, and when she was unable, we had Marc (who is great too!). We saw several homes prior to finding "the one." The home we chose was a short sale, and she helped us with the negotiation process. There were 3 other offers, and we had put in our offer below asking price, so we got nervous and asked if we should up our offer. She told us we had a strong offer, and so we waited...and got the home! Then we waited. Once the bank approved our loan officer, Tracie, got to work. During the week of closing, we started to get the run around from the selling bank. To make a long story short, Tara, Amy at First American Title, and Tracie did an AMAZING job of helping us secure our home! It was a... Show More

Tara and the Redfin team were very helpful in our home shopping experience. We saw >50 homes, probably closer to 100, in the course of our search, and there was never any pressure to close a deal, and we were glad we could take the time to find the right home.

Tara was great helping us close the house. She was prompt, stayed on top throughout the process and was on our side throughout the deal.
Great job Tara!
Professional and quick to respond. Is open to showing many homes and does not try to sell you on a house.

Working with Tara was like working with a good friend. While always prompt and professional, she was warm and honest, and someone we trusted to help us find our home. During the buying process, Tara and her team were extremely helpful; they, along with the online services with Redfin, guided me through closing, making things clear and as painless as possible. Thank you Tara!

We were first-time home buyers with difficult sellers but Tara was very patient with us and tried her best to help us. Her opinions on the houses we toured were unbiased. Would recommend her to anyone.

False imformation regarding how commissions work, stating that they don't work on commission. However after prodding further, redfin agents do in fact work on commission, 3% in fact. She agreed that she was misleading on that. When I asked her to research some info regarding the house/ neighborhood, we were looking at she said that was my job. She didn't seem to want to really dig her claws in and work, taking ownership and getting as much info about a risky purchase we were considering making.

Agent Response:
I'm sorry that your experience with Redfin didn't meet your expectations. To clarify the statement regarding pay, as an agent with Redfin, I do not receive a commission. Agents at Redfin are paid a salary, and earn an additional bonus for every transaction based on the customer's satisfaction; at the end of every transaction, we send a survey that asks how likely that customer is to recommend Redfin on a scale of 0-10. During the home buying process, we strive to provide all information available directly to our buyers, and to include available records and disclosures provided by the seller. I'm sorry that you feel you did not receive adequate information, but know that your feedback is valuable and will be something that I'll remember during every interaction moving forward.Tara was wonderful! She was patient with us and always polite, pleasant and professional. She explained the process and was very good at her craft. We got to know Tara well over 4 months, and we would like to think of her as a friend.

Tara was great! She was responsive, helpful, and a great resource. She didn't pressure us along the way and instead helped us work through some wrinkles along the way. Plus, she is supported by a fantastic Redfin team, which made it easy to schedule inspections and get the deal closed.

We were very lucky to work with Tara Cowlthorp. I would highly recommend her to everyone. Me and my wife are officially first time buyers and were guided the whole way through this crazy process of searching for ideal house with such care, patience and professionalism. We were also very pleased with step by step process of finalizing our loan and scheduling all the inspections and help we needed.
We would recommend Tara who wants to have pleasant experience on buying house. Thank you Tara for all your help and time dedicated to help us find out perfect house.
We had a great experience with Tara. She was quick to schedule tours and when asked, she offered her opinion on homes. She never pressured us and allowed us to move at our own pace during our house hunt. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an agent.

Tara was very knowledgeable, personable and efficient. She gave us her cell phone number and was available by text message for urgent communication. She clearly has a lot of experience in real estate, as she was able to provide a lot of critical guidance and assistance when it came to home selection.
