“Timmie was by far the best part of our home buying experience. I honestly don't know how we could've gotten through it without her! She was knowledgeable, approachable, friendly, and always professional. She provided helpful and sound advice on market trends and was always honest with us when we asked (many) questions. It was because of her and her honesty that we were confident in our investment. She always put our minds at ease and made the entire process seamless.

"I would highly recommend Timmie. She helped us buy a house that was for sale by the owner. Transactions like these can often be complicated because there is not a professional on the other side, but Timmie worked tirelessly to ensure that we got our dream home. She was a strong advocate for us during the home inspection process and negotiated a very fair price for our house. We are so lucky to hav… Read Moree had Timmie represent us.

"Timmie was amazing to work with. We really appreciated her insight and communication during the process. Especially since we received multiple offers. We felt that she was working for our best interest throughout the whole process. If you want a Realtor® who has excellent communication and understands the market, look no further. Highly recommend Timmie Taff!"

"Timmie Taff is a great seller's agent and I highly recommend her. She was the second agent I hired to try to sell my house and the contrast between her and my prior agent was like night and day. She is responsive, knows how to set appropriate expectations and sale prices, does her homework regarding comps and market conditions, is honest, realistic, communicative, and an advocate for you as a sell… Read Moreer. She has all the qualities you want in an agent, is clearly experienced, and was also great with giving me referrals for services I needed to get my home ready for showing. Timmie was recommended to me by a colleague who I trust very much, and I couldn't have made a better choice. With Timmie, my home had more than one offer (within the first 30 days of being on the market) and I was able to close less than 90 days after listing. Lastly, the home selling experience is a difficult one; with showings, feedback from potential buyers, waiting for offers, inspections, and appraisals, it can be draining. Timmie demonstrated a lot of emotional intelligence and empathy throughout the process. It was very easy and also comforting to work with her. If you're going to sell your home in Baltimore and want an agent who knows what she's doing, is responsive and is committed to you, go with Timmie Taff." Read Less

"As an agent in NJ , I’ve recommended Laura in

"We sold two houses and bought one during the past year; Shari was our realtor for all three transactions. An experienced realtor, Shari is very knowledgeable about what it takes to sell and to buy a home. She carefully guided us through each transaction with patience and a huge amount of her time, answering all of our questions along the way. For our two sales, she led us through the maze of prepp… Read Moreing and listing a property, evaluating offers and ensuring that we were ready for settlement. As anyone buying a property these days knows, finding a house, preparing an offer and getting it accepted is a grind. Shari listened to us, recommended homes that were right for us and made certain that our offers were reasonable and complete. Shari's vast experience helping clients sell and buy homes in central Maryland has other benefits: she knows houses and this area so well that she will provide answers to questions you didn't even know to ask about your new home and your new home town."

"There are so many amazing things I can say about my experience with Mindy. A great friend of mine, referred Mindy about a year ago. From the first call I knew it was a great pairing.

Must have been the huge smile on my face 😊, but whatever it was she looked at me and said this is the one! And indeed it was! What I loved the most about my entire experience I could tell she cared and was determined. She would not let me give up on the process when I started to feel a bit hopeless in finding the right home. We toured so many great properties but I wanted that home feeling. She was kind and patient throughout and I am certainly grateful for the relationship we built.
Mindy is super knowledgeable and doesn’t mind sharing what she knows to make you feel comfortable throughout this entire process. She even throws in some interior decorating tips to help you bring the space to life even more. I couldn’t have asked for a better realtor she was truly a Godsend and I’d recommend Mindy a thousand times over. She’s been simply amazing." Read Less
