"Carly did an exceptional job selling our home. My wife and I interviewed six agents before selecting Carly. She rose to the top because of the plan that she offered to sell our home within our timeline, at top value, and she did just that. Her knowledge of the market and the expert market analysis that she performed allowed us to competitively price our home. As a matter of fact, we sold it for $3K over list price. Moreover, her marketing plan resulted in a contract in less than a week. So, would I hire her again. Absolutely!"

"Tara, thank you for your services. You went above and beyond, always positive and proactive in guiding us—from the new home purchase and downsizing considerations to the moving process, assessing interest in our house for sale, and advising on the best ways to feature it. Then, you walked us through sizeable renovations of nearly everything! Whew! We are so happy to have reached this day and really appreciate how you've been upbeat and practical every step of the way. I also appreciate the love you share while doing such a great job as a realtor."

"Carly assisted us with buying our first home back in 2020 in Indianapolis in the beautiful Geist area. Two years later, when we decided to move states, we immediately contacted her with our concerns and questions. Right then, she began to map out a plan that fit our timeline and even got us in contact with a fabulous realtor in Florida. Because of her relationships and connections, she was able to make our transition as smooth as possible. She was on top of getting our house the best photos and on the market within a timely manner. She got the right people in for our open house and made sure to use her social media presence as a way to connect to home buyers. Not only do we love Carly as our realtor but also also as a close friend. If we ever need help in moving or finding the best people to contact, Carly is our go to! She’s trustworthy, dependable, and a joy to work with. She truly puts her clients first. If you have any hesitation in finding your person, stop right here. She’s it! Thank you!"

"Carly is a realtor you can trust. Very down to earth, honest answers. She’s someone who will always have your best interest at heart, sets a high standard for herself and other realtors in the industry, and her passion for real estate shows through her kindness and joy. She gave me amazing advice from afar while I was dealing with a realtor in Missouri. I had some questions and concerns about the realtor I was working with. She was a great consultant and helped me find another realtor that had their head in the game and helped me sell my house!"

"I have moved many, many times. I have dealt with lots of realtors. In fact, I was a realtor for 18 years and am now retired. Carly's professionalism and superior customer service has warranted my taking the time to write this feedback. Never did I feel uncomfortable or left without all the information I needed. Carly had all the answers before I asked! It's the public's call, but if you are seeking a top-notch, above the call of duty realtor, give her a call. You will not be disappointed."
