“Tamara is not only an incredible realtor but such a kind person! She was amazing to work with and would recommend her to EVERYONE! She is knowledgeable, meticulous, and advocates for her clients. As first time homebuyers, we were never uncertain or uneasy throughout our home buying process because we knew Tamara was there for us!” — Austin S.


“I had the pleasure of working with Tamara through the process of buying and selling two homes, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Tamara made the process smooth and stress-free (as stress-free as purchasing/buying can be anyway). She truly cares about her clients and takes the time to understand what they are looking for and what will make them happy. It’s not about a ‘house’…it’s about a ‘home’. I highly recommend Tamara to anyone looking to buy or sell!” – Buyer and Seller in Crescent, PA


“Tamara Groden is a truly exceptional Realtor that I will enthusiastically recommend to anyone buying or selling a house. While shepherding me through a fixer-upper home purchase, Tamara treated me like her only client, providing invaluable guidance and seemingly tireless dedication. Tamara always ensured I was well informed leading up to the purchase and went to bat for me when complications arose. Even two months after closing she continues to prove her dedication to her client, leveraging experience and industry connections to favorably resolve an issue that escaped multiple levels of inspection. Truly exceptional.”  — Seller in East Pittsburgh, PA


“Tamara was indispensable for the sale of our home. I had never sold a home and she was able to answer all my questions and make the process incredibly easy. She consistently went above and beyond all expectations, assisting me in selling the house while I was out of state. She was quick and clear in all communications, and gave me solid, pragmatic advice about what updates we should and shouldn’t make to the home to maximize selling price. It was obvious how well Tamara knows the Pittsburgh-area market, and she was spot on in every recommendation she made. Ultimately, she sold the house quickly, for more than I expected, with zero hassle.” – Seller, Pittsburgh, PA


“WOW! Words cannot describe how fantastic Tamara made my first time home buying experience!! She is more than professional, she is very personable, knowledgeable in the real estate market, and extremely thorough with EVERYTHING! I didn’t even know where to begin and she was awesome guiding me through every step. If you’re looking for a reliable and honest realtor, I definitely recommend T!” – First Time Homebuyer,  Tarentum, PA


“I had a great experience. I recommend Tamara for anyone looking for a realtor. She helped me find my first home matching all of my requirements! The process was smooth and she helped me with all of my questions along the way. She is highly knowledgeable and knows the area well.” – Buyer, Allison Park, PA


“A SUPERSTAR REAL ESTATE AGENT!! DO NOT SELECT ANYONE ELSE IN THE PITTSBURGH AREA EXCEPT TAMARA GRODEN!! SHE SHOULD BE YOUR #1 CHOICE! Tamara Groden was our buyer agent for the purchase our home in AUG 2019. Being a military family, we first began this process on a 100% long distance relationship and Tamara couldn’t have been more accommodating. Tamara will make leaps and bounds to solidify the entire home buying process for you! Being from a rural area, we are not use to Pittsburgh’s “city feel” of neighborhoods or homes. I can tell you, we must have looked at over 50 homes, with very specific needs and wants. We were looking for a diamond in a hay stack; A home with acreage, an amazing school zone and not too far from amenities. Mrs. Groden could not have been more cooperative, pleasant, helping, and thoughtful! She drove us all around week after week, with at least 10 homes being 100% virtual prospecting, including bids on 2 homes we never even looked at other than through a computer video chat. Tamara even offered to watch our four children while we looked at homes so we would not be distracted and could actually focus on the home buying process when we were in the area. When looking for an agent, to not pass by Mrs. Tamara Groden! Tamara we apologize for not writing the review earlier, but honestly thank you so much for helping us. Very Respectively, The Tillman Family”  – Buyer in Sewickley, PA


“Tamara is wonderful! She has helped us buy two homes for our growing family. She gets things done and gets to know her clients. She helped us find exactly what we were looking for twice. She is also knowledgeable about the city as well as suburbs. I highly recommend her as a realtor!” – Buyer in Allison Park, PA


“Tamara was a delight to work with. She helped us in any way and every way she could and has continued to be of assistance in many ways, even after our purchase.” – Buyer in North Oakland, Pittsburgh, PA


“We had a wonderful experience with Tamara as out realtor. She helped us to sell our home and buy our forever home. She handled every detail perfectly and was amazing to work with! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a hard working and knowledgeable realtor.” – Buyer and Seller, Canonsburg, PA


“Tamara is the best. She is extremely attentive and helpful. While other agents just told me to look on Zillow myself she actually helped us find a house and made the purchase go extremely smoothly. Highly recommended.” — Buyer in Pittsburgh, PA


“Tamara was fantastic to work with! She was prompt and responsive to all of our needs and she made sure everything was taken care of that we requested. I would highly recommend working with her!” – Buyer in Pittsburgh, PA


“Tamara did an excellent job helping us buy our dream home. She did not push us after our long search and she understood what we wanted. She did not waste our time and was extremely flexible. She made she we did not miss any opportunities for viewing houses. She was a strong advocate for us during the process and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for homes in our area! Her expertise and knowledge base for the area was one of her strong suites.” – Buyer in Pittsburgh, PA


“Tamara is a awesome realtor ! She showed me countless properties until I found the right one, and even helped me find a better mortgage broker. I wouldn’t be in my home now without her help! Thank you so much Tamara! I would highly recommend her. I had other realtors in the past, and they didn’t compare to her. ( My house was a bank repo, so it took us over 6 months to close, she had to jump through a lot of red tape and hoops.)” – Buyer, Glenshaw, PA


“Tamara was very easy to work with and had answers to all my questions. Tamara went out of her way to accommodate my schedule especially towards the end of the process when I wasn’t available because I was away for work. Tamara did everything she could to take the stress out of the process including working with the bank when they were having difficulties keeping up with needed paperwork and coordinating communication to make sure everything was on time and completed correctly. Without Tamara doing as much as she did I know I would not be in a home right now as I would have given up on the process. She was even able to get the members of the bank to communicate with each other when they were on different pages and not communicating with each other. The more things that went wrong outside of our control the more Tamara did to make sure things got corrected. She wasn’t just a realtor she was a friend, a supervisor, a coordinator, a planner, and an organizer. After the purchase she surprised me with a beautiful gift for myself and my puppy that personalized my home and made me feel welcomed and ready to start the next chapter of my life.” – Buyer in Glenshaw, PA


“Tamara is a phenomenal agent! She is the absolute best! The care that she took with us throughout this whole process was amazing! Would recommend her without hesitation!!” – Buyer


“As a contractor who is constantly looking at properties, I couldn’t be happier with anyone else. Tamara is knowledgeable, capable, and always goes above and beyond all of my expectations.” – Buyer, Crafton
