Tara Townsend
Real Estate Broker

Reliable, Experienced, Hands-on service for Seattle

My Approach

Buying or selling a home doesn’t have to be stressful. With the right support from someone to guide you through the process step-by-step with honest and clear communication, it can actually be harmonious – and even fun!

Your advocate from the start, I approach the process with kindness, understanding, and empathy. I combine my vast knowledge of the Seattle market with detailed, customized service for each client, and my strategic approach to marketing results in sellers receiving the maximum price for their homes.

Hi, I’m Tara.

I’m passionate about people, making connections, and real estate. I’ve always had a thing for houses—my favorite thing to doodle as a kid—which likely stems from moving around some throughout childhood.

Moving forces you to re-exam what home means, which is a hearty subject to dissect!

I moved to Seattle 20 years ago, and have planted roots here in the charming neighborhood of Magnolia where my husband and I are raising our two awesome kids. In my free time, I love to garden, cuddle my two cats, Reign and Sounder (yes, we are soccer fans) and hang out with our two bernedoodles, Oreo and Rosie.

Testimonials

  • We have worked with Tara three times and if we every had cause to sell in the future we wouldn't hesitate to with her again or recommend her to our friends - she is awesome!

    Nikki- Queen Anne

  • Tara is absolutely wonderful! We always felt the sale of our tiny condo was as important to Tara as it was to us. She problem-solved easily through some strange and unpredictable issues... and made sure our sale closed. We are so glad we had the chance to work with Tara!!

    Margaret- Lower Queen Anne

  • Tara was fantastic to work with. She has helped us through the sale as we were moving out of state and handled so many things - it was incredibly easy to work with her. Really appreciate Tara's attention to details, honesty, and overall helpfulness. Would recommend 10/10!

    Kosta- Queen Anne

  • Tara was THE BEST! Knowledgeable, experienced, responsive, market-savvy... She ticks off all the boxes. I can't recommend her highly enough.

    Jim- Magnolia

  • I was hesitant to use a realtor in Seattle's aggressive real estate market but had read Tara's previous reviews and decided to let her handle my house sale. And I'm so glad I did! She was warm and approachable yet professional and realistic. I would not hesitate to recommend Tara to others; indeed, I've already sang her praises to my close friends. They know I'm hard to please and hold high standards so they know this means Tara went above and beyond.
