Amesbury Newburyport MA Home For Sale, Condo,Townhome-Single-Multi-Family-REMAX On the River Real Estate-MLS-BNI-property-search

Two years ago, we started looking for a house in the Essex County/Massachusetts area. We found Tara’s website the easiest to use among the many we tried. Soon, we were getting daily automatic emails of properties within our parameters and alerts of changes. It was amazingly accurate and up to date and included local business and school listings which we appreciated. But, Tara and her assistant Kim were the most amazing people to work with. Tara’s professionalism, patience and knowledge of the area and Massachusetts Real estate were impressive. We felt extremely comfortable talking with and asking many questions of her. We consider her a very good friend. Kim made sure every detail was in order throughout the transaction and we got a terrific property at a great price in an awesome location. We enthusiastically recommend Tara, Kim and RE/MAX On the River. P.S. We couldn’t imagine having to do all the footwork and paperwork Tara and Kim did for us so effortlessly. They were always there for us and never dropped the ball. We would have never been able to purchase this property without them! Pete & Melinda D. Amesbury, MA

As first time homebuyers, we were very inexperienced and overwhelmed by the whole entire process. Tara Donahue-Scott was knowledgeable and extremely helpful in guiding us through the experience and helping us to make informed decisions. We immediately felt confident that we could trust her advice. Tara and her assistant Kim relieved us of a great deal of stress at a normally very stressful time. We now feel like we have met our lifetime Realtor. Tara, thank you for all of your hard work for us! We will certainly recommend you to our friends and families as they embark on their home-buying journeys!
Kate & Paul B, Amesbury, MA

Tara Donahue-Scott was an excellent realtor for me. She was very personable, warm, consummate professional who guided me through the sometimes complex process of purchasing a home. Even though she provided me with much needed guidance, I was left with the freedom of making the essential choices. It is not always easy to find the right home. It takes work. But having someone like Tara on your team helps immeasurably, and for that I offer my highest recommendation to her as a professional realtor.

Both my fiancé and I recently worked with Tara in our respective transactions. We could not have been more pleased with the service provided by Tara and her assistant Kim. They guided us through every step of the process, always making us feel like our interests were well protected. Selling/buying real estate can be a harrowing ordeal—they made it easy! Plus, Tara sold my condo in less than three weeks! Tara and her team will definitely be the Realtor we use in the future.

Michael G. & LeeAnn W, Haverhill, MA

Working with Tara was the best choice we could have made in this largest purchase of our lives. Since we were first-time home buyers, we had a lot of questions. Tara answered every one of them clearly and took the time to understand our situation. She was professional, courteous, and a pleasure to work with. She returned all of our messages and calls promptly and her answers were always knowledgeable. Additionally, Tara’s office staff was warm and professional as well. Tara took the time to meet with us and work around our busy schedules. We absolutely recommend her services to anyone interested in the real estate market and we will be calling her again when it is time for our next home. We could not have found a better agent to work with!
Matthew & Erin J, Haverhill, MA

We are writing to say what a wonderful experience we had having Tara represent us in our search for a new home, and the conversion of our existing 4 family into Condominiums. Condominium conversions are a very daunting task. Mix in with it many different personalities of buyers due to selling four homes instead of just one, can in itself, be nerve racking. Tara was always right there, with very sound professional advice and courtesy toward us and the potential buyers. She was a great negotiator, and when needed, very adept at keeping small problems from being blown out of proportion. Tara takes the time to recommend small, but significant, details to your property to catch a buyer’s eye therefore making your property more sellable. She uses her design experience to help those of us who do not have much of a design eye – which proves to be very helpful.

We highly recommend Tara for the sale of any property. Our property sale and the purchase of our new home put Tara through every possible situation involved in real estate. Tara performed wonderfully in all of them. She is truly a diverse and professional agent, and a very good friend.

Best regards, Kevin and Dorothy S, South Hampton, NH

As first time home buyers we were very nervous about the whole home buying experience. We approached the process cautiously and had many questions and concerns. Tara was wonderful about explaining all answers to our questions to us honestly and thoroughly. She made sure we understood everything going on throughout the entire process, from the first time we met to the final minutes of our closing. We could truly confide in Tara, as well as her assistant Kim. Tara was always available to us, whether it was early morning phone calls of evening showings. She always worked around out very crazy schedules and that was important to us. Tara really knows her stuff! A “good” agent is an excellent tool for a home buyer. Tara is a “great” agent and clearly one of the best agents in the area!
Melissa & Derek D, Haverhill, MA

I first met Tara when I responded to a listing in the newspaper. I had just been promoted to a great position in Boston and was faced with the huge challenge of relocating from Maine as quickly as possible; I had only come to New England from the Southwest one year before, and had no real idea where to start looking. Tara was immensely helpful in quickly outlining my options, perceiving who I am and where I would best fit in. We were able to quickly find a place that was right. When I encountered a nightmare situation with my chosen lender, Tara had the right connections with another mortgage broker who was able to get my loan closed in only 9 days. Tara, you did a great job! Thank you so much!
Della C, Amesbury, MA

I cannot begin to thank you for all that you’ve done. After the seller backed out for the first deal, I thought I would never find another house. You’ve devoted so much time to me and really got to know my likes and dislikes as well as my needs and wishes. As you now, even after closing there were some issues; once again you stepped up to the plate. I love my new townhouse and couldn’t be happier. I look forward to working with you again in the future.
Thank you for making me feel like a priority and looking out for my best interests.
Stacy M, Haverhill, MA

Our experience with Tara was truly enjoyable. She made us feel comfortable and without a doubt always had our best interest in mind. As she got to know us, Tara was very much aware of our taste, needs, and financial concerns while we looked for our home. Not only was Tara knowledgeable in regards to our personal needs, but she is very knowledgeable in all aspects of real estate: everything from new construction to historical homes, all the laws and the ins and outs of every different community (and they are all different!)Tara was always available from start to finish—and she even knows how to recommend good pizza joints!
Greg and Colleen G, Georgetown, MA

Working with Tara Donahue-Scott was an excellent decision and a real pleasure. From day one she was committed to selling our home and making the experience as stress-free as possible for us. Tara and her assistant gave 110% and sold our house in a short amount of time during the slowest season. Her professional manner, experience and knowledge of the real estate market and delightful personality seem to be the perfect combination for success. Tara put together a creative marketing plan that she continually reviewed and revised as needed. She kept us updated and was always accessible and honored our input on marketing strategies. Tara is everything we had hoped for in a realtor and more. I would not hesitate to use her again or recommend her to anyone looking for a top-notch agent who will go above and beyond to make your home selling experience successful.
Christine G, Amesbury MA

We wanted to thank you for all you did to make the sale of our Salisbury home such a pleasurable experience. We know you had many other properties that you were selling at the same time, but you always made us feel like we were always at the top of the list. Your attention to detail is amazing and you are a wealth of information. We could not be more pleased with your services. We never had to worry about a thing, you always had it under control and for that we thank you! As for the townhouse we purchased, we love it! It is just what we wanted and needed at this time. You knew just what to show us and it worked out perfectly. We look forward to doing business again. Thank you for being our realtor and our friend!
Dawn and Rob W, Ipswich MA

My husband and I had interviewed with agents from four different real estate agencies before we had the good fortune of meeting Tara. Our situation was a little more involved than just needing an agent to advertise and sell our property. We had two condominiums to sell. We needed a person who was energetic, someone who was very knowledgeable in his or her field, dynamic, professional, honest, friendly and warm. All of these qualities fit Tara to a tee. We had found the ideal real estate agent. Tara spent many hours working with Brian and I and answering our endless amount of questions. She was always considerate of setting up showings that were convenient for us as well as for my elderly parents who lived in our other condominium. Tara always called after showings with the feedback of potential buyers. When Tara sold both of our properties, my husband and I were confident that Tara would find us our dream home-and she did! Thank you, Tara, for all of your hard work. You are a professional and a wonderful person.

Jodi and Brian D, Groveland, MA

My husband and I had a positive experience working with Tara.
When we decided what we wanted then what we needed, what we had to have; and, finally, what we could compromise on, Tara worked with us and showed us properties within those ranges. She seemed to take a special interest in our family and saw the needs of our children and us.
It was a pleasure working with her. The sale of our condo to the purchase of our home happened so quickly and easily.

We first met Tara Donahue-Scott when our daughter and son-in-law were selling their home and buying another one. We had a large piece of property to sell and we thought we could do it ourselves. After three offers that fell through, we called Tara. She took pictures and gave us a proposal. She put the property description in the Boston Globe and the following Friday our property was sold! Since we were also looking for another home, she kept us posted on the internet about what was out there. She advised us to get a bridge loan in case we found a house before our closing. That is what we did and she found us the perfect home. She was on top of everything and we did not have to do anything. She kept in contact with us almost daily. We found her to be very friendly and pleasant and we felt she was very concerned about our interests. We would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone.”
Pat & Wally Dash, Kingston, NH

We elected to market our townhouse ourselves. What a great way to save money and get an education in real estate selling! We had met Tara from RE/MAX on the River when she did a real estate price analysis for us, and she called from time to time to see how our sale was going. After spending hundreds of dollars on advertising and staying home weekends to show our property, all we had to show for our efforts were a lot of names of ‘tire kickers.’ We threw in the towel and called Tara, the professional, and in one week we had a buyer within 7K of our asking price!

I wanted to take the time to expressed how pleased Jennifer and I were with you representing us on the sale of our property at 4 Country Lane in Amesbury, MA. From the first time we spoke on the phone you provided outstanding service and were professional. Even more impressive is that you maintained the same high level of service throughout the entire process. I remember how skeptical I was when you first provided your thoughts on the sale price of our home. I didn’t think it was possible for a house to appreciate approximately $100,000 in less than 2 years. Yet, you convinced us that it was the appropriate market value and that we should go with your suggestion. Indeed, you were correct! Additionally, to complicate matters one of our neighbors unexpectantly put their house on the market at the same time (a very similar house). Jennifer and I were very discouraged knowing that we needed a quick sale due to my relocation, and this added competition might make the process longer than anticipated. To your credit, you stayed calm even when we panicked and clearly marketed our house better than our neighbor’s agent. Sure enough, our house sold in less than 10 days! The neighbor’s house remained on the market even after our closing (30+ days later). There is no doubt that the tools you utilized made the difference. From the featured listings in newspapers and web-sites, to just your pure dedication is what ultimately made the difference! As you know, we have two young children (Jenna 3 years, Sarah 1 year). This alone could make showing a house difficult. My wife anticipated having to be ousted from the house at a moment’s notice. Thankfully, you were respectful of her time and always gave us fair warning for showings. I must also mention how much my 3-year-old took to you. To this day she still talks about “Tara.” You were kind enough to bring her (and us) a few small gifts for our trip to our new home in PA. Jenna was nicely distracted during our journey as she played with the car friendly toys you gave her. It was much appreciated. In summary, we had an amazing experience working with you, and would be happy to provide a reference. Please feel free to use this letter as our testimony.

Sincerely, John and Jennifer Khantzian

We were very nervous about purchasing our first home, very inexperienced and unsure about what we really wanted. Having been referred to Tara from friends, we were pleasantly surprised to find her to be a warm, patient, real estate professional. Tara worked very hard to educate us on what type of house we could afford, what “red flags to look out for, the demographics of the areas we were interested in, and especially, the paperwork necessary to get it all done. Although we were very demanding as buyers, Tara was always there to hold our hands and make the process as simple as possible for us. Her personal touch was definitely appreciated and helped to make buying our first home an exciting time in our lives. We would highly recommend Tara to anyone who looking to buy or sell their home. It has become very obvious to us from working with her, that she strives to be the best at what she does and is 100% dedicated to her clients.
