My family moved here from Chicago when I was 11, and I had no say in it. Thirty-five years later, the Tampa area is home. I'm a proud USF alum raising my own family in Land O' Lakes, and most mornings you'll find me at the ice rink with my figure-skating daughters.
I've been selling homes here since 2005. I live in comfy clothes, I don't do heels, and I believe where you live shapes how your life feels. When you list with me, you get a neighbor who knows these streets, the schools, and the buyers looking for a home like yours.
Before we talk price or marketing, I want to understand what a great sale looks like for you: your timing, your next move, and what will make this feel easy.
About 18,000 homes are for sale across the Tampa area, so buyers compare carefully and take their time.
Homes priced right from day one sell. Homes that chase the market end up cutting their price, and they sit longer.
Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater figures are from Realtor.com, September 2026. When we meet, I'll bring the live Stellar MLS numbers for your neighborhood and price range.
The most attention a home ever gets is in its first two weeks. Price it right and we create competition. Price it high and buyers skip it.
I'll bring the data, and you'll see exactly how I arrive at your number.
Right price, day one, drives the most showings and the strongest offers.
Overpriced, the listing goes stale and invites lowball offers.

"Michelle and Missy were so knowledgeable and helpful in getting our home prepared to go on the market. Thanks to them, our house sold within a few days. Michelle also found just the perfect house for us. They helped make this stressful time so much easier!"
"The group did a fantastic job helping with both buying and selling a home we bought in Florida. They are very friendly, knowledgeable and get down to business. I highly recommend!"
