-Ron Meade, Client

Rob is friendly, respectful of all families, and quickly replies to questions. Rob McGuire is our family Realtor."

He went above and beyond to find me the perfect home and because of his expert negotiating skills, I got a great deal. The entire process was easy and he made sure that every detail was taken care of. I highly recommend Chris and I will use his services again should the need arise!"
-Dawn J, Client
"When the time came to list my home for sale, I chose Rob McGuire for the listing agent. First we had a meeting and he offered suggestions on which proposed improvements were a must, and which ones would have the biggest impact on the asking price. He did extensive research to determine what homes have sold for in the area and justify our listing price. Once the listing went live, Rob was ready with a well thought out effective marketing strategy which promoted the home an many different platforms. Rob was very helpful throughout the sale process, always available to answer questions and to guide us through the process, letting us know what to expect next. In the end, we got 9 offers, which Rob took the time to review and explain the differences. Rob's thoroughness and attention to detail was greatly appreciated and made for a smooth sales process. I would highly recommend his service to anybody selling or buying a home."
-Chris Gourdine, Client
"My husband and I relocated to FL from OH and Rob was beyond fantastic. We had a very short window of time and and a long list of must have items. Rob listened to us and found us exactly what we were looking for. That is when he became more than a realtor and became our friend for life. Because of distance he handled our inspection for us. The house had issues which caused us to go out of contract while the owner worked on fixing them. Rob stayed on it and worked extremely hard to get us back in contract and ensured we got the house that was perfect for us. Getting us to closing was down to the wire and again he supported us every step of the way. If you are looking for a realtor who actually cares for his clients and not just the sale, look no further than Rob McGuire..."
-Chris Hale, Client
"Rob sold us our home back in 2018. We lived in California so we needed someone who knew the area and would really step forward finding us the right places to view on our short weekend visit. Within two days, we found the perfect house with Rob's help. We did not have to worry about a thing and Rob took control of all the paperwork. I highly recommend working with Rob no matter where in the Tampa Bay Area you decide to move."
-Jonathan Corey, Client
"Rob was very knowledgeable of the market and properties in the area. He provided us with great reading material to get us started and we had several introductory phone calls before meeting him in person on a Saturday morning. We toured some home with Rob and his partner Chris and the following day attended an open house that Rob had sent to us. We ended up making an offer on Sunday and were able to settle (cash deal) 2 1/2 weeks later! Rob and Chris were phenomenal in walking us through the process and ensured that we were ready and on top of every step along the way. It couldn't have been any smoother and seamless. Highly recommend Rob McGuire and Chris Herbst!"
-Mike Torpy, Client

"We are thrilled to share our experience with our incredible realtor, Rob McGuire who has been our trusted partner since we moved to St Petersburg. From the moment we started working with his team, they were exceptionally responsive and always ready to assist us. They truly went above and beyond their duty to ensure our satisfaction throughout the entire process. Rob’s kindness and attention to detail were greatly appreciated, and his service was nothing short of stellar. We couldn't have asked for a better partner in selling our home and purchasing our new one. Thank you for making this journey so smooth and successful!"
-Tony Pruitt, Client
"I first got in contact with Rob on a whim about a year ago. I was planning a move from Philly to Pinellas county and looking for an agent that could not only find us a home to live in, but also investment properties. Fast forward a few months and I made a trip down with my family to review our investment goals and Rob immediately went to work to line things up. That first trip, didnt end in a purchase but Rob continued to send me leads and when we eventually moved in July, we were able to hit the ground running. We started looking at investment properties and Rob had great knowledge of the neighborhoods, and gave me some great insight on where he felt the neighborhoods were heading in the future. We ended up offering on a property in early September and are scheduled to close tomorrow. Being new to Florida real estate, I'm so glad to have Rob on my team. As an investor, and buying my personal home Rob is a guy I look forward to working with many years."
-Jason DiClemente, Client
"Rob is the consummate professional: He knows his business better than any other realtor I've worked with (and this is my 9th real estate transaction). He'll steer you through the maze and keep you on track. He doesn't hesitate to negotiate on behalf of his client. He's an outstanding member of the greater Tampa Bay community, and a very nice guy to boot! If you are a member of the LGBT community, Rob is very well connected, a big supporter in both spirit and generosity. He'll even help you make connections here. So I definitely recommend Rob! If you choose him, you won't be disappointed."
-Keith S., Client

-Greg Sanden, Client
"My fiancé and I engaged Rob to help us purchase our first home! As out of state buyers, we had a lot of questions about the local area and becoming Florida residents. He listened to our needs and wants and was able to provide good recommendations. Rob assisted us when we needed to make decision without being pushy and was always available for questions/concerns. He was able to help us negotiate with a difficult seller and always maintained a can-do attitude through all of the demands. We would certainly recommend Rob to any buyer and plan to work with him again in the future!"
-Elaine Bland, Client
"This is the second time I worked with Rob. Both times have been professional and knowledgeable. He is excellent when it comes to minor issues and major problems.

-Stephanie Moore, Client
"Rob helped us in a preliminary search for 2nd home. He was very responsive, knowledgeable and patient with us. Ultimately we decided that we wanted to focus our search in a different geographical area but are very grateful for the thourough and painless experience and Rob's help all along the way."
-Rob Jimenez, Client
"I've known Rob for years and when I found he was a Real Estate agent in the Tampa area, I knew we had to use him as our agent. He was excellent with the negotiations on a difficult sale that fell-through, and then with the next house whose owner and agent were a pleasure to deal with."
-Evan Ladd, Client
"I worked with Rob to find the perfect lot for my needs. Rob is very responsive to email, text and phone calls. He communicates often and thoroughly, and is friendly and cheerful. He listened to my needs and quickly focused his search on opportunities that matched my needs. Fortunately for me, I was able to find a property I liked the very first day that I was out looking at property with Rob. The sales process for my lot was a bit more complex than usual because the seller lives in Germany and because the property includes some protected wetlands. Rob was consistently following up to gather all of the information I needed to help determine a fair offer price and then follow through until an agreed sale price was reached and the sale was closed. I highly recommend Rob and would definitely work with Rob again should I need to buy or sell in the Tampa /St Pete / Clearwater area"

-John Bassett, Client
"He is one of the best realtor I worked with, he was so helpful to me that we worked with my bank and me to close the deal. it was very tough road with banking, but he was with me guiding each and every corner. so finally I got my new home. Thanks you very much rob for your time. I can say your are awesome"
-Sai Murakar, Client
"Rob was an excellent realtor from our first telephone conversation. He was very attentive to my individual needs. Rob was professional in his business and went beyond my expectations.

I would recommend Rob."

He is very professional, always gives well thought out and sound advice, and is prompt and thorough in his communication. I have entrusted Rob's services for a mid-range priced house up to a million dollar listing and with each one he gave exemplary service. Rob never inflated the value of a listing just to obtain the exclusive for it, rather he was always straight-forward and honest about true valuations which resulted in positive outcomes with each sale. Rob has always led with integrity and therefore remains a trusted real estate professional when the need arises again."

-Cindy Finn, Client
"I worked with Rob in '18 when purchasing a rental property, & after seeing his expertise of the area, his attention to detail, & complete dedication to providing the absolute best service to his clients, I knew that he would be my go to agent going forward. Fast forward to '21. With the hot market that we're in, we decided to sell that property. Having been in contact over the years, I called Rob about listing the property & getting it sold fast. True to who Rob is, the experience was exactly as I expected. We met and he was 100% prepared w/a detailed analysis of the property, area, & market. We came up with a plan together, & he executed it to perfection. Under contract on day 2, over asking price, & a 3 week closing. We closed without a hitch. Rob makes the process a breeze. I didn't have to worry about anything, because I knew he had my best interest in mind. Hiring Rob is, undeniably, the best decision that you can make."
-Jason DiClemente, Client
"I found Chris Herbst (and his partner Rob) on this site and am so glad to offer a review here for others. Chris is an exceptional partner and I offer my highest recommendation without reservations. Here are 8 ways that Chris was a great partner for my process. (1) He knows St. Pete well and has great insights with regard to neighborhoods, structures, and the market - after we met just once, he suggested 2 areas would be a great match for me and would be in my price range, and he was 100% right. (2) He is patient and positive - when we would see a house and it wasn't what I hoped for given the listing and photos, he was so great about just looking forward and onto the next! (3) He is flexible - I had an interesting search with 3 potential outcomes at 3 different price points, and he graciously worked on all 3 with me to help increase the odds of a successful process. (4) He is very even-keeled; this can be a stressful process, and his steady demeanor reduces that stress. (5)He is..."
-John Fanning, Client
"It was a pleasure working with Chris. He went the extra mile to keep me informed of
new listings and was always available to meet me at a listing. Chris communicated
with me each day while I was in town. He was very helpful when visiting houses and
made me appreciate that he was there to show me things I didn't see. I was only in
the area for 5 days and Chris worked very hard to find me more than a house, but a
home in which I am very happy. Chris made house hunting a painless process."
