About Us

At Stone Homes NJ powered by eXp Realty, luxury is more than a price point, it’s an experience grounded in trust, strategy, and genuine connection.

Our team is built on a shared belief that elevated results come from clarity, integrity, and thoughtful communication. We take our work seriously, but not ourselves. We bring energy, warmth, and a sense of ease to the process, while remaining unwavering in our commitment to protecting our clients’ interests and negotiating the strongest possible outcomes.

We lead with growth, constantly refining our approach through market intelligence, behavioral science, and proven coaching principles. With a foundation of integrity, we communicate transparently and act in alignment with what’s best for our clients, every time. We believe in love as a leadership principle, creating relationships rooted in care, respect, and long-term trust, while giving back through our ongoing support of local charity organizations. We value fun, knowing that confidence and momentum thrive in an environment that feels human and engaging. And we operate with courage, advocating boldly, negotiating strategically, and standing firmly for our clients when it matters most.

What truly sets Tara and our team apart is our ability to adapt to you. Through access to advanced communication tools such as DISC, our team adjusts how we deliver information, guidance, and support based on how our clients best receive it, so decisions are made with confidence and clarity, not pressure.

The result is a luxury real estate experience that feels refined yet approachable, strategic yet personal and always aligned with your goals.

Get to Know Me

Luxury doesn’t have to feel stuffy, and it certainly shouldn’t feel transactional. At Stone Homes NJ, powered by eXp Luxury, we believe the best results come from a blend of elevated expertise, strategic thinking, and genuine human connection.
 
We bring a refined, high-touch approach to luxury real estate while remaining deeply approachable. We enjoy the process, we keep things light where we can, and we believe real estate should feel exciting, not overwhelming. That said, when it comes to negotiation, positioning, and protecting our clients’ interests, we are relentlessly focused. Securing the best value and the right opportunities for our clients is always the priority, period.
 
What truly differentiates our team is the depth of experience and insight we bring to every relationship. With over 26 years in real estate, including transactions in New Jersey, Connecticut, and Massachusetts (Cape Cod), our background spans luxury residential, new development, equestrian properties, large acreage, and estate-level homes. These properties require specialized knowledge, thoughtful positioning, and a highly targeted marketing strategy, something most agents simply don’t have the experience to deliver. We do. And we have a private network of buyers, agents, and trusted vendors to match.
 
In addition, our clients benefit from something rare in real estate: access to science-backed coaching tools. As a top-performing professional coach, Tara offers clients the option to leverage DISC communication insights, allowing our team to understand how each client prefers to receive information, process decisions, and communicate under pressure. We then adapt our approach accordingly, so clients feel informed, confident, and supported in the way that works best for them. It’s a smarter, more personalized experience rooted in behavioral science, not guesswork.
 
We’re also deeply committed to giving back. A portion of every closing is donated to local charities with a focus in supporting organizations that protect and care for animals in need. Why? True success means creating a ripple effect of positive impact.
 
At the end of the day, working with Tara and her team means more than hiring a real estate agent. It means partnering with a team that combines market expertise, strategic negotiation, advanced communication insight, and a genuine love for our craft, so you feel confident, empowered, and well taken care of at every step.
