-Rob Jimenez, 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."

Rob did all the legwork for me, found me the right place, and was able to handle all the ins and outs of relocation. I highly recommend Rob McGuire without hesitation."
-Steve Stanley, 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."

"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."

"Chris helped me find my house. He was the best! Everything went smooth and was easy for me. If I would sell or buy another home I would call him first."
-Robin Honeywell, 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
"Buying property when you do not live in the area and during a pandemic can be very stressful. Thanks to Rob and his team it was a seamless and pleasurable experience. He listened to what we were looking for and provided good advice and guidance throughout the process. He even went the extra mile by going and scoping out properties for us. We highly recommend Rob when you think about purchasing your next property. Thanks Rob!!"
-Norm Houghtaling, Client
"Chris helped me find my house. He was the best! Everything went smooth and was easy for me. If I would sell or buy another home I would call him first."
-Robin Honeywell, Client
"Rob helped us buy our house recently and he was great. Knowledgeable, professional, friendly, and a true asset to have with you when house hunting. He went out of his way to take pictures and videos of places before we could get out there. And he kept us informed every step of the way. The whole experience was great from start the finish."
-Tom Sullivan, Client
"Rob did a great job in finding a rental property for me. It was not easy dealing with an elderly woman seller who was 2,000 miles away. After 2 weeks back and forth Rob put the purchase together that worked for me. I will be very happy using Rob on my next purchase. I will be looking for another rental property about this time next year."
-Jim Showalter, 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 Tadlock, Client
"I was relocating to the Tampa Bay Area but was not sure which neighborhood I wanted to be in.

It was great working with him and I highly recommend!"
-Ben Burton, Client
"Chris is absolutely wonderful to work with. It’s like having a friend on the “inside” that is working for you. From start to finish he was so communicative, professional but down to earth funny and incredibly personable! I had some bumps with my first broker and Chris was recommended a local he works with that saved the day! Everyone he recommended along the process was so helpful! Highly recommend!"
-Stephanie Moore, Client
"We could not be happier with our experience working with Chris Herbst and the entire Keller Williams St. Petersburg team. Chris provided outstanding service, from the first time we met him to discuss our plans to buy a house, through the entire house purchasing process, to after we moved in. He understood our needs, gave us excellent advice, and made an out of state move completely seamless. Chris knows the market well and guided us to our dream house. He took the time to answer all of our questions. We highly recommend him and team."
-Darren C., Client
"Rob is passionate about his clients. He is well versed with market trends in the areas he represents. He listened to my ideas and needs with regards to selling my home. He gave suggestions for preparing the house to sell which I did. The house sold within 30 hours of listing and at a price I was happy with. While I can’t guarantee your home will sell that quickly, I can attest to Rob’s attention to detail and getting the job done!"
-Wanda Inman, Client
"Rob was great and has a wonderful team."
-Greg Sanden, 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."
-Dan Gasiewski, Client
"If you're looking for a realtor who actively wants to share a vested interest in what's important to you, is able to set up showings at a moment's notice, and is there for you when you need him, look no further than Rob McGuire. I was fortunate enough to meet Rob when I inquired about a specific property and he happened to be the listing agent. I could immediately tell he was someone who cared about what I wanted instead of just trying to make a sale. He got excited WITH ME when we would meet to see homes. I will be referring all my friends and colleagues to Rob. "

-Steve Stanley, Client
"Rob is a fantastic realtor! ...Rob worked diligently with my partner and me to find a home for purchase in St. Petersburg -- we successfully closed at the end of September. During the entire search process, Rob was quick to respond to our inquiries, extremely knowledgable with his support (in terms of local expertise, legal / bureaucratic processes, and infrastructural home details), and effective in understanding exactly what we were looking for... Because we were carrying out the search remotely, Rob regularly surfaced potential listings that were well aligned with our search-criteria, and he was consistently available to give virtual home tours via Zoom anytime we requested a home viewing. Finally, the entire closing process was smooth, quick, and seamless thanks to Rob's high level of organization. All in all, working with Rob and having his guidance throughout the home purchase process was a wonderful experience, and we are grateful for his partnership. Highly recommend!"

Rob utilized a variety of technology tools to identify properties that met our requirements in advance of viewing them. We felt he that he always had our interests at heart, and we had a lot of trust in him. His support staff was extremely organized and always ready to help. We highly recommend The McGuire Home Team at Keller-Williams Realty, St. Pete. They are great to work with, particularly for people who are relocating to Florida."
-Karen Doherty & Lori Mei, Client
"Always willing to go the extra mile to make your experience the best and he will go out of his way to make sure you have everything you need for the transition. We needed a handyman to address small issues around the house and Rob was able to provide a few the same day. We also had issues with the inspection and the dishwasher not working, he was able to find a reliable repairman and also worked alongside the pest control people to ensure everything was handled properly. Definitely will recommend him to friends and family."

-Belinda B., Client
"Rob was instrumental with our search for a new home in Safety Harbor, Florida. We traveled back and forth from Atlanta to St. Petersburg many times and Rob was always ready to shows us the homes we wanted to visit. Rob even took the time to do a virtual viewing when we were not able to be in Florida. Rob is very knowledgeable of the St. Petersburg and surrounding areas and even put us in touch with financing experts who were able to close escrow in record time, allowing the logistics of selling in Atlanta and buying in Safety Harbor to work brilliantly. Finally Rob also recommended an Agent in Atlanta whom we used to successfully sell our Atlanta property. Great job, Rob! Thanks again."
-Steve Jolliffe, Client
"Rob has handled several transactions for me and each one has gone seamlessly and beyond my expectations. 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."
-Joseph M., 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
"Was a pleasure to work with and we were not easy clients. Living out of country and selling a difficult property. But he was always there with the answers we needed. He fixed any problem we threw at him and we had plenty. He helped us in buying and selling. And with exceptional at both. "

He had our Condo sold in a matter of days and we were so pleased that we got the asking price. He has wonderful people skills, and a pleasant personality that we had no problem accepting his advice, when ever he gave it. We trusted him completely. If you are going to sell your home, this is your man. Would recommend him anytime."
-Don & Eva Young, 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
"Rob was great to work with. He listened to our needs/wants and was able to give us plenty of listings to review.

-James Dotson, 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..."
