"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
"Rob was great to work with. After choosing a home to purchase online Rob executed our offer and acceptance paperwork without delay. He and his coordinator, Sarah kept us abreast of items to complete and scheduled our inspections promptly. They helped us along the way to a happy and successful closing this week. We would highly recommend to contact Rob and his team to help and guide you through your new home purchase. Give him a call to arrange a time to meet to discuss your future purchase endeavors."

-Douglas Ricketts, Client
"Rob was amazing! Even when things fell through, he was the voice of reason letting us know that just meant something better would come along. He was right and now we're happy homeowners of a PERFECT home!"

"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."
-Joe Marini, Client

-Cindy Finn, 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
"Rob McGuire helped us to find our perfect townhome. He is an excellent communicator, listened to our requests and found properties that matched our needs and budget. 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
"Rob worked diligently with me to try an accommodate my unusual family situation. He was patient and understanding of my circumstances. He showed us many homes that could potentially work for me. He also has a good sense of humor which made this search more than just business. I highly recommend Rob McGuire for your new home search. Thanks Rob"
-judith kenny, 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
"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
"So grateful to have come to know Rob McGuire with Keller Williams. A terrific resource for buyers and sellers in our community."
-James McEleney, 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 assisted me in purchasing a condo from out of state. His keen negotiating skills landed the deal without the nonsense of having to deal with multiple offers."
-Rene' DeCroce, 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."

-Amy Young, Client
"Chris Herbst recently facilitated a Florida condo sale for me. He more than fulfilled the responsibilities of a competent realtor; he went above and beyond. Throughout my hunt for a condo and the purchase itself, I was in New Hampshire. He was my eyes and ears, an interpreter of Florida law and condo docs, and truly a friend. He wrote and rewrote contracts and went to properties, keeping me in the loop by camera - always with an eye for what I wanted and needed - and represented me in a fair and friendly manner. His understanding of the market, real estate, and human relations ultimately brought me to the right place. That is quite a feat, as there were many bumps along the way. We talked frequently, he guided the process in my absence, and was always a friendly and trusted presence for me. In short, Chris was absolutely outstanding."
-Connie VH, Client
"Rob was great to work with. He made buying a home from out of state much less stressful. He was always quick to respond to questions, and showed us exactly the home types we were interested in. Lastly, he was always on time to showing and flexible in working with changing times.
Top notch!"
-Bobby Claussen, Client
"Rob is very professional, courteous, prompt at everything and dealing with him as my agent was a pleasure. He scheduled an open house which was very successful and marketed my property so well."
-Matt Wishon, 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
"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
"Rob has been attentive and responsive. We're in another state purchasing a second home in Florida. He has guided us through the process. We are very pleased that we chose him."
-Rebecca Davis, 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. "
-Adam Hintzman, Client
"I retired and relocated from out of state. I never thought I would purchase a home over the internet, but due to Covid-19, travel was limited and Rob was able to be my eyes and ears on the ground during this entire process. He not only previewed homes for me, but also sent me videos of the homes that I was interested in. He was able to represent me during the entire purchasing process, as well as our virtual closing, I am very happy with my purchase and could NOT have done it without Rob. He is very knowledgeable and responsive to any and all of my needs."
-L. Zafke, Client
"We wanted to find the right home after retirement. Rob listened to our needs and guided us to just the right house in just the right community for us, and our dogs.

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

-Chris Hammons, 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

-John Bassett, Client
"Rob helped us in a preliminary search for 2nd home. He was very responsive, knowledgeable and patient with us.

-Rob Jimenez, Client
"Rob is a great agent that is very attentive and pays close attention to details. He stuck with me through the whole process of finding a place to closing on it. You can't go wrong using this agent."
-Stephen LeMaster, Client

"Rob is great. Plain and simple, he is professional, knowledgeable, hard working and made the whole process of buying a house easy. He went out of his way to help us find the perfect house that checked all of the boxes on our wish list. We just closed on the house and we are thrilled.
Rob kept us abreast of new properties and helped us with putting in the right offer. He was with us every step of the way; made sure we made informed decisions; and kept us up to date as we went along.
He gets my highest recommendation and I am not one to hand that kind of compliment out easily"
-Dotivan, 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. From a personal point of view, he helped me so much. We had a small hiccup, not Rob's fault, at closing and he waited in the title company office until it was sorted which I was so grateful for. I would recommend Rob."
-Sue Gurney, 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."

-James McEleney, 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
"If you are looking to buy or sell your home, Rob McGuire, Chris Herbst and everyone at the McGuire Home Team are knowledgeable and caring professionals. My husband and I just moved to Clearwater and Rob and his team helped us find our perfect home, guided us through the home-buying process, and made sure we closed on-time. Thank you to the McGuire Home Team!"
-Robert Telford, Client
"I was very happy to have Rob as my realtor. He was very professional, knowledgeable and always stayed in touch throughout the entire process of marketing, showing the home and the closing. It only took three days for my home to be sold. I will most definitely be handing out his business cards and referring other potential clients to him... Thank you Rob"
-John Dutton, Client
"Rob and his team were excellent! We were owners of a Condo in Tampa and our home was a vacation home. We did most of our communication via email and text as we live in Michigan. We had several hurdles to overcome with a very difficult HOA. Rob always stayed persistent and never let down to get the answers. There were 8 other condo's for sale in our complex on different sites, but you could tell which one was ours by the excellent professional photography! Leaps and bounds above the others! Rob and his team always kept us updated and informed. Being 1,200 miles away, Rob even helped us with onsite maintenance for us. He went way above what he was hired to do. I can't imagine going through what we went through with a different realtor. "
-Matt Klosowski, 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."
