"Rob was very professional in helping us buy our home. He is a joy to work with."
-Roger Garneau, 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
"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
"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. "
-Ron Meade, 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 is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and a great guy!"
-Bruce Denison, 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..."

"Rob really did a great job for us and went up and beyond In working with us in finding our new home. Being from out of state, we relied greatly on his knowledge and experience to get the job done. His help in getting us in touch with financial and insurance persons was a great help. All were fantastic to work with from 1200 miles away."
-Rusty Johnson, Client
"Rob was amazing in helping make our home buying experience as painless as possible. He was always quick in responding to our numerous questions and issues and everyone that he referred us to, from our title company, to our lenders, were all very professional and made up a great team."
-Robert Haynes, 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
"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
"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
"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 is fantastic! He helped me stay on track through an extremely stressful time (relationship ending, selling house, buying house, moving to a new region). He was always on top of the details, and connected me with some real pro's for financing, inspections, etc. You would do yourself well to choose Rob as your realtor!"
-Keith Santner, 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

-Steve Stanley, Client
"Rob went above and beyond in helping us find a house that suited our needs and our budget!! We must have looked at over 60 houses the week we were here and he kept on top of the market. The house we bought had only been on the market for 8 hours and we were the first to view it. We were also the last ones to view it. The team that he has put together from the real estate area, mortgage area, and insurance is literally the best in the area!!! My husband and I highly recommend him to be the one to find your next house."
-Russell Johnson, Client
"Rob helped us in a preliminary search for 2nd home. He was very responsive, knowledgeable and patient with us.

-Rob Jimenez, 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."
-Bob Marcy, Client
"I moved to Tampa from North Carolina and Rob helped me find a home that I am very happy with. Throughout the process, Rob was always punctual, courteous, knowledgeable and communicative, all qualities needed in a successful Realtor. Although I initially found a home, I cancelled the purchase because too many issues were found with the property post inspection. However, Rob was patient and supportive the entire time and then showed me my current home in a neighborhood that is safe, peaceful and gorgeous. The team that Rob recommended for the entirety of the transaction was also amazing, speaking to Rob's skill and network of great professionals. Again, I would 100% recommend Rob."
-Christian Aguilera, 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"

-Amy Young, 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 helped us move to FL from TN in 2018. We decided FL was no longer for us and he was there to help us through the next phase of our lives and get us out. He had lined up a realtor for us in NC and made the transition seamless. Excellent experience again and we would recommend a thousand times over. Thanks Rob and Chris!!"
-JT Bassett, Client
"I just purchased my 4th home. I've worked with many realtors. Rob is as good as it gets. He is so incredibly easy to work with. He is extremely thorough.

-Wayne Douglas, 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
"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"

-Tony Pruitt, 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 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.
