"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
"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. We closed last week, and were reassured that Rob, and his team were there every step of the way. His forward thinking and experience helped us get insights during the home building process. Rob is friendly, respectful of all families, and quickly replies to questions. Rob McGuire is our family Realtor."
-Kate Artau, 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 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
"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

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
"When I decided to relocate, I needed an agent who could handle my home search remotely as I was unable to travel to Florida at the time.

-Steve Stanley, Client

-Keith Santner, 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
"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
"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. His attention to detail leaves no stone unturned. I highly recommend Rob. If I need a house in the future or need to sell my home, Rob will get my business. Not to mention, he's a great guy!!"
-Wayne Douglas, Client

"Rob made our experience selling our home manageable and helped us throughout the process. His experience with contracts, dealing with closing issues and making sure each step of the process was completed on time made the process less stressful. We felt comfortable texting or calling Rob when we had questions."
-Kathy M, 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..."

-James Dotson, 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
"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!"

"
-Belinda B., 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

-Jordan S., 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

-John Bassett, Client
"Rob was very professional in helping us buy our home. He is a joy to work with."
-Roger Garneau, 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
"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
"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!"
-Noah Garcia-Hassell, 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 took the time to answer all of our questions. We highly recommend him and team."

He was there for us every step of the way, we couldn’t ask for a better realtor in Florida."
-Jesse Templeton, 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

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
"Rob McGuire is The Best: sold a flooded house in four days.
"
-Barbara Kaufmann, Client
"Rob was great to work with. He has a very structured approach to learning what type of home you are interested in and how to filter out all the "maybes" and concentrate on the best choices. One way he does this is have you look over lots of listings (yes, you do have to do work for your house hunting) and cull out the ones you don't like and tell him why and then explain what you do like. His process is actually much more structured than a number of other realtors we've dealt with (and we've dealt with more than a few). He's also willing to revise contracts late on a Saturday evening for early on a Sunday morning. If I could afford one more house, we'd definitely use him again."
