Tiffany Sharkey is one of those rare throwbacks from a time when real estate agents were actually trained and brought more to the table than than just a pen to sign their commission check! She's very knowledgeable, well informed and professional.
First of all, she knows her markets (notice the plural). She knows the comps, the best desirable areas, the areas to stay away from, unique obstacles or advantages to different, upcoming zoning changes, infrastructure changes and issues, planned retail and new development, etc. One might say that's good but a lot of agents know the above. Based on my experiences I would disagree. But wait, there's so much more!
Tiffany knows all the builders, the principals, their history, which ones went belly up, left their customers holding the bag with no warranties and are now re-organizng under a new name,etc. Which ones have a bad reputation in the market. Very important stuff to know when making a several hundred thousand dollar investment into a home. Are you starting to see where Tiffany separates herself from the pack? Good, cause there's more!
She's an excellent negotiator and advocate no matter what side she represents. She's not afraid to go in and support you with a number that YOU feel comfortable with even though it may result in her losing a sale and potential commission check! Many real estate agents are so scared of losing the sale they'll steer you in whichever direction the wind is blowing, which is a scary prospect indeed in Texas where the the wind is always kicking up a storm! Not Tiffany, she'll stay the course as long as feasible. Hmmm, that gap is widening more and more, huh? Good, cause theres still more!
Where Tiffany is really unique and in my opinion unparalleled is her knowledge of construction, building materials, the construction process from developer to builder, workmanship, tricks builders use to save money, etc. If you go into a home with Tiffany she'll be away to tell you in short fashion where the builder cut corners, point out cheap materials, poor workmanship, etc. What's really incredible is that not only can she identify these problems but she can also give you a technical explanation of how these issues developed and explain the process the builder should have used to do it right. Amazing!
If you're a guy, put your pride aside because more than likely Tiffany knows more than you! Instead, let her get behind the wheel and drive. Oh yeah, bring your hard hat, steel toe boots, overalls and lunch bucket because Tiffany is going to take you places and teach you things you might never find out. And in my book that's always a good thing!
Highly recommended!

Tiffany has provided my wife and me with outstanding service over the past three years.
She came highly recommended to me from several of my co-workers who had used her in the past as we decided to purchase our first home 3 years ago.
Tiffany took the time to work with us and educate us on the entire home buying experience before we began so that we would be sure to avoid the common "first time home buyer" mistakes.
Tiffany always took the time to listen to our questions and address not only our question but also the underlying concern.
She was always professional and her "approachable" personality made the whole process less intimidating.
My wife and I were never hesitant to ask Tiffany the difficult questions and we always felt comfortable and confident with her advice.
Perhaps most importantly, was the fact that Tiffany always made a point to listen to what we were looking for in a home and didn't try to make us accept anything differently. My wife and I both work full time but Tiffany was very flexible with her schedule to accommodate us by showing us homes on week nights and even on the weekends!
Needless to say, my wife and I are very satisfied with Tiffany's services and knew then we would work with her again in the future.
In fact, we recently purchased our second home, which was a foreclosure, and Tiffany did a phenomenal job educating us on the purchase of a foreclosure.Soon we were making an offer.Tiffany jumped into action putting our existing home on the market and getting it sold during our option period on the foreclosure we just bought.Tiffany got the job done so we never had one month with two mortgages.
I would more than highly recommend Tiffany to anyone in need of a real estate consultant.
Whether they are a first time home buyer, or a veteran looking to purchase a foreclosed property or build the home of their dreams!
Tiffany has made our home buying experience an enjoyable one and we sincerely appreciate her professionalism and willingness to serve anyway she could.
Sincerely,
Jason and Emily

It felt more like a friendship than a business relationship from the get go.
You were sincerely invested in getting us what we wanted for the price we wanted to pay.
We knew that was not going to be an easy task but we were dead set on a price range/low house payment and did not want to exceed that set budget.You found the needle in the haystack house that was in an excellent school district and a home that did not need a bunch of remodeling work done to it.You hooked us up with new carpet at a great price and we moved right in.We love this house and we are not stresses about a huge mortgage because we don't have one.
We will recommend you to our family and friends in the future and wish you and your family all the best.
Don't be a stranger now that we are closed.
Sincerely,
Joe and Denise

"We appreciated the way you all walked us through this process without ever patronizing us. You treated us with respect and honored the fact that buying a house is a big deal. You handled the transition from selling our home to searching for our new home smoothly and thoughtfully. We like your laid back yet professional approach."
- Dawn/Alex Warner
Tiffany,
We just got moved and we really, really, really, love our home.
Thanks so much for the help in finding us the perfect floor plan in the perfect neighborhood and right school district.Thank you for all you did after the closing to help us remodel.
We were forewarned by all of our family and friends to what a nightmare remodeling a home would be.
Fortunately that was not the case for us.
With every detail and in every instance you handled it to our complete satisfaction.
There were even occasions where you took the initiative and handled potential problems before we even were aware they was a potential problem.
You are a pro at what you do Tiffany!!!!
We will forever encourage our family and friends to use you when they are ready to sell or buy a home.
Sincerely,

Thank you so much for the holiday card and gift. I want to thank you and everyone in your office for all of your help and assistance and for going above and beyond for me so many times. Everyone was a pleasure to work with and never seemed too busy to answer my seemingly endless array of questions. Your professionalism, politeness, and willingness, along with your great personalities and sense of humor helped me through the difficult and sometimes frustrating process of buying and selling a home. I couldn't have done it without your help and support. Thank you again and happy holidays!"
- Lauren Reeves
Tiffany
You know, what may appear to most to be routine and prototypical does not escape our attention!
You, like always, have distinguished yourself by consistently doing exactly what you say you're going to do! It is a simple task that most ignore, like most constituent parts of excellence......
None of it is real complicated and yet so few execute on a day to day basis.
BRAVO......
For your consistent professionalism and the confidence you engender by doing your job. Well done girl.....
It is a privilege to work with you again and we remain confident that you are the best that money can buy. So often excellence is expected and yet it is so seldom affirmed ........
What I am telling you is we like you, we trust you, and you will always represent us in any real estate transaction in which we require representation. ....
We appreciate the job you do and the value you bring to the marketplace.
Thanks

We would like to take this opportunity to write a short thank you note expressing our appreciation to you for your EXCELLENCE IN CUSTOMER SERVICE!
It is very easy to see why you are so successful.We did our research before we selected a Realtor to work with and the fact you are voted for the VIP Customer Service award every year as well as D Magazine Top Realtor in Dallas year after year interested enough to contact you personally.Why work with anyone else when you can work with the best?We thought someone so successful would have a group/team and we would probably be passed down the line to a employee of Tiffany Sharkey.That did not happen at all.It was Tiffany we dealt with 100% of the time from contract to closing.Thank you for making the entire process enjoyable.You are the best there is Tiffany!
Your friends,
Bre and Robert
- Sabrena and Robert Delaney
Thank for your "no pressure" approach and the patients to show me so many homes without pulling your hair completely out.
You allowed me as the customer to take each house for a "test drive".
It was obvious you cared more about my happiness and representing me in the best way than you could than you worried about the sales commission.That did not go unnoticed.
I am so blessed to have met you and your family Tiffany.
Also thanks for selling my sisters house so quickly.
She is very happy with your real estate services as well.
You are officially my first friend in Prosper Texas!
We will need to do wine soon on my new awesome covered patio.

We moved into our new Drees custom home last month.
In our 45 years of married life we have had the challenge of moving 20 times and building 5 homes in 5 different states.
That being said...
Tiffany you by FAR are the most professional real estate agent we have ever met.
We really appreciated your extensive knowledge in new home construction and helping us pick out all our color selections for the house.
That was so fun !
We love you go getter attitude!!
Please use us as a reference in the future we loved everything about working with you in the new home search-building process-color selections-punch out-closing.
You are the best real estate consultant ever!!!

Tiffany,
me and Dan want to take time out to tell you how much we appreciate your accountability,professionalism,and thoroughness.
You are the queen of going above and beyond the call of duty!
I am sure me and Dan will have another baby (or two) over the next 3-4 years so we will need to sell this house and buy a bigger home and there is nobody we would ever call to get that job done besides you.
We have a really great home and we fell like we also made a really good friend in the process:)

Dear Tiffany,
We wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for the outstanding level of service you provided us during our recent home search. We are extremely happy with our purchase, and feel that you played such a positive role in the buying process!
We were both so impressed with your knowledge of not only the area market, but also relating to houses in general. Your ability to discuss attributes of the home from a physical structure point of view, in addition to the marketability of the property, is of enormous benefit to your clients, and we feel so fortunate to have had the opportunity to have you working on our behalf. In addition to your knowledge and skill, we were also most impressed by your attention to detail and constant accessibility. All of our (many) questions were answered in a timely fashion, and you patiently showed us a large variety of available properties, careful not to rush our decision in any way.
As all of your clients must be, we are extremely grateful to you for the quality effort you put into your work. You have made us two very happy customers, and have our whole-hearted recommendation. Thank you so much!
Sincerely,
Liz & Mike Uber

Tiffany thank you so much for going to the architect with us and helping us with the design details.There are so many things ou think of that we do not because you have shown and built so many homes yourself.It was a learning process ending in a customize floor plan that is our one of a kind home.
You are really good at what you do Tiffany.
Your knowledge in reading blueprints,and over all new home construction is leaps and bounds above any other home builder,Realtor or on site homes sales rep we have encountered in our search.
Very impressive.
The stone and brick design you picked for the fireplace is perfect!
We don't know how to thank you for doing all of the things that you did which does not fit under a Realtors job description.
You go the extra 5 miles.
Keep in touch.
We want you to sell our house if we ever move.
You are our real estate consultant for life.

Catherine and I would like to express how fortunate we feel to have worked with you in the process of selling and buying a home. Tiffany.
We asked several people around Frisco who was the best Realtor for Prosper Texas and your name came up over and over and over.You have a great reputation in the real estate business.
All of our family and friends said "Tiffany will take care of you".
That was an understatement!
Tiffany you went above and beyond what any other Realtors would be willing to do to get the job done.
Thanks for the hours and hours you spent emailing us foreclosures,new listings in our preferred school districts and updates on properties we had seen and then been reduced in price.
You are on the ball like nobody's business !!!
Once we finally found "The House" your keen negotiating skills saved almost $80K on the purchase of the house.Now we can afford the pool!!
Thanks Tiff for a job very well done.

"I had my property listed with two different Realtors prior to my listing with Tiffany Sharkey. I was truly impressed with her professionalism and real estate market knowledge as well as the whole process and extra effort Tiffany went to in marketing my home for sale.I felt like a part of her family. Tiffany SOLD my home for not much less than my asking price. One heck of a deal. Tiffany is very professional and understanding with her clients specific needs. I couldn't be happier and would certainly list with Tiffany again if the need arises"
- Ron and Pat Simmons
Tiffany,
Your people skills are insane!

Tiffany,
Your level of work ethic,honesty,and patients,is rarely seen in most businesses today.
We found homes we liked and almost made an offer on before we met you.
Shortly after meeting you and you showing us where we needed to invest our money into a home for better resale (location..location..location)we knew God put you in our path.
Tiffany we almost made a huge mistake on a real estate purchase before your guidance and comparable sales records showed us why it was not the right house for us.
We are really super proud of our new custom home.
Thanks again Tiffany.

Thanks again Tiffany.
You are truly one of a kind!!

Tiffany,
We had too much fun looking a houses with you.
Sorry we made you show us 100 homes.Ha
We sure needed you to narrow down all the homes we liked to one favorite and then we finally bought a house.
Our house is perfect for our family.
We are in process of adding an outdoor kitchen.
Tell Scott thanks for sending the brick layer over to brick in the outdoor appliances.
You two make a great team.
We really think the building experience was enjoyable because your attitude made it that way.
You have a way of making your clients feel very important to you.
We know you were working with 8 other clients building homes/searching for homes while working with us and we always felt like we were your only customers.
We will miss not hanging out with you all the time.
Come by and visit us regularly.
Thanks for your genuine professionalism and over the top customer service.
- Terri Zetsche/Will Zetsche
Tiffany we want to thank you for all your efforts during the building cycle on our Hunington Home.
Your construction knowledge/ability to visualize/negotiate with the sales rep/builders is why we selected you as our real estate agent.
Thanks for taking the time to work with the architect in our behalf to get the plans exactly how we wanted them to be.Our home and it's 11 rooms all are completely accessible for our handicap child. You thinking out of the box made the sale possible.
Thank You..Thank You...for your willingness to accommodate our last minute changes and request.

You were relaxed, courteous, responsible, intelligent and very efficient. We had never bought a home before (despite our age) and we were from out of state-- so there was plenty of room for anxiety and other various preoccupations. However, from the moment we met Tiffany, she was available, efficient, competent, and wonderful to work with.
We have no complaints, only praise for Tiffany and her company.
We liked the name of your company and we had a hunch we'd be happy with your services. We were right!
Thanks for everything."
- Bob/Hadley Richmond
"We appreciated working with a honest down-to-earth Realtor who we could instantly trust.Tiffany you treated us like we were important to you and more than a commission.You wanted to genuinely help us.Scott's follow up and willingness to step us through this process was appreciated."

Tiffany,
We would like to say thanks for your help in every phase of the selling of our existing home,in our search for a builder to build our new home,managing the building process on our new home.
You were there for us from contract to the closing (all 9 months of it) as you promised in the beginning you would be.Tiffany you are a woman of your word and that makes a huge difference for us.
No other Realtor would have marketed and sold our existing home so quick and got us the $$$ we needed out of the existing home to put towards building the new house.
Tiffany you go the extra mile and made us feel like really special customers and your approach was ALWAYS personable.
You are truly a devoted professional.
Our very favorite thing about you Tiffany is your endless cheerful enthusiasm!
Our home is open you any day and anytime Tiffany!

We love it!!!

I purchased and built a new home with your buyer representation in 2004 and from day one after meeting you I was comfortable with you as my real estate agent.
You found us the perfect builder and designed us the perfect house for all our pets and frequent visitors.
We had some strange request that you helped us incorporate into our new home by selling the ideas to the builder/ sales representative.
Our home really does "feel like home" because of the custom changes to work for our life style.
Tiffany we can't thank you enough.
Keep in touch.

Tiffany Sharkey is the ultimate real estate professional! After selling 3 homes for us, we know she has the uncanny ability to list our home at the right price and sell it quickly for the maximum profit! Tiffany's amazing responsiveness and genuine concern for her clients' needs makes her truly unique and the only Realtor we would ever use.

"I really appreciated the personal attention from Tiffany. Tiffany was incredibly responsive and proved to be good listener - all of our needs were heard and met! While I can't say that buying my first home was easy, Tiffany made it as painless as possible. I'm also impressed by her negotiation skills - she is kind, prepared, and persuasive, all while getting the job done without force or fear tactics. Tiffany remains true to the good and honest person she is."
Bruce and Kitty
- Bruse/Kitty Wilkerson
My wife and I made the decision to sell our first home and as a first step in the process we had to find a Realtor.
I started my research and developed a short list of agents based on local recommendations.
When I researched Tiffany online I was brought to her website where I found an extensive library of tips and tricks in selling a home.
I determined that if she was willing to put that much energy into helping any web surfer, she will do even better for a client in selling their home and I was right.
Tiffany gave us her proposal along with some market research during our initial meeting and was truly a joy to be around.
It was obvious she knew her business and had the abundance of energy necessary to get the job done.
She was at no point pushy and her contract terms were fair giving me generous flexibility if she wasn’t able to produce, so I felt I couldn’t go wrong.
My wife and I agreed to hire Tiffany and the marketing began immediately.
We knew we were selling in a down economy and a tough real estate market but Tiffany was still producing showing after showing letting us know her marketing approach was effective and we hired the right girl.
The timing of the market and the location of our home made finding the right buyer difficult, but Tiffany produced over 70 showings in 60 days which resulted in multiple offers one of which we accepted and closed on with zero hassles.
Tiffany was energetic and friendly through the entire process and truly provided an advisory role while letting my wife and I make the decisions.
We would not hesitate to use Tiffany again and highly recommend her to anyone considering her real estate services.
Warm Regards,
Dennis and Patricia Sharp
