Tara Bunker | Managing Director, Operations

Intensely client focused and with a knack for problem-solving, Tara Bunker honed her real estate skills from an early age. Growing up in the Palm Springs area as part of a real estate and development family, Tara was indoctrinated into the myriad of challenges faced by successful real estate professionals early in life. This invaluable education provided a running start to her remarkable career as she relocated to Orange County in 2007 after graduating from the University of Redlands.

Tara’s trusted reputation among her clients and her peers is evidenced by her participation in more than $2.3 billion in real estate sales in the competitive Orange County coastal market. Tara’s strategic thinking, negotiating savvy, and depth of experience provide a special edge. Combined with a unique ability to guide buyers and sellers gently through the real estate process, Tara is a sought-after real estate professional in a very crowded market - focused on creating long term relationships, not single transactions. 

Beyond real estate, Tara enjoys her family time with husband Bryce and raising three young rambunctious boys/junior agents by the beach. In a world that is becoming more impersonal and transactionally based, Tara is passionate about helping people and takes a distinct pride in providing her clients with a gratifying and seamless experience during what is often the most impactful decisions we make across our lives.
