"I have had the opportunity to work with Tess Mullinax over several years and multiple properties. She is the consummate professional, always available to walk through the purchasing and selling process. She has navigated complex closings with me and always had a satisfactory outcome. Her knowledge and rupation in the industry are held at the highest level and she is always my go to recommendation whenever someone needs a real estate professional. -Bryan Eichler

"Tess is extremely professional, dedicated, hardworking and a pleasure to work with. She found us our off market dream home by knocking on doors and did not give up when we were ready to! We had extremely specific criteria of which only a few homes in the Old Northeast area of St Petersburg fit and by knocking on doors and not giving up, found our off market listing which we were able to purchase quickly before hitting the market. Once under contract, she was instrumental in getting inspections, mortgage, insurance, and everything handled within our short close period. We truly do not think we would have found our dream home if it weren’t for Tess!

"Tess really demonstrated value to me and my team during this transaction - starting from inception when we gave her the criteria that we were targeting for our acquisitions. She's a true team player, from start to finish, and was able to bring together some pretty diverse constituencies to make this deal happen. We look forward to working with her for years to come.

"I met Tess Mullinax by chance at an open house event and was immediately impressed by her knowledge of the area and genuine interest in my real estate needs. I’ve lived in St. Petersburg for 38 years and rarely meet anyone who knows the city better than I do. I’d spent months searching for a double lot to build my retirement dream home. I needed something large enough for one story, close to downtown in a high and dry neighborhood. Throughout my search, other agents used words like impossible. They also indicated I would need to spend double my budget, build a two story house on a single lot, or move farther away from downtown.
Tess by contrast took on the challenge like a professional athlete heading into a playoff game. In less than 30 days, Tess Mullinax found the perfect double lot that exceeded my expectations and stayed within my budget. I truly believe what sets Tess apart is her dedication and desire to make her client’s dreams come true. A few months later Tess listed and sold my father’s condo in less than a week, netting higher than expected profits. When my new house is built, I will rely on Tess to sell my Snell Isle home, as I know she will put it all on the line for me as she does for all her clients. Look no further, Hire Tess!!"

I will definitely recommend Tess highly to anyone looking to buy in the area!"

"Tess helped us find our first home in Florida. She exceeded all our expectations by over communicating with us every step of the process, being responsive during all hours of the day (including weekends), and most importantly, understanding our wants. We were truly impressed by her dedication and professionalism. She made our home buying experience feel like a walk in the park and thanks to her we bought our dream home. We highly recommend her!"
★★★★★
"Tess is a true professional and full time agent. She took the time to understand our needs and wish list and helped us to prioritize them to fit our budget. She was very proactive, once we exhausted homes already on the market she began looking for new and upcoming listings that met our criteria. On several listings we were the first to see the home giving us an advantage over other active home buyers. The home that we ended up purchasing, we knew within an hour of the For Sale sign being placed in the yard and were the first to view the home the following morning when the listing went active. Once under contract, she was instrumental in getting inspections, mortgage, insurance and getting everything handled before due dates to ensure we had time to thoroughly review and make educated decisions. We are very happy with our new home and know we would not be here if it were not for Tess. Highly recommended!"
★★★★★
"Tess was incredible to work with. She is honest, hardworking, and knowledgeable of the market. She listened and understood our vision, and was patient as we searched through many homes to find the one. We had so much trust in Tess that she even toured homes for us via video while we were out of town, and we even put in an offer on a home we never saw. We knew Tess had our best interest in mind at all times. Not only that, but she has tons of connections. We never had to look far when it came to help with loans, renovations, and more because of her recommendations. Tess is also a very skilled negotiator, making it possible for us to buy our home just under asking in this extreme seller's market. I would recommend Tess 100 xs over!"
★★★★★
" Tess was great to work with for her knowledge about today's housing market and our interest in it. Patient with our continuing search and honest about the pricing of houses in today's pressured market demand. In this market boom it was nice to have a clean opinion on the value of the houses we were looking at. She'll be our go-to for years to come. "
★★★★★
" We really enjoyed working with Tess. She made the entire process of buying a new home and selling our old one easy. She was there every step of the way and was quick to respond to any questions we had. We had complete trust in her due to her knowledge of the ever changing market. We highly recommend her for anyone looking to buy or sell! "

" Tess is a consummate professional and an absolute joy to work with. Her knowledge of the real estate market, specifically the Tampa Bay and St Pete area, is unmatched against any real estate agent in the area. The service, care, and thoughtful approach she provided throughout the entire process made a potential stressful situation all but that. She has a keen eye for detail and managed every element of the sale from start to finish. There is NO one else I will ever work with again when it comes to future real estate endeavors.
Tess is passionate about the real estate industry, including the thrill of discovering perfect off-market homes for her clients. Her deep rooted knowledge of the area and long-standing connections with locals allows for access others are not privy to, making her a trusted advisor in the market. She takes pride in witnessing and contributing to the thoughtful transformation of Tampa Bay through new developments and preservation of historic properties. Her design background allows Tess to align clients' visions with their dream homes. Tess loves the area's access to beautiful beaches, classic Old Florida neighborhoods, and its vibrant, emerging restaurant and art scene.
Outside of her professional life, Tess enjoys traveling, taking in the arts scenes and exploring culinary delights with her partner, Vanessa and walking the lovely waterfront parks with their rescue dog, Fritz. Her commitment to her clients and the community is unwavering; and, she is dedicated to meeting the real estate needs of Tampa Bay with enthusiasm and integrity.
