    Satisfaction Rating An agent's star rating is the average of all the ratings of their service.
    I am a licensed real estate agent that joined the business in 2004. We specialize in buying, selling and leasing single family houses, condominiums and 2-4 unit properties. This is our core business. We do buy, sell and lease land and commercial properties for some selected clients.

    We are experts negotiating short sales and bank owned (known as REOs) property sales. Each month, 30-60% of all sales are distressed property transactions. We have superb relationships with many banks to help get these sales closed in a timely manner.

    The business of rental properties is extremely competitive as many homeowners have lost or short sold their homes need a place to live. It requires great care and patience with property owners to lease their rental properties to these families and individuals. We are caring, ethical agents that make a difference in people¿s lives.
    We help investors add real estate properties to their portfolios as rents are on the rise. So, with real estate prices far below the peak in 2006, interest rates remaining attractive for non cash investors and demand for rental properties excessively high, the next 3-7 years provide enormous opportunities for investors. We work with several groups buying investment properties, fixing them up and reselling them, or buying these properties and renting them out with attractive rates of return. We continue to look for new investors seeking these opportunities.

    Dr. Julie gave Bill 5 stars out of 5
    Bill Taraschi is OUTSTANDING to work with. He moved very fast on my situation, he is efficient and he delivered far beyond my expectations. I had two rental properties that I was losing a lot of money on. In one month he managed to create a new lease for one tenant and replaced the other tenant with no days loss of rent! Both rentals are now at fair market value & I am profiting now. He is supportive and easy to work with. I will be using him in 2018 to purchase a primary residence.
