Tamara Harke — South Bend Realtor | Coldwell Banker

Looking for a realtor in South Bend, Granger, Mishawaka, Osceola, or Elkhart and Marshall Counties? I'm Tamara Harke, a full-time Realtor with Coldwell Banker since 2003 — 20 years of local experience guiding buyers and sellers through every stage of the process.

Real estate can feel overwhelming: shifting markets, mountains of paperwork, and a closing date that always seems to keep moving. I've helped hundreds of clients navigate it, and I know exactly where the pitfalls are so you don't have to find them the hard way.

What I help with:

• First-time homebuyers who need a steady, patient guide through an unfamiliar process

• Seniors and downsizers: I'm a certified Senior Real Estate Specialist (SRES), trained to guide homeowners 50 through selling, downsizing, and relocating with confidence and less stress  

• Sellers who want sharp local pricing expertise and a smooth path to closing

• Repeat & referral clients who want an experienced, efficient partner

• Buyers and sellers relocating in or around South Bend, Granger, Mishawaka, Osceola, Elkhart County, and Marshall County

• Moving outside the area? I'll connect you with a trusted, vetted agent anywhere in the US or internationally through the Coldwell Banker network, so you get the same level of care wherever you're headed.

• After the sale, I don't leave you high and dry. Past clients can always reach out to me for vendor contacts, advice, or general questions about real estate and property taxes.

The values I bring to every transaction:

• Honesty — You'll always get my straight, honest opinion, even when it's not what you want to hear.

• Integrity — I do right by my clients whether anyone's watching or not.

• Communication — You'll never wonder where things stand. I keep you informed at every step.

• Local expertise — Deep, real-world knowledge of South Bend area neighborhoods, pricing trends, and market conditions.

• Client-first advocacy — Your goals drive every decision I make on your behalf, not the other way around.

• Reliability — I show up, follow through, and stay available when you need me.

Why clients choose me:

• Lifelong South Bend resident with deep knowledge of local neighborhoods and subdivisions

• 23 years of full-time experience with Coldwell Banker

• Known for being honest, responsive, and detail-oriented through every transaction

• Active in local Realtor and business community organizations
