Tara Negard

Operations Manager

Tara turned a lifetime of cross-country moves into a calling—earning her real estate license in 2004 and never looking back. Since then, she has guided countless buyers and sellers, trained and developed agents, and even managed one of Greater Cincinnati’s largest real estate offices, overseeing 120+ agents and 2,000+ transactions annually with nationally recognized results.

In 2019, Tara stepped away from management to return to what she loves most: helping clients one-on-one. Today at Common Ground Realty, she blends seasoned expertise with a people-first approach, making every home journey seamless and affirming.

When she’s not with clients, Tara enjoys cooking, wine, movies, classic rock—and time with her three grandchildren.
