Before you book, watch this first.
Most agents skip straight to listings. We don't. Before we ever talk square footage, we talk lifestyle, because finding the right community matters as much as the right home. This short video walks you through exactly what our strategy session looks like and what you'll walk away with.
Here's how it works.
Step 1 - Book a time
Fill out the short form, then pick a time on the calendar that works for your schedule. The call is on Zoom and lasts 45 minutes to an hour. Come with questions. Come with concerns. The more you bring, the more useful the call will be.
Step 2 - We do the real work
We start with lifestyle, not listings. Five counties. Forty-plus cities. Completely different answers to "what does a good life look like here?" We'll figure out where your people are before we ever pull up a property search.
Then we talk housing - what the market actually looks like, what your budget buys right now, and which communities match your ideal lifestyle.
And then we tackle the stuff you've already Googled -hurricanes, flood zones, insurance, property taxes.
Step 3 - You leave with clarity
By the end of the call, you'll know your communities, your realistic price point, and your next steps, whether you're ready to move in 3 weeks or in 3 to 13 months. Not a pitch. A picture.
Questions people ask before they book
Is this call free?
Yes. No cost, no obligation. Our goal is to give you a clear picture of what your move looks like - what happens next is entirely up to you.
I'm not ready to move yet. Is it too early to reach out?
We're still deciding between Tampa Bay and a few other cities. Can you still help?
What neighborhoods do you cover?
We need to sell our home before we can buy. Can you help with that, too?
What if we want to work with a specific agent on your team?
Do you work with investors or only primary residence buyers?
What's the best way to reach you if I don't want to book a call?

Maria Jankowska - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceeded Every Expectation! Moving from Ohio to Florida is a massive transition, but finding Stacee and the Tru Living Group made it an absolute breeze. We first discovered them through their @trulivingtampa YouTube videos. We were optimistic before reaching out, but they completely blew our expectations out of the water. Before choosing an agent, we interviewed several other realtors, but Stacee and her team easily won us over with their incredible local knowledge. They provided invaluable guidance as we explored different neighborhoods and ultimately found our perfect community. Since we decided to go with a new construction home, Stacee’s expertise as a new build specialist was a game-changer. She opened our eyes to the negotiations available with builders, ultimately securing us over $35k in builder incentives, a reduction in the overall cost of the home, and less cash out of pocket! We cannot thank Stacee and the Tru Living Group enough, she truly earned every bit of her compensation, and we highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-tier realtor services!Brian P
- Madison Cruz helped my husband and I find a Condo in Bradenton Florida. We do don’t live in the area so everything was virtual. We told Madison what we were looking for and she did not fail in helping us find the perfect place. She was extremely helpful with from beginning to end of the entire home buying process. She is very dedicated and knowledgable about her job. Thank you Madison for such a wonderful home buying experience.Carolyn Siliquini
- Stacee and Tru Living Group provided an exceptional home buying experience for us from start to finish. They offered expert advice on each of the areas we visited and provided honest feedback on properties we looked at. Thanks to them we were able to land on our feet after a very stressful international move and start a new chapter here in a great home and area that suits our needs here in Tampa. They are down to earth and honest folks to work with. Highly recommend.Lareo P
- Ashley was amazing! We were moving from Minnesota to Florida and she walked us through every step in the process, detailing what would and should happen. She listened with interest to what our wants and needs were in a home and neighborhood. Her knowledge of the area we were looking at was unparalleled. She pointed us in the direction we wanted to go and we found our perfect home in short order! Ashley has a bubbly, energetic personality and that transferred to us as we were house hunting. She genuinely cared about us as a couple and make it easy to move to Florida There were zero problems and she made us feel like we were her only client. She was always available and had answers for any questions we had in 24 hours or less. We would absolutely recommend Ashely as a realtor to anyone looking for a place to live in the Tampa area!

- We started working with Madison in November of 2025. My wife and I met her and we were immediately impressed with how warm and kind Madison was. Fast forward to March, 2026. We changed up our original desired location and decided to put in an offer on a condo. Madison guided us so we would put in a strong offer. After a back and forth with the sellers, our offer was accepted! During the due diligence period, we had a lot of questions and Madison went above and beyond to get us all the answers we needed. Nights, weekends, it didn’t make a difference, Madison was there for us. After about 6 years of my wife and I talking about buying a place in Florida, we finally achieved our dream, and Madison was a huge help to us. We cannot recommend Madison and the whole team enough for anyone looking for top notch real estate agent. Thank you again, Madison!Steven
- Working with Madison as my realtor was an incredible experience from start to finish. She made the entire home-buying process in Florida feel easy, seamless, and well organized. Her communication was excellent every step of the way, and she consistently demonstrated transparency, professionalism, and genuine care for my best interests. Madison’s follow-up and follow-through were exceptional. No question went unanswered, and I always felt informed and supported throughout the process. As not only my relator but best friend, I knew she would do a fantastic job, but she still managed to impress me with her commitment and expertise. I highly recommend Madison to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the Tampa Bay area. You’ll be in great hands!Rebecca Sheppard
