SOUTH TAMPA, STREET BY STREET

South Tampa is one of MJM Group’s core luxury markets. As a boutique Coldwell Banker Realty team led by Trish McCullough-Johnson and Sonya Madden, we check what others skip: flood zones and elevation street by street, older housing stock realities, condo documents on the islands, and the layout, light and lot position that hold value longer than finishes do.

THE MJM SOUTH TAMPA PROCESS

South Tampa’s premium holds because supply is fixed and demand is constant. Winning here takes preparation on both sides of the table.

Neighborhood Fit

Palma Ceia and Beach Park for schools and streets, Hyde Park for walkability, the islands for water in daily life. We match the neighborhood to how you live.

The True Monthly Number

Insurance and flood realities change block to block. You see the real number for the specific home before any offer.

Positioning to Win

For buyers, offer strategy in a competitive market. For sellers, pricing and presentation built for sophisticated South Tampa buyers.

Close with Certainty

Inspections, appraisal strategy and negotiation handled by two senior agents through closing day.

For buyers who value central access, walkability and established neighborhoods, yes. The premium holds because supply is fixed and demand is constant. Buyers should also weigh flood zones and insurance, which we review street by street.

We worked with Trish to finance a purchase for one of her clients. She was extremely responsive and helpful throughout the mortgage process. I would highly recommend.

Highly recommended and efficient . Trish and I met when she helped my daughter find her new home. Trish came to my home and helped me understand what the current market conditions were and what the best way for me to quickly sell my home. Because of her vast knowledge and experience, we were able to sell the house in just over a week and closed on the house in 30 days. If you’re looking for a no bs kind of agent, Trish is your best choice in selling your home (and for my daughter buying your next home). Thank you!!

Experienced, knowledgeable and professional . Trish represented my husband and myself on the sale of our previous home and on the purchase of our new beautiful home. She guided us through every step of our journey. Always available for any questions we had regarding our sale and purchase. The targeted advertising she used for our sale was amazing. Honestly we can not say enough about her professionalism, knowledge, kindness and honesty. Any client that chooses Trish to represent them will know that she has their best interest at heart.

Outstanding service. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Dream Realtor! Working with Trish McCullough was hands-down the best decision we made in our home-buying journey. From the very first conversation, it was clear that Trish brings not only deep knowledge of the market, but also a rare level of dedication, professionalism, and heart. She listened closely to what we were looking for and worked tirelessly to find us the perfect home — never pressuring us, always guiding us with honesty and insight. Her negotiation skills were sharp, her communication was constant and clear, and her ability to navigate the complexities of the process made us feel secure every step of the way. Trish has that unique gift of making you feel like you're her only client, even though we know she's in high demand. She went above and beyond more times than we can count, and she handled every hurdle with grace, determination, and a genuine smile. If you're buying or selling a home, you want Trish McCullough in your corner. She's not just a fantastic realtor — she's a true partner and advocate. We can't recommend her highly enough!

Outstanding and personable realtor that helped us find our dream home. Trish was above and beyond our expectations in what we would hope a realtor would be! We traveled from out of state for a long weekend to look at as many houses as possible and Trish outlined the most amazing itinerary for us to see anything and everything we wanted- unsure how we were able to squeeze it all in, but Trish did it! We found the most amazing house on a great lot and we are so excited to raise our family in our new home! Trish, thank you so much, from the bottom of my heart, for all your help! You made this process so easy and smooth and we just cannot thank you enough!

As a home inspector that has worked with hundreds of real estate agents over my career, I have seen the good and the bad to be sure. I can tell you beyond a doubt, Trish is one of the best! I have personally seen how she dedicates her time and efforts towards her clients well being. She works tirelessly to ensure that every part of their transaction goes off without a hitch, and when the unforeseen problem pops up, she aggressively works to correct the issue in order to maintain the buyers timeline. Real estate transactions rarely go through the entire process with nothing popping up...and when it does, make sure you have Trish on your team!

Unmatched . It was a pleasure working with Trish, she is unmatched. She got my wife and I into a leased home in record time because of her hard work and being on top of things. She is extremely professional, knowledgeable, and courteous. We recommend her 💯% for your realty needs and I look forward on working with her in the future.

Trish is top notch. She works hard and is there through all the emotions. She is trustworthy and we wouldn’t have wanted to work with anyone else. You won’t regret partnering with her to sell your home or purchase a new home!
