Tara Plaza

Tara Plaza is a New Jersey real estate professional with eXp Realty and the Align Team, bringing eight years of experience to the industry and a deep understanding of the market shaped by nearly 30 years in Manalapan. She was drawn to real estate through her passion for New Jersey, her love of building strong relationships, and her desire to help people navigate one of the most important decisions of their lives with confidence, clarity, and care.

Serving clients across Monmouth, Ocean, Middlesex, Somerset, Mercer, Hudson, and Morris Counties, Tara works with buyers and sellers at every stage, including first-time buyers, first-time and seasoned sellers, investors, downsizers, and clients searching for everything from condos and townhomes to single-family homes and rental properties. Her approach is hands-on, responsive, and concierge-driven, and clients consistently describe her as knowledgeable, honest, communicative, diligent, a great negotiator, problem solver, compassionate and fully committed to achieving the best possible result.

Tara’s connection to the communities she serves goes far beyond real estate. She loves exploring New Jersey’s towns, neighborhoods, and local attractions, which helps her guide clients not just to the right home, but to the right lifestyle and location as well. Outside of work, she enjoys traveling, hiking, camping, and staying active, and she is also a dedicated animal advocate who volunteers with local shelters, fosters rescue animals, and helps them find loving homes.
