Experience

After an 18-year corporate career with management roles in marketing, planning and contract negotiations, I transferred those skills to the real estate field and joined Coldwell Banker Realty in 2001.

I work with sellers and buyers and excel at marketing and finding properties, facilitating offers and negotiating contracts as well as coordinating transaction aspects from contract to close – all with a strong commitment to communication and attention to detail. I work directly with clients throughout the process staying in close touch to advise and handle issues and ensure all of your questions are answered.  

My clients include home owners and buyers, investors and builders in the North Pinellas and Tampa Bay market. 

My real estate experience also includes serving as a partner in a commercial development group where my responsibilities included contract negotiation, coordination of development and operational activities as well as financing and reporting.

I am certified as a Real Estate Negotiation Expert (RENE) by the Real Estate Business Institute and certified as a Luxury Home Marketing Specialist by the Institute for Luxury Home Marketing. I have a Bachelor of Science in Journalism from the University of Florida and an Executive MBA from Boston University/Metropolitan College. I am also active in the community thru Women in Philanthropy with Morton Plant Mease Health Care Foundation, Coldwell Banker Cares Foundation and East Lake Woodlands Country Club Social Committee charitable activities.

Recommendations
Claudia Tweed went above and beyond to help me. Her knowledge and hard work was excellent. I could not have done it without her. Would, and have recommended Claudia in the past and will continue to do so. ~ Catherine F.

Claudia is the absolute BEST! We worked with Claudia on two offers before finally finding our dream home. Her professionalism, patience, fantastic attitude, knowledge, gracious and kind nature was so refreshing and appreciated. Each and every step was led by Claudia and we could not have purchased our home without her seamless attention to detail in every single phase.  - Demarie A.

I used Claudia to buy my current home as well as sell my previous home. For both she was wonderful. She is knowledgeable of the area, expert in negotiations, and is totally committed to resolving issues while maintaining a very professional attitude and demeanor. Coldwell Banker's online system made all the paperwork so simple. She kept me up-to-date every step of the way and she was a pleasure to work with on both sales...She did an excellent job negotiating the sales contract and working with the buyer through their inspection report, resulting in me having to do virtually nothing. I couldn't have been more pleased. Best experience I've ever had! - Virginia J.

I sold my villa remotely. Claudia made it seem as if I was right there next to her. She kept me informed every step of the way. And as I was far away, she filled in for me with her physical presence, far above what one could expect from any agent. She went out of her way to represent my interests and to make this sale happen. In addition, she made the paper work easy using computer techniques. Plus, where there were questions, she had answers. Where there were obstacles, she gave sage advice to overcome them. In the end, both seller and buyer were more than satisfied and happy. Five stars are not enough. She deserves at least ten !!!! - T. Hillman
