At Dare Realty Group, powered by Keller Williams Legacy, we know real estate isn’t just about buying or selling a house—it’s about making one of life’s most significant financial and personal decisions with confidence. Our role is to guide you through that process with clear advice, proven strategy, and a personalized approach that puts your goals first.
Who We Are:
Trish Dare, founder of Dare Realty Group, has called the Triangle home for more than 17 years. Over that time, she has built a reputation as a trusted advisor for clients who expect honesty, market expertise, and results. With a background in luxury and relocation, Trish has helped hundreds of clients successfully move into and within the Raleigh, Cary, Apex, and Holly Springs areas.
What sets Trish apart is her ability to combine in-depth local knowledge with a clear and straightforward approach. She understands that buying or selling a home is not just a transaction—it’s a turning point in life. Clients value her calm guidance, her sharp eye for property potential, and her proven strategies for navigating competitive markets. Beyond contracts and negotiations, Trish takes pride in building lasting relationships—many of her clients return repeatedly, knowing she’ll always put their best interests first.
Steve Dare, business partner at Dare Realty Group, spent 25 years in the technology industry before bringing his skills to real estate. His career was built on leadership, operations, and systems, but what truly drives him now is helping clients achieve their real estate goals. Steve combines a process-driven mindset with a client-first approach, ensuring that every transaction is handled with both efficiency and personal attention. His background in negotiation and client service adds another layer of strength to the team, giving clients confidence that their best interests are always the top priority.
Together, Trish and Steve have created a boutique real estate group that blends local expertise with strong business insight—delivering an experience that’s professional, efficient, and tailored to each client.
What We Do:
We work with clients at every stage of the real estate journey—whether you’re buying, selling, relocating, investing, or simply exploring your options. Our specialties include:
- Relocation Clients – Helping clients moving into the Triangle with expert guidance on neighborhoods, schools, commutes, and lifestyle so the transition feels seamless.
- Executive & Luxury Homes – Specializing in high-end properties, from executive estates to custom-built homes, with marketing strategies designed to showcase distinctive features and connect with the right buyers.
- Right-Size Buyers – Whether you’re moving up, moving down, or making a lifestyle change, we’ll help you find the home that fits where you are in life. That could mean a larger home for a growing family, downsizing after the kids leave, or moving into a community that better suits your lifestyle—such as one with golf, walkability, or 55+ living. Whatever the next chapter looks like, we’ll create a plan to get you there.
- Sellers – Delivering a comprehensive plan to maximize your home’s value. From professional staging and strategic pricing to high-impact marketing and skilled negotiation, we position your home to stand out in the market and drive results. Our goal is to sell quickly, attract qualified buyers, and secure the highest possible price.
- Investors – Using market knowledge, data analysis, and local insight to help identify opportunities that build strong long-term value.
How We Work:
Every client is unique, and so is every plan we create. We collaborate closely with our clients to understand their priorities, then build a strategy that aligns with their goals. Along the way, we provide guidance, resources, and honest advice—so you always feel informed and empowered to make the best decision.
From staging and marketing to pricing and negotiation, we manage the details while keeping you involved at every step. The result is a process that feels clear, intentional, and focused on delivering results.
Our Mission:
At Dare Realty Group, our mission is straightforward: to provide our clients with confidence and clarity in one of life’s most significant decisions. With the proper guidance and a well-planned approach, your next move can be a smart step forward and the beginning of what’s next.
