I want to sincerely thank Barbara for making what could have been an overwhelming process feel seamless from start to finish. She guided me every step of the way, finding the perfect home to downsize into, handling the financing, arranging the movers, managing the contractors, even overseeing the design & project management work. I felt at ease the first 10 minutes she started asking me questions and truly finding out my needs, the bigger picture. She sold my home for far more than I ever expected, especially in today’s uncertain market.
Barbara’s patience, gentleness, and genuine care made all the difference. She listened to what I needed, never rushed me, and took care of details I wouldn’t have known to ask for. I was quite stressed at the start as I am older and technologically challenged, but once Barbara stepped in, I could breathe again. She went above and beyond in every possible way like my own daughter would have. That's rare, she is rare. I can’t thank her enough.

Barbara took a personal interest in our needs. She made the selling experience easy to understand and complete. She kept us organized, giving us the freedom to continue with our daily routines without worry. Barbara provided us all the resources we needed to pass our inspections and make our house presentable. In this time of fast action selling and buying, she kept us calm and focused, politely reminding us when anything needed to be done. She promised only to get us noticed, and it resulted in us getting more than we could have hoped for our house’s selling price. She was very professional and fun to work with. We hope others get the privilege of having her represent them.

It was great working with Barbara. We had worked together since December when I first started looking for homes, and it took eight months to close because it was a brand new home. There were some hiccups along the way, but she was with me through and through. Barbara recommended that I buy down the interest rate, and it worked out in my favor—especially during a time when interest rates kept going up. Because it took a bit of time for my home to be completed as a new build, I was able to keep my rate lock and secure a lower interest rate, even as rates continued to rise.
I would recommend Barbara to my friends and family looking to purchase a home—a thousand percent.

"I met Barbara when I was trying to purchase a house. She happened to be the realtor representing the seller. Since I knew a bit about buying and selling, I decided to look around without a realtor but quickly decided that I would use her as a double agent. I was very impressed with the way she stayed professional and ethical as she represented both parties. She still managed to look out for both parties. In the end, I lost out to another buyer, which impressed me even more about her as most realtors would fight and manipulate to get their double commission."

I was really particular with what I wanted, and thanks to her understanding of all the neighborhoods and what is on the market or about to come onto the market, I got exactly what I was looking for. She would be my absolute go-to going forward."

"Barbara is an excellent realtor. She is very knowledgeable about the areas we were interested in. She was very patient with our search and was always ready to look at the homes we wanted to check out. She is always hands-on, especially during the escrow phase, and made sure what is needed to be done before closing. Barbara has a lovely personality, with a smile and a can-do attitude. She always makes things happen. Barbara isn't just our one-time realtor but in the future, if I ever buy another house I would work with her again. I truly recommend her for your next home buying or selling needs."
