So what do clients have to say?

Chairman’s Circle, Diamond Club, Director's Club, whatever. What follows are my real rewards. Certainly, if I can help you the way I've helped my past clients, we should talk.

"Barbara far exceeded our expectations..."
"After my brother passed away, my family and I had to start the process of selling his two properties. We had to find a reliable real estate agent. We scoured the internet and interviewed some area realtors. When we decided on Barbara, we did not realize yet that we had hit the grand prize.

Barbara far exceeded our expectations. She is an outstanding listing agent with a personable, amiable personality. She gave us excellent advice without ever pressuring us. Throughout the marketing processes, she preformed her many tasks in a most professional, efficient manner. If you ever need a listing agent for your property, you could not go wrong by asking Barbara to be your agent."

Maria Studer

 


"Barbara is a business-savvy, dynamic personality..."
“Barbara is a quietly dignified, elegant, business-savvy, dynamic personality. She's a kitten with her clients but a tiger with the deals. No wonder she wins 90 percent of her offers! As first time home buyers, she gently held our hands showing us homes, assisting and advising us of home loans, and made the time to be present at the title signing.
 She made our dreams of homeownership come true in SIX QUICK WEEKS with our first and only bid! She's absolutely amazing and was just as happy for us as we were when she handed us the keys to our new home.”

The Perez Family


"Barbara Is Without A Doubt, The Ideal Real Estate Agent...”
“It has truly been a pleasure having Barbara Reynolds as our real estate agent. Her professionalism, extraordinary level of service and thorough knowledge of real estate and marketing have served us extremely well.
What could have been a very daunting process turned out to be effortless and very profitable because of Barbara’s creativity in marketing, staging and expertise in negotiations. Barbara’s honesty and sincerity was very reassuring. We always knew she had our best interest in mind. Barbara is without a doubt, the ideal real estate agent..”

 Katherine and Daytra Hansel

"I had my house listed with 3 other agents..."
"I had my house listed for 6 months, with 3 other agents, including "neighborhood specialists" ... and they couldn't sell it. I listed it with Barbara, she suggested a couple things, and it sold, over asking, within 2 weeks, with multiple offers."

Bruce Taylor

"I knew Barbara could sell it if anyone could..."
"I tried to sell my house myself for a few months. When it didn't sell, I chose Barbara. Having been exposed to a lot of different agents in my travels, I’d seen her sell houses other agents couldn't. So I knew she would sell my house.

And low and behold, within 2 weeks we had multiple offers, both over asking. And in her own quiet way, she kept the Buyer and the other agent in line so I didn't have to worry about it at all. She's an Agent's Agent."

Nancy McGraw, former agent




"I so appreciated Barbara's professionalism..."
"I so appreciated Barbara's professionalism and expertise. Not just in real estate, but in relationships, psychology, economics, and ridiculously absurd situations. Her grace, incredible active communication skills, foresight, compassion, and strategic and tactical vision are outstanding assets that she applies to getting the most for her clients, no matter how difficult or complex any given situation may be.
Further, she proactively remains graceful and professional no matter how poorly those around her act, or how ugly the situation gets. I cannot adequately thank her for all that she brings to the table, but I will try."

Mike Bannen

"I talked to four agents and I chose the right...”
"She worked with me, making suggestions on how I could get a better sale price. She didn't scare me off. We made the decisions together. I knew if anyone could sell it for more, she could. And she did, a good deal more."  

Megan Rush

"Our property went on the market at the worst time...”
"Barbara helped us buy the property six years ago, and helped us sell it this year. There was lots of uncertainty about the financial markets. But she far exceeded our expectations in her professionalism, her expertise, her business savvy, her excellent communications, her marketing skills, her rich network of services, and her plain ability to succeed in getting us a good result. Her advice about renovations, marketing and staging, and her management of all those activities was priceless."  

Mary and Ben Murray


"We had looked for 2 years with other agents..."
"You think all agents are the same, but they're definitely not. We spent 2 years going to Open Houses every Sunday. And after 10 unsuccessful offers, we met Barbara.  She listened to us, and got us to focus our search so it wasn't a wild goose chase. She was frank and straight-forward, didn't push us into anything and even told us not to buy a couple houses.
After 2 months with Barbara, we finally have a house we love. And it was even a great deal. We still can't believe it."
Eddie and Alexis Kleinhans

"We wanted an edge ..."
"Barbara is an incredibly talented and knowledgeable agent, and she truly cares about her client's needs and concerns. That gave us a lot of confidence in trying to buy a home in this challenging market. When it came down to putting in an offer, Barbara was meticulous, her team of inspectors was reliable, and Barbara was a savvy negotiator. She even helped my husband feel more at ease by talking him through all the financial aspects of the market/loans and the home we wanted. We wanted a deal ... and we got it -- thanks to Barbara."

 Andrea VanderPluym

"We wouldn't have gotten the house without her... "
"My daughter and I wanted to buy a duplex together. We fell in love with one, and so did at least five others.  Barbara coached us on what to do in our offer. Unfortunately, we could only go so high.
As it turned out, we were the lowest offer. And I don't know how she did it, but we got it!  There is no doubt we would not have gotten it without her. We now have a shrine to her in our hallway."

Kathleen Colloton


“If it had not been for Barbara’s temperament and extraordinary patience, I don’t believe our property could have been sold...”
“The sale of our property wasn’t a mere sale.  Our four-unit property was 100% family occupied and had been a part of our legacy for over 54 years.   Had it not been for Barbara’s temperament and extraordinary patience, I don’t believe the property could have been sold in such a timely manner ... and for over the asking price!  

Not only were we pleased with the outcome, but so were the other family occupants.  The amount we got over asking allowed the entire family to benefit from the sale and softened the transition of having to relocate.  We will be forever grateful for Barbara’s assistance in relieving our family of the financial burden of maintaining this property.”

J and L Smith
