Review for Member: Barb Gallivan
ZillowVERIFIEDWe recently sold our home, and Barb Gallivan was our real estate broker. She provided exceptional service, and we were very pleased with the outcome. Barb is extremely knowledgeable about the local market and thanks to her experience and marketing strategy, our home sold quickly. She provided expert guidance, kept us informed throughout the process and was very helpful during the negotiation. I highly recommend Barb as a real estate broker who is knowledgeable, trustworthy and committed to obtaining the best outcome for her clients.

ZillowVERIFIED Working with Fawn for the second time (in 10 years) was just as great as the first. The housing market however, was completely different and far more stressful. Fawn was supportive, knowledgeable, available and fierce. We trusted her guidance every step of the way. Forever grateful for Fawn and the Barb Gallivan team!

ZillowVERIFIED If you are questioning whether to try and buy/sell your home on your own; use the Galivan Group. We were interested in trying to sell our current home and buy a new one with our growing family and we couldnt have been more pleased with the way everything worked out. From start to finish we were able to reach out at any time with questions and all of our needs were taken care of. They have a great team that makes you feel special and taken care of at all times. We listed our house and accepted an offer over asking price within 36 hours. We also put in an offer and it was accepted on our new house before it went public. We were able to schedule the closings the same day and they made sure everything went as smoothly as possible. We are very pleased with this team and strongly suggest you keep them in mind for all of your buying/selling needs! 12/10

ZillowVERIFIED Barb handled our real estate transaction smoothly and professionally from start to finish. We put the house on the market on a Thursday and had a good offer on the house by Sunday. She is very knowledgeable about real estate in the Champaign County area, and was able to guide us on a fair asking price.I represented my mother during this house sale, but I live on the East Coast, making it very hard to travel to Illinois due to the Covid restrictions. Barb and her team handled all repair needs and upgrades requested from the buyer during the settlement process, taking an incredible amount of stress out of my life. Barb professionally guided us through all maze of legal work involved in settling a house. i would highly recommend the Gallivan team for your real estate needs.

ZillowVERIFIED The Gallivan Group was incredibly helpful through the entire buying and selling process. Not only did they patiently answer all of our questions, they also always did so in a very timely manner. Jen was amazing as we searched for our forever home, and Barb and Katie guided us through what can be a complicated selling process to find us a buyer in just 10 days! I never doubted that they were on our side, and I'd recommend them to others in a heartbeat!

ZillowVERIFIED So happy we chose Barb and her team to work with to sell our home! Buying and selling can be stressful but they really made everything so easy for us! Not only did our home sell quickly, we were able to purchase our dream home with the help of Jen - who is an absolute rockstar! She left no question unanswered and made herself available to us no matter the day or time! So grateful to have worked with them.

ZillowVERIFIED Barb is excellent and goes the extra mile! Before there were electronic methods of signing documents, she even came to the hospital, (with our grateful permission), while I was in the hospital to deliver our baby boy :) Our house sold quickly once we listed with Barb!

ZillowVERIFIED It is an absolute pleasure to write this glowing review of Barb Gallivan. There cannot be any realtor more knowledgeable, more honest, more sincerely concerned with her client or better at negotiation then Barb. She shines with ability. She is charming while being the consummate professional. She gave me superb advice about my own apartment for sale and about the contract on another property. She knew exactly how to price my apartment and how to show it. She has a vast network of real estate colleagues, which is tremendously important. I have the highest regard for her integrity. I will recommend her enthusiastically to others whenever the opportunity arises.

ZillowVERIFIED Was easy and efficient. Barb was quick to get answers and reply to any questions or concerns I had. She was on top of showings and open houses, and helped decide how to react to the market feedback and when and how much to reduce price. Kept us from overreacting and get the best price we could.

ZillowVERIFIED Sara made the process of buying our first home super easy. She was available when we had questions and answered them very quickly. Sara had invited us to a home buying seminar which Gallivan and Assoc. had put on. This helped ease some of the questions we had before we started the home buying process. I highly recommend Sara to help find your perfect home.

She's detail oriented, thinks of things to protect us during the process that never would have occurred to me, she's responsive any time of night or day, and she always has our best interests at heart.

ZillowVERIFIED I worked with a couple of team members. Their knowledge & expertise was fantastic. They listened to my needs. Worked with me on finding the best house for me both financially & architecturally. I have limited mobility & a small dog. My house is perfect for both of us. Its so easy to take him out the backdoor & there is a covered porch for me to sit. I would not hesitate to recommend Barb or Fawn to anyone.

ZillowVERIFIED I initially contacted Barb to help me find a new home after a divorce, she and Fawn not only helped me find the perfect place for me but my dad sold a house through them, we sold my grandfather's house through them and sold the house my ex and I owned through them! Each transaction went smoothly, and without issues, Barb and Fawn were both friendly, caring and made the hunt for a house fun! I would recommend Barb Gallivan and her team to anyone who is looking to sell, buy, or both!

They took care of every detail, were very responsive and definitely went above and beyond to make our home buying experience a positive and pleasurable one.

ZillowVERIFIED Selling and buying a house can be very stressful and time consuming. Barb and her team take care of the details so it doesn't take over your life. The best thing about Barb is that she listens to your situation and does not add any pressure at all----that is so nice when you are deciding on housing. She understands the natural stresses along the process of listing, looking for a house, negotiating the deal, closing deadlines, dealing with banks, and moving. Very fun and easy to work with. Barb and her team work hard for you! We are loving our new house and so glad we worked with Barb.

Review for Member: Barb Gallivan
ZillowVERIFIED My home sale through Gallivan & Associates went much better than I could ever had hoped for. They were very helpful with the prep work and listing of my home. The home sold in less than 24 hours after the listing was placed. The closing went flawlessly and I got a very fair price that was pretty close to the original asking price. I would highly recommend Gallivan & Associates to anyone that is buying or selling a home.

Review for Member: Barb Gallivan
ZillowVERIFIED If I was going to buy or sell another home, I would definitely contact Barb and her team. They sold our house in 3 days and worked with us throughout the process and after the closing of our house. We couldn't ask for a better group of professional people. Her staff kept us informed by phone or email on issues that needed to be done before closing and even helped with questions on building our new home. On a scale of 1-10, we would positively give them a 10.

ZillowVERIFIED Our listing agent, Barb Gallivan, was recommended to us by a friend that used her to sell their family home. Our experience with Barb could not have been any better. She is professional, prompt, thorough and personable. Barb answered our questions, provided referral to other services and offered suggestions on how to make the process of selling the house less stressful. My husband and I would definitely recommend Barb and her staff to those wanting a listing agent. I must add that her assistant was also professional and timely with communicating with us

She has the experience and connections to help with anything that you need during the transaction. She is very caring and helpful. She also sold the home that we owned when we purchased this one in about one month of listing it. We could not have closed that deal without her assistance.

ZillowVERIFIED Barb provided a customized approach to what our needs were and she was always willing to take the extra step to help us. Living remotely our schedules were not the most flexible but Barb always made time to meet our changing needs. She also was very honest and when she did not know the answer to a question, she was not afraid to admit it and would always follow up with a validated answer. She was personable and was able to build a trusting relationship with both of us.

ZillowVERIFIED We were put in contact with Fawn Newsom while I was in Nevada and my husband was in Champaign. Despite the distance, she made sure that we found a house that fit our family and had all the unique characteristics that I wanted in a home. The whole team was dedicated to getting us our dream home. Fawn worked incredible hours and went above and beyond for our family. She met every obstacle with grace and knowledge. It was a pleasure and an honor to work with her. We could not be more please with our home or the service we received from Fawn Newsom and Gallivan and Associates.
