    To say Barb has been amazing to work with, would be an understatement. My husband and I have had Barb as our realtor for both buying and selling property. They are very different positions and she walked us through both. Barb is incredibly knowledgeable about her industry; housing market, trending and staging, pricing, local and area codes/guidelines, contracts, and negotiating. We recently sold our home, because we had found our aEURoenewaEUR? home project! Barb helped us with preparing the house, staging recommendations, and of course the right price. We were going to list for a lot less, but we trusted Barb. While selling in an uncertain market, we ended up with three full price offers to choose from!Simultaneously, we were also on the buyers end of purchasing our new house. She effortlessly coordinated both selling and buying. She helped us with inspections, negotiations, and understanding all of the paperwork in between. Everything went smoothly from sale to closing day. I would highly recommend Barb because of her outstanding knowledge of her field, ethical integrity, and she was just so kind and fun to work with! We plan on continuing business with her in the future. We consider Barb more than a realtor; We consider her a friend!

    Barbara was excellent in every aspect in the sale of our old home and the purchase of our new home. She came in to our old home, expressed what we could do to resolve any issues, gave us advice on how to sell it, and walked us through the process of selling it. In addition,l she helped us close on a new home, advised us on what we should do, and gave us confidence that we could do it. We were very green in all of this and having Barbara was a God send. She also was diligent though she was going through a difficult time personally. Thank you Barbara for all that you did!

    Barbara Markham is an absolute Professional. She artfully photographed the best features of our home, taking 37 incredible photographs of our home's best interior and exterior features. Spot-on Market analysis ensured we received full value for our home. Always available to answer our questions, she skillfully guided us through the entire listing/negotiating/selling process. Barbara is without a doubt the "ABSOLUTE BEST" Realtor we have ever had the pleasure of doing business with.

    My husband and I were first time home buyers and I'm convinced we couldn't have made it through this process without Barbara! We've read a lot and done a lot of research the past two yeaars, on the home process, so we anticipated a stressful process.... but than we met Barbara! Barbara walked us through our first home buying process, explaining everything in detail, with patience and answering questions we had, sometimes the same questions. And from all the real estate agents my husband and I met, Barbara is also, I believe, one of the last ethical real estate sales professionals around. With Barbara, you can expect honest, patient and extremely knowledgable advice and feedback. She's helped us purchase our dream home and we're so incredibly happy!!! We're very honored and proud to share this moment with her, as well as our family and friends! Thank you Barb, for helping us out, for being you, for walking us through what was supposed to be a stressful process, and turned out to be a real pleasant and enjoyable experience! Thank you for our first home, our forever home :)
