ZillowVERIFIEDHe did the best ever communication was very much on point and called or texted. Was there holding my hand all the way thru the experience. Was able to get my house sold the first weekend it was on the market and I would recommend him to anyone for sure. The pics he was able to get to put house on the market were phenomenal as well. Made me almost wanna buy my own house back.

ZillowVERIFIED Corey helped me get familiar with neighborhoods that would work for my needs. He steered me through the breakdown of one contract due to misinformation in the listing and helped me find a better home in a community that's a great match for me.

ZillowVERIFIED Corey was extremely helpful with facilitating the purchase of our new home in Illinois. We moved from Florida and needed a fast sale. With his experience in the area and his connections, he was able to find us a beautiful home that fit our families needs as well as get us the fastest possible sale so our family wasnt stranded for long. We love our new home and neighborhood and couldnt have done that without Corey. Highly recommend!!

ZillowVERIFIED Corey did an amazing job helping my family find a home and walk us through the process of buying in Illinois. Our family moved from Florida and we were unable to visit the houses prior to arriving, but Corey made it happen with doing virtual tours for us. He also described the entire buying process in detail so we knew the differences between Illinois and Florida. We are so thankful we got to work with him! I recommend him hands down!

Review for Member: Corey Barker
ZillowVERIFIED Corey Barker's warmth and broad knowledge stand out among the other realtors we met. He had a great sense of who we are, what we needed, and set us at ease from our worries. Early on, he provided us with a thorough education of both selling and buying. Taking Corey's advice, we had a photographer, painter, and repair people who helped our home attract a good buyer just days after listing. He selected the best homes for us to consider for purchase, based on our needs and preferences. Corey represented us well in our negotiations. A conversation with Corey Barker is a GREAT place to start as you consider your next home and community. Highly Recommend.

ZillowVERIFIED Corey was wonderful. Corey cares about the people he's representing and wants to make sure they find the best place for them. Corey's honest right from the jump, tells it like it is, and makes sure you get the best deal. He also knows a great home when he sees one. Over the few that my wife and I were looking at during our home buying journey, he had us on the right path the whole time.

ZillowVERIFIED Corey was absolutely outstanding and great to work with. He has excellent expertise and enjoys doing everything he can to help his clients. He has a true passion for his job. Despite multiple individuals on seller side being out of town and out of the country, Corey was able to broker negotiations that required multiple follow ups across multiple days in order to secure contract agreement for the property I purchased.

ZillowVERIFIED Corey did a great job, sold our house in 4 days. The prep work and support was exceptional. He made the home look fantastic and we received 1000 of views on the real estate apps. Outstanding pictures and guidance made the process less stressful and would use him again if I wanted to by or sell. Corey worked with the local real estate professionals and all the showing went off with out a hitch.

ZillowVERIFIED Corey made buying a home simple as possible I had doubts because we were on another coast but with Coreys knowledge of the area and years of experience I dont think we could have made a better choice with legend Corey Barker!!!! Stayed in constant communication, always let us know when things changed good or bad. Explains every aspect of home buying you can think of and if he doesnt know which he seemed to always knows, he will get the answer to your questions with all the information and resources he has. Corey set the bar high for sure.

ZillowVERIFIED Corey was a pleasure to work with and his expertise proved very valuable when looking at different homes and guiding me to finding a perfect home for me and my family. It took 6 month for me to the "one", and Corey was very patient with me as I can be super picky. Even after the sale Corey was there to assist and recommend best professionals to work with throughout the whole process. Thanks to Corey buying a home was a fantastic experience

ZillowVERIFIED Corey came recommended to me from a family member who purchased a home and sold a home with him. I am glad that I went with him. I have sold a house in the past and my experience with Corey was a night and day difference. Corey was very knowledgeable, pleasant, transparent, and confident. Corey has an extensive resume, and it showed throughout my experience with him. He, and his team, worked to make sure my home was staged properly to get a fair price as quickly as possible. Corey was very involved during the entire selling process and made sure I was confident with every decision that was made. I would highly recommend Corey to any prospective seller/buyer. Thank you, Corey!

ZillowVERIFIED Amazing experience working with Corey! He was a knight in shining armor after another agent couldnt sell our home. Due to his work ethic our home had a fair offer within 2 weeks. He walked us through every step. We had already moved out of state. I will never forget him and will tell everyone we know about the amazing experience we had with him. My husband and I will miss our talks with him. He makes it easy on you. He works tirelessly. What a true gentleman! If you are lucky enough to work with Corey you wont regret it. He was heaven sent!

Review for Member: Corey Barker
ZillowVERIFIED It was a great pleasure working with Cory in selling our house in record time with superb results: we went to contract in 2 days with 8 offers, 3-4 serious. The final result was above our target. Where experience and expertise matter, Cory Barker has it all - bar none. His abilities and experience were invaluable in our being able to navigate a very difficult and dynamic market place and come out with maximum value for our home. From the get-go, Cory presented us with clear aEUR" and accurate - assessments of the market, our home and what to expect. We very much appreciated his fair, straight forward approach to pricing and commissions et al. We interviewed others where we would have had to haggle the fees down to known industry standards. With Cory, it was always fair and above board in all his dealings. Upon beginning, he wasted no time in doing all he could to help us to get ready. His team came in immediately to advise with staging and do the photography. We had an excellent stable of resources through Cory to identify what was needed and then fix, clean accordingly: all done quickly and affordably. Throughout the process, Cory was always hands-on and available. We only worked directly with Cory. Cory, as well, is also very affable and pleasant to be with aEUR" much needed in a very stressful process. We whole-heartedly recommend using Cory and his team to anyone looking to buy or sell.

ZillowVERIFIED Corey does it all!! He is professional, kind and very gracious in everything he does. Corey is always in your corner and is very intune to your needs. He never gives up looking for your perfect place. He went above and beyond with my family and we consider him family now! It took us two years to find the perfect place for our son. He never wavered in letting us know what was out there and available. Corey walked our son through the whole process. His communication with us was straight forward and he was always available to help us. I wouldn't use anyone else.

Review for Member: Corey Barker
ZillowVERIFIED Corey is an amazing agent that helps you every step of the way! He started our engagement with explaining who he is, who his company is, his work ethic, and everything he would do to ensure we have a smooth experience selling our home. He started with showing us all the details of the comparable homes in our area. Once we agreed on our price, he worked his magic with staging our home and using extensive descriptions highlighting all the details and upgrades to our home that would help a buyer choose our home. Corey set up signs in every room of the house to remind a buyer of every item in that room that was an upgrade or feature that set our house apart from all the others. Corey sold our house the first day it went on the market to the first buyer that looked at our house. We were offered more than our asking price! Corey is an extremely friendly and caring person who loves his job. It was an absolute pleasure working with him. I would recommend Corey for your real estate needs in a heartbeat. Thanks again Corey!

Review for Member: Corey Barker
ZillowVERIFIED We met with quite a few agents prior to selecting Corey. All of the agents put a price on the sale quite a bit less than Corey did. Corey also had a sale strategy that likely helped with the closing price. Corey, his staging team and attorney recommendation, were all great and helped make this far less burdensome a process than (I assume) is typical.

ZillowVERIFIED I've been working with Corey for about 6 years from purchasing my first home and recently selling my home and I couldn't be more impressed with the level of service I received. Recently selling my home from our initial consultation to the closing day, Corey was right by my side throughout the entire process. He has always demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and a genuine commitment to helping me achieve my goals. He took the time to understand my needs and concerns, and his communication throughout the entire process was outstanding. Corey went above and beyond to market my home effectively, utilizing a variety of strategies to attract potential buyers. His attention to detail in presenting my property truly made it stand out in the market. What impressed me most was Corey's negotiation skills. He worked tirelessly to secure the best possible price for my home, and their expertise in navigating the complexities of the selling process was invaluable. Thanks to Corey's dedication and hard work, my home sold quickly and for a fantastic price. I went on the market on a Friday and was under contract on my home the next day. I couldn't have asked for a better outcome! I wholeheartedly recommend Corey to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate. His professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care for his clients make them a standout in the industry. Thank you for making the selling process such a smooth and rewarding experience! Thank you for everything you do for families that looking to purchase or sell their homes.
