ReviewPat was the right choice for us because of his vast knowledge of the area and expertise in all things Real Estate. He stays current on trends and kept us in the loop on any changes or new information that developed at all the times. We always felt he had our best interest at heart. His team is hardworking as well and available to provide assistance whenever requested. Great experience and he got the job done in a very challenging sales environment.

ReviewPat Barton and his SBH team are outstanding! Pat's personal style is low key but extremely effective. The staging and showing experience was amazing. The still and aerial photography used for marketing our home was well beyond our expectations. Also, due to Pat's long experience in Hampton Roads he was able to recommend contractors to address every staging or Home Inspection requirement during the sale process. The tools that Pat provided to us for our new home search were also very effective and timely. Although it took us awhile to find the right house for us Pat stuck with us and provided all the information we needed to make the right choice. Thank You Pat & the entire SBH Team!

ReviewIt was a pleasure to work with Pat and his team on the sale of our rental home in Sandbridge. Everything was handled in a very professional manner, and Pat is very knowledgeable of the local market and pricing trends. Pat's team did a superb job staging our house and in creating a nice portfolio of photos and video. This was our second home in Sandbridge that Pat and his team helped us sell. Thanks again!

ReviewAt first I tried to sell my property myself and then was referred to Pat. It just felt like the right move from the first time we met. A professional video started things off along with a few suggested action items. Pat was there every step of the process and showed our farm to quite a few interested parties. We negotiated several offers and were given excellent advice throughout the process. There were a number of challenges that had nothing to do with Pat. After quite an adventure we successfully closed and my wife and I could not be more pleased with our choice of Pat Barton and would not hesitate to recommend Pat and his very capable staff!

ReviewOur experience with Pat Barton exceeded our expectations. He was always quick to answer our questions, and he guided us through every step of selling and buying our homes. We really enjoyed the electronic signature feature that Pat uses regularly through email. It made the process easy even with our busy schedules. I would highly recommend Pat to anyone wanting to buy/sell!

Review" Pat Barton is the goto guy for buying and selling real estate in Tidewater. He helped my family find the perfect home for us and at a great price. Anyone who wants to buy or sell should immediately contact Pat. He goes above and beyond. His knowledge of the area is second to none as he is a lifelong resident of Sandbridge!"

ReviewPat was referred to us by Sandbridge locals after trying out two other disastrous realtors. As absentee owners of a rental property, we needed someone we could trust and who would advise us if the house needed attention. We found that in Pat. He found us the right buyer, at the right time, and at the price we wanted. Sandbridge is a unique market and going with Pat was the best decision we made. No hesitation in recommending him!

ReviewIf you're looking to buy or sell, go with the best. Pat's laid back, calming demeanor, combined with his expertise and work ethos reduce the stress associated with home buying.Pat had 2 offers on our home within 9 days of listing and we sold for $1k under the asking price. Pat has a solid team supporting him and network within the area. Pat had a designer come in to select paint colors, counters, and other updates that would sell the house. He had a professional photographer take excellent photos. He knows how to use technology to market the house and make selling convenient for the client. He had a list of inexpensive and reliable contractors. We had 2 offers in 9 days and closed within less than 60!When we looked to purchase a house, he provided us with a wide range of options. There was zero sales pressure. When we found a home, Pat had a network of folks to make closing go as smoothly as possible.Buying and selling a house can be a stressful experience. Pat has a laid back demeanor, you'd never know how hard he is working behind the scenes to make things happen. Pat did everything in his power to alleviate concern, stress, and frustration during both processes. We are thrilled with our new home.

ReviewPat knows the Virginia Beach real estate area from top to bottom. He was extremely helpful in completing and closing a very complex transaction on a foreclosed ocean front property. The purchase process extended over a considerable period of time and Pat was very responsive and offered excellent counsel at every step of the purchase negotiations.I highly recommend Pat to anyone purchasing in the Virginia Beach area. He and his highly professional office staff are truly exceptional.

ReviewPat Barton is extremely professional and impressive. He truly knows the market and is by far the best realtor we have worked with over the years. His understanding of the process and knowledge made our experience selling our home much easier than it would have most likely been with any other realtor. Pat is a great communicator. He is able to bring all parties together and guide everyone to the final goal of either selling or buying a home. He knows VB. He really understands the market, knows the history of the area and on top of it all is just a really nice person. I didn't know Pat prior to selling our home nor have I ever written anything on Zillow, but I feel that he and his team deserve more accolades than I can really give them here.

ReviewPat is a great realtor. Why? Because he made a somewhat difficult selling situation basically a stress-free experience. His communication skills and attention to detail are top-notch! Pat's knowledge of the market and willingness to go the extra mile made all the difference for us. He is respectful, kind, personable, understanding, and honest. Pat worked with me to make the sale of our condo a win-win for all parties. He stayed with me the entire process; from start to finish. I never once wondered what to do or questioned if everything was being cared for properly. The entire time working with Pat I felt confident that he was the right person to list our place. If you need to sell, I highly recommend Pat Barton.

ReviewPat Barton is an excellent agent. We have worked with many other agents in other markets, and he is the best agent we have worked with! He is full service. We we were not living in the house, and in fact out of the state. Pat helped a tremendous amount to coordinate or get the required items from the inspection list completed. He is pleasant, responsive and a great negotiator. Thank you Pat and team!!

ReviewWhen it comes to any professional reviews, I believe it is best to leave comments free of emotional or preferential treatment. With Pat, this is truly not possible. Pat is very professional but Pat is also an incredibly caring, personal, and compassionate realtor. We had a very difficult closing due to circumstances outside of Pat's control, but Pat walked with us every single step of the way. Pat made us feel like we were his most important clients, if not his only clients. I know this is not the case and we certainly were NOT his most lucrative clients, but you never would have known that. Pat treated us like he was going to receive the commission of a lifetime and I know we were on the low end. Pat is a great realtor because he loves what he does but also because he cares so much for the people he serves. I would recommend Pat to anyone looking for real estate in this area. He is a magnificent negotiator and he is honest every step of the way. Even when it is tough to be honest about a tough situation, Pat will be honest and explain how best to overcome the obstacles you are facing. Pat is incredibly knowledgable about the local market and real estate in general. I didn't know Pat when we started looking at houses in this area, but now I hope to continue to know Pat and call him my friend. Pat is a great realtor, but Pat is also an incredibly great person.

ReviewWe highly recommend Pat. We had tried to sell for 4 years off and on, but Pat made it happen. He sat w/us often, guided us w/pricing for the market, made suggestions as how to improve access to the house, and KEPT re-assuring us the 'house would sell'. He managed to find the buyer by holding an open house when we didn't think such a thing was possible. And then he guided us though the contract process, using imaginative tools to bring the deal together. We HIGHLY recommend him!

ReviewWhen we decided to buy a home in Sandbridge, picking an agent to help us in our search was a no brainer. Pat Barton, by reputation alone, was our top choice. He understands how unique a market this coastal community is and his advice to us during our search and subsequent purchase made a tremendous difference. He is professional, quick to respond, knows this market extremely well, is respected by the community, and is great to work with. We highly recommend Pat Barton.

ReviewPat was very professional and knowledgeable about the process of buying and selling. He negotiated a fair price when we bought our dream home and also when we sold our house we got the top selling price in the area. Both processes went smoothly. I would recommend Pat Barton as a realtor. My husband and I are very pleased with our decision to use Pat as our realtor.

ReviewPat helped us purchase a home in Sandbridge in March of 2015. He was extremely professional, easy to work with, very helpful in answering all questions. His local knowledge and contacts with the rental management companies and service providers made the purchase of our first rental property easier than we every imagined. I would recommend Pat to anyone looking for a skilled professional.

ReviewMy husband and I are seniors and over the years we have bought, sold and advertised five or six homes and each time we used a real estate agency. Never in all of those years have we ever experienced an agent who was as informative, efficient and effective as Pat Barton. When we called him and he didn't answer, we received a call-back extremely quickly. He was always there to answer a question or help us in any way. Pat Barton is absolutely the best!

ReviewPat represented us on both the purchase and sale side. He did a fantastic job in identifying what we were looking for and directing us only to homes we would be interested in and not wasting our time. When it came time to purchase Pat had a good understanding of what the seller was looking for and helped us get as good of a deal as possible.On the sale side, Pat provided an excellent perspective of where the market was and helped us price the house effectively. We had an offer within 30 days of listing. He helped us work through the process and sell our house very rapidly.Pat is easy to deal with because he spends the time to understand your needs and provides very little pressure until you are comfortable to move. He has an excellent understanding of the local market which cuts down on time and effort on your part. Overall we had an excellent experience working with Pat.

ReviewPat has a wealth of knowledge about all things Sandbridge, well above and beyond just knowldege of the real estate market, which he also knows very well. He has a realtively low key approach, was nevery pushy, and provided my wife and I with everything we needed to find a great home in Sandbridge Beach. His staff made the closing run very smoothly, and he also had great recommendations for our mortgage and insurance needs. You can't do better than Pat Barton if you are house-hunting in Sandbridge.

ReviewPat is the real deal when it comes to Sanbridge real estate. Having grown up in Sanbridge Pat knows every nuance to this unique community. We have and will continue to recommend Pat Barton to all of our friends interested in purchasing residential or investment property in Sanbridge.Our buying experience with Pat was excellent. He took the time to show us several properties and never pushed us towards a speedy decision. At the end of our search we concluded that buying a vacant lot and building was the right way to go. Obviously not as big of a closing for Pat but he was all smiles that we got the deal we were hoping for. Pat definitely puts his clients' best interest in front of his own.

ReviewPat went above and beyond the call of duty to help my wife and I find our home in Virginia Beach. We were not from this area and yet he was available whenever we needed him to show houses and recommend great neighborhoods. Pat is great at his job and highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell homes!

ReviewPat patiently allowed me to kick tires on Sandbridge Beach properties for more than six years before I decided on a foreclosure property that required him to navigate an online bidding process that was outsourced, along with most of the follow-up issues leading to closing, to India. He never lost his relentless attention to detail and gregarious demeanor, systematically bringing the process to conclusion. As a result, I'm a Sandbridge homeowner. Though he handles all of Virginia Beach, he's the definitive real estate expert and ambassador for the special place that is Sandbridge

ReviewPat Barton is the most outstanding real estate professional we have ever worked with. As out of state buyers, we relied heavily on Pat to manage the process, provide market insights, and facilitate communication. He is a proactive problem solver who anticipated our needs and delivered a level of service that was truly exceptional and above and beyond our expectations. When a list minute issue could have derailed our transaction, Pat didn't hesitate to offer up a solution and gain alignment with the sellers to keep everything on track. With Pat on your side, you are in great hands! Derek & Mindy, Fort Wayne, Ind.
