    I had a great experience buying a home with Walker Barnes. Walker was incredible knowledgeable, flexible, and made the process seamless. Like others who have worked with Walker, his kindness and generosity during the process led to us keeping in contact and becoming friends outside of the purchasing experience! I highly recommend Walker for anyone looking to purchase a home in this area.

    Weve had the pleasure of working with Walker for two home transactions, once as buyers and again as sellers, and we couldnt have asked for a better experience either time. Walker is patient, knowledgeable, and truly invested in his clients. He has a great ability to build strong relationships with others in the industry, which helped make both of our transactions smooth and stress-free. Even when we werent actively buying or selling, hes been generous with his time and advice, always willing to answer questions or talk through anything related to real estate. We highly recommend Walker to anyone looking for a realtor who combines expertise with genuine care and support.

    We enjoyed working with Walker Barnes to buy not one but 2 homes! We bought our townhouse with him when we were engaged and a few years later when we were ready for a larger space, we gladly reached out to him again to purchase our current family home! The purchasing process for our family home included some complicated negotiations with the county and sellers to make some large updates to the property and he handled everything very professionally! He is kind, responsive and professional and wed happily work with Walker again in the future. If youre looking for a place to call home in the Washtenaw county area, wed gladly recommend him to help you find the right fit!

    Walker was a delight to work with. Not only is he personable and funny, but he strives to find the perfect home-fit for the families that entrust themselves to his knowledge and intuition. If we ever find ourselves in need of a home again, hell be the only realtor we contact.
