Why Work With Us?

“Barrie was a lifesaver in a hard situation, and I am eternally grateful she was my Realtor. Last fall I had to put my parents in assisted living and sell their Brookline home, and Barrie was supportive through the whole process. She was diligent in finding us a number of comparable properties to figure out a good asking price, and really talked with me about what our priorities and options were out of concern for us, not what would be an easy sale for her. We sold for above asking, and when we hit a snag of needing to bring the house up to fire code, Barrie was right on it.

“She also was a great resource for finding people to help us clear out the house and prepare it for showing. Barrie is always honest and knowledgeable, and really looks out for her clients; I can't recommend her enough."

“Barrie was instrumental in helping us find and buy our first home. We told her what we were looking for and she found us the perfect house. She was kind, encouraging and responsive throughout the entire process, making sure we were always prepared for and comfortable with the next step well ahead of time. In addition to the buying process, Barrie has continued to be in touch helping us find local contractors and answering any questions we have about homeownership.

“We can't recommend her highly enough to anyone looking to find the perfect home!”

"I typically don't write reviews of companies and/or professionals but Barrie Wheeler did such a phenomenal job for us that I couldn't pass up the opportunity to praise her. My husband and I started looking for our first home this past winter (January 2017) in the aggressive Boston market. I can honestly say that without Barrie, we never would have found a home to call our own. She oftentimes reached out to us after normal work hours, wrote us personalized emails with listings she thought we would like, and typically screened properties in person before telling us to view them ourselves. Once we found a home we loved, she effortlessly walked us through what is clearly a complex process. I could not be happier that we used Barrie to find and purchase our first home. If you are looking for a highly professional and compassionate real estate broker, contact Barrie. There is no one better than her."

“Barrie was phenomenal in helping us buy our home. We were buying a home from across the country and therefore depended on Barrie's knowledge, responsiveness and support. She spent days driving me around and getting to know what we were looking for in a home and community. Because we were far away, we relied on Barrie to coordinate and attend various inspections and she masterfully used the information gathered in these inspections to negotiate the sales price to reflect the work that needed to be done. Barrie's nature is calm, honest and insightful; I cannot think of a Realtor I'd rather have helping me buy my first home.”

"It was a great pleasure working with Barrie from start to finish. She was incredibly patient, bearing with us over a 4+ year period while we endlessly debated and dithered over which new townhouse to purchase and in which town. She was tolerant through several false starts and shifts in our priorities. 

“Once we found the right place, she helped us through the emotionally fraught process of preparing and selling our gorgeous old house in which we had lived for almost 25 years. Throughout, she was calm, understanding and empathetic. And she is extremely knowledgeable. I wish everyone could have a such a terrific Realtor.”

"We cannot say enough about how much we enjoyed working with Barrie Wheeler in the process of buying our new home in Auburndale.  She helped us navigate the fast-paced Newton real estate market in a way that was warm, caring and fun.  She was patient, responsive and extremely knowledgeable.  Her advice was consistently spot-on.  We highly recommend Barrie to anyone in the area looking to buy or sell a home.”

“Barrie Wheeler is a consummate professional. I have worked with Barrie twice now. Once as a buyer (my first home) and once as a seller.  Both times she was able to help me negotiate great deals. She knows the market very well and handles all the nitty gritty details with grace and ease. She also has a referral network of other excellent professionals (lawyers, mortgage brokers) who you can trust to get the job done well. When you are dealing with buying and selling real estate, especially your home, you want to feel as safe and secure as possible. Barrie always made me feel like I was in the best hands. I recommend her without reservation.”

"I highly recommend Barrie Wheeler to sell or buy your home. Barrie understands the stress involved in the process. I had sold my home and had to rent a room until I found a condo. Barrie jumped in and, in spite of a slow winter market, went above and beyond to find me places to view. Eventually, Barrie sent letters to all the owners of several buildings she thought would work well for my needs and explained that she had a motivated client ready to purchase quickly. This worked!

“Barrie has an amazing ability to know her clients’ needs and personality, in addition to all the financial and logistical factors.  In very short order, I felt I had found a very caring and competent professional who understood me, was willing to work very hard to find me a new home, and had the compassion and patience to ease much of my anxiety.”

“We are very thankful that we had the opportunity to work with Barrie.  She sold our condo in Newton while we relocated to Atlanta.  She was absolutely amazing and was in constant communication with us.  She made us feel at ease and completely confident at the sale of our home at all times.  During a time that can be stressful, especially since we were already in Atlanta, she kept us up to date daily on the progress of our home. 

“We were very impressed with her ambition, passion and patience.  We feel very blessed and fortunate that Barrie Wheeler was our Realtor during this time.  Thank you, Barrie!”

“We first met Barrie through our real estate attorney who recommended her highly and. from our first meeting, we found Barrie to be highly professional, caring, knowledgeable and accurate with all her assessments. 

“After being in our home for over 30 years, the task of preparing the house to be sold was overwhelming, but Barrie was very calming and helpful in setting the appropriate timetable and making suggestions. She thoroughly explained the current market and what we could expect to happen and she was right on target. 

“During the entire sales process through closing, Barrie was very responsive to all our questions and concerns and made sure all the details were successfully completed. Barrie truly cares about and for her clients and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.”
