Why Work With Us?
Here's what our satisfied customers are saying about us:
"Barrie was a great resource both in selling and buying. Her knowledge of the market is right on. She is very professional, timely, and makes a very hectic process simpler. Needless to say, I highly recommend Barrie."
-- Rasha A., May 2013
"I had the great pleasure of working with Barrie when I moved to Boston. I was looking to buy a house in Brookline and a friend recommended her. During the first interview I realized that Barrie was very knowledgeable of the region and the real estate market. In addition, she was honest, flexible and easy to work with. Barrie listened very carefully to understand my personal situation and showed me a significant number of properties for sale to find the best possible balance with a house that fitted my needs. Once we found the right deal, Barrie assembled a team with inspector, attorney and loan agent that worked very effectively toward the closing. Barrie is, without any doubt, the best real estate agent I have worked with and recommend her without reservation."
-- Juan Carlos A., May 2013
“Barrie is the perfect partner for anyone buying or selling a home. She helped us do both, and it was such a pleasure to work with her. She has deep knowledge of the market and extensive experience in all kinds of situations. She is also a wonderful, thoughtful person, and made us feel completely at ease during what could have been a very stressful transition for our family. I recommend her very highly, she is truly outstanding!”
-- Meredith K., February 2013
"Barrie demonstrated high integrity and exceptional customer service as both a seller's agent when we sold and a buyer's agent when we bought. She knows the Newton and Brookline markets inside and out and was a reassuring presence during what is always a stressful process. Highly recommended."
-- Paula H., February 2013
“Barrie – the best combination of knowledge, intelligence, patience, and wit. She took every effort in understanding our requirements of a single-family home and its neighborhood, at times also knocking sense into me when I went overboard with my requirements in a place like Newton. With every house she showed us, she did all the research around it and presented it to us with all its known pros and cons. She is not one of those pressing agents who won’t give you space to breath or think; she is the exact opposite of that. Her advice and negotiating skills proved very valuable to us in ultimately getting us the home we were looking for. I highly recommend Barrie for your real estate needs.”
-- Roshni K., February 2013
“Upon the recommendation of friends, my husband and I used Barrie when we purchased our first home in Newton. We have since recommended her to many of our friends. Barrie is extremely bright, patient, and honest--she will not push you to purchase a home. At the same time, Barrie knows how to be aggressive in multiple offer situations, which can be critical in the greater Boston area. We won out in a competitive bidding situation where we suspect we did not make the highest offer. The sellers later told us that our offer was the ‘most attractive’ in other ways (and they praised Barrie for her skill in crafting the offer). In addition, Barrie is very aggressive at getting her clients access to see properties as soon as they hit the market. This is essential in competitive markets like Newton, Brookline, etc.”
-- Lisa R., September 2012
"Barrie was everything I might have hoped for - and a little more. It was a difficult decision to sell a 5-bedroom house that had been our family home until the death of my wife from cancer. Barrie was wise and compassionate, and brought her deep knowledge of the process with understanding for our circumstances. She was a constant, unobtrusive presence, willing to help with all matters that sprung up, both large and small. Her sense of pricing and her follow-through with potential buyers was exemplary. The process of clearing out years of accumulated possessions was inevitably difficult; she helped make it at least manageable. We are deeply grateful to her and would commend her to anyone entering this challenging process."
-- Sami B., November 2024
"Barrie is an incredible Realtor! As first-time homebuyers, we were very intimidated by the entire process, but Barrie guided us every step of the way. She is incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and made everything feel like a breeze.
"Thanks to her expertise and guidance, our offer was accepted over six others in a highly competitive situation. Her dedication and strategic approach gave us confidence throughout the process.
"Our new home is so much more than we ever expected, and we couldn't have done it without her. We are beyond grateful for all of her hard work and support, and we highly recommend Barrie to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!"
