As a commercial real estate agent for 24 years in Silicon Valley, my wife and I along with other family members have used The Barbics on four real estate transactions - each was a success. We highly recommend them, here's why . . . As a team, they are diversified in their skill sets - very knowledgeable of the market, they constantly keep their clients informed of new properties coming to market and prevailing trends; are always very professional, patient and understanding during each step of the process.
The Barbics maintain extremely high standards of advocacy and objectivity throughout the entire process, and are very professional and patient during the critical negotiation periods. Never feeling pushed, you will always make the final decision on your terms.
Individually and collectively, they are friendly, very well respected and diligent in maintaining excellent working relationships within the local brokerage community and with their past clients. This has been our experience four times over and I welcome your call to further discuss our experiences with their services.

It is only too rare that I take the time to write and thank someone for a wonderful combination of professionalism and personal attention to our real estate transactions. It is even rarer that I can find someone who handles them as well as you do.
We have bought and sold properties with you ranging in size from a single family residence for our son to a seven unit apartment for investment, and you have handled them in a manner that made the process efficient, understandable and seamless.
I presume that we are like most people in that a real estate transaction to us is still a big deal, and they have a tendency to be the most important part of our days for some period of time. You make it a very important part of your days during the transaction too, and it is your keeping our interests on the front burner that adds so much value to dealing with you. We appreciate your services and indeed count you as good friends.

We can not thank the Barbics enough for there extreme care in selling our home. Everything was explained extensively and we felt comfortable and informed through out the whole transaction. Thank You to all of the Barbic Team

My fiancé and I were looking to buy our first home. We had met with a handful of real estate agents that left us disappointed. Michele and Alan took the time to get to know us. They helped us find a place that we loved (and still do). They even stuck with us through all of the contingencies--like getting a new septic tank and helping us shovel sand when the inspector demanded more. We fully intend to use "The Barbics" for every house we buy... too bad we are so happy that we have no intention of moving. Michele and Alan are quality people who we are glad to count as friends. We refer anyone with real estate questions to them. And so should you.

The Barbics worked so effectively as a team to address every aspect of the home purchase process from helping us to navigate all that fine print to dealing with our fears as first time homebuyers. I recommend them to everyone I know who is interested in purchasing a home!

Selling a home can be fraught with a lot of complicated decisions. In our effort to select a realtor who would help us with the process we solicited five realtors, including realtors we had worked with in the past. Our solicitation included a series of questions and face-to-face discussions with each realtor. Alan & Michele were selected based on the most complete and professional looking proposal, as well as their excellent response to our questions and concerns.
It was an outstanding choice. We sold our home faster than expected, which we attribute to the superior performance of the whole Barbic team. All Phases of the sale----from preparation through the many open houses they hosted to final negotiations and closing went smoothly. The Barbic team was exceptionally professional, and provided us with a feeling of confidence throughout the entire process. Their eagerness and knowledge about what it took to sell our property definitely paid off.
True, selling your home can be tough, but with the Barbic team it was as easy as it gets. We couldn't be more pleased. We highly recommend The Barbics.
