Mike Barber truly went above and beyond to get us our dream home. He was willing to answer every question, take the time to thoroughly explain anything, and make the time to ensure you had peace of mind about your choices. He was transparent about all concerns. He was honest and set expectations to a realistic standard.
I would recommend him to anyone looking for an agent! He’s timely, honest and he will make you laugh all in the process!

Michael was with us every step of the process. He was always just a phone call away. We really wanted this home and he made it happen in less than a month. I can't recommend him enough. We have used Michael three times and have been very happy.

Mike took the time to provide the education we needed to prepare for a first sale. His knowledge of the local area and the market made us feel at ease that we were working with a professional who was an expert in the business but also has his clients' best interests at heart. Mike's personal approach reduced chaotic thinking and helped calm edgy nerves. If you're looking for an agent who will explain all the steps you need to buy or sell a house and get you a great deal, I would recommend you contact Mike.

We just purchased our 3rd property with Mike Barber. He has gone the extra mile with all three properties. He has gone above and beyond for us. We've also recommended him to friends and family and they have said the same. If you're looking for someone who will go above and beyond for you he is your guy.

Mike has been our realtor for our last two houses. He’s honest, up front, and most importantly experienced. He sold our house in three days and even helped move some heavy items because my husband was in another state for work! He does more than what’s expected from a realtor and truly cares about his clients. We were approached by a lot of agents when we were ready to sell, but we will never go to anyone but Mike. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for realtor who listens and knows what he’s doing.

Mike did an excellent job! He was very communicative with what he was doing on his end, what I needed to do, and with any updates on our progress. He took care of a lot of the work and explained anything I didn't fully understand as he did it. As a first time property buyer, he made the whole process very simple, efficient and stress free!

I absolutely recommend Mike Barber to handle all of your real estate needs. He is extremely thorough, reliable, and full of resources. He is always quick to return a call or text, follows up on leads, and sends appropriate listings to match your search criteria. He went above and beyond for me on pulling county records and permits for a property I was looking at. You will not be disappointed when you work with Mike!

We have worked with Michael on the purchase and sale of several properties. He is through, candid, ethical and "really good". He goes above and beyond what the typical realtor would do regarding ,not only the transaction, but help and support with technical, regulatory, and improvement issues. He is one of the few realtors I have dealt with that places our needs above getting the transaction done. He brings up issues and disclosures that are important when making a decision on a property.
