Testimonials

It's not what I say that matters most. It's what you say.

I've had the good fortune to personally help hundreds of people buy and sell real estate. But nothing I can say about how I work, or the professional experience I can share with you, is as valuable as hearing directly from past clients. At one time, all of my clients were in your shoes researching agents and wondering, Should I hire Barbara Balossi? Scroll down to read notes from a handful of the great people I've worked with over the years.

"I wish there was a 10-star button to press for Barbara because she is an agent that operates in an entirely different league of excellence. We had a tough situation to manage: a corporate relocation, a small window of time to buy/move, no familiarity with the region, and an extremely competitive real estate environment of lim..." "I wish there was a 10-star button to press for Barbara because she is an agent that operates in an entirely different league of excellence. We had a tough situation to manage: a corporate relocation, a small window of time to buy/move, no familiarity with the region, and an extremely competitive real estate environment of limited inventory/aggressive buyers/rapidly rising interest rates. Barbara to the rescue. Barbara impressed us with her local knowledge; extraordinary organizational and communication skills; and a game plan for helping us get familiar with Orange County. When we found "the one", she delivered superb negotiation skills, agent-to-agent relationships, and contract-writing advice. Barbara's help didn't end once we signed on the dotted line. She has continued to help us with the hard work of getting settled into our new home and even delivered us the handiest binder of all our real estate transaction paperwork we will need for taxes. Barbara is an exemplar agent and human. Trustworthy, honest, kind, and 100% out to represent her clients' interests. We cannot recommend her highly enough and we wish all agents were as wonderful as Barbara."

During that time, my housing needs and life situation changed more than once. She not only adjusted to the turbulence like a true professional but with a unique sense of kindness and patience. She was quick to point out over-priced properties and offer calm advice in the heat of the bidding process. And when the home I ultimately purchased hit the market, she recognized its suitability immediately, directed me toward it that day, and negotiated a winning bid (there were multiple on the property by the end of its first day on the market). I am now in the process of moving in, and absolutely love it and am only sorry that I won't be touring homes with Barbara every couple of weeks!"

"We hired Barbara after having a challenging experience with another listing agent. I can’t tell you how happy we are that we made the shift. You know selling or buying a home is a huge decision.

"We hired Barbara after having a challenging experience with another listing agent. I can’t tell you how happy we are that we made the shift. You know selling or buying a home is a huge decision. It’s not only a great financial decision. It’s also a really big emotional decision. I think what we found working with Barbara is not only was she terrific at understanding how to value our home, and how to market our home, but she also really understands the human side of home purchasing and selling. Barbara is tremendously empathetic, really thoughtful, really smart, followed through tremendously, and really gave our property the time and attention it needed to get it sold in actually a really challenging market. We can’t think of a better Realtor® to work with than Barbara."

"Barbara Balossi was our Realtor® for when we sold our first house and when we bought our second house.

We loved working with Barbara because she is super competent and confident and knowledgeable and professional, but she’s also warm and down-to-earth and understanding and reassured us of all of our fears. She helped us price our house right. We were actually able to get three offers the first hour it was on the market. We got above our asking price. She helped us ask good questions when we were buying our next house. We were just super grateful for her hard work and accessibility and knowledge that gave us a lot of confidence in selling and buying our houses."
