I picked Barb at random to value our house. She was extremely helpful and explained everything before she gave us a valuation and we agreed to put the house up for sale. Everything moved very quickly from then. She had the photographers out in the next 2 days, an internet Ad and an Open House for the following Saturday. She had the Monday as the final day for offers, and we agreed to the offer and were blown away by the efficiency of the whole process.

Good Experience with Barb Blackhall

We had our investment house with another real estate business for approximately 8 months with no success. A friend who had purchased through Barb suggested we engage her to sell. The house had not been maintained to the expected level so there were quite a few maintenance issues. Barb assisted with the repairs etc and then went on to sell the house in a timely manner. I highly recommend Barb to anyone who is in the process of selling or purchasing a property.
