Barb Riley

Barb Riley works magic. It isn't often one naively chooses a rep and lands the industry leader, yet through spectacular luck, a referral led me to Barb. As a newcomer and first-time buyer with nuanced needs, my search initially began in frustration with a mediocre professional. Though well intentioned, she lacked a quality that Barb Riley possesses in excess - possibly due to Barb's 40+ years’ experience and impressive background. I call it artistry, though I seldom hear realty described as an art form. When I refer people to Barb now, I urge high expectations because I know “Barb gets it done”. From day 1, she showed an ability to "absorb" my needs and incorporate her imagination and foresight. I was a tough customer, yet not a single showing lacked serious potential - which was a first for me. Each day, I received emails showing properties handpicked by Barb which speeded the process. On a personal note, she displayed a quality of protectiveness and caring toward me that few professionals have. She's a pro whom other professionals can only learn from. From phase 1 to closing, I was impressed by her insight, helpful professional referrals and negotiation skills. I’ll never use another realtor – she’s an impossible act to follow. Thank you for leading me to a beautiful home Barb!
