"Mrs. Barb, was amazing from the beginning of our home search to purchasing to closing day! She was our go to for everything we needed and was readily available whenever we had questions. She was attentive and understanding of our needs and wants and found us an amazing home!"
★★★★★
"Barb was GREAT! It took my boyfriend and I 6 months of looking at houses to finally find our home!! Barb was so patient and kind throughout the entire process. She definitely knows her ins and outs of a house. What I appreciated most was her honesty regarding flaws and issues she was able to spot right away with a house and not skip over these problems. She literally handled all of our app with the inspection/radon/attorneys etc. she has a great team of professionals working with her and will definitely be using her services again in the future if we ever decide to ."
★★★★★
"This is the second residence Barb Noote has sold for me. Using her to sell my father’s residence was once again a wonderful experience. She kept me informed every step of the way, all the way through closing. She is very punctual and always returns my calls, text messages and emails. I have referred her to family and friends and my attorney informed me that she was a wonderful realtor to work with."
★★★★★

We recommend to her a family friend and we will continue to recommend her. Who wouldn’t want to have Barb and her barbarians as my daughters would say to be their realtor. She’s awesome."
★★★★★
"Barb is meticulous and knows the real estate business inside and out. She walked us through every aspect of the process and worked with our relocation company beautifully. She staged our house as part of her service. We had so many showings as soon as we hit the market, and Barb sold our house in five days! We highly recommend her!!"
