"My home buying process was longer than mostā¦ but in the best way. As a 27 year old self employed business woman I knew I wanted to buy a house but I had no idea where to start. How much can I afford? Do I want a house or condo? Am I a DIYār or just a gal who can paint a room? Insert Barbara Benotto, a home buyers dream woman and the woman who helped me answer all my questions. Barbara showed me all my options for buying and put me in touch with a local mortgage broker who presented me with scenarios for what my payments would look like. When I found the perfect house for me everything was easy. No surprises and within a comfortable budget. I never felt pressured or like I didnāt understand what I was signing or how much it was all going to cost. Fast forward to 3 months after closing and now I want to redo my kitchen! Barbara had all the connections for trades that I needed! She did more than sell me a houseā¦ she started me on the next chapter of my life and Iām forever grateful."

"In looking to move to a new city and area it was important for us to find a real estate professional who was deeply knowledgeable about the area and would be direct and honest with us about the state of the market and what would be the best approach for our offers on homes. Barbara checked all of those boxes for us. Her expertise within the area was critical to us finding the proper home, as was her data driven approach to offer structure and how to approach the negotiation in a highly competitive environment.
Ultimately, Barbara helped find us our dream home and we felt confident moving through each step of the process because Barbara was there and highly responsive every step of the way. Even when potential problems arose, Barbara was calm and methodical in approaching and always had our best interests at heart. We can't say enough good things about our experience."

"Can't say enough great things about Barbara! She recently helped us with the sale of our first home and the purchase of our dream home. In addition, she has also helped multiple family members find their forever homes quickly. From the start, she went above and beyond to understanding our needs, must-haves all while considering our best interest. This crazy market had us concerned, but her dedication and positive attitude helped us achieve a home sale and purchase quicker than we could have imagined. Her communication and honesty throughout the entire process was excellent, she was always available and provided us with detailed information regarding every facet of the process. She is a true professional with a wealth of knowledge that understands the market, the community, and her clients and will do anything to help them achieve their home goals. She is an absolute delight to work with and has since become a family friend! Would highly recommend!"
