"There are some people in life that you feel lucky to work with, Barb is one of those for my family and I. From our first call together I came to realize that we hit the jackpot. We had a lengthy initial conversation (on my account) about our ideal scenario and from there she sourced and scheduled a variety of the best homes for my family to consider completely on our schedule (tight) and pace (fast). Barb explained throughout the process why, with great patience, she thought something was good or requiring further consideration. We quickly synced on what would be great for us and what was not so much because Barb is sharp and easy to talk to and that helped us big time as this was our first home purchase and we were moving internationally to a completely new place. Her style is impeccable to say the least and this was particularly helpful during the offer and closing phases when there are tough tradeoffs to make. In the end, we acquired a fantastic home in Boca Raton, below list! As mentioned this was an international move to a brand new place for us with no one we knew in the area and one of the biggest things Barb did was to roll out the red carpet with her contacts, warm intros, and advice about everything we needed in the area. Barb’s professionalism, market knowledge, and personality make her someone we will look forward to working with again for our next moves in PBC. Barb, thank you for everything you’ve done for us!" - Kris K.

"Barbara Hornyak was an amazing realtor. In fact, if you are reading this review and thinking about listing your home for sale in Florida, then in our opinion the single biggest mistake you could potentially make is to select anyone but Barb as your listing agent! Why are we so enthusiastic? The answer is quite simple: Barb delivers. Our story is not one of a typical sale. When we decided to list our home we were no longer living in Florida, and we knew that we would need someone we could trust to help us through the process. Before the house could be listed we knew it needed a little renewal, and supervising the work long distance was a potential nightmare we wanted to avoid. We were so lucky to have found Barbara! She worked with us and our contractors to ensure the efforts went smoothly, and as our ā€œwoman on the groundā€ Barb helped us quickly resolve all the little problems and keep on schedule. Barbara was also great throughout the sales process. We wish we could say that the sale went without a problem, but then we would be writing a fairy tale instead of sharing our experience. We had offers too low, buyers back out, and even an appraisal with a value below the agreed sales price, but throughout all the noise ad chaos we had Barb keeping the process moving forward. Barb was our knowledgeable guide on the road to a sale, and she brought us to the destination safe and sound. In summary, if you are reading this review because you are searching for a realtor to help you sell your home, and if you are like us and want to make the best decision possible, then you are also in luck. By all means continue your research and conduct all necessary due diligence to give yourself comfort that you are making a knowledgeable and informed decision, but in the end – after having prepared a short list of potential choices – heed our recommendation and place Barbara on top of that list. If you wish to learn more about our experience then feel free to contact me directly. My wife and I are happy to answer questions and to repeat our endorsement. She was that good. " - Gene G.

"Barbara is a consummate professional at her job, her attention for the details, and her ability to communicate and stay in contact make you feel comfortable and at ease from the start to the finish. Until I met Barbara my experience with the sale of our home became frustrating and there was no activity, then I met Barbara and he digital, internet, social media process with targeted and precision blasts to qualified buyers generated immediate activity and results, and our home was sold within 45 days from the moment she began working for us. Further, her usage of aerial photography and cutting edge virtual tour imagery edited into the drone aerial photography creates a compelling experience for would be buyers to analyze and make decisions before even entering your home to make a purchase. I am impressed with Barbara on every level, and her team of professionals handling all other aspects of the sale process even down to having a terrific real estate attorney conveniently located in the area she services for real estate makes the whole experience effortless and easy. I loved working with Barbara, and would recommend her to anybody looking for a high quality, professional and results driven experience in either buying or selling a piece of real estate. You won't be disappointed, and you will wonder why you didn't switch sooner to somebody like her. " - William C.

"Barb is professional, courteous, diligent, trustworthy, and accountable to her industry and her clients. She has represented me on two home purchases, one in late 2015 and one in 2016. I can confidently say that she is an expert in her field and in an elite category regarding customer focus. It is important to note that there were a few problems that needed to be resolved with the seller, during my most recent purchase in 2016. Barb went the extra mile to make sure it was taken care of and resolved. She never seemed stressed or lacked professionalism in the wake of these issues. She was committed to me, her client, and just got it done! I appreciate her for so many reasons. She is delightful to work with. > - Tresa T.

"Being somewhat addicted to real estate websites I thought I could find my dream home by myself. I found Barbara by accident and I could not be more thankful for such luck. From the beginning, she made us feel as if we were her only client. She worked tenaciously and in only two weeks found us a home we had not even noticed previously. The negotiation was not easy and she took much of the burden of it on herself. The result was exactly as we intended. I simply have to say that Barbara is the ultimate professional in the deal making,, sensitive to the individual needs of family members, and most importantly, made this potentially stressful situation fun and delightful. I recommend her with the most sincere enthusiasm. " - Sandra B.

"After moving to south Florida, Barbara was very helpful, resource, and patience when it came to helping me find a home. I admire her energy and recommendations for locations and specifics about selected homes. You can’t go wrong using her as your agent. Barbara is definitely a winner and will make you feel like that after you purchase the home you want. I highly recommend her for your next home search. " - Eliva E.

"I would highly recommend Barb to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home. Barb helped us find the perfect home patiently taking us through the many properties we were interested in and was always careful to point out the factors that may limit the resale potential on certain homes. With our new house under contract, we were anxious to sell our existing home, and Barb came up with a game plan we were comfortable with and that would move our house quickly. We sold our house in under 3 weeks and got the piece we were looking for! Through it all, Barb was a true professional, shared her extensive knowledge and expertise, and was a pleasure to work with both for us and those that visited our house. Barb has a great personality and is easy to work with. I would highly recommend her for any of your real estate needs. I would highly recommend Barb to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home.
