Douglas Barnes - Testimonials

He is highly knowledgeable of the Vineville area and on what it takes to make an offer stand out! Douglas Barnes made the transaction super easy. He is available at all times, and helped us greatly in navigating the home buying journey! Thanks for being a rockstar!

Once we were on the same page regarding my priorities, he made it all happen. I accepted an offer above asking price within a day of my property being listed. Douglas kept me updated throughout the process and even made it possible for me to sign my portion of closing documents on my way out of town. I would highly recommend Douglas to anyone looking for a good Realtor.

It was impressive because the value of the house wasn't high, but he was willing to show at 8pm. He also took them to another house after. A few weeks later, we needed to find a house for ourselves and changed realtors because of the interaction we had with Douglas just prior. From the start, he was available the following morning. We quickly moved on the house and were able to secure it for well under the listing price. There were a few repairs which Douglas took the lead and were addressed with no concern. We closed within the month. He also has a wealth of connections to make this process easy. Outside of the home buying process, Douglas is a great guy to just have a conversation with or pick the brain of. My wife and I would strongly suggest Douglas Barnes as your realtor.

Douglas knew the pain and heartache that accompanied the sale of 317 Buford place and always kept my feelings into account. I am thankful that God placed Douglas in our life during this very difficult time. The process was smooth, no complications. I don’t think there is another realtor that could have done it any better. Douglas is top notch!!

Moreover, his professionalism, personable demeanor, attention to detail, and availability—all made him an easy and outstanding person to work with on the purchase of our new home. Robert Kelly Heather Copan

Doug met with us months in advance, and listened to our specific needs and timelines, and complicated schedules prior to a military move overseas. He was pivotal in creating an aggressive (but focused) marketing plan. Doug crafted a comprehensive strategy to list, market, and effectively sell our home for the correct price and knowing what the market was also dictating based on his experience. He was also always customer focused, and accessible whenever we had questions and concerns--even working around our crazy work/travel schedules and across multiple time zones to deliver us pivotal news/concerns. He was even more pivotal in managing multiple offers, even closing our deal amid multiple buyer concerns that could have deterred other agents and had the deal fall through. He even negotiated a common ground for repairs before our sales deal was about to fall through at the final minute! In short, Doug was outstanding and delivered top-notch service and patience with us as first-time sellers the past few months. He worked hand-in-hand with us and the buyer's agent through the process, while being completely clear on all communications. We closed/moved out exactly on time and it was all due to Doug's diligence and detail-oriented, customer-focused approach where he truly acted in OUR best interest at all stages of selling the largest asset a person owns! If we move back, we will certainly be using Doug moving forward, and we couldn't have a had a better experience selling our first home!

Once we met Douglas, we felt so comfortable with the process, and we really appreciated his approach with his military background. He was incredibly personable and genuine. He seemed to have a good understanding of the area we were looking in and what we were looking for in a home. He was able to understand both of our wants and needs, and he truly found the perfect house for us! Douglas was incredibly responsive and went above and beyond at each and every step. Even when things did not go as we had hoped or planned, he was there to straighten everything out. We know that without him, we wouldn't have gotten the home we had our hearts set on. A truly wonderful experience!

He helped guide us through every step of the buying process. He made us feel like we were his only clients and was able to answer any and all questions we had.

I would recommend him in heartbeat, he truly loves what he does and it shows. Thank you, Douglas!

He was very professional, knowledgeable and detail oriented. He kept us informed during the whole process and was able to sell our house in a timely manner. He was an all around classy person to work with. Highly recommend!
