Ratings & Reviews
Working with Barbara Long was a fantastic experience!
Her knowledge of the real estate market, attention to detail, and genuine care for her clients made the entire process smooth and stress-free. She listened to our needs, offered invaluable advice, and helped us find our perfect home. We couldn't have asked for a better Realtor!"
Very impressive.
The house is beautiful. You've made the house look very inviting. Barbara the house looks terrific. You did done a great job. The house looks new and fresh. Your staging of our house is really beautiful! Your talent and the time and effort that you put in really shows!! Thank you for all your efforts. I would love you to come to our new house and decorate it!! I feel so much better knowing the house is looking so great and in such good hands. Thanks, Barbara, for all your time, talent and love that you have put into our house. I feel that your creativity and services were excellent and well worth the costs.
Making the decision to buy a new home was incredibly nerve racking, but Barbara helped to alleviate the anxiety!
As soon as we met her we knew that she was the realtor for us. She asked us what was important in a house for us, and proceeded to look ASAP. She connected us with a lender and immediately began showing us homes. She was very patient when a house didn't quite fit. She was very communicative throughout the whole process. If we had questions, she answered them. From start to finish Barbara walked us through the process it was so great to have someone so knowledgeable and experienced. She made us feel confident through out the entire process. Barbara really made us feel heard and as a priority.
My wife and I were getting older and decided to move from Charlotte to Raleigh to be closer to our children.
Barbara came highly recommended, and after meeting her, we knew she was the right choice. She helped us sell our home in Charlotte and connected us with a great agent in Raleigh. Barbara truly cared about our family and guided us through every step of the process. We’re so grateful for her support and will always remain friends."
I was excited to buy my first home, but the process didn’t start smoothly.
I found a real estate agent who referred me to a lender, but when I spoke to them, they said my credit score and low down payment wouldn’t qualify me for a loan. A friend of mine then suggested Ms. Barbara Long. I decided to give her a call, and from the very first meeting in her office, I could tell she was different. Barbara didn’t just push me off to another lender or tell me I wasn’t ready. Instead, she took the time to truly understand my situation. We called a lender together, and after hearing the same disappointing news—that I couldn’t get a loan—Barbara didn’t give up. She sat down with me and patiently went over my credit score and finances, explaining where things stood and what needed to improve. That’s when Barbara suggested we create a six plan . In 6 months I was able to close on my very first home. She truly went above and beyond. Barbara is one in a million!
"When my mother passed away, we were out of state and needed help selling her home in Charlotte.
Barbara Long was a true blessing. She knew the market well and recognized that the house needed some work to get top dollar. Barbara walked us through with thoughtful suggestions, and we immediately felt confident in her ability. We gave her full control, and she handled everything—from coordinating painters, plumbers, and landscapers, to staging the home. She kept us updated every step of the way, and the transformation was incredible! The house sold quickly, and we couldn't be more grateful. Without Barbara, we wouldn’t have been able to get the results we did. She made a tough situation so much easier."
I had the pleasure of working with Ms. Barbara for both buying my first home and selling the property several years later, and I cannot recommend her enough! From start to finish, she demonstrated exceptional professionalism, expertise, and dedication to ensuring a smooth and successful experience. When I was purchasing my first home, she patiently guided me through every step of the process. She took the time to understand my needs and preferences, and she worked tirelessly to find properties for me. Once it was time to sell, I knew without hesitation that Ms. Barbara was the realtor I wanted to work with again. She took a strategic approach to pricing and marketing the property resulting in a quick sale. Throughout both transactions, Ms. Barbara was not only a knowledgeable professional but also a supportive ally. She truly cares about her clients and goes above and beyond to ensure their needs are met. If you're in need of a top-notch realtor call Barbara Long.
During the abnormal home selling frenzy, I was faced with being forced from my 13+ yr. rental home, so the house could be sold. I didn't know what to do.
I began looking for a realtor to assist with finding another home to rent. I was blessed and fortunate to have crossed path with Ms. Long. After viewing several rental homes, I learned I would not be able to house my 2 dogs "pit bulls".I refuse to rehome or place my fur family in a shelter. Ms. Long being the animal lover she is, began to expand my possibilities of homeownership. Owning a home never crossed my mind, but Ms. Long assisted me through the entire process and it can be extensive; her dedication never wavered. Ms. Long years of experience became vital in my search, and because of her expertise; I purchased my first home. I will FOREVER be grateful. Ms. Long, I can't thank you enough. I know I must have done something right in this world, because I was blessed with you. Thank you, for being you.
