Barketa was attentive, knowledgeable, and full of helpful information and suggestions throughout the process. As an out-of-state seller, I especially appreciated having someone local I could trust to guide me and look out for my best interests. Her communication and professionalism made the entire experience smooth and reassuring.

I love Barketta. I could always trust her and she knows the right things to think about when considering properties. However she let me be guided by my own opinions as well. She is professional and knows the business extremely well and could guide me through all of my questions and anything that I had concerns about. I would definitely refer people to her and use her again for myself.
