Barketa is the best agent! Her dedication and kindness overflows into every aspect of the process of finding a house, renting the house, and selling the house! She was never a stranger; she was immediately my friend! She is amazing!

Barketta was a consummate professional. I don't think we could have done as well with any one else.

Barketa did a wonderful job selling my house for me. This sale was especially hard due to the fact I sold the home my children grew up in. She made the transition very easy. She is so knowledgeable in the legalities. Highly recommend Barketa for all your Real Estate needs!!!!

If you are a Remote Real Estate Investor, Barketa Kerns is your go-to person!!!!!. My entire transaction was remote all from California while the purchase was in Elkhart, IN. Barketa was communicating every step and communicating her concerns, mitigating delays.

Barketa is one of the best realtors in the business, I will even say, the GOAT! During the whole process, she gave us her best. We seen some really great homes and we were having a hard time with making a choice until we seen the one, 1520 Indiana! To summarize everything in a nut shell, Barketa helped us make our dream come to reality and I hope that she continues to help others with finding there dream home. Thank you Barketa, and may God richly bless you with everything that you set out to do!

Barketa was fantastic! She listened to our needs and made thoughtful suggestions and advocated on our behalf. She understood how stressful moving states with 2 teenagers is and did her best to make sure our daughters were comfortable and listened to as well as us. We will absolutely use Barketa again when we need to sell our current home!
