We know many real estate agents and our experience with Barb Schlinker is by far the best! She is very personable and professional. True to her commitment, she and her team were always very responsive and timely in answering any questions or concerns we had. She not only commanded 10 offers in a weakening real estate market but she was able to help us negotiate for the top dollar and get the most money for our Mom's home. Pete & Irene

After trying to sell our home previously and unsuccessfully with another agent, we are so delighted we called Barb. Very quickly Barb and her team helped with updated staging and great marketing. Barb was able to get a bidding war on our home in just a few weeks, and it sold for over asking price. The entire transaction was handled smoothly and closed on time. We highly recommend Barb.

We hired Barb to sell our home in Calhan. We got several great offers and it sold for $15,000 over our asking price in just 5 days. Having formerly been a Real Estate agent, it was so refreshing to have a great agent like Barb who fought for us all the way to closing. She was so helpful and professional. Barb was always available when we needed anything or had questions. We highly recommend using Barb Schlinker to sell your home.

Barb was quick to set up a meeting with us to discuss a plan for selling our home. She was very well prepared with data to help help us determine a strategic selling price. The entire process moved along quickly and after listing our home and conducting a 1 hour open house, we had 5 offers. We sold for $25,000 over list price! Her team was very helpful and kept us informed throughout the process. Thanks so much!!!

Barb was able to sell our home quickly at full asking price soon after it went on the market. It was so refreshing to have an agent and a great team that was able to get us to closing right on time with very little hassle. We appreciate that they took care of all the details so we could focus on moving to our next home." - Ben and Judy Devries

We were facing a short-notice PCS transfer to another state with the Army. After seeing Barb's videos on YouTube about selling a home we know Barb was the only choice for us. Barb's marketing was able to get us multiple offers over asking price the first weekend. All went as planned we were able to buy our new home just days after Barb sold our home.

Our townhome was getting too crowded for our family. Barb’s team helped us stage it, suggested some repairs to get the most money from selling. In just 1 week our townhome sold for the highest amount of any townhome in that neighborhood.

Barb Schlinker and Wendy are the two best real estate agents I have ever had in buying and selling a home in my life. Their careful attention to detail, professionalism, exactness, timing, listening to my personal needs and wants. They have respected my needs & wishes in every way. I will always will recommend them to my friends and family members. And I will always trust their care with them.

We had our remodeled home on the market for months over the summer. There were over 100 showings but now offers. We called Barb to help and we are so glad we did. She put in staging furniture, took some great photos and exposed our home to her database of buyers in waiting. Our home sold in 1 week for $10,000 over asking price.

Selling our home with Barb could not have been better. It sold in a few days for more than the asking price. And just as important, we appreciated the excellent communication with Barb and her team. They did everything they promised and more, supporting us through every phase of the sale. Photos, staging, marketing, etc. were all handled efficiently. Emails came regularly with helpful information, reminders and suggestions. When we called or texted with a question, Barb or someone from her office got back to us quickly with the needed answers. Her years in real estate have allowed her to develop a highly professional, smooth running, client-focused business model. Thanks, Barb! You exceeded our expectations!
Janet Savage
Barb sold our townhome in 3 days at $6000 over asking price setting a new high price for the townhome complex. Her team made the process so smooth and easy. We highly recommend Barb’s team to sell your home.
5214 Dovetail Ln, Colorado Springs, CO 80916 – Kate & Greg Fall
Although we weren't a current client, Barb was super-helpful in assisting us in preparing an Appeal of our current property tax assessment. She advertised that she would help anyone do this; you didn't have to be a current client selling or buying a home. She responded immediately to our phone call, and we communicated several times until we filed the appeal. Barb was most personable and welcoming and genuinely interested in helping us. We were able to file within a short time. We were so IMPRESSED that Barb was able to give us some of her precious time to do this, given her very full schedule and many clients.
Lance Beckett
This was certainly my most pleasant real estate experience. Honestly Barb and her team are exceptional. Any question or concern was taken care of and she sold for 12% over asking price. I wish Barb worked where I’m moving so that I could hire her again. This is coming from someone who has purchased several homes. By far she is the best that I have worked with.

This was, by far the best experience we have ever had selling a home. We decided to move back closer to family and needed to sell our mountain home in Crystal Park. Barb and her team were amazing and made the entire process so easy. She sold our home in just a few weeks for top dollar while we were away much of the time. We highly recommend Barb Schlinker and her entire Team!

It was time for us to downsize and sell our Fountain home and move closer to our grandkids. We heard about Barb Schlinker on Richard Randall’s show. We hired Barb to sell our home in Fountain and buy another home. She sold our home sold for $5000 over asking price in the 1st weekend. Timing the move so we did not have to move twice was a challenge, especially because we had to complete an insurance claim from last summer’s hail damage. Barb’s team handled everything and was able to close on time and move straight into our new home. We highly recommend Barb Schlinker.

Barb was able to sell our home for over asking price and make sure everything went well. She provides so many extra services like cleaning and handling little repairs to ensure we got the home sold. She even covered the expenses in advance for a small area of fresh carpet to ensure the buyers would be delighted to pay full price for the home. All the way through the process we received support from Barbs team from making sure the home was ready for showings as well as communicating issues that came up. In the end, Barb was able to get us over $5000 more than expected and we are delighted it is sold and completed.

It was such an easy process to sell my home with Barb Schlinker. I first met Barb a few years back and decided to stay in the home during the pandemic period and I’m so glad I did. That decision allowed me to add another $100,000 of value to my home in a short period of time. With the first meeting Barb provided a staging consultation that helped me get my home ready for sale on my schedule. Her Certified Pre-Owned Home program revealed I needed a new roof and because it was done in advance of the sale, her program set the stage so I could deal with the roof on my schedule and negotiate the best possible deal. Not only did Barb market the home so well that I had a lot of people come and look at the home, but I received two offers at the same time and that’s where it got exciting. Barb’s negotiating skills went into high gear and she was able to get the buyers to make their highest offers, giving me great choices on selling my home for nearly $10,000 over asking price in just 11 days. It was a really nice benefit that her program included house cleaning. That was a very nice touch that made my move effortless.

Barb was able to help us reduce our property tax valuation by over $221,000! What a savings on property taxes and insurance premiums! She uses a formula that accurately assesses the value of one's home. She was very prompt and very pleasant to work with. We highly recommend her for all real estate needs.
Edie Darrah
We are so glad we hired Barb and her team to sell our home on Borrego Drive. We felt so comfortable we moved out of the state before showing, she had 79 people attend the open house and she sold our home the first weekend for $66,500 over asking price and it closed on time in just 3 weeks!
John and Bobbie
Barb Schlinker and her team did such an amazing job selling our home on Del Rey Dr in Colorado Springs. Our sweet dog, Koussie, physically could not tolerate agents offering multiple showings, so Barb arranged to only show at a single (1) open house. Her marketing strategies were so effective the results were phenomenal and she had 153 people attend the open house, and it sold with multiple offers for $75,000 over asking price. Through the entire process, Barb made sure everything went as planned and on time. We highly recommend using Barb to sell your home if you want the most money for home and you want a very easy and fast home selling process. Gus & Cassondra
Cassondra Oetken
It was time for us to downsize and we needed someone who could help us get the most amount of money for our townhome. Barb helped us decide what to do and what not to do get our townhome ready for sale. Our townhome sold for full price, setting a new high sales price in the community.
6133 Pine Hill Dr – Mike & Glenda Lux
It was so nice to only have to show our home for just 1 hour and Barb and her team helped us sell our home for $55,000 over asking price with a cash buyer. Everything went as scheduled and it made the process easy.
Bill & Judy Bremer
As an active duty Air Force member, it was great to have Barb throughout the years watching out for the property while I was away from Colorado Springs and abroad. When it came time to sell, I was very glad I had Barb to help. She not only attenitvely guided me the right way to get it ready for sale but with her great marketing she was able to help me sell it for $35,000 over asking price and all while I was mostly out of state. I very strongly recommend using Barb Schlinker and her team to sell your home.
Mark Dickinson
Barb exceeded my expectations. She was a Blessing and also I don't think I couldn't have done any better. Thanks Barb and continue doing Steller work for your customers

After another broker missed the entire selling season by moving too slow, we hired Barb and she quickly helped us get the home on the market and looking great! It sold for over asking price in just 10 days. Barb and her team took care of all the details and the closing were very smooth and easy.
5183 Solar Ridge – Steve & June Hales
Barb and her team at Parker St. Claire come highly recommended. After accepting a job out of state we needed to quickly get our home on the market. We heard an ad for Barb on the radio and gave her a call. She was at our home the next day. Barb was friendly and knowledgable of the local market. She’s very detailed and brought with her a ton of information so we could price our home to sell. The home was staged and professionally photographed to highlight all the special features inside and out. Barb and her staff were always available for questions and even moved the last bit of furnishings to a storage unit for us just before closing! Not sure you’ll find a more helpful real estate broker/agent – give Barb a call!
