We are so pleased that we worked with Barb Schlinker to sell our home at 1450 Masters Drive in Woodland Park. Barb and her team go to great lengths to ensure the home is presented to the market in such a way to command top dollar for the home. From the elegant video production, great photos and beautiful pictures, it all went very well. Barb was able to negotiate for us to stay in the home well after closing allowing us to move to our next location at a comfortable pace. This was our second time using Barb to help us sell a home and the experience was top notch. You do not need to look further to find the best realtor for your need to sell or but a home.

We have bought and sold approximately 20 properties. No agent has even come close to the quality Barb offers. Her marketing was superb - generating 4 offers; and we had an accepted contract within a week, closing within a month. The icing on the cake though, is Barb herself. She's open, friendly, knowledgeable and most important, accessible ! Barb is worth ever dollar of the commission she will earn!

My experience listing my home for sale with Barb Schlinker has been exceptional from start to finish. Barb and her team are very professional and detail oriented. They did an excellent job staging my home, helping me with packing and removing furniture items I was unable to take to my new Florida home. Barb made sure that all aspects of the selling process went smoothly which gave me peace of mind. I would highly recommend Barb Schlinker to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.

We heard about Barb from our contractor who is a radio fan. We knew once we hired Barb it was the right decision to help us sell our parent's home. Barb gave us great advice on what to do to sell our home for the most money without spending too much money to update the home. The results were great. In just a few days Barb had a huge crowd at the Open House, over 85 visitors and it sold for $75,000 over the asking price. They made the whole process easy for us to manage while traveling between several states and we especially appreciated the move out cleaning service as well as the help removing unneeded items. We highly recommend Barb to sell your home!

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.

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.

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.

We heard about Barb Schlinker from her Radio Show and having been in the sales business we were very impressed. Barb and her team did a great job managing all the many showings and ultimately a great sale. The result could not have been better. We became friends with the buyer and the whole process exceeded our expectations. Barb's team was able to quickly respond to showing feedback to help get us the over full priced sale. From the recommendation to her trusted vendors that went well to the consistent and frequent communication from Barb and her team - it was a pleasure to do business with her. Steve & Crystal

We work out of state for most of the time. It was so comforting to know we had Barb Schlinker and her team there to support us throughout the sale. Barb and her team were excellent communicators and helped us sell our Black Forest home from a far at a great price with very little effort on our part. – Andy and Rene

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.

We needed to sell our 3rd story condo so we could buy our ranch style home. The former agent we hired could not sell it and only suggested to lower the price to get it sold. We hired Barb and we are so glad we did. She helped us do some updates that would command the highest sales price and her team sold it quickly at the full asking price.

It was so refreshing to have Barb and her team sell my home. I moved before the home went on the market and they took care of everything including the final clean out and carpet cleaning. After receiving multiple offers, it was someone on Barb's Team who brought me the best buyer who bought my home with cash at $35,000 over asking price. The result was a smooth on-time, quick closing.

Barb’s great marketing strategy helped us sell our Cherry Creek Crossing home for $60,000 over asking price and we set a new high sales price in the neighborhood. Barb and her team helped us negotiate to stay in the home after closing until our new place was ready to move right in. There is no question that using Barb was the right choice for us to make this move" Bill & Sharon

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.

I needed to downsize into a less expensive home. I’m so glad I hired Barb Schlinker and Tom Parker to handle my transition to my new home. They took care of everything for me including coordinating repairs and providing space to store my things during the move. My home sold very quickly and now I am living in a much smaller place that is much more affordable and in a great location.

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

We talked to several agents but it was clear Barb has the best marketing to get us the most money. Best of all....she sold our home for at $30,000 over what the other agents said it was worth. We moved out and left the home in her hands. Barb and her team were amazing and we did not have to worry about anything. While we were enjoying family in another state, Barb's team sold our home and it closed in just 3 weeks! We highly recommend Barb and her team!

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.

Barb went above and beyond to help sell our house. Great communication, very professional & knowledgeable, she has a great team working for her. Incredible service, we give her a 10 out of 10, score. We definitely would recommend her! We have dealt with a lot of realtors and Barb and her team are at the top of the list. Thank you, Barb!!!

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.

We have sold 3 homes and working with Barb Schlinker was by far the best experience. We previously tried another agent who failed to get many showings and only provided weak offers that would not work. We are so glad we made the switch. From the very beginning, we could tell Barb's process for selling homes is far superior to any other agent's work. Not only did she help us show our home and attract more buyers than ever before. But it sold quickly for top dollar. We could not have asked for a better real estate experience. We so appreciated Barb's hands-on care and attention to detail that included careful measurements, highlighting the home's best features and a very organized system that resulted in a quick sale with the least amount of hassle.

After hearing Barbs radio ads and looking at her website, it was obvious Barb and her team has the best system for selling our home. Not only did she sell it for full asking price in just 6 days, but she made sure our home has a warranty for the buyer for 1 year after closing. It was so helpful that her team took care of a final move-out clean. It helped us easily plan our move and ensured the family enjoyed a stress-free move. We highly recommend Barb and her team to sell your home. Dale & Krystal

We hired Barb to sell our home in Security. We accepted 1 cash offer within 30 hours of listing and it sold for $11,000 over our asking price. Her staff was wonderful and we were thankful for the use of her convenient moving truck. We highly recommend using Barb Schlinker to sell your home.

As a busy professional living in Denver, I had very little time to deal with selling my rental townhome. Barb and her team took care of everything, met the former tenant to turn over the property, took care of repairs, installed attractive staging furniture, took great photos and the results were excellent! She sold my townhome in a very short time at a full asking price. I closed remotely without even visiting the property. I highly recommend Barb Schlinker.

It was time for us to downsize our remodeled home. We interviewed several agents. but we knew Barb’s buyers and great marketing would get us the highest price for our home. In a few short weeks Barb was able to sell our home for top dollar, setting a new high sales price in the neighborhood. We are so glad we hired Barb and her team.
