Barbara's Testimonials
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
"Owing to my own work experience as a Staff Engineer at a well known local Corporation, I've come to expect both a high level of competence and of professionalism from the people that I deal with; Mrs. Faine demonstrated both of these. She also showed a commitment to performance on our home sale that is appreciated by my wife and myself.
Mrs.Faine approached her task in a very appropriate and effective manner. She allowed my wife and I to make the key decisions in all phases of process with little pressure. She influenced our decisions in the appropriate fashion - by presenting us with the necessary information and market data we needed to make these decisions. She made sure that we had all the necessary data throughout the process; and when questions did arise she either quickly answered them herself or quickly got the answers from the appropriate professionals (banking, tax accounting, mortgage financing, et cetera).
In addition to her value as a guide and source of information, Mrs. Faine demonstrated a real commitment to sell our home. Our house was standard model which had many competing houses in the market. Even though interest was somewhat low, Mrs. Faine continued serious marketing of our home from the day she first received the listing to the day that the final offer was accepted and the contracts signed. We were so happy with her work that we renewed our first contract when it expired even though this runs counter to the conventional wisdom.
I would again like to thank [you] for [your] efforts in the marketing and sale of our home. I would also like to thank your for the competent and professional service that we received.."
Sincerely, George B. Jarman, Engineer

I just want to take the opportunity to thank you for all your hard work in selling my "problem" house-my brand new house rebuilt in my older established neighborhood, after having been totally burned. In-depth studying about selling my home led me to interview five different real estate agents before selecting you, and it was worth the time I invested.
You have been there for me at every turn! I received nearly the price I wanted (only $500.00 less than listed) and sold within the three month contract time period, as well. You, Barb Faine, are terrific. Your knowledgeable expertise saved me hundreds of dollars, where any other agent very probably would have thrown up their hands and said "Oh well, there is nothing you can do."
I truly feel that [RE/MAX] is very fortunate to have you on their team and I would definitely recommend you as a buyer's agent or a seller's agent to anyone.
Again, THANKS, Barb Faine."
Sincerely, Ms. Judith Smith

"I would like to take this opportunity to express my appreciation for the professional service that you provided us as we relocated to the Melbourne area.
As you know, our move from Greensboro and our subsequent purchase of a home here in Tortoise Island involved numerous details that required much attention and follow up. With the requirements in my new position and prior to my family moving down, I had little time to attend to things that are normally the responsibility of the buyer. Your personal attention to these matters provided us not only with the necessary completion but with a great amount of "peace of mind" as well.
Your continued follow up on a professional as well as personal level has helped our family to become "localized" and adjusted much more quickly and your reputation for doing that is well deserved.
In all of our 9 moves I can honestly say that we have never been dealt with at such a quality level and we all would like to simply say: Thank you Barbara for not only being our realtor but our friend as well."
Sincerely, Wayne O. Wilkerson, CEO

"It has been my pleasure to work with Barbara Faine. When I met Barb, it was the night I met my husband. She had helped his friend buy a house. She was warm and bubbly and offered to help us in anyway. As time passed, my husband and I began searching for a home. Again Barb offered her help, in a few weeks she had us approved by her recommended lender, and 5 days later, we say and bought the PERFECT house. As she says, "It's fate... either it's meant to be, or it isn't." Within two weeks we closed. Now that was just the beginning of our relationship. She went that extra mile and helped us to find carpet and tile. She helped us to find an exterminator and get our garage door installed. She has become more than our realtor. She is our friend. I cannot imagine anyone else giving us the kind of service that Barb has. I trust her implicitly, and I value her expertise and advice. Should I ever need help again, I know that she will be right there to lend a helping hand.
I hope that my words have helped you to chose Barb Faine. I promise she is the wisest decision you will make in moving."
Sincerely, Amy KG Ozdemir, High School Teacher

"Now that Hanny and I are home in Missouri, we want to express our gratitude to you for providing us with your obviously valuable time. We appreciate your professionalism and your candid thoughts pertaining to the properties you revealed to us. Your enthusiastic demeanor and warm personality immediately put us at ease and allowed us to concentrate on what we were there for. After departing from you we did look at the other communities you suggested. We particularly liked the "Windsor Estates" (eastern side) as well as we did the "Timberlake" Area. We also visited "Bear Creek", and although there were beautiful estates there, the size of the houses were too large for our desires. Additionally, it was a little remote from all the wonderful facilities available further north. We were very impressed with the area and are planning to put our place on the market. I may have mentioned to you that I'm in the process of remod! eling the master bathroom in our house, primarily for because it needs it and we hope it will facilitate the sale. I will keep you advised and periodically send you an email. Again, thanks for your time and effervescent attitude."
