We had tried to sell our mother's home last year. An agent came, listed it and did little else. That listing expired. We then contacted Barry Lebow. His approach was totally different as Barry brought various services and professional advice and a new approach. The first thing that he requested was that all of the tired, old furnishings be disposed of. He had us rip up the old broadloom to expose the hardwood flooring and to do touch-up painting. He helped us trim the yards to give the house good curb appeal. Then Barry marketed the house and we had good action and a very good offer that we accepted. The buyer was not his client. The closing came and the buyer could not close as they had not sold their home. Barry reached out to the other side, offered his services and because of his knowledge of mortgage financing, he helped that buyer get bridge financing and the deal eventually closed. He had to negotiate with 3 different lawyers, the buyers, their agent, and us. We doubt that few other agents could have pulled it all together like Barry did.
When Barry came to see our mother at her senior's residence, he was respectful, he was patient, and he made our mother laugh. We felt that at all times he had her best interests above all else.
We recommend Barry to anyone who is thinking of selling and the more complex the situation, he is the professional who can handle it.
A 5.0 out of 5.0!
Recent: Ontario, CanadaI live out of province and engaged Barry on the advice of real estate marketing guru Michael Krisa to sell my elderly mother's home of 56 years. Barry's depth of experience came across immediately. He demonstrated solid knowledge and awareness of the market dynamics of the area, accommodated the long-distance logistics, and interacted with appropriate sensitivity, consideration and professionalism around site visits.
Barry's frequent and extensive email status updates itemizing his efforts to promote the property were also particularly appreciated in the circumstances - in my experience, too many agents are prone to saying nothing unless you chase them for updates. Barry's notes allowed me to easily update other family members with regular progress reports. >glenn
