"After
finding us our dream home, you didn’t stop your efforts to help us. You
stayed with us every inch of the way, stepping in to help promptly any time
something potentially stressful came up. Your follow-through and follow-up
are incomparable. You made sure the entire complicated 1031 Exchange
transaction was wrapped up smoothly. You turned headaches into handshakes!"
Henry
Marx & Harriet Schechter
“After
having my house on the market for six months, I switched to Loann as my
Realtor. Within three weeks, I had a contract and a back-up contract! Loann
is extremely professional and possesses expert knowledge and experience. You
won’t go wrong putting yourself in her hands."
Carolyn Wren
“You
made us feel like we were your only clients, which was wonderful for us. We
love our home and are so happy to be here. We’ll definitely pass your name
along to any friends needing a realtor."
Jim & Courtney
Brewer
"Loann
was Terrific. She was extremely efficient, kind and unfailingly attentive
throughout. Without her unflagging watch-dogging of the transaction, and her
diplomatic handling of tricky issues, I fear all would have been lost
several times over.”
Deanna and Gene
Yancy
“Loann
genuinely cares about her clients. She is of exceptional character and is
highly motivated to be of service. She has considerable expertise in the
paperwork procedures of mortgage application, providing maps, current
listings and other very helpful information for the newly arrived house
hunter… We are very happy in our new home. It is a dream come true. She is
the best real estate agent we have ever worked with. She truly receives our
recommendation for anyone who requires the best in real estate skills.”
Dennis Marchese
& Cheryl Stereff
“Being
a first-time homebuyer, I had no experience to draw upon in navigating the
daunting process of locating and buying a home. This effort would have been
very difficult without your professional guidance and enduring patience. I
am now living in my dream home, and I thank you for this.”
David W.
Broome
“We
were the first couple to visit the house we eventually bought; had we not
been, I doubt we would have been able to get it. In this tough sellers’
market, only an agent as tenacious and attentive as Loann can get results
for her clients. Loann has become our real estate agent for life. My wife
and I wholeheartedly recommend Loann to all our acquaintances every chance
we get.”
Stephen L. Melton
“I
was impressed with your ethics, professionalism, your knowledge, and your
efficiency during the sale of my home. You were always on top of things and
followed through without any calls from me. It is refreshing to feel
confidence, trust, and faith in one’s real estate lady. You are a credit to
the profession and I truly wish you continued success.”
Ardith G. Liercke
“Since
our closing, she has sold yet another house to friends of ours, and we look
forward to referring her to many others. We now refer to Loann as ‘our’
realtor, but most of all, our friend – she is a jewel!”
Will & Annie Ransone
“The
booklet you put together, complete with maps and a calendar of events, is a
terrific touch. You even went out of your way to preserve and convey the old
documents of historic value related to our property. We have enjoyed them
and used them to research the early history of the property as we have been
restoring it. Your efforts helped us feel welcome and at home.”
Cliff & Karen Kearsley
“You
made it easy and you are a gift in my life. Thank you!”
Betti Burke
"We
had two pieces of property that were part of a trust and that at the close
of the trust, we decided to sell. We cannot say enough for Loann's expertise
in guiding us through this. We particularly appreciated the fact that she
was available to us whenever we called with a question. She kept us fully
informed as to the progress of the sales almost daily and all necessary
paperwork was instantly in our hands. And, she was always very gracious when
we spoke with her. We have worked with other realtors before this in both
buying and selling properties and have never had such a pleasant experience
nor found anyone who was obviously expert in the realty field. If we owned
other property to sell, we would certainly work with Loann as our realtor.
We thank her for her efforts on our behalf and would be very happy to
recommend her to any prospective client at any time."
Richard & Claire Collins
"How
can I begin to thank you for all you've done to help us? As an organizing
expert, I know how rare it is to find someone who is well-organized in a
paper-intensive profession such as real estate. Loann, you are one of the
most organized people I've ever met. I can't say enough nice things about
you - you are simply the best. I fact, I think you are a true Miracle
Worker! We feel blessed to have you in our lives."
Harriet Schechter
I've
been trying to write a letter of both gratitude and recommendation to you
for all the exemplary things you've done, and been for us. It's harder
writing about a friend, I think than a client relationship, and you have
truly become such a friend. You are always there for us, no matter when or
what. You are extremely sensitive to the needs of the other person, whether
us, or the people buying our house. I greatly respect your professional
acumen, your integrity, your honesty, and your wonderful sense of humor.
Deciding, listing, selling and moving from a house after 40 years is not an
easy task, and your sensitivity certainly made it easier for us. There was
so much to do. From dealing with the Byzantine bureaucratic maze of the city
while getting the unrecognized, although originally existent bathroom
through the permit process, to the final walk through with the buyers, you
were always there, and always available for consultation between. You were
always on top of the situation seeing things ran smoothly.
Now that we are gone and trying to find another home in another far away
city, you are still with us, still giving tips, support and being involved
with our daily lives. For that I am truly grateful. It is difficult, both in
the selling and the buying, and I am truly glad to be able to count on you.
You are much more than a realtor; you are a true friend indeed.
What I appreciate most about you is your no nonsense approach to things,
your honesty with sensitivity, and your true compassion. I would recommend,
endorse, and whole heartedly urge anyone looking for a realtor to utilize
the services of Loann Barter, without hesitation. I would be happy to tell
any prospective clients how satisfied we were, anytime.
M.A. & Paul Rasmussen
It
is with full confidence that I write this letter of recommendation for Loann
Barter, Realtor. Loann's website was easy to use and had a lot of useful
information regarding the area which helped us learn a little more before
looking at neighborhoods. When the opportunity arose to spend some time in
the area, we
called ahead to Loann and introduced
ourselves on the phone. Her enthusiasm and her desire to help us was
unmatched by any realtor we have dealt with in the Midwest, and she
immediately helped us feel like we were making a good decision. After a few
days just tagging along with her on her regular workday, we saw dozens of
houses and knew several areas of interest. Loann was never pushy, and we
never had the feeling that she wished for anything but to find us our
"perfect" house. Loann did not sell us a house on that first week, but she
continued to remember us and sent back many electronic images of houses she
thought we might be interested in purchasing. During the following 2-3
months, we spoke to her often, and never ceased being amazed by her energy
and patience. Ultimately, we found a house of interest, and Loann arranged
several visits to comparably priced homes so that we could make a
comfortable final decision. Upon making our accepted offer, Loann continued
to provide unbelievable service to assist us as out of state buyers, which
obviously made our life much simpler. What has really allowed me to write
this letter with no reservations is the service that Loann has delivered
after our closing. She has assisted with access assistance for utilities,
repairmen, etc., in our absence and without being asked. I have dealt with
professional realtors in the past that are quite thorough in their job;
Loann has provided the first experience which has left me with the feeling
that I have made a good friend. This is a wonderful feeling when you are
considering moving across country to an area in which you really know no
one, and we look forward to our next opportunity to "catch up with Loann".
Paul K. Knight
"Until
we met Loann Barter, we never felt that a realtor 'earned' the money. All
that changed when we met Loann. She truly is the best realtor we've known in
30 years of buying and selling houses. Loann knows the market, knows the
laws, and knows how to make the process work for her clients."
