Fantastic experience: Loretta did a fabulous job of finding us the perfect home. She knew what we wanted and she was tireless in finding just the right house.

Fantastic experience: Working with Loretta to sell our house was really a pleasure. Selling a house is a stressful experience and she was able to navigate all obstacles with optimism and a level head. She is very knowledgeable about the housing market and priced our house just right. The fact that she was able to sell our house in a buyers market shows her experience, effort and hard work. I will definitely recommend her to other buyers/sellers and she will be my first call if I decide to buy another house!

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review. It truly means a lot to me, especially knowing everything we navigated together throughout the sale of your home. Every transaction has its share of unexpected twists, and yours certainly had a few! I'm so glad I could be there to help guide you through each challenge, keep things moving forward, and advocate for you from start to finish—even after closing. My goal is always to take as much stress off my clients as possible so they never feel like they're facing those hurdles alone. Thank you for trusting me with the sale of your beautiful home. It was a privilege to help you through such an important transition, and I'm incredibly grateful for your recommendation. Wishing you nothing but happiness in this next chapter, and when our paths cross again, I'd be honored to help you find your next home!

Fantastic experience: We had such a great experience working with Loretta as first-time homebuyers. She was with us every step of the way and made what could have been a stressful process feel so much easier. Loretta always took the time to explain things, answer our questions, and make sure we understood what was happening throughout the process. No matter how many questions we had, she was always available and quick to respond. On top of being incredibly knowledgeable, she is genuinely kind, friendly, and easy to work with. We always felt supported and knew she had our best interests in mind. We are so grateful for all of her help and would absolutely recommend Loretta to anyone looking to buy a home!

Thank you both so much for this sweet review! It was such a pleasure getting to know you, and I'm so grateful that your family (and now your new neighbor!) trusted me enough to send you my way. Referrals like that mean so much to me. You did one of the smartest things a new construction buyer can do—you reached out BEFORE visiting the model homes. A lot of people don't realize they can, and really should, have their own Realtor represent them when buying a brand-new home. Because we connected early, I was able to register you with the builder, help coordinate your home inspection, guide you through each step, and be your advocate throughout the entire process. Thank you for trusting me to be part of such an exciting milestone. Congratulations again on your beautiful new home! I can't wait to see all the memories you make there, and I'm so happy you'll have such wonderful neighbors too!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been through this process many times, but I’ve never once experienced such an energetic and caring agent that I was absolutely was on my side. Loretta’s representation of my needs and desires were stunning, as if I had a family member who I trusted implicitly to guard my self interest. Whomever said that real estate agents have an easy living does not know her. Her energy was beyond compare and I felt guilty at just how much work she did for me. Outstanding communicator, answered calls/texts even while busy. Loretta went above and beyond throughout the entire tedious and laborious process, no mistakes, no gaps in service. I cannot count how many times I thanked her, yet still I’m certain that it was nowhere near enough. From the bottom of my heart, thank you, Loretta.

Thank you for the kind words. Buying a home is a BIG deal, and glad I was there to guide you so you made the best decision for YOU. It is not always an easy process, but together we stayed the course and successfully crossed the finish line for a huge WIN! Welcome home! And please know that I am here for you far beyond the closing too so please reach out if any questions come up. Congratualtions and I look forward to coming over to pick some avocados and oranges with you guys!

Fantastic experience: My experience working with Loretta was extremely positive. Anytime I needed information, she answered immediately. She consistently went the extra mile. If I had a question about the trailer, she would find the answer out. The things that needed to be addressed in order to finalize the purchase, she would handle efficiently. She also kept me informed of every change and updated along the way. Buying property can often be stressful, and in my case, the timeline was tight. She made what could have been a miserable experience feel smooth and manageable. Beyond her professionalism, she is simply a bright, kind, and genuinely thoughtful person who truly cares about her clients. I am so grateful for her support and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a real estate agent who is responsive, proactive, and deeply committed to doing things right.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience. It was a pleasure working with you and I am so glad it all worked out, and so quickly! Stephanie Ojeda with the Money Store was a vital part of the team! And you were always so responsive too, which helped us close so quickly. I wish you much success in your new job, and am sure you will enjoy your new home and beautiful surroundings. Thank you again for choosing me to represent you. Welcome home, sweet home! Congratulations.

Fantastic experience: It's a pleasure to write this review for Loretta. Wow! What a quick, professional, successful job she did for us in selling my wife’s recently deceased sister’s mobile home in Ventura. We live in Colorado and interviewed Loretta by phone after researching realtors online and reading her reviews. We liked her right away because she was so knowledgeable and easy to talk to. She was straight forward, honest and courteous. Loretta took charge during the entire process, and we just followed her lead. She always responded swiftly when we reached out to her, and kept us informed almost daily every step of the way. She met with us at our convenience when we traveled from Colorado to Ventura, and showed up on-time. She is the ultimate professional. Thanks to Loretta’s expertise and dedication, the mobile home sold just two weeks after it went on the market. Then closed escrow without a hitch. If you want a realtor who will personally invest in you in marketing your home or finding a new home for you, and follow through to the close of the transaction, without hesitation, call Loretta.

Don, it was a pleasure to meet you and Debbie, first on the phone, then briefly in person! I enjoyed helping to sell the mobile home, taking the lead while you live out of state. I appreciate the trust you placed in me and my team. The staging allowed a buyer to see the full potential of this cute and cozy home. Marketing the location and affordability brought the right buyer in the door, and I suggested an awesome lender to the buyer - Stephanie Ojeda with the Money Store got the loan closed in only 3 weeks! Quite a feat for mobile home financing on leased land, requiring park approval AND guiding a buyer who was also out of the area! A true win-win for all. Again, I express my condolences in the loss of Debbie's sister, and know that Donna loved where she lived; such a quaint park in a prime location. Thank you again for your kinds words. If you find yourself back in the Ventura area, please let me know!

Fantastic experience: Last year Loretta helped us diligently find the right house in Ventura. She is very moral, educates you as you go, and truly cares about finding the right house for you. She also works with a great group of contractors and lending agents through the buying process. Thanks again Loretta.

Welcome to Ventura!! I am grateful that you were referred to me - referrals are the best compliments! I enjoyed sharing my knowledge about the Ventura neighborhoods with you and your family. And I am thrilled for you that you chose such an amazing home, in a wonderful neighborhood. I wish you all the best in this next chapter as Venturans! I think in several years, your son will say "the best thing his parents did was move to Ventura" - I am grateful my dad made that decision when I was a child! Congratulations on your new home!

Fantastic experience: Looking to downsize, I had been looking for that special property for a long time and nearly given up. I went to an open house, fell in love with a property, and did not have pre-approval. I cold called Loretta Barbar to put in an offer. Loretta jumped into action immediately and helped me with a couple of options to get pre-approved in record time. While waiting, she placed the offer for me and worked her magic speaking to the selling agent. We got the pre-approval letter and knowing there was another offer, didn’t expect to win the bid. Loretta called me with the great news and truly matched me in excitement. She has an incredibly organized and seamless process, with a very competent team. It has been nearly 30 years since I have bought property and things you don’t even think of, Loretta sends you information on. The process was crazy at times to please the lender, and every time Loretta problem solved on the fly and provided outstanding service. The most memorable moments were Loretta’s call telling me we won the bid and got the house and the other was handing me the keys on closing day. She made everything so special and I would recommend Loretta Barbar to everyone!

This was one of my favorite sales... it was crazy at times for sure, but you came in with vision, and together we stayed on the path and found more ways to love this unique property, so it was well worth the ups and downs! We had to jump over some hurdles for sure, a few that were new to me, but you remained calm and we kept your eye on the prize. I cannot wait to see your vision come true as you create a special home in an amazing location. Cheers to you!! Welcome home (well, once the renovation is complete! It will be well worth it!). Thank you for trusting me to be your advocate, negotiator, and transaction manager so that we could cross the finish line for a huge win!

Fantastic experience: It was a pleasure working with Loretta on our recent transaction. Her professionalism was instrumental in ensuring the process remained smooth and efficient. The successful closing resulted in a high level of satisfaction for all parties involved. I look forward to the opportunity to collaborate with you again in the future.

Thank you so much, Tanya. Having great communication and working together to get to the finish line was amazing. We were fortunate to close a week early and from opening to closing got it done in 14 days. Thank you for your professionalism and I hope to work together again soon.

Dani Barbar Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Working with Loretta Barbar as my realtor was an incredibly special experience, but what stood out most is that she didn’t have to change a single thing or work any harder just because I’m her daughter. The level of care, dedication, and excellence she gave me is simply her standard for every client she works with. I’ve had the unique perspective of not only being her client, but also working alongside her, so I know firsthand how tirelessly she advocates for the people she represents. From patiently guiding first-time homebuyers through every step of the process, to skillfully negotiating to ensure her clients get the best possible outcome, she truly does it all. Buying my first home was an overwhelming and uncomfortable process, but she made me feel informed, confident, and completely supported from start to finish. Her professionalism, integrity, and deep knowledge of the market are unmatched, and her clients are always her top priority. If you’re looking for a realtor who will work relentlessly for you, communicate clearly, and treat your transaction with the highest level of care — look no further.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience! I am so proud that you learned the importance of investing in yourself and getting in the market at an early age! You learned that it is important to be prepared and know your budget, so that you were ready to jump on a great opportunity when we found it. Happy homeownership to you! I will always be here as a resource for you! Congrats!

Fantastic experience: Loretta Barbar is a very professional and talented real estate agent. She helped me find my home within my budget ensuring that it was available within my timeframe. She secured home, chimney, and sewer inspections to prevent future repairs. She was extremely helpful to the extend of meeting me in town and bringing me to the house to measure rooms and ensure that they were large enough for my furniture! This gesture will always be remembered and appreciated.

Fantastic experience: We contacted Loretta when beginning our search for a home in Ventura – at the time, she was doing the most sales in the neighborhoods that we were interested in. On the phone and during our first meeting, we were really impressed by how direct, knowledgeable, and down to earth she was. As a life-long Ventura local, she has great insight into all the neighborhoods and usually knew someone on any particular street that we were touring. During home tours she was a fantastic sounding board, always happy to talk through a home or neighborhood without pushing us in any direction. She has a deep understanding of the local real estate scene, and is willing to play the long game with her clients. She encouraged us to stay patient and trust our own instincts, while helping us to craft strong, competitive offers. When we finally found "the one", these strategies really paid off and we're now in a home and neighborhood that we love. Loretta always made time for us. She’s a very busy agent, but we felt as though we were her only clients. She was always available to strategize or answer a question, and we had many! Shout out to Loretta’s daughter Dani Barbar who was there to help every step of the way and is a great real estate agent in her own right. We wouldn’t hesitate to work with either one of you again. Thank you, Loretta!

Thank you for choosing me to help navigate your first home purchase. You learned a lot by asking many great questions along the way and were prepared to make a quick decision when just the right property came on the market! Part of the process is really digging into what is best for you in the long run and you made an awesome decision!! It was a pleasure helping you cross the finish line and now seeing you as a homeowner in the town you grew up in, close to family - priceless! Congrats and enjoy creating memories and traditions in your HOME!

Fantastic experience: Working with Loretta was the best choice we could’ve made when looking to buy a house, and going through with the sale. She’s so responsive, resourceful, and wants the best for her clients. I cannot recommend her enough. She’s really honest, and has been in the business long enough to know what’s best for a buyer. We are so grateful for her hard work, and dedication to finding the right home for us!

Thank you - I am so glad you were referred to me by a past client of mine. It was a pleasure to help your family buy your first home. As we learned along the way, being prepared and informed of your options is the best game plan. The first house - or 2 - we offered on, may have worked, but taking our time to choose the PERFECT home for you was the best decision! Welcome home - I know there are going to be many new traditions and special memories made at your HOME sweet home!

Fantastic experience: I recently had the pleasure of providing financing to one of Loretta's clients and it was a very smooth transaction. As a lender, it's always appreciated when you have a good and reliable buyer's agent to help guide and coach the buyer through the process. The buyer notices when we work as a team and it's a cohesive effort to get their escrow closed. In this case, it was even more important becuase the buyer's first lender dropped the ball and almost forced a cancellation. Thank you so much Loretta for being a rockstar agent. Cheers to your closing and your happy client for years to come!

Thank you for taking the baton at the last minute and getting us across the finish line. Your professionalism, prompt answers to any questions, and industry knowledge made the transaction smooth from start to finish. I hope we have the opportunity to work together in the future. My clients are so grateful you were able to get their loan closed on time so they were HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS!

Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough about the excellent job Loretta provided when selling my home and buying my new one. Loretta remained positive when I was tired “of keeping my house clean 1 more day!” Over several months Loretta kept my house in the mind of other agents so they could show my home as well as following up on those that showed interest. The fun began once we got a solid offer! I had been looking for my dream home for a very long time (years), and Loretta made me aware that contingent offers aren’t easy but not impossible. The timing couldn’t have been better when my new home came on the market and we both said “This is it!” Loretta made a great impression with the other agent and ensured them we had a solid deal and we were accepted. Her experience and creativity shined. When something seemed like a hurdle, Loretta jumped it with ease. Her friendships in business play an important role as she quickly called the experts: plumbers, chimney inspector, house cleaning! She had a number for everyone and handled it all so I could do my own work and lessen the burden. When we closed I knew Loretta was genuinely so happy for me. I would and will recommend Loretta to anyone and everyone. She will fight for you while being fair to both sides. She will handle everything so you don’t have to. Loretta loves her job even when it gets ugly and does it with a smile (really!) I would also like to mentioned Tiffany for your loan - and say that she works just as hard and knows how to make it happen. She made this experience easy and stress free. I appreciated the open communication every step of the way and also the sincere house warming. Thank you to Loretta and her TEAM who did open houses for me and Tiffany! It’s been fun :)

Kimberly - while it was a longer process than we hoped for, I was thrilled that we finally found the perfect buyer for your property. And then to have an even more perfect opportunity pop up at just the right time, was the icing on the cake!! As I said to you, good things happen to good people, and we were ready at the right place and right time. I loved being part of your dream come true, and so glad that you found our services to take the stress off of your shoulders (as much as we could!). It was nail biting at times to be sure all ducks were in a row and in our case, the timing had to be so perfect and it was! Congratulations - I know there will be many memories made at the new home as your mom watches over you and your loved ones as you settle into your dream home. Welcome home SWEET home! I will miss our daily chats and problem solving... now for coffee with Kimberly to catch up!

Fantastic experience: My husband and I met Loretta early on in our home buying journey. From start to finish the process took us nearly 6 years. Loretta was patient, knowledgeable, and easy to work with! She was always truly on our team. Once we eventually got our house, Loretta was quick to provide resources for home repairs and kept in contact with us. Next time we buy, we will definitely work with Loretta!

Thank you so much for your kind words. While buying or selling a home might seem like a straightforward transaction, it’s really about much more than just the sale. It’s about building a relationship based on trust, understanding your unique wants and needs, and being there to guide you every step of the way. For me, it’s never about simply making a sale—it’s about ensuring that my clients feel heard, supported, and confident in their decisions. Your satisfaction and happiness are always my top priority. I enjoyed keeping in touch with you on and off over the years, until the timing was just right. We were able to find the PERFECT home for your family, and that is what matters most! I know you will be so happy there, and I look forward to hearing about the memories and new traditions you create. And I can't wait to see the personal touches you add. Welcome home!

Fantastic experience: Loretta is by far the best real estate agent out there. Not only did she support our needs in finding the perfect house that was valued appropriately, she helped us get settled, as we made our move from out of state by connecting us with various tradesmen and amenities, even though they did not pertain to the transaction. She puts her client's interests first and goes to bat for them every step of the way. Our cross country move wouldn't be possible without Loretta's help. She has a deep knowledge of the area and the community and takes a lot of pride in everything she does - a winning combination!

Fantastic experience: Loretta was front and center during my entire sale of my home, and purchase of a replacement property. Three offers were made on my home, with the first two falling through within weeks of each other. The third offer stuck and went off without a hitch. A real roller coaster ride, and Loretta never failed me. Thanks to Loretta's broker/agency they found the perfect financing for me that afforded me more purchasing power to find the perfect place for me.

It was such a pleasure to assist you in both selling your home and buying a new one! It is not always easy to time it just right and get a contingent offer accepted, but we worked together and you were flexible and patient when things didn't go our way at the beginning. Fortunately, the extra time allowed us to explore financing options until we found the perfect solution. I am so happy you found a wonderful new home. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: Loretta was recommended to my wife and me by a friend. we found Loretta to be a wonderful guide with our home sale from listing to closing. She is responsive, always timely, and possesses great knowledge and expertise of the local real estate market. It was a pleasure working with Loretta and we especially appreciated her calm demeanor and ability to find solutions for issues that came up during the home sale process. My wife and I highly recommend working with Loretta for the sale of a home. It was a smooth experience from start to finish.

Fantastic experience: Loretta helped us sell our home a few years ago and her professionalism and knowledge during the whole process was so impressive there was no question who we were going to use when it was time to sell our rental. When we hit a snag in the negotiations, Loretta jumped right into action: making calls to multiple trades people to find answers - ALL on a SUNDAY. By Monday, late morning, we had some side inspections and a small repair done to satisfy the buyers and keep the process moving forward. Most importantly - we didn't lose the sale!! Loretta seems to have an endless list of contacts to get things done right and in a timely manner. She takes the worry out of the process. She is a valuable resource to have on your side. We recommend her to everyone!

Congratulations on a successful sale.

Fantastic experience: We chose Loretta and the Barbar Real Estate team to help us sell my mother’s mobile home in 2024. The timing was less than ideal and the home went to market just before Thanksgiving. I didn’t expect much to happen until after the new year. Even during the holidays the Barber team still did an amazing job with staging, photos, online advertising, tours and open houses. We had interest and accepted a strong offer before Christmas. The sale completed within seven weeks of going to market. Loretta kept us informed all along the way and went above and beyond to facilitate the sale. The Barbar Real Estate team is knowledgeable, professional, skilled, and positive. I would HIGHLY recommend them for anyone considering selling a property.

Timing the market and life's changes isn't always easy, but having a solid marketing plan and putting in the extra effort to ensure my clients receive top dollar in the least amount of time is always the goal. Working with seniors is special to me, and I understand the need to move at their pace and making sure they are heard and part of the decision making process even when family members are guiding them too. It was a pleasure helping your family sell your mom's home as she moved to a retirement home. Thank you for all the help and support you gave to your mom and coordinating calls between us, even though we were separated by different time zones too! Referrals are the best compliment and I am grateful to a trusted friend who referred someone she cared about to me as she knew I would get the job done with professionalism and the upmost care to the client. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: Loretta went above and beyond for us during our home buying process. We went into escrow on a home that didn’t work out and she didn’t pressure us at all. She was always available and very knowledgeable. She knows a lot of good contractors who gave us thorough inspections and fair prices on repairs. If we ever buy or sell a house in the future we will definitely use her again and I would recommend her to anyone considering buying a home in the Ventura area.

Fantastic experience: We recently purchased a house with Loretta and Resource Real Estate. As first time home buyers, we did not know what to expect. Sure enough, the entire process was complicated, intimidating and overwhelming. Loretta was the 3rd realtor we worked with and turns out 3rd time's the charm! Without Loretta's guidance we would not have made it to the finish line. Loretta made sure to hold our hands and guide us every step of the way. She made sure to advocate for us through every inspection (and there was a lot!). She was always available to us (all hours of the day and night), and she was always in communication with our mortgage lenders, which left no room for any misunderstandings. What we loved about Loretta the most was that she was never pushy, she made sure to steer us away from bad choices, and helped us find our dream home. I would recommend Loretta and her team for their excellent service, communication and expertise, 10/10 experience!

Thank you for sharing your experience- working with first time home buyers is so rewarding for us. Buying a home is hard but when you work with the right team to guide you, advocate for you, educate you so you are prepared to make a winning offer, and negotiate and navigate along the way (which can be bumpy at times!), when we cross the finish line together, it is all so worth it! Welcome home- enjoy making memories in your home! We look forward to watching you make it your own.

Fantastic experience: The Loretta and Dani Barbar Real Estate Team made the sale of our home a quick and easy process. Loretta definitely is the area expert and has her finger on the pulse of the market. The Barbar Team made things happen as soon as we were ready to roll.

We believe they made sure we received the highest, best qualified offer, in the quickest time possible and escrow was smooth from start to finish. Thank you Team Barbar, Great Job!

Fantastic experience: I had not sold a house in years and was in charge of selling my dad's house after he passed. Loretta answers all my questions from start to finish. She explained each step, showed compassion and professionally handled the sale of the property, reaching a sale less than a week after listing. Loretta offered resources we might need and communicated with me thoroughly. She gets an A++++ rating and I would encourage others to use her, without hesitation.

Thank you, Keri. We know it is a big decision to sell a home, and lots of emotions come along with the physical preparations, all during a difficult time. Dani and I are glad that "Team Barbar' could assist you and your family, and that the outcome was such a success, while welcoming a new owner to such a well-loved and maintained home.

Fantastic experience: My wife and I have been looking for a house on and off for about 4 years now and Loretta Barbar has been right there with us the whole way. We made several offers on houses, but were always outbid. Loretta never wavered. She just kept sending us information on houses to look at until recently we finally found one we liked and the owner accepted our offer. I have no proof of this, but I am convinced because the owner knew and respected Loretta as an agent that we were the offer he picked. Through this whole process, it was obvious that Loretta was very experienced and hard working. From finding us a house to selling our house, her professionalism was extremely evident. I hope we have our forever home, but if we ever do move again we will 100% be using Loretta.

It was such a pleasure to help your family find the most perfect home for you! It is all about timing, and we were ready at just the right time to make the move. A lot of things must fall into place when buying and then also selling a home; being prepared to jump in quickly when that home hits the market is most important, and we were able to do that even when it came available 2 days before you had to be out of town. So glad my team and I could navigate this purchase and sale for you. Welcome home! I look forward to summer bbq's in your beautiful backyard! Congratulations! And thank you for choosing Team Barbar to be part of this exciting time.

Fantastic experience: I was only casually thinking about moving when a friend working with Loretta and Dani Barbar to buy a home expressed great satisfaction with their work to another friend, Mary. Mary had told me of this friend’s satisfaction so I asked for the name of her Realtor. Instead, Mary had Loretta call me and I made a spur of the moment decision to start house hunting. I was in my third house living there the last twenty years. So, I have some experience buying and selling a home. With the current market I figured it would be some time before something I liked turned up in my price range. It was impressive to me that Loretta and Dani took the description of my desires in a home effectively so I was only seeing properties that fit my needs. We found a property that stood out to me four days later with me taking possession in a little over a month. While I updated my new place Loretta and Dani assisted in the sale of my old place. Again, with impressive efficiency and some guidance as it was 20 years ago that I last changed homes. So, this review is being written exactly two months after my initial contact with the Barbar team! Highlights were being able to move to an area of Ventura County I had long hoped to find a place. Although two months and a day ago I had no plans to house hunt the process was incredibly smooth and stress free thanks to the Barbar team.

We loved being a part of your move, Tom! Referrals are the best compliment! Working By Referral allows us to spend more focused time on our valued clients rather than searching for the next prospect.

Fantastic experience: My husband and I just bought our first home. Although Loretta was the seller's realtor, she was incredibly generous with my husband and I. She shared information about home warranty plans, helped us find a transaction coordinator, and answered our questions as though she were our realtor. We highly recommend her for her generosity and professionalism.

Fantastic experience: Loretta came recommended by a colleague and it was an amazing experience. She was very patient with us as my fiancé and I were first-time homebuyers and new to the area. She made sure to be sensitive to our needs and we never felt pressured. We tried to buy a home during the pandemic, which was one of the most competitive times to try to purchase. Loretta was extremely diligent in finding us a home. We are extremely happy in our new home, and we would definitely use her again. Thank you Loretta!

I am grateful for the referral, and so happy we finally found the perfect home for you!! A few offers were submitted along the way, with one getting accepted but not the right fit once we got through inspections… you were patient and ALWAYS prepared to jump back in at any time! And when the stars aligned… it all worked perfectly! And we had plenty of time to get to know each other and learn your wants and needs. Welcome home - I know you will love living near the beach and creating memories of a lifetime here. Congrats!

Fantastic experience: Loretta is the most incredible Relator, and I highly recommend her! We used Loretta to find our forever home in Ventura, which meant we were very picky and were not willing to settle. She worked incredibly hard throughout the entire process and was always available for anything we needed. She is extremely knowledgeable, and knows the market and local neighborhood details that only come with experience. Loretta is professional but also goes above and beyond like a true friend. We can not thank Loretta enough for successfully helping us find our family home and making the transaction easy and seamless.

Karla Jones Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Loretta is the best! I decided to sell as the holidays approached, and she got my condo on the market very quickly. The buyer asked for an extremely short escrow, and Loretta pushed timelines on everything to accommodate that - even going as far as getting a plumbing company out the day before Thanksgiving to replace the water heater. (and meeting them since I was out of town!). I had worked with Loretta to buy my condo 3 years ago, and she was just as good then. I would never consider using anyone else.

She has become a friend in the business and I am forever grateful for our relationship. Her work ethic and knowledge gives me confidence that every transaction I do with her gets completed. I have full faith in Loretta. We had a very difficult transaction and we were able to work together to solve several issues and see it to the finish line. Thanks Loretta

Billy, I am grateful you were the agent on the other side as this transaction was quite difficult and it required communication, patience, perseverance, and remaining calm until we crossed the finish line! You are on your way to being a very successful agent - keep up the hard work for your clients! It was awesome to work together and get to know you better - let's close another sale again soon!

Margie Shurgot Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Loretta is a treasure! We were selling the condo of an aunt who recently passed away and, as out-of-towners, really didn't know what to expect. Loretta came recommended from a friend of a friend, and right from the start, we knew she was a keeper. She was very knowledgeable about the Ventura area, the condo market, what we needed to do to prepare the unit for sale, vendor resources, staging, creative marketing and open house ideas, photography, financing options, inspections, etc. She handled absolutely everything and even made herself available to be there when new appliances were delivered. She was a great communicator -- we always knew where we stood -- and was easily accessible by phone or text. As a very experienced agent, she was great at evaluating potential offers and was able to close our deal with quick thinking, creativity, and expert counsel. Her professionalism, engaging personality, hustle, attention to detail, tenacious problem-solving, and integrity really set her apart. More than a realtor, Loretta became a friend. I can’t recommend her highly enough!

Loretta Barbar Real Estate Agent

Margie, thank you so much for your kind words. Referrals are the best compliment - and the relationships created from those referrals are so important to me. I looked back to the calendar and realized we only connected on our first phone call a little over 6 weeks ago! Our team accomplished a lot in only 6 weeks! Congratulations on closing the sale; it can be a lot of work for a successor trustee to handle, especially when you live out of the area. Surrounding yourself with a network of professionals to assist is the best decision! It was a pleasure to meet you and your family; I was glad that my team and I could be here for you during a difficult time - I only wished I could have met your Aunt. She made a sound investment many years ago, and took great care of her home. And now a new homeowner can begin to write their story. Thank you.

Eric McLaughlin Published on Google

Fantastic experience: When I first started thinking of selling the house, I expected a rather long and arduous process. Going through the process, I realized that planning each step of the way and being organized was producing the best results. I met Loretta Barbar during the physical house preparations phase. She was invaluable in providing advise, direction and confidence in completing the preparation and in the all-important staging and selling phase of the house sale. Loretta actually made it feel comfortable and virtually stress-free during the final phase of the selling process including escrow. So attentive and professional. Loretta kicks butt!! My most memorable part of the transaction was how Loretta was able to finesse the sale progress to an eventual $50K higher final sale price than was previously anticipated ! Nice ! Thank You Loretta, Sincerely, Eric McLaughlin

Loretta Barbar Real Estate Agent
Loretta Barbar Real Estate Agent

Eric, I am grateful that a neighbor suggested you reach out to me. It was a pleasure helping you and your siblings sell the family home. Having three sellers involved, two who live out of the area, isn't easy! But together, we communicated and made an organized and prepared plan to sell the home for top dollar in the shortest amount of time. I am glad I could assist by removing some of the burden from your plate and make the sale stress free (for the most part!). Thank you again for choosing me to be a part of the sale of your family's home. I enjoyed getting to know you and your siblings also. Wishing you all the best - and hope you can experience the buying side soon also!

Selling a home is not only emotional but there is a lot of physical work that comes with it too, as you and Sue learned quickly! I am glad my team could assist my removing some of the furniture and lightly staging before going on the market. Presenting the home at its best from day one, along with professional photos, and broker tour of homes brought quick interest! The escrow wasn't without challenges, but together we communicated with the buyer's agent and escrow company, and made the necessary progress to close on time! I wish you both the best and am so happy to hear you love your new place too! It was such fun getting to know you both during this process - and grateful for my friendship with your daughter that resulted in our connection too. Referrals are the best compliment!

Shreenivas Mate' Published on Google

Fantastic experience: We met Loretta in October 2022 at our house in Simi Valley for discussing the sale of our house. From the beginning she was very helpful in giving us the details of the sales procedure. She left us with various documents to help us understand the nuances of all the aspects of putting our house for sale. She was patient with us when we decided to wait until most of our belongings were ready to be moved to the house in Ventura. Loretta then discussed with us the influence on sales price of the current interest rates, and of the level of improvements. After putting the house on the market, she discussed the merits of various offers so we could decide which offer to accept. After doing that she explained the counter offers and things that needed to be done to bring the sale process to a closure. Throughout this process Loretta has been very professional, expedient without exerting pressure, and pleasant to deal with. We will heartly recommend her to our friends who may be buying or selling a house. Our best wishes to her in her business.

It was such a pleasure to work with you and I wish you all the best in your new home. Selling a home you have lived in for 40+ years is no easy task! Together, we got the house to show at its best to bring traffic and multiple offers - this sale was a win-win for all and the new buyers are so happy to continue making loving memories in the home too. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: Thank you so much, Loretta, for guiding us in our first home purchase. Amidst a competitive market, we'd almost given up, but your guidance and support landed us in a house, and one that has been perfect for our family.

Molly - thank you so much for the kind words. It definitely was a crazy time in the market, and competing against MULTIPLE offers was not easy. You were prepared and that made it easier to structure the best offer. I am so happy that you and your family found the most perfect house to call home. I can't wait to see what you do to make it your own, and I hope you are enjoying the wonderful neighborhood, exploring with the kids. Congrats again on your first home - may you continue to make happy memories together for years to come.

Courtney Robinson Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Loretta really is the best! We had some ups and downs during a volatile housing market with interest rates changing daily but Loretta didn’t give up. She is a hard worker, and always communicated-even when she was on vacation in another country! As part of our home purchase, we agreed to dispose of a lot of items left in the home for the seller. Loretta helped us arrange some large item pick ups and even ran a Goodwill drop off in her own car! We ended up with a really great home for our family, with an investment we feel comfortable with; and it is because of Loretta. We are very thankful to have her as our realtor and friend!

What a fabulous way to end 2022... I am so happy your family found the PERFECT home even in a crazy market. Thanks for hanging in there during some emotional and difficult times competing with multiple offers, and rising interest rates. This home was worth the wait. And now I have some wonderful new neighbors and grateful you were introduced to me. Referrals are always the best compliment, and when they result in a new relationship with an awesome family, it makes me truly love what I do. Congrats and I look forward to watching your family create wonderful memories in your home for years to come.

Fantastic experience: Are you looking for a relator who will answer all your questions, keep you updated on your offer, hold your hand through selling your home, and respond to you weeknights and weekends? Then Loretta Barbara is your person! We contacted Loretta back in January when we saw a few homes that we were interested in touring. Loretta helped us write very competitive offers on three homes before an offer got accepted. She sat down and went over all the counter offers we had and explained what they meant to us in a way that made sense. She got to know both myself and my husband and knew what really mattered to both of us while buying a home. Then we went to sell our current home. Loretta came over and walked our home with us, made suggestions on how to make it look better for showings. She helped us every step of the way. Loretta is very well connected in Ventura County and can recommend movers, plumbers, electricians, etc. and is able to help you navigate their busy schedules. It is also important to note that Loretta is very family friendly, and was very patient with our 2-year-old and 5-month-old during the entire process. We highly recommend Loretta for your buying and selling needs!

Congratulations and welcome “home” back to Ventura county. Wishing you much happiness in your new home. It was tough competing against other offers; being ready and flexible was the key. I look forward to seeing the home once you put your special touch on it. Thank you for the kind words too.

Fantastic experience: We can't thank and recommend Loretta enough for her guidance, patience, flexibility, network and knowledge. She helped us to a neighborhood that had not originally been on our radar but turned out to be ideal, and our new home has an ocean view from the front and expansive mountain views from the back! We're looking forward to enjoying the views, a great yard for our dog, and plenty of space for friends and visitors, for years to come.

I am so glad all worked out so well for you - the first homes we offered on would have worked, but finding this home was something special. A tough time to search for a home but being well prepared and a bit patient paid off! Enjoy the views!! I can’t wait to see how you add your own touch to make it a very special place to call home. Congratulations!

Fantastic experience: Loretta was a great help to us; very professional. Both my parents had recently passed. She helped my family, and I, through the difficult time of selling my parent's mobile home. Her knowledge of the processes needed to sell the mobile home, her connections with professionals who could make needed repairs, and her kindness during a sad time to my family and I, were excellent. I would whole heartedly recommend her to anybody who needs to sell or buy a property. - David Brookshire

Fantastic experience: Loretta Barbar was my friend and running buddy before she was my real estate agent. Sometimes during our runs she would tell me of things she needed to do in support of her client, or she would take a call during a run or she would rearrange her running schedule to meet with a client or host an open house. She made sure she was available to her client. Her clients came first and she did what she could to help them. When I started thinking about selling my house I knew I needed some time to get it ready. She never rushed me, gave me names of people who can do the fixes: handyman, roofer, pest control, etc. While I was getting my house ready she helped me look for my new place to live. When the time was right my house was listed, and since she had done her homework, several solid offers came in and we accepted one and opened escrow within a few days. We were also able to open escrow on my new house soon after and planned for both to close on consecutive days. She kept me informed throughout the escrow process and made sure things were progressing as we hoped. All the support for her clients she mentioned to me during our runs I got to experience firsthand, and it was tremendous. She reassured me when it was needed and she was my advocate throughout. Even though we were friends before, I know she treated me the same way she treated her other clients and that is with class and dignity. I strongly recommend Loretta Barbar for anyone who is looking to buy or sell a house in Ventura County.

Thank you, Rafael, for giving me the opportunity to be a part of your big move! It is not easy to make a move, and selling and buying at the same time during a pandemic adds its own challenges! But you stuck to the game plan, got all the "miles" in that were required, slow and steady, and together we crossed the finish line! I am so happy for you and your next chapter. Congratulations!

Fantastic experience: Had the pleasure of recently closing a transaction with Loretta who handled the seller and I the buyer. She was on her game! Had all her paperwork prepared in advance so as not to cause any delays, responded to texts, emails and questions promptly, and was always pleasant in conversations. She made the process easy-peasy and smooth! Looking forward to closing more transactions with Loretta!
